Would changing "See docs" to just "Docs" in the quick-ref column be acceptable? It's currently making a bunch of rows double-high for basically no reason
Mst of these categories are from a theoretical standpoint mutually exclusive but in practice even if Scheme can have side effects we still call it functional not procedural
I think the main thing I originally wanted to get across is that the instructions in CJam are run from left-to-right, and the instructions in Pyth form a tree, and the instructions in Jelly form chains, and the instructions in V are... um... well, that's my problem
But it might be good to include more detailed information
@Dennis Two ideas: 1) dictionary has more than three values in it, just those three happen to equal their index; or 2) somebody's used to programming in QBasic. ;)
@Downgoat I doubt that's the case here. There are also large if-else blocks or switch statement that can be reduced to a single case by setting the proper variable.
Incidentally, TIL that QBasic arrays are 0-indexed by default--unlike literally everything else in the language, which is 1-indexed. DIM array(5) gives you an array of six elements, indices 0 through 5. O_O
It's like they didn't want to deal with an off-by-one case in calculating the memory addresses (makes sense particularly when you consider multi-dimensional arrays), but they also knew people would do DIM array(5): FOR i = 1 TO 5: INPUT array(i): NEXT and expect it to work. So they compromised and did both.
I guess it does follow the principle of least surprise... but it also makes every dimension of every array one slot bigger than necessary, using up extra memory. Probably not a big deal except for large multi-dimensional arrays.
Yeah, a while ago at work I was tasked with rewriting some old VB code in C#. The code was pretty crappy, but I remember the indexing threw me off many many times
Quick question for you web wizards:
var mFile = event.target.files[0];
var params = {o1: mFile, o2: "foo" };
console.log(params);
$.post("request.php",params,function(data) {
document.getElementsByTagName("body")[0].innerHTML+= data;
});
why does jquery throw an exception when I pass params like that? If I do $.post(..., {key: "val"}, ...) it works
Reduction To bitfuck for non I/o languages, and I have a program that halts if a given CT program halts
not sure entirely though (of the CT program)
@betseg You will definitely need to account for the $ flags and stuff: could make it fairly difficult... perhaps impossible, because moving around the grid isn't reversible
so maybe not possible
hmmm, apart from the flags and whatever, should be good
@flawr You have the tag "lebesgue-integral", which seems to imply standard 1-dimensional Lebesgue integration, giving the result 0. But that's probably not what you mean, given the stuff in parentheses...
Can't we tag it with tips and slightly extend the meaning of that tag (which in its current state is pretty vague imo)?
Make tips be about making better answers for challenges of the site, which includes: learning how to shorten code in a certain language (which are most tips questions right now), learning how to write faster code for a certain language (for fastest-code challenges), and learning how to use a language in the first place (which would be the showcase).
I mean, that seems rather easy. If you already have a bijective numbering, then all you need to do perform a constant subtraction, and you'll maintain the bijective numbering
The Challenge
Given a CSV input, output a proper unicode table using box characters.
Formatting
The table will be formatted using the following rules:
Column width will be equal to the longest value of that column
All table data will be left justified
Each table will assume the first csv row...
I've decided it's best just to make sure you're clear on what people mean and that you don't start a flamewar yourself (although I agree, ASCII is totally a 7-bit character set)
they ended up making a breaking change as a result of it, with tons of warnings because it was a breaking change, but in the belief that people were unlikely to be regexing the things in the first place (and if they were they were probably listing them explicitly)
also, I went and installed a font pack a while back which was specifically intended to try to fill in Unicode characters that weren't otherwise easily available
I forget what it was caled
*called
DejaVu has the vast majority of Unicode, though, especially the older characters
Note that when the user just types in the hex literal, the interpreter auto-expands it, so I just escaped it and wrapped it in a ToExpression (i.e., eval) for presentation
do mobile browsers accept javascript: URLs? you could probably write a small JavaScript oneliner to do it, although it'd only last until the next page load
What's great about golfing is not having to deal with errors. Except this time you won't get off so lightly! I need to do some arithmetic with certain limitations, and I wan't to know what goes wrong if anything.

Wait a second... Money is the root of all evil. Therefore, money squared is evil. However, time is money. Therefore, time squared is evil. That means that Times Square is evil, so you'd better stay away from Manhattan!
All your dreams sound great. I just had a nightmare where my homemade kebab meat was raw and had huge chunks of cooked carrots in it so I couldn't keep it together to slice it.
TIL that a governor in Turkey discharged a doctor in 2014 because he said rice that watered from river Ergene caused cancer and that's why people from Edirne have higher chance of getting cancer.
