Q: Test if a Gray code is Beckett

BubblerBackground An \$n\$-bit Gray code is an ordering of \$2^n\$ binary sequences so that adjacent sequences always differ by exactly one bit. A Beckett-Gray code is a special kind of Gray code. In addition to being a Gray code, it has the following characteristics: It is cyclic: the last bit pattern...

CMP/CMM: Which of SE, Codidact, or Top Answers would you suggest? (including two or all of them)
 
all of them, because they all contribute good content
 
Either of the others if you aren't invested enough to care that much about CGCC and its community, CGCC otherwise

I have to admit, at first glance, Codidact's Code Golf site is pretty nice.

Q: Score Tarzan's Olympic Vine-Swinging Routine

EdwardOlympic vine-swingers perform their routines in standard trees. In particular, Standard Tree n has vertices for 0 up through n-1 and edges linking each nonzero vertex a to the vertex n % a below it. So, for example, Standard Tree 5 looks like this: 3 | 2 4 \ / 1 | 0 because the rema...

in Jelly Hypertraining, 8 secs ago, by ChartZ Belatedly
CMC: Given a list A and an integer I, test if all elements of A are less than or equal to I. Your solution should work for lists with arbitrary depth (i.e. lists within lists etc.)
The part about arbitrary depth is brownie points for non-Jelly answers :)
 
@ChartZBelatedly Extended Dyalog APL, 2 bytes - brownie points: ⍱>
 
3:13 PM
@ChartZBelatedly as in {A: [1,2,3], I: 2} -> [true, true, false] or false?
 
@Wezl A = [1,2,3], I = 2 -> False
 
3:29 PM
jq: all(.<=$I) with input in $I, put a flatten| at the beginning for brownie points and wrap it in def f($I):...; for a function
for some reason arrays are greater than numbers so I can't use ..
if you replace less than or equal to with greater than or equal to, [(.A|..)>=.I]|all as a full program at 17 bytes, with brownie points and, unfortunately, operator precedence
 
@Wezl In a CMC, IO rules don't really matter, but on main, you can't take input in a variable :)
 
yes but in [(.A|..)>=.I]|all it takes input as an object {"A": A, "I": I}
 
I actually don't know if that's an allowed I/O format. Seems to straddle the line between variable and list
 
it should be the same as a list basically
this answer takes input via --argjson storing in a variable

@Lyxal did you know that only 1 in 10 people understand binary?

I'd bet one in a people understand hexadecimal :p
 
If 1 in 10 people understand binary and 1 in 10 people understand ternary, how many people understand both binary and ternary? :P
 
1 in 10, of course
In base 6 :p
 
3:57 PM
understanding binary and understanding ternary are not independent events tho
110 in 112 people who understand ternary also understand binary
 
I'd say closer to 110 in 111, tbh

Q: Liars and Guessers

ArtemisLiars and Guessers Github You have probably played, and may even have written a program to play, a simple number guessing game. If so, this probably looks familiar: Try to guess my number (1 to 100)! Please enter a guess: 50 Too small, guess again! Please enter a guess: 75 Too big, guess again! P...

 
I just thought of something really counterintuitive
Not sure how to explain it though
It makes it so that, with a certain initial amount of money, and the ability choose an amount to bet (with a 50/50 chance of either losing or doubling it) a number of times, there's an (2**x-1)/(2**x) chance of earning exactly $1
It makes sense because as you approach infinitely many times using it you will end up with the amount you started with on average, but it's kind of counterintuitive that you can win 99.9999% of the time (and lose a huge amount the rest of the time)

If our language does not support numbers, is outputting the next best thing allowed (outputting a stack where the length denotes a positive integer)? — user 5 mins ago
@user I have no idea if this is accepted or not, do you know if there's precedent or a default I/O method for this?
 
I'd say it makes sense if it's allowed if that's the closest thing to numbers in the language
 
@ChartZBelatedly I tried finding out about it on Meta, but there was too much stuff to dig through
Maybe for future challenges, I'll just add a flag to use the length of a stack and output a number, but someon should make a meta post if there isn't one already
 
why does your language not support numbers
they're pretty important
 
That's why it's fun to get rid of them :p
 
Numbers are not stacks. Therefore, they are not important.
 
9:54 PM
I'm working on a language that only uses arrays, so it's similar, although I'm doing it for golfiness rather than fun :p
 
The core principle of Stack Exchange is "Everything is a stack."
@RedwolfPrograms How does only using arrays increase golfiness?
 
That's classified.
Until I finish, at least :p
 
Aww, can't you help a fellow single-data-structure esolang designer out?
13
A: Default for Code Golf: Input/Output methods

jimmy23013Regexes may output via any captured groups Users can specify which subset of captured group(s) contains the output; it doesn't have to be just group 0.

Considering regexes may output via the length of their captured group (I think Deadcode has answers using that output format), I think it should be okay (at least if the OP specifically allows it).
 
If the OP specifically allows it you could output in any way :p
 
@user I don;t see anything wrong with it, I'm just not sure if it's been allowed before, and I don't want to be an example to be pointed to in the future
 
9:59 PM
@ChartZBelatedly That makes sense
 
Especially because that would allow 05AB1E (or other stack languages) answers to just output the final stack and claim they're outputting it as its length
 
I think for my language it should be fine since I specifically call an array of arrays with a specific length a number
(Or technically a "quantity", there will be multiple data structures for numbers)
 
Ugh, stupid new fangled languages that don't like "the concept of numbers" ಠ_ಠ
:P
 
Honestly I don't like numbers anyway
 
@ChartZBelatedly The difference there is that 05AB1E has numbers. The next best thing to a number in 05AB1E is a number, whereas for languages like mine, McCarthy's LISP, and other languages, the next best thing is a stack/list/etc. where the length denotes a number.
@ChartZBelatedly I'll have you know data structures were invented before numbers, young user.
 
10:02 PM
Numbers were good until they got all complicated
 
@RedwolfPrograms They got complicated at around 1.
 
@user Ancient civilisations would like to disagree :P
 
They get that way before 1 now, have you ever seen 0.5?
 
You only need 3 numbers: 1, 2, more
 
No, -1, 0, and 1
Those are better.
 
10:03 PM
I remember the good old days, when all we had were linked lists. Now it's HAMTs and binary trees and who knows what
All you need is the winning numbers on a lottery.
@RedwolfPrograms I haven't, I'm still stuck at 0.000000000000000...1 :P
 
Be back in a few hours I'm going to rederive all of modern mathematics with only -1, 0, and 1
Looks like Pi's gonna have to be 1
 
@RedwolfPrograms Pretty sure you also need some conjectures first.
 
Nope, just -1, 0, and 1, everything else is syntactical sugar
 
@RedwolfPrograms Pretty sure it's 4, but okay
@RedwolfPrograms Oh, you mean 2 is syntactic sugar for 1+1?
 
The heck's a 2
 
10:06 PM
@user Pretty sure it's 3, at least in Indiana :P
 
Hmm, I guess you could express all (rational) numbers using just 0, 1 and arithmetic operations.
@ChartZBelatedly The guy who suggested it is ... interesting.
 
@user Binary...
 
I had a proof lying around somewhere that said pi equals 4. Let me see if I can find it
 
@ChartZBelatedly This makes me feel slightly better about my middle school self
 
10:13 PM
I'm 70 inches tall and so is Joe Smith. Since we're both the same height, I must be Joe Smith, right? No. Just because $f(x) = f(y)$ doesn't mean that $x=y$. — MJD May 21 '13 at 1:19
Who measures their height in just inches?
 
@ChartZBelatedly Not a lot of people. So it's very likely this person is Joe Smith and is lying.
 
Who uses a combination of feet and inches as the input to a function?
 
We've got you, MJD!
@RedwolfPrograms Americans being forced to deal with legacy software? :P
 
@RedwolfPrograms The same people who think the imperial system is worth keeping?
 
Those people exist?
 
10:15 PM
gestures towards America
 
I always thought people all hated it deep down but keep using it because it's what they're familiar with
Source: Am American
 
@ChartZBelatedly I hate the imperial system, but I help with a code base that uses it and depends on a library that uses it, but we're keeping it because it would be harder to switch to metric.
Same reason COBOL is so widely used, I guess ⍨
 
@user That's just the sunk cost fallacy
 
And the same reason the voltage in American homes is so low (although this one's good, it's kept me from getting electrocuted multiple times)
 
Eventually you'll have to switch to metric for some reason or another, and by delaying it, you're just making it worse for the later people
 
10:17 PM
@user We do have 240v, it's just lowered for some circuits (lighting and NEMA-5 receptacles)
Quite a few things over here do use 240
Which makes some really fun things happen when one of the wires breaks but the neutral doesn't
 
@ChartZBelatedly It's not my fault - I've also tried getting them to switch to Kotlin too, but it's too complex for a team as small as we are.
@RedwolfPrograms Huh, I didn't know that
 
@user The trick is to find a new job before they have to switch :P
 
@ChartZBelatedly now say that with replacing metric with codidact/topanswers
 
I think the easiest thing to switch would be Fahrenheit to Celsius
 
@rak1507 Oh, I don't care about making things worse for future caird, he's a dick :P
 
10:19 PM
@ChartZBelatedly I don't get paid; it's a robotics club :(
@RedwolfPrograms Kelvin or nothing :P
 
@ChartZBelatedly lol fair enough
 
@RedwolfPrograms Rankine or death
 
@ChartZBelatedly I don't know about caird, but it looks like ChartZ certainly is :P
 
@user Well, I'll be back to caird in ~20 days :P
 
We do use metric in science classes where I am, which is kind of neat
 
10:21 PM
@ChartZBelatedly not going to switch to a different one?
 
I'm considering changing my username too now
 
@rak1507 Maybe at some point after going back to caird, I'm in no rush
 
@ChartZBelatedly You'll drink the potion to turn you back into Dr. Jekyll caird coinheringaahing?

“£©ṙƝiX|c3»

@RedwolfPrograms Your new usernames to choose from :P

@RedwolfPrograms Is it different in Texas or did they have to teach everyone the metric system multiple times there too?
 
How does Jelly's string compression work? It gives much more interesting results than Ash's
 
That's the compression script
 
10:27 PM
@ChartZBelatedly how on earth is that the compressed string for 'user'
 
@rak1507 It's just two chars, I think
 
oh the first bit is
 
@rak1507 That script takes the compressed string, inserts spaces through it and evals each one as a compressed string
 
Or maybe the / too
 
@ChartZBelatedly nice
 
10:27 PM
@ChartZBelatedly For some reason, it's blank for me
 
@user Fixed
 
all of mine are not interesting :(
 
@ChartZBelatedly Thanks
 
user compressed is “¡Ṁ/»
 
So is it basically just a dictionary?
 
10:28 PM
'rjvivid hambling aaronsburg' wtf is a rjvivid
 
Or does it use real compression algorithms
 
@RedwolfPrograms Yeah, combined with support for ascii characters and spaces
 
wow
those are good
 
I'm considering dropping my original idea for Ash's compression scheme and using a variable length encoding with the bits
 
10:30 PM
even if there is too much Aachen
 
Why does aachen appear so much?
 
You can't compress me into just three characters. My essence cannot be captured in mere unintelligible Unicode symbols, for it is infinite, uncontainable, and unknowable. What does a compression algorithm know of life, of love, of what it means to be human? Nothing, for it has no soul, no empathy, no understanding beyond its one directive: "Compress!"
Oh look, adding a space at the end of my compressed string gives "pellucidly Aahing"
 
hmm, possible challenge idea: given a list of usernames generated in this way return the original username
 
@RedwolfPrograms And another one at the start gives JarlsbergN- Aachen.
@ChartZBelatedly I have a feeling he tailored the algorithm to make them turn out that way :P
 
10:33 PM
I don't even know if the "programs" in my name is supposed to be a verb ("Redwolf programs lots of useless garbage"), or a noun ("This is one of Redwolf's programs"), or if it's neither
 
I've always assumed it was a verb
 
I thought it was a noun
 
@RedwolfPrograms Aachen is the first word in Jelly's dictionary. The decompressor works by repeatedly divmodding the base-250 string it's passed. If it gets to 1, it adds Aachen to the string. From the algorithm, I'm guessing a lot of integers hit 1
 
Like "We at Redwolf Programs make red wolf programs"
 
@RedwolfPrograms Both, depending on context
 
10:35 PM
hmm
I always thought you were redwolf and you program
 
My github username gives some weird ones
 
> eFlew cozey ankers
 
'a& Supremacistv abnaki'
 
I read that as "'e flew cozy, Ankers", aka "Ankers, my good friend, he was very cozy on his flight" but in a strong North English accent
 
lmao, I'm not kidding, when you compress my real name, the compressed string has 'sex' in it
 
10:41 PM
@rak1507 That's because it is at the very core of your being. (/s, of course)
 
ik lol
 
My real name (or one of them at least) gives "WylesPunchboards Aachen" :P
 
@ChartZBelatedly I'm interpreting that as someone telling Wyles to punch boards and then sneezing.
 
I put mine through the optimal compressor and it didn't compress
 
@ChartZBelatedly hmm somehow I don't think the recovery worked.. your name isn't 'overgoingsAbducting'
 
10:43 PM
Currently trying to see what I get when I inflate my username as a file compressed with my custom algorithm
 
Change "return min([
'“{0}”'.format(str),
Compress.go(dp[0]),
], key=len)" to "return Compress.go(dp[0])"
@rak1507 Crap, how did you know??? :P
 
I just changed '“{0}”'.format(str), to '“{0}aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa”'.format(str),
 
it must be that there's a shorter way to compress 'WylesPunchboards Aachen' than the way it was
 
Giving it another one of my real names, I get "top punishers Aachen" :P
@UnrelatedString You are the neWS :P
 
10:46 PM
@ChartZBelatedly I'm assuming you realise people can recover what your full name is
 
@rak1507 Only with some effort, which no one's going to bother with
 
@rak1507 My name is so common, and I use it so little online, that I'm not too worried
 
not that much effort
@ChartZBelatedly fair enough, ik some people are really crazy cautious about anonymity
 
@rak1507 I also use about 6 different name IRL (why I keep saying "one of"), so that makes it even more difficult :P
 
I think my name is somewhere on some GitHub repo so I've just sort of stopped trying too hard to hide it
 
10:49 PM
@ChartZBelatedly I did wonder why you were saying one of
 
Hell, if someone on the site wanted to doxx people, the "Contributions to OEIS" post on meta has the full, real names of multiple users
3
 
"towndouts"
 
I've got an uncommon name, but there's a somewhat well known comedian with my last name so they take up the first ten pages when you google my (full) name
 
Does anyone know how to hide stuff in chat?
 
my name is definitely online in places, but it's also trivial to find out anyway given basic information about me so I have stopped trying to hide it really
 
10:50 PM
@rak1507 Yeah, I go by caird at work, ChartZ at home and Erasmians at school :P
@user What level of hiding?
 
@ChartZBelatedly Wynotrecoiled aachen
 
@ChartZBelatedly and 'reerects'... nvm
 
@ChartZBelatedly Like a spoiler elsewhere (click on it and it shows, but you can add a warning first)

@user External links are the best way
 
10:51 PM
@ChartZBelatedly I'll keep that in mind, then
 
@ChartZBelatedly like this?
 
@ChartZBelatedly It was more for the profanity in one of the generated strings, but I think I'm going to do that too
 
@Lyxal Lemme just get my groove on :P
 
Interesting, when compressing the dictionary my algorithm compresses e to 4 bits, but t only requires 2
 
@ChartZBelatedly good
 
10:52 PM
and it turns out we do in fact have the same name
and people butcher it the same ways
even though he's in *Austria*
 
@UnrelatedString Some names are weirdly universal
 
The name itself isn't surprising
 
@ChartZBelatedly like Joe
 
The fact that people get it wrong the exact same way is
 
@Lyxal Who's Joe?
 
10:53 PM
Because it's not hard
At all
 
@ChartZBelatedly Like Cthulhu - you can summon it from anywhere in the universe
@ChartZBelatedly Joe Smith is MJD, remember?
 
Okay the first part of my new username if I used my current idea would be "gartacimtet", which really rolls off the tongue
Looks like I'm going to be trying a different approach
 
@ChartZBelatedly a 2013 movie apparently
 
@UnrelatedString I've had Americans call me "Chuck" before. My name begins with a J and doesn't sound anything like "Chuck". Weirdest thing ever :/
 
@ChartZBelatedly okay Chuck.
 
10:55 PM
And not just one American. It's happened multiple times ಠ_ಠ
 
I've never met anyone in America named Chuck
 
my name gets mispronounced loads
 
CMQ: What's the oddest mispronounciation of a name you've heard? (please don't give away your name)
 
@RedwolfPrograms Apparently everyone who works at Wendy's only knows people called Chuck :P
 
@ChartZBelatedly wow
 
10:55 PM
mostly because there's another very similar and more popular variant so everyone pronounces it like that
 
@user There were two people in one of my classes a few years back with their names pronounced the same. Serena and Seryna. A substitute teacher called the first one Serena (Ser-EE-na), and the second Ser-ai-na (Ser-EYE-na)...
 
@user Friend called "Khalsa". Back when Game of Thrones was popular, the number of times people called him "Khalasaar" (or similar) was ridiculous
 
sometimes people think I'm a car brand
3
 
If you remove all the letters from my name, this is what you get: ""
 
Also had a friend called Maia. Not exactly odd, but the number of people who called her "Mia" was stupidly high
 
10:58 PM
lmao
people just can't handle simple sequences of vowels
 
@user I've been called Josh, Vosh, and Yeesh before. My name doesn't have an o, e or i in it.
 
@user Yeesh, that must be rough :/
 
@user yeesh. That's harsh
@ChartZBelatedly fricking ninja'd
 
@Lyxal Get creative, this is my joke :P
 
@ChartZBelatedly i had it typed out before you sent yours
i just had to check what yeesh meant to see if i was right

11:07 PM
Maybe you can search for the HTML entity if you know what format they use?
 
@RedwolfPrograms Check out the Sandbox in just under 50 minutes and you can see :P
 
Posts with ampersands in them tend to do better than ones that don't, but they vary a lot more in quality.
Oddly, posts with the string caird in them are the opposite; they are consistently worse than those without it
Same goes for several usernames, actually
Including Redwolf
 
@RedwolfPrograms What do you mean? Are you talking about the Jelly compression or an SEDE query?
 
No, every question on CGCC (SEDE query)
But I'm using a tool on my laptop to interpret the results, rather than SEDE itself
 
@RedwolfPrograms what about Lyxal? You'll find that I actively improve posts.
 
11:15 PM
The string Dennis does way better than average, though.
Lyxal is between me and caird for average quality
 
because of 4 outliers
 
@RedwolfPrograms Can you check for "user"?
 
60% of posts with me in it have >=10 score
 
user varies a lot more, but tends to do better than average
 
what about rak1507
 
11:17 PM
Doesn't appear in any challenges
 
oh
 
@RedwolfPrograms You mean, score wise?
 
@RedwolfPrograms To be fair, "user" almost never refers to me, so it doesn't really mean much.
 
@ChartZBelatedly Yes
Your name was just the first I tried since it's less likely to collide with other words :p
 
Except for the one obvious outlier :P
 
11:20 PM
I think NullPointerException might be the lowest scoring string I've tried
Averages 1.667, across 3 challenges, when the average is just under 20
 
@RedwolfPrograms What about posts with <s>...</s> and without?
 
Post containing <s>.*</s> actually do better on average, although the quality varies much more
 
There have been 1997 Jelly posts since 2018-05-16 on the site :P
 
@ChartZBelatedly That answer of yours would have gotten more votes with a few strikethroughs :P
 
Tip: Add carriage returns to your line feeds. Challenges do better if they include them.
 
11:26 PM
@user I reserve strikethroughs for golfs I make a while after I post the answer :P
 
@RedwolfPrograms Windows users do better?
 
@RedwolfPrograms Nah, that'll just be my challenges skewing things (Windows user here) :P
 
@ChartZBelatedly Do it in 137 bytes :P
 
Oh wait I meant to actually get work done today

CMQ: How many users use your favorite language? Query
 
@user 118
Damn, I'm the 5th more prolific Jelly user
 
for some reason I don't even show up in the APL user list
 
And I'm 6th when ranking by "Tenure" O.o
 
@user 142, although most don't use it anymore
 
I'm second in "APL (Dyalog Unicode)" and "APL (Dyalog Extended)", as expected
Unfortunately the query cannot catch all generic APL answers
 
11:44 PM
@Bubbler There's a loose version (I think Select @@RowCount at the end gives you number of users)
Heh, I have the most Scala posts
Quantity over quality
 
11:57 PM
@user heh, I have 69 brainfuck answers
