@zʏᴀʙiɴ101 you can add some catalogue answers
hi @DestructibleWatermelon
\o/ i have been disconnected from github and lost my edit on your mom wiki
 
Another great one from Math With Bad Drawings: Why Not to Trust Statistics.

A: "Hello, World!"

zyabin101Your Mom, 14 bytes 'Hello, World! Explanation '... '... - Push the string. The ending ' is not needed at the end of program - Implicit output

 
11:10 AM
About that why not to trust stats
I saw a much better example of that
So, you have a drug in trialling
And the results say people who had the drug were more likely to recover than those not
but, the individual gendered results say the opposite of this
 
very interesting (french :( ) video about that: youtube.com/watch?v=vs_Zzf_vL2I
 
because men are more likely to recover than women, they gave the drug mostly to men.
 
@DestructibleWatermelon Simpson's Paradox?
 
exactly the subject of the video
 
11:13 AM
Simpson's Paradox isn't as common a misuse of statistics as the examples in that blog post.
 
or is it? <_<
 
dun dun dun!
isn't there like, a triple mean thing for more accurate results?
 
i am back
 
I don't know how to port this Python code:
>>> for n in range(2, 10):
...     for x in range(2, n):
...         if n % x == 0:
...             print n, 'equals', x, '*', n/x
...             break
...     else:
...         # loop fell through without finding a factor
...         print n, 'is a prime number'
...
to your mom.
 
11:26 AM
for now there is no range operator D:
 
what is a good char for the range operator ?
 
R
 
i dont use alphabetic chars because your mom use base 24
i think apl iota is good
 
What chars are legal, then?
 
11:27 AM
every unicode char other than alphanumeric
APL use so i use
 
could you not make something that checks if a variable is a certain amount, and then executes the code otherwise?
to do the same thing
 
inclusive or exclusive range (II, EE, IE, EI) ?
@DestructibleWatermelon =(<code here>;)@
 
U+00AE then
®
 
and then loops, and increments the variable?
 
@TùxCräftîñg IE.
 
11:32 AM
 
@flawr can you please stop posting plane crash ;_;
 
I still don't get how the shadown and the actul plane fi together.
 
@TùxCräftîñg Erm, I wanted the range [start, end).
If you want to add it, add a separate command and leave ® intact.
 
[ is exclusive and ( is inclusive, right ?
or i am wrong ?
 
11:39 AM
how do you loop in this language?
 
@DestructibleWatermelon @ pop a function and execute it while peeking the TOS yield a value other than 0
 
As in,
>>> range(10)
[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
 
but the function gets popped...
oh wait, nvm
 
@DestructibleWatermelon ¥(#_)@ will print 0 indefinitevely for example (best orthograph ever)
 
I wonder if it's turing complete...
 
11:41 AM
@DestructibleWatermelon it's turing complete
(i think)
 
@DestructibleWatermelon Your Mom can emulate brainfuck
 
@TùxCräftîñg I get the feeling this could attract some out of context flags...
 
I like how one of BFs main functions is just being a turing complete language
 
11:43 AM
@ArtOfCode D:
yesterday, by mbomb007
I think someone should create a language called "Your Mom", just so that during an argument over which language is a better one, they can interject that "Your mom is a better language"
@ArtOfCode v
 
imagine this conversation though
"Your language isn't turing complete! It can't emulate Brainfuck"
 
> Jelly is the best language! Your mom is better.
xD
 
"Your mom can't emulate brainfuck!"
 
yes it can ._.
my connection is slow
really slow
> L is Turing complete because it is possible to convert a brainfuck program to L
the lazyest turing-completeness proof
 
12:02 PM
@TùxCräftîñg second laziest: creating a brainfuck interpreter
 
Well, now that we have our range function, let's try to implement a primality test with it.
>>> for n in range(2, 10):
...     for x in range(2, n):
...         if n % x == 0:
...             print n, 'equals', x, '*', n/x
...             break
...     else:
...         # loop fell through without finding a factor
...         print n, 'is a prime number'
...
 
for loops dont exists, there is only while loops
 
Then, we implement a for loop in terms of while loops.
 
Hey guys

Do you mind, tux if I use some of that regex codes on the ultimath repo?
Credit is given
 
@Midnightas my projects are licensed CC0, so feel free to use it
but if you give credits this is cool ;)
 
12:17 PM
Hooray, thanks!
I will :D
My Internet money is running out, so bye D:
 
@TùxCräftîñg we still have to get a for loop in terms of while loops working in your mom.

You said that there are no for loops.
 
you can use a counter and a while loop
 
12:24 PM
How exactly? :3
 
i = x
while i > 0:
    <code>
    i += 1
you just have to translate it in your mom
but idk the your mom equivalent
but it's simple to transform
 
-._(._.)_.- Whatever.
 
(<test>):$(<code>;:$)@;
untested
but here is the idea

12:48 PM
mmh, do we have no tag for questions related to "outputting a program's own source code"
 
ven
@TùxCräftîñg thanks!
how do your pronounce that btw? :c
 
@ven kwajn in IPA
 
ven
@TùxCräftîñg thanks
 
1:01 PM
@TùxCräftîñg apart from that?
urbit isn't exactly what i'm looking for
especially since i can't use it
 
so idk
hi @Poke
 
hi
 
@Poke mon
 
@zʏᴀʙiɴ101 msg.replace(/$/, ' GO')
 
s/GO/Red/
pkmn red is the best
like emacs
 
1:06 PM
@zʏᴀʙiɴ101 mon
emacs is the best if you ignore vim
 
help is anyone good at server architecture
 
@MᴀʀsUʟᴛᴏʀ s/GO//
 
s/^s\/GO/s\/ GO/
 
@TùxCräftîñg Weird, I pronounce it more like /kwaɪn/
 
@LegionMammal978 i have trusted this converter
because idk IPA and idk how to exactly pronounce english
35°C ;_;
 
1:13 PM
kwajn is right I'm pretty sure
kwaɪn would be close but too much emphasis on an ɪ sound
 
hurray for unicode
 
@TùxCräftîñg I just used Wikipedia's description of the symbols, also see this, this, this‌​, and this (set to IPA)
 
1:29 PM
okay
 
Isn't it pronounced like "nine" but with qu instead?
 
@BusinessCat it's exactly that

How do you do full width text?
 
2:33 PM
@Optimizer I start to understand why they said there were lots of spam in this chat

Enough with the Pokespam.
Please.
 
Chat flags are serious matter, please don't use them to flag pictures of pokemon
 
@Quill Have you seen the chat history?
 
@Quill I didn't flag anything, but I will flag pictures of Pokemon if they become obnoxious in my opinion regardless of whether you say I should or not.
4
 
and I will decline them every time
 
2:37 PM
That's your prerogative
 
Enough is enough @Matthew @Tux, if you want to continue looking at these pokemon photos, take it to a new room
 
i have stopped
 
user214599
M3 T00
 
I only did one pic.
 
@Rainbolt I'm not telling you it's not an issue, because it is, but using the normal flags is likely to do nothing but annoy the users on the other end. Leaving a moderator flag with a short desc of the situation generally guarantees someone to to take the time to help you guys out
 
2:41 PM
best practice concerning semicolons in sql sprocs?
 
The flag is for spam or offensive messages. Someone in the room thinks it is spam. You don't. Your opinion carries a little more weight than a normal chat user because of your moderatorship, and I respect that as long as you don't decide that suddenly everyone else should have the same opinion.
Just decline the flag and say you don't think it has reached the level of "spam".
@Poke I read somewhere that eventually they will be required. Merge statements require them anyway, so I always use them
 
Jeez what happened to this room
Looks like a Pokemon dirty bomb went off
 
> Although the semicolon is not required for most statements in this version of SQL Server, it will be required in a future version.
 
ok cool. thanks guys
 
@quartata It sums it up, the effects lasted for far more than one hour ^^
 
2:46 PM
@quartata you lost your opportunity to say 'pokebomb'
 
it amazing how bad of an architect I am
 
        } catch (error){
            console.log("AN ERROR OCCURRED, U DONE MESSED UP. FIX IT NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW FIXED IT NOW! " + error)
            throw error;
        }
._.
 
Yeah, Downgoat is really good at error messages
 
that was my code :)
 
for some reason, I thought it would be a good idea to enforce "1 location per item"
aka, you couldn't put the same "Wall" object in 20 different locations
 
2:47 PM
@Rainbolt meh, normal flags should be context less, and expecting users to check the context of a flagged post in order to understand how offensive / bad it was is a really nice thought, but a sad limitation of the system
 
@Quill Clearly your time here has corrupted your CR ideals
 
Geez. My Facebook feed is entirely Pokemon, Trump memes, and <something> lives matter
 
a moderator flag generally expects the moderator to intervene, not just decide how to vote
@quartata something like that, not that clean code and golfing have to be exclusive events
 
@Rainbolt Necrophile's wife lives matter!
 
@LegionMammal978 We couldn’t find any code matching 'AN ERROR OCCURRED, U DONE MESSED UP.' Where was it?
 
2:52 PM
function a()a,b,c=c,a,b end
function b()a,b,c=b,c,a end
function c() --[[do some useful stuff]] end
 
@Katenkyo Lua? :3
 
@zʏᴀʙiɴ101 Yes, I discovered that you can organise a rotation of your functions' names :D
 
That is sickening
 
One true usage of this is string.gsub,print=print,string.gsub but way less funny, as it's not written in the function themselves ^^

@LegionMammal978 that's the 4th one

user214599
Could there be a program that prints "Hello, World!" and prints "Hello, World!" when reversed too?(Without Builtins Like Help, Wardoq and HQ9+)
 
Probably in Stack Cats
I don't know much about it, but every program has to be a palindrome
 
@BusinessCat Every program has to be symmetric.
Not just a palindrome.

Q: Palindrome Hello, World

user45510Your task is to create a program that prints "Greetings, Planet!" exactly to the console. Seems simple enough, right? Well, here's the trick. The code must be a palindrome, meaning it reads from right to left the same as in left to right. Standard loopholes are NOT allowed.

 
3:10 PM
Every answer is just <code to print hello world><comment><backwards code to print hello world>

LegionMammal978Mathematica, 52 bytes Print@"Greetings, Planet!""!tenalP ,sgniteerG"@tnirP Also generates a Null "!tenalP ,sgniteerG"[tnirP] which doesn't get printed.

hello
 
Oh nice, both Suits and Mr. Robot premiere today.
 
you are all AESTHETIC
 
Great job you guys who posted Pokémon pictures - you turned half the transcript into pure noise.

@Fatalize This is actually mostly why I let another instance slide the last time it happened (yesterday, I think). This time was just too much though. Literally half the transcript was taken up by (relatively) big one-boxes of Pokémon pictures.
I wish I had been here a few hours ago. I coulda nipped it in the bud and sent people to another room.
 
@El'endiaStarman Pokémon GO really got a strong effect on some people :p
