Alex wants to come up with a system to encode program languages. They decide to set C=10.
From this, RUBY = 94 and RAILS = 94. What does JAVASCRIPT equal? #1023632039829831811

does this have to do with java?

noble ermine Oct 29, 2022, 2:21 PM

#

mild valve does this have to do with java?

Yeah

#

deft briar Oct 29, 2022, 4:54 PM

#

how does this relate lol

#

there is no logic ??

mild valve Oct 29, 2022, 5:10 PM

#

My guess is that we are suppose to find the pattern

#

how are these strings mapping to ints based on the given information.

#

hint: think about what it means to map C to 10 and what that might imply for other letters

deft briar Oct 29, 2022, 5:24 PM

#

arent there many ways and just hard to find the correct

mild valve Oct 29, 2022, 5:26 PM

#

It's pretty logical it just takes a bit of experimenting

mild valve Oct 29, 2022, 5:39 PM

#

noble ermine Yeah

if C is 10 what is A?

deft briar Oct 29, 2022, 10:59 PM

#

mild valve if C is 10 what is A?

thats the problem lol the quetion just has for c what about other, and i think its the programming languagges names and not a b c d

#

cause C and javascript and ruby are programmig languages

mild valve Oct 29, 2022, 11:27 PM

#

deft briar thats the problem lol the quetion just has for c what about other, and i think i...

okay so logically engage with this statement

#

if C is 3

#

then A is 1

#

if C is 7 the A is 4

#

what is going on here where is the pattern?

#

well if you can imagine a little bit, you can give a value to each letter in the alphabet based on where it's located. For instance, A is the first letter so it's value is 1, B is 2, C is 3.

This question totally frustrating me

mild valve Oct 30, 2022, 11:39 AM

#

noble ermine This question totally frustrating me

can you agree that you can assign a value to every letter in the alphabet based on where it's located?

noble ermine Oct 30, 2022, 11:40 AM

#

mild valve can you agree that you can assign a value to every letter in the alphabet based ...

I think yes

#

But not sure

mild valve Oct 30, 2022, 11:41 AM

#

noble ermine I think yes

Okay, saying A is 1 B is 2 C is 3 and so on isn't such an outlandish idea yeah.

#

You do this in Java when indexing an array

#

It's index is the value based on where it's located in that array

noble ermine Oct 30, 2022, 11:42 AM

#

Tbh ,i am beginner

mild valve Oct 30, 2022, 11:42 AM

#

ah okay

noble ermine Oct 30, 2022, 11:42 AM

#

I am totally confused with this question

mild valve Oct 30, 2022, 11:42 AM

#

okay so giving that each letter has a value

#

A is 1 B is 2 C is 3

noble ermine Oct 30, 2022, 11:42 AM

#

I'm grateful if you could help

mild valve Oct 30, 2022, 11:42 AM

#

All the way up to Z

noble ermine Oct 30, 2022, 11:42 AM

#

Ok

mild valve Oct 30, 2022, 11:42 AM

#

All they did was add four to all the values

#

4

#

since C is 7

noble ermine Oct 30, 2022, 11:43 AM

#

But in question they given c 7 ?

mild valve Oct 30, 2022, 11:43 AM

#

A must be 5

#

B must be 6

noble ermine Oct 30, 2022, 11:43 AM

#

Ok

mild valve Oct 30, 2022, 11:43 AM

#

that that's all they did

#

and then they give you a word assuming you see it as addition

#

and all you're doing is adding each of the letters up

#

based on their new values

noble ermine Oct 30, 2022, 11:44 AM

#

Oh

mild valve Oct 30, 2022, 11:46 AM

#

noble ermine But in question they given c 7 ?

You kind of have to do some logic bridging there, since they don't explicitly say all the other letters are given values you just have to infer.

noble ermine Oct 30, 2022, 11:46 AM

#

You mean
R + U + B + Y = 94?

mild valve Oct 30, 2022, 11:47 AM

#

yep

noble ermine Oct 30, 2022, 11:47 AM

#

Oh then ,it's interesting

#

Yeah i have solved play cipher codes before that

#

I think let's assign
A = 3
B = 5

mild valve Oct 30, 2022, 11:51 AM

#

not sure that's what you want to do but go for it

#

with questions like these it's all about coming up with your own logic and seeing if it's applicable

noble ermine Oct 30, 2022, 11:52 AM

#

mild valve not sure that's what you want to do but go for it

It's more than 95 if i assign a = 3

mild valve Oct 30, 2022, 11:52 AM

#

noble ermine It's more than 95 if i assign a = 3

yeah

mild valve Oct 30, 2022, 11:52 AM

#

mild valve A must be 5

this is completely wrong lol

#

you are adding 7 to each of the values

#

that's why C is 10

#

because it

#

the 3rd letter and 7 + 3 is 10

noble ermine Oct 30, 2022, 11:53 AM

#

I realised

mild valve Oct 30, 2022, 11:53 AM

#

so it would be (A, 8), (B, 9) (C, 10) and so on

noble ermine Oct 30, 2022, 11:53 AM

#

C = 10

#

I have assigned c = 7

#

Sorry

#

Let me try

#

Bro ty

#

It's working

mild valve Oct 30, 2022, 11:56 AM

#

yep no problem

noble ermine Oct 30, 2022, 11:56 AM

#

Let me try for rails

#

@mild valve ty so much bro ,it's working

mild valve Oct 30, 2022, 12:01 PM

#

great, glad to help. if thats all you can close the channel using /unreserve
