@GamrCorps @Mego Why did you guys approve the edit that basically broke the title? Markdown and HTML tags don't render in titles.

Anonymous

@AlexA. Because I forgot that Markdown and HTML tags don't render in titles.

Fair.

@flawr True...

Significant figs.

I want to post a picture of Adam and Eve in here but most of them are a bit NSFW...

@Sp3000 sorry that it took me a year...

@Downgoat Your pull is not able to merge with mine? :/

sub 150?

@Optimizer yeah, I haven't quite been able to get to your prediction of sub 100 yet... (and that still seems unlikely... but who knows)

so much thumbs up

@Optimizer …uhh what

Retina, 72 is`(%let *(.*?) *= *(.*?) *;.*&)\2\.? $1$3 )`(&*)& $1 s`.*%put (.*);$ $1 Try it online! Should handle all the rules correctly? Passes all test cases anyway :P

This is really cool everyone go shower it in upvotes pls

oh guys first codename dragon answer

A: Golf the xth root of x

Codename Dragon, 16 bytes a=<>;dispa^(1/a) I'm abusing the lack of a syntax error. Ungolfed: disp((a=<>)^(1/a)) This is a simple program that takes input through <>. You can find an interpreter here, no github site yet.

@flawr bahaha

@Hurricane996 time to stop with the random character spam though, it's getting on people's nerves. Cheers :)

@NathanMerrill that sounds reasonably fun but only if the code modification is necessary to Turing-completeness (as in Brian & Chuck)

why are people so intolerant all of a sudden? Relax guys, it was not actually StackEgg.. we graduated for real

In actuality, I have aspergers, though not serverely enough to be official,ADHD, twice exceptional, Anxiety, an eye problem that messes with depth perception.

Anyone good at TC proofs?

@Hurricane996 oh! my bro has aspergers!

Diagnosed

Yeah

I exhibit symptoms, but barely not enough to be diagnosed.

I'm anywhere from 2 to 6 years ahead of my grade. This leads to awkwardness when I ask for my grade?

Oh, huh. How old are you, if you don't mind me asking?

I just posted a challenge with real-world application.

maybe you mean someone/somebody else

being awesome, being popular

@Hurricane996 why are you posting random nonsense?

@Sherlock9 That rounds to y digits after the comma, not significant digits.

Being awesome =/= Being popular

@El'endiaStarman Is what valid?

Oh, I just saw that was a link

btw @lirtosiast why did you change your username?

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ Why not?

Just wondering.

@Dennis What's the goal?

10:36 PM

@Sp3000 The place where you kick the ball

@lirtosiast it's not even an anagram :(

I didn't feel like having my real name as my username.

Of course, everyone can just look through the history to find who I am

@Sp3000 Rounding to a specific amount of significant digits. I'll use lambda x, y: float('%%.%dg'%y%x) for now, even if it doesn't work for big integers.

But I feel a little more comfortable here with a username.

You can see previous usernames on users?

@lirtosiast oh, the username is from cemetech?

I remembered it starting with an M, but my brain kept being dumb and going to "Martin"

@somebody I used it for a few things

What does it mean?

It doesn't have an intrinsic meaning.

Oh, okay.

I got it off a random name generator almost a decade ago.

@ArtOfCode I thought so. The only time I've ever seen "ta" used is by British people.

@Hurricane996 @AlexA. does that matter?

Since you need an email address to register, that's a clear TOS violation

I think I was 13 when I signed up. Probably.

@Dennis Fair enough. I'll keep digging
