D: 0/10 the int is outside the for loop

Conor O'Brien

why is that bad?

ASCII-only

IDK

Conor O'Brien

I think it makes the code more readable--you know what variables will be used in the function

ASCII-only

I'd think putting it in the for loop is more readable

Conor O'Brien

so

bool prime(int n){
    if(n < 2) return false;
    int i, sq;
    sq = sqrt(n);
    for(i = 2; i <= sq; i++){
        if(n % i == 0)
            return false;
    }
    return true;
}

you'd still do it there?

yeah

It only works in C99, but it's way more readable and is local to the for loop

I think I figured out a decent form of memory management for Cogol2. Objects and subroutine call frames will be almost the same. The difference will be that object creation (the new keyword) will be placed in the first available empty spot in memory. Subroutine calls (the call keyword) will be "speedy-inserted" at the end of everything else, so that subroutine calls aren't bogged down by the allocation process.

"Freedom of Speech" simply means that the federal government cannot infringe upon your right to express yourself in a manner that is not dangerous, obstructive, or harmful to others. It doesn't say anything about any other organization (like schools).

When a person's words or conduct jeopardizes others right to peace and tranquility, he or she may be charged with disturbing the peace.

High school is far too unimportant to spend too much time stressing over. The college years are the important time - where you go to college/trade school/apprenticeship/whatever (or if you choose not to do any further education) will be the deciding factor for where you end up in life - but not in the way you think. Who you meet and interact with is far more important than being at the university with the best program for whatever, and you can't know ahead of time what connections you will make.

You wake up one day at about 40 yrs old say “My God! I’ve arrived! I’m there” but you don’t feel very different from what you always felt. There’s a slight let down because you feel there’s a hoax and there was a hoax. A dreadful hoax. They made you miss everything. We thought of life by analogy with a journey, with a pilgrimage which had a serious purpose at the end and the thing was to get to that end. Success or whatever it is, or maybe heaven after you’re dead.

But we missed the point the whole way along. It was a musical thing and we were supposed to sing or to dance while the music was being played.

Maltysen

paul graham's essay really come to mind

Dennis

@JonathanAllan I'm not sure I understand. Once len(links)==2 is true, the condition is fulfilled, so (len(links)>1 and leading_constant(links[1:]) won't have a chance to match.

Jonathan Allan

len(links)==2 or (len(links)>2 and leading_constant(links[1:])

i.e. make it unnecessary for the ...¤¦

make ¤ implicit in such cases (if it is possible?)

does that make sense?

Dennis

3:50 AM

@JonathanAllan Same problem. Once there are two links, len(links)==2 returns True and that's it.

El'endia Starman

@Maltysen Which one? He wrote like a hundred...

Jonathan Allan

condition = lambda links: len(links) == 2 or (len(links)>2 and leading_constant(links[1:]) would evaluate the rhs of the logical or when len(links)==2 evaluated to False

although I don't know how the rest would be implemented myself

or are you saying that the LCC counts as 1 link?

Helka Homba

Nevermind :)

Wait, Ctrl+Tab seems to help!

Maltysen

@El'endiaStarman haha true, the one that talked about school being a jail to keep kids around while adults work. I think it was called why nerds are unpopular or something

Dennis

@JonathanAllan Say len(links)==2 is False. If len(links)<2, then (len(links)>2 and leading_constant(links[1:]) is False as well. If len(links)>2, then len(links) was 2 before, so this is an impossible situation.

El'endia Starman

3:55 AM

@Maltysen Oh yeah, I remember that one.

Maltysen

@El'endiaStarman the problem happens when your parents are from india where I guess school did matter for them, so they don't realize it doesn't here

my dad actually did middle and high school here, so i suspect he kinda knows whats going on, but he leaves all these things to my mom, who grew up completely in india

Jonathan Allan

So you mean before as in before it gets to that lambda?

Dennis

@JonathanAllan The parser checks if the condition is true (and breaks if it is), pops a link, then repeats. It cannot pop less than two links because both conditions would return False, and it cannot pop more than two links because the first condition returns True once it has popped two.

Q: (KevinC's) Triangular DeciDigits Sequence

Input: A positive integer n which is 1 <= n <= 25000. Output: In this sequence we start with the decimal number 1/n. Then we take the sum of digits up until the n'th digit after the comma (1-indexed); followed by the sum of digits up until the (n-1)'th, then (n-2)'th, etc. Continue until n is...
