HyperNeutrino

@HyperNeutrino probably wrong

Mr. Xcoder

@HyperNeutrino Yes

HyperNeutrino

or not

(I mean I was guessing what your code might've been and it gives the same result)

totallyhuman

oh

hmm how does fix

Mr. Xcoder

@HyperNeutrino 4 bytes you said?

HyperNeutrino

4:01 PM

yup

Leaky Nun

CMC: number of distinct prime factors

12 -> [2,3] -> 2

HyperNeutrino

Æv ;_;

less boring: ÆFL

Mr. Xcoder

@LeakyNun Pyth, 3 bytes: l{P

Leaky Nun

do it in SILOS :p

Mr. Xcoder

What's SILOS? >_<

Leaky Nun

4:03 PM

@Mr.Xcoder tio.run/#silos

HyperNeutrino

python: lambda n:len([f for f in range(2,n)if n%f==0and all(f%k for k in range(2,f))])

Mr. Xcoder

@HyperNeutrino 77: lambda n:len([f for f in range(2,n)if n%f<1and all(f%k for k in range(2,f))])

HyperNeutrino

nice

Mr. Xcoder

@HyperNeutrino I give up on that one

HyperNeutrino

Hint: Use the same atom that you used last time.

Mr. Xcoder

4:07 PM

@HyperNeutrino Oh

HyperNeutrino

:)

don't give up tho lol

Mr. Xcoder

@HyperNeutrino I don't

HyperNeutrino

ok

Mr. Xcoder

@HyperNeutrino I must use ŒḄ, right?

HyperNeutrino

I haven't found another solution, but I know there's a 4-byter with that one

Mr. Xcoder

4:11 PM

@HyperNeutrino Does it use Ṛ?

HyperNeutrino

mine doesn't, but I think you can

Downgoat

@totallyhuman O_o what is 'programming ligature'

Mr. Xcoder

@HyperNeutrino Does it use r?

Downgoat

oh I see

HyperNeutrino

@Mr.Xcoder mine doesn't

Mr. Xcoder

4:12 PM

@HyperNeutrino Does it contain Œ more than once?

HyperNeutrino

>.<

mine doesn't.

Mr. Xcoder

@HyperNeutrino R?

HyperNeutrino

ok ŒḄ is at the very end, so just figure out in two bytes how to get the first half and then do ŒḄ.

Mr. Xcoder

@HyperNeutrino :)

HyperNeutrino

the next sequence tho ;_;

round(cos(n))

finally a sequence where you don't have to spend two hours doing research

Mr. Xcoder

4:21 PM

@HyperNeutrino Hooray, RṚŒḄ. What was yours?

HyperNeutrino

Same but with U lol

nice job

Mr. Xcoder

Thanks

Like RUŒḄ

'nother one

HyperNeutrino

yup k lemme think of a good one

do the next sequence in Jelly

Mr. Xcoder

round(cos(n))?

HyperNeutrino

yeah

Mr. Xcoder

4:23 PM

Super

HyperNeutrino

I don't think it should be too hard but I haven't tried it yet

Mr. Xcoder

Try it

HyperNeutrino

alright

Mr. Xcoder

@HyperNeutrino Is ÆẠ in radians?

HyperNeutrino

idk

Mr. Xcoder

4:25 PM

It gives -0.95 for 60

HyperNeutrino

yep

Mr. Xcoder

It should be 0.5 in deg

But how do I convert to deg?

HyperNeutrino

°

deg -> rad

AE for rad -> deg

Mr. Xcoder

Oh, thanks

HyperNeutrino

except you should be using radians lol

Mr. Xcoder

4:26 PM

Æ°

@HyperNeutrino What?!

HyperNeutrino

the sequence uses radians

Mr. Xcoder

Can you link to OEIS

?

NVM

BlackCap

Can somebody post A34?

Cubix, `....I2%:)O@`

HyperNeutrino

well we have to wait for an answer to A484

Mr. Xcoder

@HyperNeutrino ÆẠĊ

BlackCap

4:28 PM

I just answered that one

oh ok

I will

@Mr.Xcoder not quite

Too late

that's ceil but you need round

Mr. Xcoder

4:28 PM

@BlackCap StepHen did

HyperNeutrino

I really wish I could answer more than once per hour

Mr. Xcoder

@HyperNeutrino ÆẠḞ

HyperNeutrino

that's floor isn't it

sorry to disappoint you but that's still wrong

Mr. Xcoder

Searching through the atoms

HyperNeutrino

ÆẠær0 hehe

you pretty much have it

so I'll just tell you what the atom is because it's a bit obscure

there really should be a round atom (maybe there is o0)

Step Hen

4:31 PM

@BlackCap Sorry, didn't see that til afterwards

Fire truck just passed a tractor on a country road outside my window xD

HyperNeutrino

lol

Step Hen

or at least I think it did, couldn't see the actual event but it was already pulling over when it left my field of view

:o lol

Is ruby taken?

yes

4:34 PM

the shortest solution you may post is 5 bytes lol

Step Hen

yes, just open the snippet and Ctrl-F Ruby

HyperNeutrino

oh A000004 already happened lol

Step Hen

@HyperNeutrino no, 0

although it amounts to the same thing

HyperNeutrino

>.<

there's no A0 though

Step Hen

@HyperNeutrino When there isn't a sequence for a length, it uses the first available sequence

so a 0 length program would use (and remove) A000005

(atm)

HyperNeutrino

4:35 PM

hm ok

Step Hen

If there isn't a sequence for then length of the last post, then the sequence for your post is the lowest unused sequence.

@HyperNeutrino

HyperNeutrino

ah ok

I really REALLY REALLY REALLY wish I could still participate but there's the one hour rule >.<

Step Hen

@HyperNeutrino ninjas would be so much worse if everyone could always participate

HyperNeutrino

true

we'd all be ninja-ing each other lol

BlackCap

Wouldn't that be more fun though?

caird coinheringaahing

4:38 PM

I've been thinking about the ninja'ing and what do you think of no time limit after 100 answers?

HyperNeutrino

also I expect this question to be autoprotected some time within the next few days

caird coinheringaahing

You can't answer twice in a row, but you have no time limit

HyperNeutrino

@cairdcoinheringaahing I think shorten it to maybe 10-20 minutes

no time limit would still cause a bunch of ninja's

having a shorter limit allows people to post more answers and reduces ninja'ing a bit I hope

@ALL who here can [un]protect questions (i.e. rep >= 3500)

Mr. Xcoder

@HyperNeutrino No, because it will gradually become inactive

HyperNeutrino

true

maybe that would be a good idea

though we've had 50 answers within the past 24 hours xD

50+

Mr. Xcoder

4:39 PM

@HyperNeutrino @ALL who here can [un]protect questions (i.e. rep >= 3500)??

What?

HyperNeutrino

people with >=3500 rep can protect/unprotect questions

so like you can

Mr. Xcoder

@HyperNeutrino I know. So, what?

HyperNeutrino

the OEIS question will be autoprotected quite a bit I think

Mr. Xcoder

@HyperNeutrino By community?

HyperNeutrino

@Mr.Xcoder yup. self-deletions

Mr. Xcoder

4:42 PM

@HyperNeutrino Only mods can unprotect questions protected by community.

HyperNeutrino

false

codegolf.stackexchange.com/posts/55422/revisions

Mr. Xcoder

oh, I think I misread my privileges when I've hit 4k

HyperNeutrino

lol

caird coinheringaahing

I just noticed the new and improved stack snippet

HyperNeutrino

half of the revision history of the Hello World challenge is just protect/unprotect lol

Mr. Xcoder

4:44 PM

Time for some arithmetic CMCs

HyperNeutrino

more cthulhu dev?

Mr. Xcoder

@HyperNeutrino Yes

HyperNeutrino

@cairdcoinheringaahing did you say alephalpha answered the next sequence?

Mr. Xcoder

I won't PR anything thiygh

@HyperNeutrino He didn't

HyperNeutrino

oh ok

caird coinheringaahing

4:45 PM

@HyperNeutrino I thought he answered within the time limit

But he didn't

HyperNeutrino

ah ok

Mr. Xcoder

I really want to hit 5k today

HyperNeutrino

ooo you're close

Mr. Xcoder

Anyone easy main challenge?

HyperNeutrino

I might post one soon if I can think of a good one

Cows quack

4:46 PM

destructive concatenation?

HyperNeutrino

brb opening sandbox to pull challenges out of it

Final feedback?

Mr. Xcoder

Lol, I just got an upvote

HyperNeutrino

I want to hit 10k network rep soon lol

@Mr.Xcoder typically happens if you say you want to hit <reptarget> lol

Mr. Xcoder

@HyperNeutrino Wait till I read it

Cows quack

here's a sandbox of mine that I offer to anyone who wants it: codegolf.meta.stackexchange.com/a/10995/41805

Mr. Xcoder

4:48 PM

I highly doubt it's someone in this room though

HyperNeutrino

idk ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Mr. Xcoder

Nor do I ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯

HyperNeutrino

lol I have 5 things in my rep log all about the OEIS challenge

new ><> answer to OEIS

Mr. Xcoder

I find the challenge... Hm... quite non-interesting

BlackCap

Tell me about it

HyperNeutrino

4:49 PM

lol

caird coinheringaahing

@Cowsquack chat.stackexchange.com/rooms/60187/orphans-for-adoption

Mr. Xcoder

@BlackCap Wait, how do you have that dark theme?

HyperNeutrino

isn't it funny how ><> backwards is ><>?

caird coinheringaahing

@Mr.Xcoder its pony exclusive

Cows quack

but it's frozen

BlackCap

4:50 PM

@Mr.Xcoder github.com/StylishThemes/StackOverflow-Dark

caird coinheringaahing

@Cowsquack how do you unfreeze rooms?

Cows quack

ask mods

HyperNeutrino

ready to post?

caird coinheringaahing

the oeis challenge is back to partitions!

Cows quack

@HyperNeutrino I don't understand the testcases

HyperNeutrino

4:52 PM

AGAIN (ノ°Д°）ノ︵ ┻━┻

@Cowsquack what about them is unclear?

Cows quack

nvm

I figured it out

caird coinheringaahing

@HyperNeutrino it looks good

totallyhuman

┬─┬ ノ( ゜-゜ノ)

put the tables back ಠ_ಠ

Cows quack

actually wait

caird coinheringaahing

I'm thinking of having a way for people to nominate languages that they want used in the answer-chaining, but a meta post would be closed :(

Actually what do people think of this: Someone (not me) posts a CW answer with a list of languages that people want used. It can't be larger than, say, 10 languages, so one of them has to be used before new ones can be added. I accept that (pin it to the top) and people can pick from that.

HyperNeutrino

4:58 PM

I don't like that idea.

Mr. Xcoder

Nor do I

BlackCap

I do like that idea ..

Mr. Xcoder

I am writing a new answer-chaining challenge

HyperNeutrino

It's not exactly an answer, and even if we "make an exception", we don't want to make exceptions to begin with, and we don't want people thinking that that's acceptable, or that that's what community-wiki is for.

Mr. Xcoder

^

HyperNeutrino

5:01 PM

grr. 18 minutes to go before I can answer again

Mr. Xcoder

What do you think about this: Write a program that outputs double the integer in the answer before yours and has a double number of bytes.

@HyperNeutrino @cairdcoinheringaahing ^?

HyperNeutrino

that will get huge quickly

Mr. Xcoder

@HyperNeutrino "huge"?

HyperNeutrino

double the bytes

Mr. Xcoder

@HyperNeutrino Yeah, thought about that too

HyperNeutrino

5:02 PM

the size limit is 65536 bytes

Cows quack

you get 1024 bytes in 10 answers

HyperNeutrino

that only allows for like 16 answers

Mr. Xcoder

NVM, I don't like it either

HyperNeutrino

also I posted the zigzag challenge

Mr. Xcoder

I won't answer it because it's too hard for my lazyness

HyperNeutrino

5:03 PM

lol

what, did you expect CMC-level easiness???

Mr. Xcoder

@HyperNeutrino Pff, no, I'm just too lazy now

totallyhuman

CMC: output powers of 2

infinitely

Mr. Xcoder

@HyperNeutrino You have 8.1k on PPCG, I have 8.1 k network

HyperNeutrino

lol

i=1
while i:print(2**i);i+=1

did you want 1 too?

totallyhuman

meh

either way is fine

HyperNeutrino

5:06 PM

if so then:

actually

i=1
while 1:print(i);i*=2

totallyhuman

><> <><

Mr. Xcoder

@totallyhuman 9 bytes, Pyth: W1^2Z=+Z1

Also 9 bytes: K1W1K=*K2

totallyhuman

Z is initialized to 0 i presume?

Mr. Xcoder

@totallyhuman yes

HyperNeutrino

and..... capped ._.

totallyhuman

5:09 PM

.-.

HyperNeutrino

with 7 hours to go until a new day ._.

Mr. Xcoder

9 bytes: W1^2Z=ZhZ

BlackCap

I have an answer to A196 in Pony if anyone can post an answer yet: pastebin.com/F6wikmjJ

Mr. Xcoder

HyperNeutrino

lol

Mr. Xcoder

5:10 PM

Man, take it easy

HyperNeutrino

:)

totallyhuman

Ü

HyperNeutrino

._.

I have +201 today

Mr. Xcoder

Like this ^

totallyhuman

oh ye i liek updoots

gimme more

oh hey new challenge

hmm

HyperNeutrino

5:11 PM

why do I keep getting +201

Mr. Xcoder

totallyhuman

we get it you cap

:P

Mr. Xcoder

I had a period like that too ^^^

totallyhuman

hrmm

i can't think of a good way to approach this

Mr. Xcoder

I have the first part :)

i=input()
for x in range(i):print' '*x+'#'

totallyhuman

5:19 PM

[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 3, 2, 1, 2, 3, 2]

number of spaces per line for 5

3 -> [0, 1, 2, 1]

interesting

n - 1 ranges concatenated together

Mr. Xcoder

@HyperNeutrino Your test cases with 7: 3<(7+1)/2

NVM

Leaky Nun

@totallyhuman wt is this?

totallyhuman

14 mins ago, by totallyhuman

number of spaces per line for 5

HyperNeutrino

5:44 PM

can someone explain this

Erik the Outgolfer

> a(n) = n! * sum i=0 ... [n/4]( (-1)^i /(i! * 4^i))

hmm...unreadable

HyperNeutrino

like what's exp(-x^4/4)/(1-x)

Cows quack

@HyperNeutrino maybe (e^(-x^4/4))/(1-x)?

HyperNeutrino

tried but then it gives errors

well gives wrong results

Erik the Outgolfer

I think it's e**(x**4/4)/(1-x)

we all know -x**4 == x**4

or does it mean e**(-(x**4)/4)/(1-x)?

Cows quack

5:47 PM

it is not (-x)**4 but rather -x**4

HyperNeutrino

tio.run/…

both are wrong...

Erik the Outgolfer

@Cowsquack yeah oeis doesn't parenthesize well

dunno why

HyperNeutrino

nvm, chained onto OEIS challenge

dzaima

> keyword easy

HyperNeutrino

I don't think that means that it's easy to implement lol

I don't even know what it means xD

dzaima

5:50 PM

It is easy to produce terms of this sequence.

HyperNeutrino

wtf

Mr. Xcoder

> An exceptionally nice sequence.

HyperNeutrino

what languages are left lol

Cows quack

Processing

HyperNeutrino

aaa I want to try using Hexagony but it's confusing

Cows quack

5:56 PM

K

Doorknob

@HyperNeutrino If only the language had some way of warning you... too bad nothing in the name suggests that :P

HyperNeutrino

lol certainly not... xD

How should I get more bots for my koth?

Cows quack

@HyperNeutrino ooh bc is nice
