In 9th, a teammate of mine scored the same as me in the second round but he scored 53/60 in the first one. So he was assigned zonal rank 15 and me 16 π€‘
There's also nsfl...not safe for life, which includes violence, blood, gore etc. Familiar with those extremely gory images/videos circulated on WhatsApp? Someone accidentally forwarded one in our class group 💀
@Chemara That's cool, don't see the relation to SOF or what they do to the medals (maybe the place them in a showcase in some random corridor?), but looking at the bigger picture, it's more efficient to have those books available to everyone in the library.
@RajdeepSindhu our teacher never allows us to use encyclopedia section saying it's for seniors, fortunately I will be able to access that section from 9th
@Chemara Our librarian didn't let us go to the first floor even after we were in 9th π
Then again, no one really read "academic" books in the library in my class. Most read story books or opened some random magazine and talked about stuff.
@Chemara The kuch bhi doubt ho thing can be heavily misleading. Who knows, maybe you tell someone that and they start asking the folks here to solve a simple quadratic equation for them.
@Chemara I like those that don't just rely on jumpscares...both visual and auditory. If I can watch a horror movie with all audio except dialogues, background noise etc muted, and still be scared, then that, I think, would make a good horror movie.
@Chemara My dad used to read Hindi horror novels under a candle...till 3 am (or so he says :D)
Let $f(x)$ be a function such that $f(x-1)+f(x+1) = \sqrt2 f(x)~~\forall~x\in\Bbb R$. If $f(2) = 7$, then find the value of $\displaystyle\sum_{r=0}^{17}`[f(2+8r)-7]$.
My great grandfather , a spiritual man got curious and went to see through window and he saw the same thing, he recognised her as the bride who marriage was there , he doubted for something paranormal and quietly came and slept near my father
Ok so as my father tells me , my great grandfather asked him to sleep, holding onto him and not to open eyes and father followed his order
So the next morning there was crowd at that neighbour's house and my father found himself alone in the room (great grandfather went to the neighbour's house)
He woke up and he was going outside , my grand mother( my father's mother) held his hands and took him with her
So after 2-3 years, he came to know that the woman had committed suicide at the marriage place in kanpur ( dowry reasons) before 12:00 at that night
And I was just gonna say that the story was beginning to sound like a suicide, soul-trapped-in-the-human-world trope but I didn't want to sound rude :/
@RajdeepSindhu I am hindu by birth and my father also tells me to not be trapped in these religious superstitions but always pray to the power, the power that is beyond science , zero and infinite at the same time , even inside us
@Arjun It does. From what I've observed, there are plenty of people against organized religion out there who still believe in a god (not saying you do π )
@Chemara This. This is one of the major problems I have with religions/spiritual stuff. Vague, meaningless stuff like "zero and infinite at the same time"...spiritual jargon.
And a lot of things are beyond science. Science is, after all, a way to attempt to tap into the matrix of reality to make sense of the code...haan bhai original quote hai π
@Arjun I included it in my "to do" list of programs but no, I didn't do any work on a program that gives "smooth" random numbers. I did one for just random numbers.
@Arjun Same, this, with simulations and stuff.
After all, this was the stuff computers were made for π
@Arjun Thodi si depth mein socho aur absurd lagne lagta hai saara concept.
So if my smol brain recalls correctly, pseudo random number generators generate "random" numbers using some algorithms for which values vary a lot over small changes in the parameters.
A dice roll for example, isn't random. If you dare to, you can think of factors that affect the outcome of a dice roll...idk gravitational acceleration, velocity of hand, etc etc.
And science too, I think, is somewhat based on the assumption that things aren't too random, that they follow some "pattern"...which scientists thrive to find.
@Arjun A smaller version of it, most probably. I've heard that navier stokes has applications in weather forecast and stuff...pretty sure people believed that stuff was random for a long long time.
Bhaiya ab bahut neend aa rahi hai 🙂 I'll tell you how my "smooth random numbers" program works tomorrow when you have time.
Btw, there's this dude, Ken Perlin. I think he came up with an algorithm to give out smooth random numbers...sure, a couple of people could have done it before him too but I'm pretty sure his work is well recognized.
@Arjun I suggest you watch the tom scott and numberphile ones instead. This one is most prob gonna have a kuding approach...talking more about the implementation part than the algorithm itself.
I would really love to be able to create a program like that in the last video.
@Arjun well my cousin brothers woke up ( they were sleeping during marriage) and I asked them if they are interested in doing anything but they ignored me, so here I am
