Q: Quixels - Quantum Pixels

Introduction A quixel is a quantum pixel. Similar to a classical pixel, it is represented with 3 integer values (Red, Green, Blue). However, quixels are in a super position of these 3 states instead of a combination. This super position only lasts until the quixel is observed at which point it c...

@LeakyNun Haha. Complex numbers are used for that kind of indexing in MATL. 4L gives [2+0i, 0+1i], that is, [2, 1i]. 1i means "end", that is, the final element. If you wanted say elements from 2 to second-last you'd use [2, -1+1i]. That -1+1i means the last element minus 1. Does that make sense?

@Geobits My wife is upset about all the flying I'm doing without her

@ConorO'Brien Yep :-D But it's MATL, not Matlab. Matlab uses end, so it's more easily read: x(2:end-1) etc

Conor O'Brien

@LuisMendo oh, fantastic.

Luis Mendo

@ConorO'Brien Nope. It uses integer indices: x([1 2 4 5]). Or end-based indices: x(2:end-1). Or logical indices, that act as a mask: x([true true false true true]) removes the third element

Oh, I'm adding other ways to get it.

Doorknob

Ah okay

Well then I can't really answer your question without further context :P

quartata

11:26 PM

The first way is to apply an empty bottle to a natural patch of water (which I'll increase the spawn rate on)

You can get dysentery from this though (haven't decided the probability) if you don't use a water filter on it

Doorknob

Very nice :D

Leaky Nun

Why does this not work:

i;f(n){for(i=n;i--;)puts("/\\"[n%2]);}

@DJMcMayhem Is that a compliment or criticism?

quartata

The other way is a transpiration bag which is very slow but can generate water

Also I'll have a camel pack (which keeps you hydrated as long as it has water in it) and a ring of succulent form (equivalent of ring of slow digestion)

I'm also modifying the starting inventories for all the classes to start with plenty of water.

Well, not plenty. I'm thinking 4-5 bottles.

But definitely enough not to die right away.
