code-golf random
Minesweeper is a puzzle game where mines are hidden around a board of nondescript tiles with the goal of identifying the location of all mines. Clicking on a mine loses the game, but clicking on any other tile will reveal a number from 0-8 which signifies how many mines directly...
@EriktheOutgolfer Mendo is first surname, Tomás is second surname, Luis is given name. So it would be Mr. Mendo, or Mr. Mendo Tomás. I know the Spanish naming convention can be confusing to people from other countries :-)
Hello, I've got a question on equivalent output for a question. I have a question that specifies output as a 3x3 array and somebody is asking if a flat 9 element list would work. There's already a couple answers to the question, so I feel like allowing that is changing the rules at this point. Is this sort of thing okay to do or not?
@aoemica You have specified output as a 3x3 array; and a flat 9-array is something different. I would probably not allow that at this point. If you do, just notify the other answers in case they can use the relaxed rule to lower their byte count
I was trying to solve the "What surrounds my Minesweeper tile?" question in J. I came with an initial (long) solution, but cannot make the '?' (deal) verb work as I want inside the finction: f=._3]\](4&}.@],[,4{.])(8?8){8{.1$~] 8?8 works fine in the interpeter and gives a different permutation of the list 0-7, but in the function it just remembers the result of the first invokation, for example 5 0 7 3 6 1 4 2 and uses it for each subsequent call to the function. How can this be fixed?

So what to do with them?
Base 18 & Decimal traffic light
Given a number n<180, output the n/10 part and the n%10 part in 7-seg.
7-seg shapes:
000 222 333 555 666 777 888 999 AAA CCC EEE FFF GGG
0 0 1 2 3 4 4 5 6 7 8 8 9 9 A A B C ...
Challenge
Given the order of the function (2nd, 3rd or 4th) and 3,4 or 5 points on the function, solve for a,b,c(,d)(,e).
Example
y = ax² + bx + c
P(0|1)
Q(5|7)
R(8|9)
Results in the following equations:
I: 1 = c
II: 7 = 25a + 5b + c
III: 9 = 64a + 8b + c
Results in:
a = -1/15
b = 23...
@Downgoat Just a heads-up in case you didn't notice yet (just ignore me otherwise), your VSL's website certificate seems to have expired 13 days ago (at least that's what Safari mobile tells me).
I'm thinking maybe for a+++++b I could just make it a++ + ++b because that's the only one that would possibly work other than a++ + + +b and a + + + ++b or like a + + + + +b)
@Soaku yeah that's what I was thinking
and then probably for more than 3 since a ++ ++ is an error, just turn the rest into binary addition
maybe for 5 or more make the first and last 2 into unary post- and pre-increment and then all the middle ones become binary add
does a+++b have many applications in golfing? I'm not planning on making Proton particularly useful for golfing but I don't want to force errors on certain things that might prevent golfing with those features
@Zacharý proton 2.0 was a thing but not really because I never got much work done on it so calling this proton 3.0 doesn't make sense because proton 2.0 was never really a thing, so it's proton 2.0 2.0
code-golf quine string sorting
A sort of cyclic program to string together
Write a program that sorts a string.
However, it does some other things too:
When given a non-sorted string (that is not your source code), outputs the string in non-descending ASCII code order, as expected.

hi... more OT... when I open a pdf file in chromium it is in "continuous" mode which means you see lots of pages on one page. Is there some way to get it to be one page at at time?
Challenge :
Display / Write / print the name of your language using ASCII art and make it look 3D.
Input :
You are not allowed to take any input,
Output :
The name of language in 3D using ASCII art.
Example :
The example is given for C (it is easy to right and is small).

CMC: given a list of nested lists of integers, return the first element at each depth, sorted by their depth. E.g. [4, [[2], 9], [5, [-1, [0]]]] -> [4, 9, 2, 0]
hacky but it works :P the way it works is because it tries to delete a string. so variables without a value unify (i.e. their value is set to it since the variables can take on any value) with "", and are deleted. since values are guaranteed to be integers, we're fine with using a string here
