Q: Help recalculate your rep!

A couple months ago, we had a discussion on meta about increasing the reputation awarded for upvotes on questions. Here's the basics of our current reputation system for votes:1 A question upvote U is worth 5 reputation. An answer upvote u is worth 10 reputation. A question or answer downvote d...

Consider the standard equilateral triangle, with nodes labeled using barycentric coordinates: We can turn this 3 node triangle into a 6 node triangle by adding a new line of 3 vertices (one more than was present on a side of the original 3 node triangle), remove any internal edges (but not int...

Does anyone have a way of turning your current rep into that input format?

Yeah, you can use the API

I meant like a ready made program I can c+p

I used a SE Data Explorer query to calculate the examples

something like http://api.stackexchange.com/2.2/users/<id>?site=codegolf

SEDE is a week behind

It is?

Meh, I'll still allow it

10:04 AM

SEDE updates its data every Sunday

@Quill ...it's a Tuesday

...and?

Tuesday - Sunday < a week

Oh, my point is that SEDE is up to a week old

e.g. it's not fresh data

Releasing Helium Nuclei

Click for an actual flowchart for identifying a meteorite. My favorite part is how 'Did someone see it fall? -> Yes' points to 'NOT A METEORITE.' This is not a mistake.

@Mego Heavily optimized complexity (as well as time)

@HelkaHomba I have next to no experience on puzzling, but from their on topic page:

> If you do not have the solution to the puzzle, state so in the question.

Looks like that maths puzzle turned into a programming challenge after all :)

> If it looks like a vegetable, it's not a meteorite.

A: Do we need a hats tag?

I sincerely think we need a hats tag. I love hats and I constantly refresh to see if there are any new hat related questions. Please do not remove the hats tag, I use this hourly.

Q: Exploring 10-Rep Questions

Related Introduction As it happens, someone put forward the idea that, since PPCG has graduated, up votes on questions should be worth 10 rep. As a result, I started wondering how much rep I would have if it had always been 10 rep. Challenge Given a PPCG user's id as input, output how much to...

code-golf internet

@muddyfish Yep :D

@βετѧΛєҫαγ would including the rep cap make the challenge significantly more difficult? Or is it not feasible from the data available?

Would be great to see accurate figures...

I suppose it would be much more challenging... But possibly too challenging for me to calculate the examples

If anyone wants to do this however, it would be great to have a second program as a footnote

If it's a significantly different task would it work as a separate challenge?

Quite possibly, yes

BTW it seems that @HelkaHomba has more rep from questions that he does overall

But that's probably a stupid error on SEDE's part

11:39 AM

Sounds reasonable to me... :P

I guess it's technically possible if someone has only downvotes on their answers

@Mego I remember now why I didn't write my own Seriously answer for the Bernoulli numbers question: no support for fractions. Nothing that looks easy either.

*at the time

@Sp3000 Thank you for your feedback. The functions related to primes will have a great increase in speed once Dennis has pulled Actually.

Well, I'll write my own fraction code

gcd() being a built-in certainly helps

12:03 PM

@Sherlock9 link? also i believe actually has gcd

i'm going to call actually act from now on

I haven't written it yet. Real life stuff started up. Will get to it soon

And it will just be adding fractions for now

I mean, are you writing solution for a challenge?

Adding fractions to your language? I am not aware that you have a language

12:19 PM

No, I'm adding fractions to Seriously so I can use it in this Bernoulli numbers challenge from last November codegolf.stackexchange.com/questions/65382/bernoulli-numbers

Well, not adding

More like trying to write my own function for fraction addition

But you dont need fractions?

I thought floats are acceptable outputs

You need up to B(60) and the floating-points start to mess up around B(29)

This I know from working on that challenge for more than a month
