^^
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing Congratulations for getting 50 answers!
 
@LeakyNun after 100 more all hell will break loose
 
@StepHen then we can aim for 500 :P
 
@LeakyNun It shouldn't be too hard to continue this, so as long as we keep it up, we can go for the most answered question on SE
as long as most langs have no-ops or comments :P
 
soon it will be time to spray the lang with bf derivatives
 
7:02 PM
The current record is 602 though
 
once all languages reopen we'll get built-in hell with Mathematica back lol
 
@HyperNeutrino let's not do that :p I had a fun time using g.f. in lua etc
 
oh and i may or may not flood it with stupid Python code xD
 
@LeakyNun Is that network-wide or no?
 
> stupid Python
 
7:04 PM
@LeakyNun yeah builtins and cough hardcoding isn't fun
 
I agree with these two words
 
@StepHen not sure
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing maybe you should say that every 150 answers, you can use a language an extra time
 
So at 450 answers, there can only be up to 3 python 3 answers
 
7:05 PM
@StepHen yeah, that sounds better
 
ofc that would confuse the stack snippet to no end
 
@StepHen there are already 3 lol
 
@MDXF in any language?
 
@StepHen No in C
 
7:08 PM
@MDXF any compiler?
 
Yeah aside from writing my own
 
@HyperNeutrino Looks like you're going to have to solve A11- you're the necklace expert
 
lol love how half of the answers are C
@BlackCap just take my A46 answer and replace the primitive function with true and credit me. Though Python is taken so I may need to go answer it after I get back on a computer
also I can't add the next answer rip
 
Who is going to answer the next sequence?
 
Last call for this:

A: Sandbox for Proposed Challenges

Step HenStream of Letters to Words code-golf string natural-language Given a string containing only letters (case-insensitive), split it into words of uniformly random lengths, using the distribution below, with the exception of the last word, which can be of any valid length (1-10). Your output is the...

 
7:11 PM
@BlackCap Hey, I golfed his program to 313 bytes!
:P
 
@LeakyNun go for it
 
I still haven't started
I'm going to use a forgotten language...
 
Processing
 
7:13 PM
Malbolge
 
lol how did i know you'd say that
 
@LeakyNun someone's going to pull out FORTRAN or HAL/S or something like that
 
use Röda
xD
 
I'm going to use Brachylog.
 
@HyperNeutrino I've probably said Processing 3 times or so today :P
 
7:14 PM
someone do it in Befunge
 
@LeakyNun Solve this in Pyth?
 
@HyperNeutrino yeeees, Röda 0.13 has some math functions
and got some math constants
 
and won against me in that super long chain of golfs ._.
lol i was looking at brachylog earlier today
 
I will never forget that golf
 
imma make a new and improved sequence Lang lol
@Cowsquack mhm ._.
:38947380 hey mean xD
o you deleted lol
 
7:18 PM
well, you've got to either make it golfier than Oasis or make it more versatile faster than me :P
 
ik :P
or both :D
 
make speed a key part of your lang
 
^^
that's the currently unused vector I think
cQuents doesn't give a darn how slow it runs xD
although Oasis claims to be fast
 
I'm thinking of using optimized internal representations for time-golfing
 
what does that even mean
 
7:20 PM
I'm making optimizations golfy so the programmer can make fast code while not wasting time lol
 
@HyperNeutrino write the interpreter in C then
 
@Cowsquack instead of storing evaluated things, store it symbolically
 
do it in assembly!
 
@StepHen nah don't want to learn new language
 
@HyperNeutrino ah, I see
 
7:21 PM
@Cowsquack then you can't run it on TIO :P
 
I have been planning that for a future language of mine as well
 
@HyperNeutrino well anyone who writes something in C will usually beat the same thing written in Python :P
 
@StepHen well TIO has assembly
 
@StepHen true :P
 
@Cowsquack hm you're right, they are all Linux assemblies though, since TIO is on a Linux
 
7:22 PM
should i make it tacit, stack based, or other
 
@HyperNeutrino stack-based
 
@StepHen it's not unlocked for our site yet
@Mr.Xcoder wat
 
make it completely different so that it would be more suitable for sequences
 
ok sure
 
@HyperNeutrino not stack-based, that's Oasis
 
7:23 PM
so "other"
 
@Cowsquack but... that's the idea of cQuents...
 
I thought Oasis wasn't stack-based
 
> Oasis is a stack-based language specialized in sequences.
@HyperNeutrino cQuents is based on defining code that is run for each item in the sequence, so don't do that unless you have to :P
 
ok lol
 
7:28 PM
@Mr.Xcoder thanks! :)
 
The next sequence is easy
 
@LeakyNun It is easy once you find an unused language
 
@Mr.Xcoder done
 
@LeakyNun Good job, sir
 
Holy crap what happened to the review queue, it's usually empty and it had 10 things in it just now 0.o
 
7:41 PM
Ingenious use of B and .t.
 
@Mr.Xcoder thanks :)
 
Wait, is Mathics basically the same thing as Mathematica?
 
@StepHen Nope
It doesn't have all things Mathematica has
 
bet it would have enough to solve some of the trickier sequences with builtins

However, because you are conspiracy theorists and think that the government has a quantum computer that can crack any standard encryption. Therefore, you are inventing one o...

 
7:43 PM
@StepHen it's basically a rewrite of mathematica, just without much built-in
 
i need a name for a new sequence language
 
@HyperNeutrino cQuents -1.0
 
no :P
 
aww
 
@HyperNeutrino Nyarlathotep?
 
7:45 PM
wtf
 
@HyperNeutrino Ozymandias
 
does this have to do with Cthulhu
 
@HyperNeutrino Of course
 
o ffs
 
dc is a language with a string type, but the only string operation it has takes a string and returns its first character, rendering many challenges impossible (there's no way to get the other part of that string). Would it be legal to take string input as a list of integers?
 
7:46 PM
@poi830 Of course
Ask the OP

Q: Grocery Store Micromanagement

quartataYou are an employee at the hip new grocery store Half Foods, and it's the day before Thanksgiving Christmas Easter. Since the store will be packed with customers rushing to get their foodstuffs, the store needs a traffic manager to send everyone to the appropriate lines. Being lazy, you'd like to...

 
@HyperNeutrino Genseq
 
@HyperNeutrino sequential sequences in sequence
@poi830 You could bring it up on meta
 
OEISBook
 
@Mr.Xcoder That implies you have a library for OEIS though
 
7:47 PM
Seqbook
 
@Mr.Xcoder how many more answers do you want on your challenge?
 
I'll make the language first with its syntax and then make a name

Jan DvorakA curve is a set of points on a square grid such that each point has exactly two neighbors in the four-neighbor neighborhood and the points form a single connected component. That is, the graph induced by the points on a grid graph is isomorphic to a single cycle. "Induced" means that two points ...

Q: Golf me a memory array

Bruce ForteThis challenge is pretty simple: Your task is to draw a schematic of a (simplified) memory array. You will be given two (positive) integers n,m and the task is to draw the n:2^n decoder connected to the memory array with d data lines. The addressing will be in the order of gray codes, to check i...

@LeakyNun On my staircase challenge?
 
@Mr.Xcoder yes
 
7:48 PM
@NewMainPosts holy crap that's a record
 
@LeakyNun As many as you can write
 
wtf just happened
 
@Mr.Xcoder give me a number
 
3
for now
 
7 AT ONCE!?!?
 
7:49 PM
NMP hasn't posted in at least 14 hours
that's what happened
 
wtf
bad bot :P
 
@LeakyNun What languages?
 
@Mr.Xcoder ?
 
someone bookmark this conversation
 
@LeakyNun You said 3 more answers, in which languages will you write them
 
7:50 PM
@Mr.Xcoder haven't decided
 
@LeakyNun Ok...
 
@LeakyNun do Taxi
trust me it's a ton of fun
 
That moment when you search for a song on Youtube, leave the tab and wonder why the song ain't playing anymore...
 
@LeakyNun Remember that modular arithmetic question you asked earlier? Well if you solve it in O(log n) time then I have a way you can use it to break RSA really fast.
 
@WheatWizard I actually derived that question from RSA, so...
 
7:52 PM
@WheatWizard offer an infinite bounty
or did someone do that already
 
what's the question? this is interesting
 
I'm not going to put a bounty on breaking RSA
Its pretty pointless
@Cowsquack $a^x = 1 \mod N$, given $a$ and $N$ find $x > 0$ that satisfies the equation
 
do you mean $x$ instead of $n$?
 
@WheatWizard could you put that in a layman's notation? :P
 
7:56 PM
@Mr.Xcoder actually forget about it :P
 
@LeakyNun I was 90 % sure you were going to give up
 
so this is equivalent to a^x % N=1?
 
@StepHen (a**x)%N == 1
@Cowsquack yes
 
Just posted another sequence!
 
what, so we're allowed to just make up byte counts now???
please don't ._.
 
8:00 PM
WTH is nimsum?
 
@HyperNeutrino There are a bunch of spaces there
 
@HyperNeutrino I'm gonna change it to A000005
 
@HyperNeutrino you're always allowed but what's the point
 
@LeakyNun I really admire that Pyth submission...
Why doesn't it get more upvotes?
 
@Mr.Xcoder to which question?
 
8:02 PM
@LeakyNun to mine, the staircase one
 
yeah i mean that seems to take the point at from using the byte count of the last program
 
@Mr.Xcoder it isn't really that good
 
@LeakyNun The algorithm is great.
 
@Mr.Xcoder thanks
Now I need to pick an unused language to do A5
 
Does Pyke have a divisor built-in?
 
8:04 PM
I was just looking at Black Cap's rep graph ._.
 
I would be surprised if it doesn't have one
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing Loooool
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing stalker ;P
 
@HyperNeutrino no I just randomly go onto peoples profile, depending on if I like their picture :D
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing You're really bored
 
8:06 PM
^
 
@Mr.Xcoder Yep. I also wanted to see how many answers they've posted: 7
 
@Mr.Xcoder @HyperNeutrino @Cowsquack
 
Can anyone give me a CMC (for Pyth / Jelly, depending on the difficulty
@LeakyNun I will
 
I'm not going to post an answer that I did not work on at all
 
@Mr.Xcoder Find the LCM of a list of integers
 
8:07 PM
apl beats jelly on this one
 
@Mr.Xcoder 3 bytes in Jelly
 
2 bytes in Dyalog APL
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing Least common multiple.... Hmm

credit leaky sheesh
xD
 
@LeakyNun you've posted 10 of the answers to the answer chain, and done about half of the others :D
 
8:10 PM
@HyperNeutrino DOne
 
lol that's cuz he's some insane math genius who actually understand the sequences lol
 
@LeakyNun You basically just gave me 70 rep :)
@cairdcoinheringaahing Working on it
 
@LeakyNun how close are you to legendary?
 
@Mr.Xcoder that was fast :O
 
@HyperNeutrino No, this one got +3, I mean I posted 3 answers for him.
(+2, +2, +3) * 10 each
 
8:12 PM
@Mr.Xcoder can I call rep hound? :D (jk)
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing about the same distance as I am to Dennis
 
oh lol
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing Test case
 
@Mr.Xcoder for the CMC?
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing Of course
 
8:14 PM
[4, 8, 12] => 24
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing Is æl helpful here?
 
@Mr.Xcoder What does it do?
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing Finds the LCM
 
@Mr.Xcoder So will it be helpful?
 
> æl Lowest common multiple (LCM)
@cairdcoinheringaahing IDK
 
8:16 PM
@Mr.Xcoder yes. An LCM builtin tends to help in an LCM CMC :D
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing Ok, I just dunno how yet
 
@Mr.Xcoder Just try to solve it, then try to golf it
 
wait @cairdcoinheringaahing you have a gold badge?
is jealous ;_;
 
@HyperNeutrino Fanatic?
 
@HyperNeutrino fanatic
 
8:17 PM
oh ok
lol I SHOULD have that ;_; rip
yay I can post again
 
@HyperNeutrino I have 2 :) And you have double the rep I have
 
I have a gold over at Movies and TV for 1 question
 
@Mr.Xcoder lol xD
@cairdcoinheringaahing wtf how ;_;
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing 3 bytes: æl/
 
8:19 PM
@cairdcoinheringaahing I have that one on PPCG
 
@Mr.Xcoder yep. Now try it in Pyth :)
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing Doing it now
@cairdcoinheringaahing Do you know Pyth?
 
@Mr.Xcoder print("Not a chance")
 
Pyth does not have a built-in :(
@HyperNeutrino I think I'll reach the milestone today :)
 
@MartinEnder can you give me some help about Mathematica?
 
8:22 PM
@Mr.Xcoder what milestone? xD
 
@HyperNeutrino I think 5k
 
@HyperNeutrino The one we were talking about earlier
 
Wait, I'm supposed to remember things that are said in TNB?
 
@HyperNeutrino No, NVM :)
 
@HyperNeutrino :You should remember everything that is said in TNB
 
8:23 PM
:P
 
I just didn't want to draw too much attention on that
 
@Christopher false
 
@Christopher your brain would explode
 
@Christopher I'm no Dennis!
 
If someone would star my message i could set up a great starboard
 
8:24 PM
@cairdcoinheringaahing rollback my edit if you want
@Christopher and make us pay for it
 
@StepHen I don't enough know what you did D:
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing Just made it so it does 1-3,5 instead of 1,2,3,5 for @ETHProductions's byte count list
 
@StepHen Hahahahaha
 
I'm listening to K-Pop right now. Don't understand a single word D:
 
I am done screwing around. Why does my KoTH only have 4 answerso
 
8:25 PM
@Christopher link?

@Mr.Xcoder q0 means !
 
8:27 PM

@cairdcoinheringaahing Not a sandbox
 
I have exactly 2600 rep. No-one vote on my posts :)
 
THIS IS WAR. I just spent 100 rep just to get some more answers on my KOTH. I will never come close to getting my rep back
@cairdcoinheringaahing You have what?
 
Is herokuapp down again?
 
@Christopher I'm feeling sorry for you now. If you nominate one of your answers that you believe is bounty worthy, and I agree, I'll give you a bounty?
 
8:34 PM
@cairdcoinheringaahing lol it is what I do
I get pissed at how few answers I get then I spend rep for more answers.
6 hours ago, by totallyhuman
how sad
 
@Christopher advice: don't
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing i just do it. It often works.
 
brb, getting all the bronze badges I can.
 
Anyways this is my favorite answer

You don't need to do it I just think they are kinda cool and have <5 upvotes
 
@Christopher I just remembered to ask, did you steal borrow your profile picture from Helka Homba?
@StepHen given that you're known for using it, is there a way to use Taxi for the sequence one?
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing I don't wanna train Pyth now, so I'll stick to Jelly :P
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing No. Y?
 
@Christopher check his profile. He used to have the same picture...
@Mr.Xcoder Hypertraining?
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing That is cool. Anyways i pinged you my favorite answers
 
8:44 PM
@cairdcoinheringaahing Why not?
 
@Christopher yeah I'll see if there are any others before making a decision though
@Mr.Xcoder here or in Hypertraining?
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing Let's do it there
 
@trichoplax I have 1 thing: Good luck
 
@trichoplax Dang, I have my KotH running right now :P

It is really small :P
 
@Mr.Xcoder noice
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing Thank you!
 
@trichoplax Looking forward to see one of the greatest KoTHs of all time
 
@trichoplax you should look at my koth. You have a better one
 
8:47 PM
@Christopher How about I post now but don't place a bounty until yours expires...?
@Mr.Xcoder Wow thank you! Looking forward to seeing some devious players...
@Christopher Totally different types, totally different languages, so hopefully they won't compete. I thought yours would have more answers - it looks interesting. Maybe summer means too many people away
