The Nineteenth Byte

I noticed an old question, An improved version of GolfScript, which asked, as a tips question, for people to suggest ways to improve GolfScript. This was a well-received question, but times may have changed. I'd like to ask a similar question about Pyth, for obvious reasons. I'd like to know whe...

@AlexA. That's a good idea

@Maltysen Catalog then? I feel like partitions is a fairly standard problem.

quartata

calls Rubios

Can I have liek 10 chicken tacos and 10 fish tacos pls?

Alex A.

who is Rubios

quartata

Oh I forgot you don't have them up in Washington

Rubio's Coastal Grill

Rubio's Coastal Grill, formerly known as Rubio's Fresh Mexican Grill, is a fast casual "Fresh Mex" or "New Mex" restaurant chain specializing in Mexican food, with an emphasis on fish tacos. As of 2007, Rubio's operates, licenses or franchises more than 190 restaurants in California, Arizona, Colorado, Utah and Nevada. Rubio's was voted "Best of the Best (Cheap Eats)" in the June 2008 issue of San Diego Magazine. Its headquarters are in Carlsbad. According to founder Ralph Rubio, he and some friends from San Diego State University were on spring break in San Felipe when he first encountered fish...

filthy plebian

Thomas Kwa

I think for one or both questions I should impose a runtime restriction. Is it possible to generate partitions without counting them?

Alex A.

12:44 AM

Ralph

Oh damn, Ralph is the name of the Rubio guy who started it :O

Thomas Kwa

So what does everyone say on integer partitions: catalog or not?

quartata

Catalogs don't exist anymore

Just do whatever

Thomas Kwa

Should it be restricted-complexity to polynomial time?

quartata

@ThomasKwa Yes

Thomas Kwa

I think I'll also disallow builtins that solve the problem exactly.

Alex A.

12:49 AM

@ThomasKwa ಠ_ಠ

Julia, 10 bytes: partitions

Thomas Kwa

It looks like the partition numbers grow superpolynomially, so it's not necessary to disallow Pyth's ./

Alex A.

> superpolynomially

Thomas Kwa

I won't have any restrictions on strict partitions, I think

quartata

Julia wins the built-in contest

Thomas Kwa

Maybe the slope goes to zero on that second graph, but I don't know.

Alex A.

If it was exponential, the log-scale plot would be linear, wouldn't it?

El'endia Starman

I think the log-log plot would approach linear if it kept going.

Maltysen

@quartata Pyth: ./

Thomas Kwa

@Maltysen you mean l./

Maltysen

true

but does that juila built in return length?

Alex A.

@Maltysen Length?

You mean the number of partitions?

Maltysen

yeah

and is it strict partitions? Pyth's isnt

Alex A.

12:56 AM

partitions(n) actually returns an iterator, but if you collect() it, it's an array of arrays.

So I guess you could do n->length(partitions(n))

quartata

@AlexA. IntegerPartitions returns an array of arrays

So that means Mathematica is shorter

ha

Alex A.

We need the number of partitions though

quartata

Oh.

Then Count[IntegerPartitions[#]]

Except I can't golf Mathematica

So there's probably a shorter way with @ notation

Alex A.

Julia, 24: n->length(partitions(n))

Maltysen

idk mathematica but I'm gonna guess Count@IntegerPartitions

Alex A.

12:58 AM

So Julia still beats Mathematica :D

quartata

@Maltysen That wouldn't work

Maltysen

i've never actually used mathematica before ;P

quartata

Count@IntegerPartitions@#&?

I think that's it.

Alex A.

I have. I bought a student version of it many years ago and realized soon thereafter that I don't like it compared to Maple.

Integer partitions! code-golf math integer-partitions restricted-complexity OEIS A000041 counts the number of partitions of the integers. A partition of a nonnegative integer n is an unordered list of positive numbers that sum to n. For example, 5 has three different partitions: 5, 4,1, 3,2, ...

Q: Is it a pangram?

Write a function or program that takes as its input a string and prints a truthy value if the string is a pangram (a sequence of letters containing at least one of each letter in the English alphabet) and a falsey value otherwise. Case of letters should be ignored; If the string is abcdefghijklm...

code-golf string

Trying to make an answer for this in O.

phase

@quartata "test" "est" - prints t, because est was removed

"westtest" "est" - prints wt, as all instances of est were removed

quartata

Oh I see.

So that's why this does nothing

Is there a way to make it more like remove each character?

Rather than a whole instance of it?

Cause if there is a way to do that...

Then O wins :P

phase

@quartata Like abc "minus" ac gives b?

quartata

@phase Yes.

Like ideally that link I gave you

Wait...

OK, more like this

o-lang.herokuapp.com/link/UV9HLQ==/…

That should output nothing instead of a

Is there any way to do that?

So it's like a set difference?

phase

1:20 AM

You could iterate through the alphabet set and remove it if it was in the input

quartata

:/

I might need another approach.

Either way I doubt it'll win now. Maybe I can hope for a tie..?

Rats.

So you can iterate through the strings like an array?

phase

@quartata You have to split it into an array with s (for the moment)

I was thinking something like Gs{n:V;Q_s{nV=VN?}d}d

quartata

I was thinking take the input iterate through the alphabet and subtract each char individually, then length the result

I guess 0 can't count as a truthy value though

phase

@quartata You could increment it ()) to make it one

quartata

@phase Yeah

Er

How do I iterate through the array :P

I can't read your C.
