@primo There is this

Only matches global though

this is "Section 1" of something that will be 3 or 4 sections.

@H.PWiz i think you got me

how long is the decoder, btw?

14:32

@H.PWiz mine is 185, although i have an idea that might reduce it considerably

H.PWiz

Interestingly, I do almost exactly the same as my Haskell answer.

ETHproductions

@flawr does it not save a copy every 60 seconds anymore?

primo

that's what i'm going to try next ;)

flawr

@ETHproductions it does, but that just saves it on their server. I also want to be able to save my stuff locally in case they decide to discontinue their site.

wizzwizz4

@flawr HTTrack?

Or a Python script with requests?

flawr

@wizzwizz4 thanks for the suggestion, didn't see the notification for some reason:/

If you're good at regular expressions, should be pretty easy to set it up with a depth of 2 and a filter just to get the full-screen versions but crawl the IDE versions and let it loose on your fiddle list.

That'll get stand-alone rips of all your fiddles, iirc.

flawr

@wizzwizz4 unfortunately I'm terrible at regex :D

wizzwizz4

@flawr It's ok, you can get help pretty easily.

I'll show you. Observe:

Can anyone help me with this RegEx? h*ppy I want it to match "happy", "hoppy", "hippy" etc. but it doesn't work.

@flawr There. Now all the RegEx people will flood in to fix the obvious error, and you can jump on them with a harder problem.

flawr

hehe:)

@wizzwizz4 replace the * with [...], where ... is every single unicode character /s

primo

@H.PWiz i actually can't a bigint solution to work

flawr

15:06

can we find a regex that matches all valid regexes?

H.PWiz

@primo Interesting, too slow? I currently can't get a bigfloat solution to work, I wast to be able to do @evalpoly(a,<Array>...), but it doesn't seem to work like other varargs

primo

for whatever reason, bigfloats keep popping up

i'm not using evalpoly o.O

H.PWiz

I'm not either

primo

maybe i should be

182 now, btw

CMC: We define a : nat -> nat by writing n = 2^v1 + 2^v2 + ... + 2^vk and defining a(n) = v1 | v2 | ... | vk where | is bitwise-or. Given n : nat, return n | a(n) | a(a(n)) | a(a(a(n))) | ...

@cairdcoinheringaahing You mean [\x00-\U10FFFF]?

ETHproductions

@wizzwizz4 I think you just want h.ppy

wizzwizz4

@ETHproductions I do, thanks.

@flawr .*?

Matches all valid regexes, and some things that aren't.

ETHproductions

Oh thanks, I have become the fool once again :P

H.PWiz

@primo I really can't get a bigfloat solution to work. I suspect I'm loosing accuracy at some step.

ETHproductions

I have almost no idea what the larger regex question means though

primo

15:22

@H.PWiz you setprecision beforehand?

H.PWiz

Yep

primo

then i don't know

do bigints requre div, or can you just use / ?

H.PWiz

I've been using div yes

primo

maybe that's my problem >_<;;

H.PWiz

BigInt(1)/BigInt(2) gives me 5.0e-01

@ETHproductions Almost got me too. I had to read the messages above for the actual context.

flawr

@wizzwizz4 you could probably answer 90% of all regex questions on SO with this :D

H.PWiz

@primo My BigFloat one takes 192, the problem is that I take too many to compute the derivative

ngn

16:16

@LeakyNun ngn/k, 17 bytes: {2/|/'2\x,&|2\x}/

if n represents a set X, the positions of the 1-bits of X are its elements, and a(n) is its union

or their union

n|a(n)|a(a(n))|... is X united with its elements, united with its elements' elements etc, which is the transitive closure

Leaky Nun

16:33

right

primo

@H.PWiz one thing that saved me quite a few bytes is the realization that x/x==1

evaluating the polynomial and its derivative "properly" isn't strictly necessary

H.PWiz

Hmm.. I'll think about it. Currently, my integer one is at 178, only one more byte and I'll save a byte. (what I don't like about compressed source)

lirtosiast

@H.PWiz what challenge is this for?

2 hours later…

primo

18:26

@H.PWiz i can deduce from that that your decompressor is 2 bytes shorter than mine ;)

but i do know what you mean. i recently reduced by ruby solution by 5, but was unable to get it aligned properly to save even one

H.PWiz

18:56

I'm at 175 now btw. Used a trick that I couldn't see a use for until now

If you have a dynamic/computer property with setter and getter

does it make sense for the setter to return?

For example if myObj.x is computed property should print(myObj.x = 3) be allowed?

in that usually in C-based languages the myObj.x would return a value (the value it was set to) in this case 3

however if this was done that would mean everytime you call a setter, you in turn call the getter

dzaima

@Downgoat imo in that, it should print what print(localVariable = 3) would print (or error if that's invalid in whatever language you're talking about)

Downgoat

@dzaima so you are saying it make sense to essentially do print((myObj.set(3), myObj.get()))

dzaima

@Downgoat why the get, wouldn't just print((myObj.set(3), 3)) work?

(that is, if the return value of assignment is the assigned value)

imo adding in a var = in an expression shouldn't change what it does, is all

hmm though with that logic, var+= val should return val. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

El'endia Starman

22:12

@Downgoat Not necessarily; you can just return the value that was passed to set.

Downgoat

@El'endiaStarman oh this is good idea

@dzaima well this would expand to var = (var + val)

Adám

@dzaima APL...

dzaima

@Downgoat oh thought i said that already ._.

@Adám yeah, i thought of mentioning APL, but APL already does things very differently from other languages, nor are there getters/setters

Adám

@dzaima Dyalog has getters and setters, and still passes the value through, even for "+=".
