@user202729 In this particular case, I neither have nor like Mathematica, and so I never use it. And to find the formula for the coefficients of the series for the q-Pochhammer function I had to understand what that is, compute some coefficients and find them at OEIS. And yes indeed, then I just selected a useful way to compute them without asking for a proof, only struggling with how to explain that to axiom...
@Pavel Sorry, I'm in and out, seeing bits and pieces of this conversation. <Leader> is whatever you want it to be. Conceptually, it exists so you can have room to make your own mappings without overriding defaults
One thing that has always bothered me in vi / vim:
If I "yank" (a.k.a. "copy") some text, then move to another place in the file and do a "paste", my cursor remains at the beginning of the text I just pasted. This is different from what most modern editors do, which is put the cursor at the end...
Also @AdmBorkBork thanks for your wonderful hexagon triangles challenge, since I am terribly amused by the fact that Charcoal is only 3.3 times shorter than Python :D
@Pavel Neovim is a refactor of vim. It's main design goals were 1) a more open community so that development didn't all go through one person, and more people felt free to contribute, and 2) Async support. However, since vim 8 added async support, the differences aren't that marked now
Write the shortest code by character count to generate an ASCII grid composed of rhombi, given the following parameters:
m - number of complete rhombi in one row
n - number of rows
s - side of the smallest rhombus
r - level of nesting
Examples
1. Input: 5 3 1 0
Output:
/\/\/\/\/\
\/\/\/\/\...
CMC: Given a String, insert N spaces in front of each character, where N represents the sum of the positions in the alphabet of the characters preceding it (in the String).
Temperature ranges from [-10ºC, 35ºC] in the city I live in, but I don't really stay here during summer, and in the other cities temperatures range from [-25ºC, 40ºC] :P
If you see me answer any questions or comment on a post before September 2017, please down vote, leave an angry comment and give me a smack in the face! Thanks!
There's one neighbourhood here that's usually 3 or 4 degrees above the average in the city. I saw someone put a frying pan over the pavement and fry an egg to prove a point
> It’s impossibly hot in Arizona right now, like a Qatari summer hot. Temperatures are hovering around 113 degrees Fahrenheit and are even higher in some locations.
The Keyboard Shift Cipher
Given the following input:
An integer n where n > 0.
A string s where |s| > 0 and s~=[0-9A-Z]+ (non-empty alpha-numeric capitalized strings).
Using a standard, simplified QWERTY keyboard (as shown below):
1234567890
QWERTYUIOP

Your challenge is to write N snippets of code such that, when you concatenate the first K ≥ 1 together, they produce the number K. The higher N, the better. Here's the catch: you may not use any character more than once across your snippets.
Rules
You may use the same character multiple times ...

@Riker Celcius. The summer here can get really hot :P
Also, how do you undo an edit review? I rejected an edit but I'm pondering whether or not in could potentially be beneficial, though I don't think so. I marked it as harmful because I wanted to add a note though really at its worst it would probably just be "doesnt' help with anything"
The only things for which I still use Java are image processing and graphics. Once I learn how to do that in Python, I probably won't use Java anymore :D
@drobilc You can discuss it here but I would suggest you write out your challenge idea in the Sandbox (just post as an answer) and send us the link, and we can review it for you. It's easier that way in my opinion.
@HyperNeutrino For scripting it is evil... for small programs it is evil... for larger projects I favor it... (that being said, I use it for almost everything... for scripting, I open IntelliJ and run the interpreter for one of my languages, which is written in Java)
I like duck typing because as long as the thing you have has the attribute you need why case about what type it is? As long as it has what you want it's fine. Don't discriminate objects D: :P
