!d decimal.Decimal if you wanna (possibly) get them to be equal

[royal lake]

decimal.Decimal

class decimal.Decimal(value='0', context=None)```
Construct a new [`Decimal`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/decimal.html#decimal.Decimal) object based from *value*.

*value* can be an integer, string, tuple, [`float`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#float), or another [`Decimal`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/decimal.html#decimal.Decimal) object. If no *value* is given, returns `Decimal('0')`. If *value* is a string, it should conform to the decimal numeric string syntax after leading and trailing whitespace characters, as well as underscores throughout, are removed:

[steady jacinth]

that doesn't handle complex I dont think

Hello, Is anyone here familiar with Fourier's theorem on polynomial real roots or just Budan's Theorem? Cheers.

[crystal spruce]

what about it?

[warped sentinel]

what would you ask these people if they happen to exist?

[strange iron]

I remember reading about that in a random wiki article but thats the extend of my knowledge

[lime oyster]

I am writing a sort of research work related root finding algorithm, so looking for someone who has a bit of idea about it. Let me know if you're interested Cheers.

[strange iron]

the knowledge of which i forgot about by now

[warped sentinel]

We don't allow recruitment

[lime oyster]

I am neither interested in paying someone or recruiting, I am stuck on a whole big problem so someone who has a lot of experience and they can probably help me on this. This is not a Python related issue.

[warped sentinel]

recruiting doesn't have to be paid.

If you are stuck or have a specific question about a non-python related topic, any off topic channel is fine

For instance, had you shared your actual question, you may already have had an answer by now

[lime oyster]

I would rather share it in private as it's something special and should be not known to anyone until released or published on arXiv.

[warped sentinel]

We don't do DMs either.
In terms of secrecy, there is no reason to trust any stranger in DMs more than in a channel like here

Especially if your question requires specific knowledge. Chances are if the person is able to answer, they would benefit from harvesting it even more

And in 2024, I hardly believe Fourrier or Budan have any such secrets

And in the context of publication that requires such secrecy, I would not help without making sure I am either paid or that my name is on the publication, both of which would not be allowed on this server

[lime oyster]

Pardon? I am highly unsure if you're true. I am working on something that uses it.

[warped sentinel]

Again, these have been extensively studied.
But good luck

[brazen ingot]

sure but what's the problem you'd like to talk about and its okay if you want hit a DM but i prefer asking here

is there a way to set all the microsoft office products on my computer (or at least outlook and teams) to always have a markdown-like text formatting experience, like Discord does? the unpredictable auto-formatting enrages me.

[zealous comet]

i don't think it does

[frozen crane]

I just imagine the Teams developers knowing that they spend all their time betraying other developers.

[zealous comet]

they just had to make something for teachers and other simple people that are having meetings have to use

There's something about my isp's dns or my DoT server that discord really doesn't like
I have to use a DNS changer app. So dumb

[timid latch]

wait a specific app to change dns? yours os doesnt just let you change it?

[lament cairn]

modern versions of Android (or maybe samsung's crappy rom, idk) will always use 8.8.8.8 and ignore dns settings UNLESS Private DNS is on (hence my DoT server)
but even with it on or off Discord doesn't wanna work with it

Tailscale's DNS override doesn't work either
I have to use a DNS changer app

sometimes I hate tech

[harsh tundra]

Samsung's crappy rom, as you put it, doesn't really allow to change the launcher app as well. When I did it once - and that app actually started Samsung's, it was only used for custom lockscreen - I couldn't start USB tethering in the settings, it was just greyed out :x

[small coral]

how would i fit a function's range of outputs to another range
like i have f(x) = 0.9 ^ x but since x ranges from [1, ∞) the values from it are [0, 0.9] instead of [0, 1]

oh wait i just figured it out nvm

[fringe rain]

Thanks, I've always used vim in vsc so I didn't know about the h command

[fringe rain]

is_word_constituent = lambda char: char.isalnum() or char == "_"

[willow narwhal]

Technically you'll have to look at 'iskeyword

[fringe rain]

True

I'm not sure I'll be having an iskeyword configuration though

Friday i was getting ready for the break which starts after work

I'd be half as happy

Albeit thats only the first few times and if it comes as a surprise

it's more based if school is off

[thick ore]

thats the flutter one i think

yea its basically tied to flutter and UI

[fringe rain]

Why? 💀

Ngl I feel like Rust just came around (got popular) and now a dozen languages are trying to get on top

Which is good in one way, but its all so mind numbing when technology moves so fast

||Me 10 days later: starts using gleam||

[tardy rain]

Isnt flutter a dart thing

Or are they porting it to gleam

[graceful basin]

I heard very good things about Gleam, BUT it was from erlang enthusiasts

but also there was the very cool graph of being 2x better than go

[fringe rain]

Better in what way?

[tardy rain]

2x cooler

[graceful basin]

more requests per second at a low latency

[thick ore]

gleam is like a nicer Rust

it's the perfect language

absolute standardization and commitment to improvement

like when rust analyzer was better than whatever they had made they adopted it as the official tool

[thick ore]

lmao

i'd use rust if it wasn't so low level

i wish it was higher level, and gleam is as close as you can get to that

maybe it's just me but rust doesn't feel all that verbose

[marble bay]

I still use python as my main language

[marble bay]

especially with completions, I feel like I don't write anything "extra"

[fringe rain]

well if you're writing super-conventional python code it will naturally be verbose (doc-strings, proper names, unnecessarily elaborate state machines, type annotations etc.)

I just recently updated my windows.

Today when I turned on my laptop, my data was lost as I reset my windows. My lock screen had the same wallpaper. Then I restarted my laptop and my Lock screen didn't have the same wallpaper.

maybe it logged you out of your windows account

What is the optimal block size for a miss latency of 20×B cycles?

This would be simply calculating the AMAT per block/miss rate, right??

So for example:

Miss latency (penalty) = 20 x 8
AMAT = 1 + (0.04 x 160)```

You would do this with each one, and then the lowest AMAT = The most optimal block size.

Correct?

[fresh basalt]

How can you tell?

And what do you mean by fed?

[harsh tundra]

federal agents, aka 3-letter agencies
they already did sneak backdoors into software (or made companies make backdoors for them). but since open source relies on users doing code reviews and others checking security, the backdoor is hard to sneak in and often includes some smaller changes first to later do a bigger refactor/"fix"

rant of glibc -> will make some people wonder if such fix is needed -> if pr appears, there would be people who actually thought about that fix (but that thought was "planted" by that twitter user and people sharing it), so the pr gets traction and gets accepted

normally PRs of menial stuff that aren't bugs or needed are just rejected

This is exactly what happened. People suddenly realized that intelligence agencies does indeed backdoor systems and everyone is still in the reaction phase.

I mean if Reddit caught the Boston Bomber then Twitter can catch the Feds trying to backdoor the softwares.

Back when the pandemic kicked off everyone was a virology expert. When the full scale invasion happened in ukraine everyone was a general all the sudden.

The way I see things, the people that yell the most are the least knowledgeable because the people that really knows usually don't talk about it.

The Feds don't need to feign their way into organizations like that. They can buy their way in.

He highlights that “free with advertising” has been a pretty big business for a long long time, in which there’s no indication that users were treated as “the product” or somehow treated poorly
this - from techdirt - is wrong, though. forcing people to watch or read ads is treating them poorly

and anyone being marketed to is absolutely a product

[steady jacinth]

I'm making a notepad, you may already know this. When you save a note I want certain notes to expire and get deleted after a while. But obviously I don't want every note to be deleted, so ideally I would want the user to choose if it expires or not. But how can I do that without disrupting the fluidity of the saving process?

[warped sentinel]

why asking Opal Specifically?

[steady jacinth]

that's a good question, idk

[soft violet]

I may have known that, but I don't really have much of a recollection of it. I don't always remember things.

[warped sentinel]

it's a great question for a thread or #software-architecture

[steady jacinth]

oh, that exists!

[warped sentinel]

some possible approaches are:

• Schedule a future task
• Use a GC approach

[steady jacinth]

???

[acoustic moss]

i think theyre asking a UX question

[warped sentinel]

are you asking a python question or UX question?

[steady jacinth]

what does UX mean?

[soft violet]

User experience.

[warped sentinel]

user experience

[steady jacinth]

then its UX

[warped sentinel]

ah nevermind

[steady jacinth]

that's why I mvoed to off-topic, since its not really pthon related

[warped sentinel]

yeah

indeed

my bad

[wheat quiver]

yo

[soft violet]

Your main application could do the checks. A daemon component of your application could do the checks. Your operating system might be able to be told to run something periodically to do the checks.

[wheat quiver]

sorry if im interrupting you. i wonder if it’s worth to downgrade from win11 to 10

[steady jacinth]

it wasn't about running checks, it was about how can I make the user select whether the note expires or not, without disrupting the flow of saving a note, which I want to always be 1 button or shortcut

maybe pressing ctrl+shift+s instead of ctrl+s would save it as an expiry

idk

[soft violet]

I actively avoid Windows.

Why would it disrupt saving?

[steady jacinth]

well right now saving is simple. You open a new note, type stuff, then press ctrl+s and boom, the note is titled and saved automatically

[acoustic moss]

could be a checkbox with a default

[steady jacinth]

where would that checkbox be?

[acoustic moss]

idk, some corner of the screen

[steady jacinth]

hmm

[steady jacinth]

"een"?

[acoustic moss]

._.

[warped sentinel]

I would replace the checkbox with a date/calendar thingy

[steady jacinth]

"r"?

[acoustic moss]

...

[steady jacinth]

I'm.... not going to do it again

[steady jacinth]

is it possible to do this in a clean and unobtrusive way?

[warped sentinel]

in general, you can use any widget for your default value and make it switch to a calendar component onClick

[steady jacinth]

or just adding an extra widget bar in general

[warped sentinel]

so you could have a Expires: never that shows a calendar on click

[acoustic moss]

sgtm

[steady jacinth]

thing is, people might never use the expiry, and then end up with a bunch of cluttered notes they don't need any more

[warped sentinel]

you could make it look like a chip or something. Or other visual cues

[acoustic moss]

expires: in 30d and show calendar on click

[steady jacinth]

or maybe I should have something on the note selection page

[acoustic moss]

maybe editable in both places

[steady jacinth]

I will be adding a "Properties" option when you right click on a note, may you could edit it in there along with the name

[solemn tulip]

the embossed border feels so 90s web

[edgy crest]

's'?

[limpid lynx]

gosh the date format

[limpid lynx]

those damn americans

[timid latch]

What html element would that be?

[limpid lynx]

you could set the default expiration time to a month and then add a red exclamation to the side of each note where the expiration date is unedited. once the user edits it or sets it to not expire, the red mark goes away, you should also add a setting to change the default expiration date for new notes

bro went on a research journey

Hello, could anyone with Android studio test my small beginner app ? I just need some feedback on it, like what you think could be improved. It won’t take more than 5 minutes tops. It’s only a 2 page app with basically one functionality. I can pm the zip file and the purpose of the app to anyone who is willing to help me.

[tranquil sleet]

[lament cairn]

#python-discussion message are the servers for PC Rust and console Rust different? @tranquil sleet

[tranquil sleet]

I honestly wouldn’t know

It’s like vanilla rust with basic multipliers

I got basic world commands also

[tranquil sleet]

So basically, i’m trying to just create a bot that would serve as what pc plugins do,
Right now every server has like $5 lr metal kit type shit; I wanna just create a good server and get sponsored by d11 down the line for the upkeep.
Pretty much everyone selling shit screwed themselves outta that kinda deal

[tranquil sleet]

But, if i were able to level the playing field in making a non malicious bot that can run servers like what Rcon kinda does, i’d be estatic.

Right now I’m attempting to just get it to utalize a couple basic functions, right now it logs into my console; and directs itself to it, from there It doesn’t wanna click the command prompt chat (which i thought api might fix instead of selenium)

And i don’t know if it’s properly reading the chat logs or not, but it wants to, and at least identifies the things i want it to.

[tranquil sleet]

I wish but read the first thing it says

[lament cairn]

Ok

[lament cairn]

whatever that server you're talking about is doing likely uses a proprietary framework

god my internet iis SLOW

yeah you're trying to make the emote wheel kits on console, right?

Oxides, mods, and RUST+ are not supported on the console version of RUST

[tranquil sleet]

Yeah on console version of rust :/

It is within the “command console” that it will take place tho

[lament cairn]

I have no access to the g-portal dashboard and won't buy a server for a game I don't own so I can't help with getting your selenium thing to work, srry
Server plugins would be the usual way to solve this b ut since they're not supported on console I can't think of anything else

[tranquil sleet]

“05/01/2024 19:14:15:LOG:DEFAULT: [CHAT LOCAL] UnlawfulActions : d11_quick_chat_i_need_phrase_format d11_Wood”

I have it identifying the date, time, “UnlawfulActions”, and “Wood” as variables
While the rest stay the same,
It needs to do these things with the information.
Date and time recording so you can’t spam kits,
Player recognition to know who to give the kit to,
And the material to know what kit to give.
And I can give you temporary access? There isn’t anything you can do to harm it

No way to upload files yada yada

I may be able to put cooldowns on kits in game also^

I respect Kendrick more than I respect Drake.

Excuse me, Aubrey.

It's interesting because they come from very different backgrounds. I wonder if that's what the beef is about because Drake is sort of a f-boy.

Why is this fucking spam back

[obsidian axle]

anyone here does cybersec?

[fresh basalt]

#cybersecurity

[fresh basalt]

#sir-lancebot-playground exists for this

[fresh basalt]

In future if you want to play bot games please use #sir-lancebot-playground

it saves the offtopic channels from bot spam

(and that channel was created for that specific purpose)

[harsh tundra]

I wasn't even the first who used it here. And this channel was fully dead when other users did that and when I did that

I just played one game to "continue" the trend, it was almost 5h from last activity - that was also the same game

[fresh basalt]

Would you do this in #python-discussion if it were fully dead?

[harsh tundra]

When pygen is basically-dead, people joke around and go semi-offtopic and continue joking and talking until actual full python topic gets found. So really bad comparison

[fresh basalt]

ok

There's a reason the bot commands channels exist though.

I don't really have the energy to police it though so do whatever.

[harsh tundra]

I was going to tell those two people (one of which played 2/4 games, 2nd and 4th - but you pinged only me, who played 3rd???) the same thing, but then noticed the absolute death and the 5h diff, so it looked kinda funny to fill the dead channel with logical games

Sometimes a ground of people will play in ot as well - it's fine as long as they're not interrupting any conversations

[fresh basalt]

I did ping the other person fwiw

I regret mentioning it at all.

[thick osprey]

Then it's probably best to just let it lay where it is. The command is available in OT. It can be run here. If it is disrupting active conversation then that's a moderation issue. 🤷🏽‍♀️

I'm still trying to figure out how it is played.

[karmic gust]

.dddg help

[median dome]

Compete against other players to find valid flights!

Each card has 4 features
Color, Number, Hat, and Accessory

A valid flight
3 cards where each feature is either all the same or all different

Call "GOOSE"
if you think there are no more flights

+1 for each valid flight
+2 for a correct "GOOSE" call
-1 for any wrong answer

The first flight below is invalid: the first card has swords while the other two have no accessory. It would be valid if the first card was empty-handed, or one of the other two had paintbrushes.

The second flight is valid because there are no 2:1 splits; each feature is either all the same or all different.

Tip: using Discord's compact message display mode can help keep the board on the screen

[thick osprey]

Well yeah, I could read that. But I was raised with the NES. We didn't read the instruction booklet that came with the game.

[fresh basalt]

Maybe you didn't.

[rough sapphire]

i lost my ubuntu password is there a way to reset it

[harsh tundra]

Only the other person who did 1 game. You didn't ping a person who played half the games by themself

[fresh basalt]

dude, drop it

I conceded, leave me alone

[harsh tundra]

I'm not a "dude" and you didn't concede before now, you only said you "regret pinging" which is only a sign you were annoyed and not admitting who's right

Can you solve this JEE Advanced question using Python?

mfw print(2605)

[limpid lynx]

"The code should solve the problem..."

[acoustic moss]

define solve

[limpid lynx]

find an answer to, explanation for, or means of effectively dealing with (a problem or mystery).

the program should find the answer, not you

mfw when i win an english related argument

[little sky]

Correct, print(1219) won't work

[limpid lynx]

so even the answer was wrong lmao

[acoustic moss]

[crystal spruce]

if you disallow stuff like that, then you're effectively just making a decision on what properties of the problem you are allowed/not allowed to use

[little sky]

Haha yes

[limpid lynx]

womp womp

pls no ban me

[thick ore]

hsp's answer is very concise

and outputs the answer

is also O(1)

[crystal spruce]

like say i have a 30 byte solution, but it only works if the problem is specifically 99 5's
is that allowed or not?

[acoustic moss]

this would be a more interesting golfing problem if the 98 was instead a number read from stdin

[limpid lynx]

i dont think that satisifies the question

[little sky]

You have to solve the exact problem

[crystal spruce]

that is the exact problem

as you've given it

[limpid lynx]

nuh uh

read
the
question

[crystal spruce]

if you mean solving a general case, then you have to specify that

the question says "99" very clearly

[little sky]

No general case just the exact problem

You can hardcode 99

[limpid lynx]

bro is seeing things

[acoustic moss]

yeah, bro is seeing things written in the question

[crystal spruce]

the solution would do the exact same thing as print(1219)

so it's just where do you draw the line between print(1219) and something you would accept as an actual solution

[limpid lynx]

did you solve the question using certain steps? the code has to do all of them

on its own

[little sky]

Suppose you didn't already knew the answer how would you solve it using Python. Minify that code.

[crystal spruce]

i would solve it using python by solving it with math, and then printing the answer

[little sky]

Then solve it using math and post the proof.

[limpid lynx]

thats not solving it with python, thats solving it yourself and then printing it with py

[acoustic moss]

that is a different problem

[little sky]

Then I will accept print(1219) as the solution. Trust me it's not easy to solve it using just math.

[limpid lynx]

really?

just the handwritten proof works?

[little sky]

Try it out!

[limpid lynx]

alright

[limpid lynx]

have you received any submissions yet?

[little sky]

Nope, but I have the my version of a good solution

[limpid lynx]

how many char is it?

[little sky]

131 Bytes

[limpid lynx]

ok imma try to do what i can

[acoustic moss]

i have a 117

[limpid lynx]

wow good job

send it here

[little sky]

Post it on the twitter thread

[limpid lynx]

i wanna see

[acoustic moss]

ill still die on the hill that print(1219) is a valid solution by the problem statement

R=range
S=sum(map(t:=lambda r:int(f"7{'5'*r}7"),R(99)))
print(*(m+n for n in R(3000)for m in R(3000)if n*S==t(99)+m))

[acoustic moss]

i dont use twitter

[little sky]

Oh ok I will post on your behalf, let's see if anyone can beat you

[limpid lynx]

will it take less bytes if we omit R and S and just do it in a single line?

not omit S, only R

[acoustic moss]

yeah itll work

[carmine apex]

of course. i was getting nothing, and suspecting float errors. not even decimal could save me. removing the division fixes it

[limpid lynx]

then do it

[acoustic moss]

omitting S will save bytes

but it also makes it painfully slow to test

[limpid lynx]

we need less bytes not more speed

[little sky]

I get that it is a valid solution and I didn't specify exact rules. But suppose you were given this problem and you had to come up with the answer fast. Solving it using math and just printing the solution will be very slow and time consuming in this case. Will update the rules. Thanks!

[limpid lynx]

print(*(m+n for n in range(3000)for m in range(3000)if n*(sum(map(t:=lambda r:int(f"7{'5'*r}7"),range(99))))==t(99)+m))

[acoustic moss]

using R=range saves bytes when its used thrice

[limpid lynx]

i see

[carmine apex]

wait why does python not allow assigning a variable to R(3000)

[limpid lynx]

its a range

(idk i might be wrong)

[acoustic moss]

it does but idt it would save chars

[carmine apex]

it doesn't work

[acoustic moss]

you cant assign a var to the iterable inside a comprehension

with :=

[carmine apex]

i used r for R(3000)
r is in the lambda

[acoustic moss]

ah

[carmine apex]

and yes, they're both 117. spaces required in the comp remove the savings

[acoustic moss]

R=range
print(*(m+n for n in R(3000)for m in R(3000)if n*sum(map(t:=lambda r:int(f"7{'5'*r}7"),R(99)))==t(99)+m))

is 113

but it recomputes S in each iteration

[little sky]

That's totally fine, not taking execution time into account

[carmine apex]

golly this is slower

[acoustic moss]

which im estimating will take on the order of a few minutes to finish

[little sky]

Very slow but seems correct.

[limpid lynx]

can you explain the f string

what is it and why have you used it here

[fringe rain]

I was gonna suggest R=range(3000) since they're non-exhaustive, but I saw the R(99) 😔

[limpid lynx]

this is not done by you

[crystal spruce]

i just wrote this

[limpid lynx]

joking

[acoustic moss]

f"7{'5'*r}7" creates a string of "7" followed by r "5"s followed by another "7"

[carmine apex]

"a few minutes" they said

[acoustic moss]

r=1 -> "757", r=2 -> "7557" etc

[carmine apex]

well it ain't done yet, and it's been 7

[acoustic moss]

i didnt actually run it smh

[limpid lynx]

whats the difference between f"7{'5'*r}7" and "7{'5'*r}7"

or would the latter give an error

[carmine apex]

the f prefix evaluates the stuff inside the braces

[crystal spruce]

!e

r = 7
print(f"7{'5'*r}7")
print("7{'5'*r}7")

Let me check if this correct and rigorous solution. But great job!
But this did take you more time than just brute forcing it.

to us regular people, the link shows "No access"

[little sky]

@crystal spruce you have mixed N and n in the proof.

[acoustic moss]

what is this pond you speak of

[hexed sierra]

highly sensitive pond

[carmine apex]

[acoustic moss]

N is 7 {5*99} 7

[crystal spruce]

i have, but that doesn't affect the validity of the proof

[carmine apex]

official leek from pond of ducks

[crystal spruce]

should be fixed

[limpid lynx]

the article sounds highly sarcastic, its like mocking people who overreact in public for no reason

[carmine apex]

stickie why is the second column of the chart flush left it's highly disturbing

[jaunty wraith]

both columns should be right justified

[acoustic moss]

wrong

both should be centered

[jaunty wraith]

no u

[acoustic moss]

no

[crystal spruce]

is this better

[acoustic moss]

aaAA

[carmine apex]

[jaunty wraith]

could be better

[carmine apex]

as long as the digit positions in 9315 are aligned correctly with the other numbers, then is okay

[limpid lynx]

what was the name of the tool which added semicolon to python

[limpid lynx]

this is triggering me

[carmine apex]

y

[limpid lynx]

left or center justification right is yuck

[carmine apex]

you prefer

47452
9315
71178
``` this garbage?

[limpid lynx]

its better than right just

[limpid lynx]

??

[carmine apex]

how can someone be so very objectively irrefutably wrong

[acoustic moss]

left < right < center

[limpid lynx]

just inverse right and left

[acoustic moss]

no

[limpid lynx]

yes

[jaunty wraith]

numbers being right aligned is the only sane decision

[crystal spruce]

diagonal justification when

[carmine apex]

okay. right > left > center

[limpid lynx]

nuh uh

[acoustic moss]

hm

i changed my mind

right > center > left

[crystal spruce]

this is chaotic good

[carmine apex]

also i misused "left justified" instead of "left aligned" or "flush left" and now i've infected you all

[limpid lynx]

me vs like 2 mods and a helper

[jaunty wraith]

so like, left < center < right

[little sky]

Can you explain that you will definitely have a solution given m,n <3000?

[acoustic moss]

true

[carmine apex]

having right on the left is more chaotic, tbh

[jaunty wraith]

so flipping it is lawful good

[carmine apex]

        c
         e
          n
right >        > left
           t
            e
             r

[jaunty wraith]

what

[acoustic moss]

??

[jaunty wraith]

center fell off

[carmine apex]

center being in the center isn't chaotic enough

[crystal spruce]

that's the "for the problem to make sense, there has to be a solution"
if the table didn't generate any values that worked, then that'd mean there's no solutions, if that's what you mean

[scarlet peak]

🤦🏽‍♂️👎🏽

are any of you left handed? tryna test out a hypothesis

[jaunty wraith]

sad kratos :(

[hexed sierra]

open a PR for the xkcd font in our latex header

[little sky]

@crystal spruce The answer could be no such m,n exist. This solution isn't very rigorous and gives guessing vibes.

[hexed sierra]

which reminds me my issue asking for amogi and ducks has not been addressed

[jaunty wraith]

you could do it yourself

[limpid lynx]

amogi?

[jaunty wraith]

or bully stickie into doing it

[limpid lynx]

plural of amongus?

shouldnt it be amongi

[carmine apex]

also sorta other diagonal, too, per cobra:

  g        t       f

r   t    e   r   l
        c        
      >        >

[hexed sierra]

i don't wanna set up all the testing environment to check it myself

[carmine apex]

little mountainscape, really

[little sky]

Also can you share the markdown?

[hexed sierra]

ideally someone that already has a test bot and server checks it first

[limpid lynx]

guys mountains or beach

[jaunty wraith]

neither

[carmine apex]

beach on mountains

[limpid lynx]

i hate mods

[carmine apex]

console player huh

[limpid lynx]

here comes the ban

[limpid lynx]

moderators

[jaunty wraith]

is that a thing?

[limpid lynx]

if you dump a ton of sand and water on a mountain then yeah

[hexed sierra]

do you have a test bot?

[jaunty wraith]

yes

[carmine apex]

bodies of water occur on mountains, yes. like a lot

[hexed sierra]

could you do it?

[jaunty wraith]

nah

[hexed sierra]

smh

[jaunty wraith]

naha ainky hoop

[hexed sierra]

i left all the instructions in the issue 😔

[jaunty wraith]

ain't readin allat

[carmine apex]

also technically hawaii is a series of mountains with sandy beaches that touch the pacific ocean

[limpid lynx]

are yall obese like the memes (joke)

[hexed sierra]

yes, that's how your mom likes it (joke)

[limpid lynx]

oof

[jaunty wraith]

it's also an island

[carmine apex]

yes

[limpid lynx]

tell me some simple but slightly difficult task to do im python noob

[carmine apex]

i suppose from a certain point of view, all continents are a mountain with a possibly-sandy beach that touches an ocean 🤔

[jaunty wraith]

even if you're below sea level?

[limpid lynx]

sea floor is sandy

and then the ocean is right there

[carmine apex]

mountains can have depressions in them. like mt st helens had a giant chunk kaboomed out of it after it went kaboom

[jaunty wraith]

why did it go kaboom

[limpid lynx]

https://tenor.com/view/volcano-volcán-vulcano-blast-burst-gif-21665328

then the opening solidifes and rain accumulates = beautiful lake

[carmine apex]

the rocks got too hot and wanted to leave, so they forced their way out

[jaunty wraith]

damn rocks

[carmine apex]

quiz: id the volcano

[jaunty wraith]

somewhere in Java

[limpid lynx]

bruh

[carmine apex]

aruk krakatau, yes. went kaboom in october 2018, then superkaboomed in december, destroying itself and making a big tsunami

[limpid lynx]

Anak Krakatoa is a volcanic island in Indonesia. On 29 December 1927, Anak Krakatoa first emerged from the caldera formed in 1883 by the explosive volcanic eruption that destroyed the island of Krakatoa.

[limpid lynx]

you beat me to it :<

[carmine apex]

the gif is from the october 2018 eruption though

[limpid lynx]

yes

i just pasted whatever the intro in wiki said

[carmine apex]

moyen had lucky guess. aruk is 46 km from java

[thick ore]

lol java

[limpid lynx]

very funny

[thick ore]

truly

[limpid lynx]

Ladies and gentlemen, prepare yourselves for a comedic suare of such lavish detail and verbosity, that it may leave you questioning the very fabric of humour itself. Once upon a time, in the whimsical hamlet of jesterville, there lived a linguistically adept squirell named sir chatterton, known for his verbous anecdotes. One day he embarked on a particularly elaborate tale about a pun loving hedgehog, an heirudite owl, and a grammatically challenged snail. The narrative traversed through linguistic acrobatics, captavating the audience in a symphony of laughter. As sir chatterton reached the cresendo, he declared "why did the semi colon break up with the exclamation mark? It just couldn't handle the excessive excitement". And in that moment, jesterville echoed with the harmonious laughter of linguistically enlightened merriment

dont call the grammar police on me

[thick ore]

oh dear we have a yapperton

[crystal spruce]

that's what i said
if no such m,n exist, then this method would be able to tell you that

[little sky]

Can you think of a faster solution than this @acoustic moss:

sum1 = sum([int(f"7{'5'*i}7") for i in range(99)])
num2 = int(f"7{'5'*99}7")

for m in range(3000):
    for n in range(3000):
        if n * sum1 == num2 + m:
            print(m + n)
            break
    else:
        continue
    break

[thick ore]

idk but the dsa guy from youtube told me that nested for loops are bad

[little sky]

DMing you to understand your solution better.

[crystal spruce]

please don't

just stay in this chat

[little sky]

Okay, can you elaborate more on this?

[crystal spruce]

actually i see what you mean now
you could use GPs to show that it'll work, but at that point you've basically solved the problem that way already

[little sky]

Yeah that's what. But anyways your approach would have worked in MCQ format. Good try!

[little sky]

Nested loops are bad if you can avoid them, in this case how would you proceed then?

[hexed sierra]

@crystal spruce morphocular's theta looking kinda sus

[solemn tulip]

an obvious improvement is

sum1 = sum([int(f"7{'5'*i}7") for i in range(99)])
num2 = int(f"7{'5'*99}7")

for n in range(3000):
    m = n * sum1 - num2
    if m in range(3000):
        print(m + n)
        break

I would be surprised if there wasn't some significantly better solution with some basic math though

[crystal spruce]

the general formula for S having r fives is 13*r-77 + 9

i realized after working through all the modulo stuff that the GP solution is like 5 lines

[solemn tulip]

what's even the original problem? 🥴

[crystal spruce]

i'll use regex syntax
define f(r) = 75{r}7, N = sum(f(i) for i in range(99)), S = f(99)
find integers n,m < 3000 so that N = (S + m) / n, and compute m + n

[little sky]

@solemn tulip

[little sky]

We shouldn't check if m is in a range. We can just compare:

sum1 = sum([int(f"7{'5'*i}7") for i in range(99)])
num2 = int(f"7{'5'*99}7")

for n in range(3000):
    m = n * sum1 - num2
    if 0 < m < 3000:
        print(m + n)
        break

[solemn tulip]

we shouldn't we?

[little sky]

m will always be a integer only

[solemn tulip]

so?

doing an in check in a range is O(1)

[little sky]

Never used range like this before so not too sure but:

https://stackoverflow.com/a/57933679/10373123

In python-3.x a range(..) is an object, it does not construct a list. If you perform member checks with an int as item, then it can do that quite fast. The algorithm is a bit complicated, since there are both positive and negative steps. You can look it up on [GitHub]. A simple algorithm with a positive step count (c > 0) for x in range(a, b, c) is something like:

x ≥ a ∧ x < b ∧ mod(x-a, c) = 0.

For a negative step count (c < 0) is is quite similar:

x ≤ a ∧ x > b ∧ mod(x-a, c) = 0.

If we consider the comparisons to be done in O(1) and calculating the modulo as well, it is an O(1) algorithm. In reality for huge numbers, it scales in the number of digits of the numbers, so it is an O(log n) algorithm.

This will be more costly than just comparison.

[solemn tulip]

comparing two numbers is also O(log n)

[little sky]

Yes for large numbers it is. Anyways let's benchmark the performance just to be sure.

[solemn tulip]

I'm not benchmarking this, I'm trying to make the overall algorithm just less crap

[little sky]

If comparison is crap, then all code in this world is crap

[solemn tulip]

I didn't say that

I meant the overall algorithm used
