I feel like multidimensional is C# specific

Jagged array

In computer science, a jagged array, also known as a ragged array, is an array of arrays of which the member arrays can be of different sizes, producing rows of jagged edges when visualized as output. In contrast, C-styled arrays are always rectangular. Arrays of arrays in languages such as Java, Python (multidimensional lists), Ruby, Visual Basic.NET, Perl, PHP, JavaScript, Objective-C, Swift, and Atlas Autocode are implemented as Iliffe vectors. == Examples == In C#, jagged arrays can be created with the following code: In C++/CLI, jagged array can be created with the code: In Python, jagged...

> In Python, jagged arrays are not native but one can use list comprehensions to create a multi-dimensional list which supports any dimensional matrix

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

multidimensional applies to pretty much everything

Dr Green Eggs and Iron Man

@DrGreenEggsandIronMan Whoever wrote that was very very wrong.

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

how many close votes?

ThreeFx

Only 10 more rep and I can do that too :D

What animal is bulbasaur based on? Squirtle is a turtle. Charmander is a lizard. Pikachu is a mouse.

Dr Green Eggs and Iron Man

And gareth

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@HelkaHomba plant

specifically turtle + bulbed plant

ThreeFx

Bulbasaur appears to be based primarily on some form of reptile, specifically mammal-like reptiles known as Dicynodonts from the Permian period.

I thought you head-quoted that >_>

Dr Green Eggs and Iron Man

Actually, socratic is the badge I really want.

Harder to do.

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

basically, ask 100 well received questions?

Helka Homba

@DrGreenEggsandIronMan speak for yourself ;)

Dr Green Eggs and Iron Man

Yes, but if you ask 2 question on the same day, that only counts as one.

@HelkaHomba witty retort

ThreeFx

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ Biology was never my subject

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

oh haha

Dr Green Eggs and Iron Man

I'm at 50... :/

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

27/100 for socratic

27 / 28 of my questions are well received. not bad.

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

lel my meta question score is pitiful

ThreeFx

How much rep do I need to see the up and downvotes of questions and answers?

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

you can get a userscript to do that for you

Dr Green Eggs and Iron Man

11:15 PM

750, but it'll go up ~~soon~~ before the heat death of the universe.

to 1,000

Helka Homba

heh

> soon

Dr Green Eggs and Iron Man

@HelkaHomba FTFY

ThreeFx

see no difference

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

chat mini challenge: given numbers A1...AN, create an array of those dimensions filled with a number of your choice. You may assume all AK are >= 1. For example, 4 3 2 would yield (for choice of 0 as a fill element):

ThreeFx

isn't that APL's Rho?

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

11:17 PM

yes, it is

also J's $

ThreeFx

Then I choose APL ;P

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

let's see some code >_>

Dr Green Eggs and Iron Man

V, 12 bytes: Ài0 ÀÄOÀäG

ThreeFx

well the haskell type system prohibits me from doing this but I would just do: f = foldr 0 replicate

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

what about the type system?

ThreeFx

11:19 PM

It requires dependent types since the type of the multidim. array depends on the length of the input list

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@DrGreenEggsandIronMan I count 5 not 4

@ThreeFx ah, I see

ThreeFx

Now that I think about it it is pretty difficult to implement this in a strongly and statically typed language

Dr Green Eggs and Iron Man

Whoops, 13 bytes: Ài0 ÀÄOdGÀp

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@DrGreenEggsandIronMan same thing with the second argument

Dr Green Eggs and Iron Man

ಠ_ಠ

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

11:21 PM

and pedantically they are backwards but that's okay

Dr Green Eggs and Iron Man

V doesn't have arrays so idc

Alright, last time.

15 bytes: Ài0 ddÀpOdGÀp

ThreeFx

So there actually is a project to implement apl operators in haskell but it's kinda not good for code golf :D

I pass

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

haha what a coincidence. I'm implementing J operators in JavaScript

Dr Green Eggs and Iron Man

I should make À be "repeat" instead of "duplicate". Right now 2À will duplicate it twice for a total of 3.

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

not a bad idea

Dr Green Eggs and Iron Man

11:25 PM

Sorry, Ä not À

For example, this: v.tryitonline.net/…

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

ah

ThreeFx

is js dynamically tyed or how do you deal ith the different return types?

Dr Green Eggs and Iron Man

If I want it to be "arg" times instead of "arg + 1" times, it is 4 bytes: v.tryitonline.net/…

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

dynamically typed.

@DrGreenEggsandIronMan that may be a problem

ThreeFx

Another reason not to use it :D

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

11:28 PM

@ThreeFx ಠ_ಠ

Downgoat

@DrGreenEggsandIronMan what does À do?

ThreeFx

I'm kinda on the strong static and failsafe (ok let's eliminate bottom) type system rather than any dynamic magic. Expected after I learned C# and Haskell

Dr Green Eggs and Iron Man

@Downgoat It does two things. How familiar with vim macros/registers are you?

Downgoat

after that article you've posted I'm rather familiar with them

Dr Green Eggs and Iron Man

time to watch the jak & daxter vod

Dr Green Eggs and Iron Man

@Downgoat So, at startup time, V loads arg1 into register 'a', arg2 into register 'b', etc. À is the @a the first time, @b the second time etc.

orlp

lmk when bethesda is on

Dr Green Eggs and Iron Man

11:31 PM

If the register holds a number, it works as an operator count.

ThreeFx

bout 40 minutes or so

Downgoat

@DrGreenEggsandIronMan wait what does "first time" mean?

Dr Green Eggs and Iron Man

Also, if you want to understand the design of À, try opening vim and inserting alt+@.

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@Downgoat how would I go about implementing this in JavaScript?

I'm just not motivated enough to fix it.

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ in the CMC

@DrGreenEggsandIronMan it looks like it continues to print incrementing chat codes but why are some blank

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@Downgoat but where in the order

Downgoat

oh nvm I get it

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ recursion and each time it recurses pop an item and do Array(ar.pop()).fill(0) and place that in each array recursively

idk

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

11:39 PM

ok

ThreeFx

Doesn't JS have a replicate function for arrays?

Like new Array(sourceToBeReplicated, count)

Because it gets easier that way @CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ

Downgoat

Array(count).fill(source)

@ThreeFx ^

ThreeFx

Oh. i was confused by the pop. Time to stop trying to think now, I think

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

but you're still thinking

cheddar> var add = (a,b) -> a + b;

@orlp There's the ME run

LegionMammal978

@Downgoat, so I should just convert the entire library into an stdlib class?

Dr Green Eggs and Iron Man

@Downgoat I actually really dislike the current behavior of À. Eventually (hopefully soon) it'll be replaced by z and Z, since those don't do anything useful in vim.

I just need to get the stack working first.

Downgoat

Dr Green Eggs and Iron Man

I also might eventually get around to making docs.

ThreeFx

What are you trying to do?

@DrGreenEggsandIronMan Said every programmer ever

LegionMammal978

11:54 PM

@Downgoat Question: were you once @Upgoat?

ThreeFx

yes

Dr Green Eggs and Iron Man

@ThreeFx Well, it's kinda frustrating/pointless to make docs when the program doesn't work the way you'd like, and you're not making any progress on it. I'd love it if it was stable enough for docs to be worth it.

Downgoat

@LegionMammal978 yes

Then the Great Rotationing happened and now I'm Downgoat
