Q: Alphabetically permute a string

Task Your goal, should you choose to accept it, is to write a program, that, given an input string, outputs every possible permutation of the letters in that string. I'm finicky with my output, so it should be sorted alphabetically, with no duplicates. Example: Input: buzz Output: buzz bzuz ...

@Geobits Can you crack this mysterious puzzle?

A: Code ladder, Cops

Python 2, 35 bytes, 10 numbers #__________________ riny __________ (how mysterious?)

Geobits

Well I don't python much and I don't know the object of the puzzle, so probably not until I change one of those things. Which I don't really feel like doing right now.

noɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC

@Geobits 0_o is how most people should react.

feersum

Are you sure you want to have so many underscores?

Challenger5

00:46

0_o

feersum

It's very easy to crack when you do

noɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC

@feersum Can you make riny not trigger a NameError?

feersum

Of course.

noɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC

@feersum How?

feersum

Put a string around it.

Geobits

00:47

@noɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC You asked the wrong person then I guess ;)

feersum

I can even let the error happen, since stderr is ignored.

noɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC

@feersum You can't. It's on it's own line.

xnor

you can also define riny in the line above, putting a newline first to get out of the comment

feersum

'''
multi
line
string'''

noɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC

@xnor You can't, the comment is the first line

xnor

00:48

C&R?

Challenger5

I still think Python should have a multi-line string syntax. It would be more efficient.

xnor

@noɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC I'd replace one of the underscores with an actual newline character

#
riny=3
riny
print 1

noɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC

@xnor That's allowed!?

feersum

I should stop doing this C&R because it's so boring...

Hardly any of the answers have taken any effort to crack.

noɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC

@xnor Isn't that a loophole?

Geobits

00:50

A newline is a character just like any other...

xnor

i don't see what prevents it: newline is a character

it doesn't say "printable character"

feersum

I wonder why almost all particpants to this challenge seem to believe the same thing.

Dada

I agree with xnor, this is legit

xnor

feersum used it in this crack

noɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC

@feersum It should be written.

xnor

00:51

if i make a similar cops and robbers, i'll allow cops to blacklist any number of characters

Geobits

It shouldn't need to be explicit. It's a character.

xnor

in python, with newlines, comments, and literal strings, it's hard to stop robbers from just dummying out code

noɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC

OK, CMC: do it without writing newlines.

DrMcMoylex

@feersum If you're looking for C&R to Crack, you can take a stab at my scrambled quine. Martin hasn't been able to figure it out yet, and it's currently winning (or tied)

feersum

@DrMcMoylex What is that?

Geobits

00:54

Or if you want a fruitless waste of time, I have an indefinite bounty on one of mine. But it really would be a waste of time.

I have one cop and one robber, and they were both really fun

Not that that's stopped you in the past....

Sp3000

@feersum You know how some CnRs are easy to write cops that are hard to crack, and some CnRs are hard to write cops that aren't easy to crack? Yeah, this one seems to be the latter, without resorting to any crypto-like ideas...

feersum

I added one where the solution is only digits, but not cryptographic.

I wonder how hard it is.

Sp3000

Well I meant crypto-like in the sense you're relying on presumably difficult to solve problems rather than making the challenge how to get the ladder (e.g. I considered putting one up which relied on assert, and already had print(+1) filled in, but that seems no fun)

feersum

@Zacharee1 Oh no, not you too...

feersum

What if I make the explanation first ;)

Geobits

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ You said what you said, I heard what I heard :P

El'endia Starman

(Tux already overused the respond-to-a-greeting-with-the-greeting-reversed message.)

Sp3000

I'd still want to do it because knowing the theory is different from having the code for it (the hard part seems to be less the Mersenne Twister and more figuring out how Python uses it in random())

feersum

That's correct.

Zacharee1

02:00

Huehuehue

feersum

Inverting the Mersenne twister itself is roughly 1/3 of the work.

I actually found copy-pastable code online for that part.

But it would have been straightforward enough and similar to the other two parts.

El'endia Starman

@Geobits Technically that id number includes stuff like post edits and tag wikis.

Geobits

Sure. But why ruin a good feeling with facts?

I don't know any other way to count it without access to deleted stuff though.

DrMcMoylex

Deleted posts still have an ID

Geobits

Well right. But I mean if we can't go by the id (which contains non-posts), then I don't know how to count them.

El'endia Starman

02:04

The logical way to do it is to request every single URL of that form with a script and count the questions and answers.

Geobits

Be my guest :P

El'endia Starman

Oh no, I already did that once with TNBDE. :P

Sp3000

@feersum How annoyed would you be if I cheated a bit to make the problem in your cop easier for me?

(by making the modulus smaller so the problem's more tractable)

feersum

Did I leave a loophole?

Sp3000

Not a complete loophole, but I can do \u0030, \x30 a few times to make it easier

feersum

02:14

It's only fair play if I did; I have added newlines to everyone else.

Go ahead.

Shoulda added r to the strings.

\u0030 doesn't appear to be an actual thing.

Sp3000

Oh right, Python 2

Hmm that doesn't help that much then

(only a few digits)

(btw I don't blame you for newlines, I only blame myself for forgetting :P)

@BernardMeurer that's basically boolean algebra in a nutshell XD

Doorknob

That seems about right

Bernard Meurer

@ConorO'Brien Lol, my analysis prof always tells us to have faith, so now I do it in all courses

Conor O'Brien

haha nice

Bernard Meurer

I didn't know how to prove something on my Linear Algebra exam, I just wrote "Proof: faith"

If I was a prof I'd have given myself a point

Geobits

The 2627 is a bit higher than I thought. That's 28% of all questions asked, where I'd have guessed 20% tops.

quartata

You don't think about a quarter of all questions get closed and roombad?

Considering all the off topic questions we get that actually seems a little low

Geobits

02:50

I guess. I try to have more faith in people. This is why that usually doesn't work out so well.

It may be that many of them get closed so damn quickly that I miss some. That would be a hat tip to the community and mods :D

I'm sure there are quite a few I don't see, just because I'm not in chat at the time.

@PhiNotPi Templates. It's like using a type as an argument

PhiNotPi

okay, didn't see the matching >

Doorknob

@Geobits And why is the code before it still syntax highlighted as if it weren't commented out?

Geobits

03:14

Yeah, that's what made me look at it twice.

Doorknob

Maybe someone decided to be evil and start the comment at the end of that last line offscreen, but end it on the next.

Geobits

In most IDEs the */ would be colored as well, also.

Conor O'Brien

apparently this is code for oculus rift

quartata

Damn, Pawn is just terrible. I can't believe people write plugins in this

Geobits

You can even see that green is for comments, by the half-visible line at the top, so a non-standard color scheme isn't an excuse here.

@quartata You mean this Pawn? On first glance I agree it looks terrible, but at least it's got a visual programming mode, amirite?

quartata

03:20

Yes that Pawn. Sourcemod uses a modified version of it that at least has strings but still

This is why I use SourcePython instead

Geobits

Oh god, the only docs are a shitty list of PDFs? Say it ain't so.

quartata

There are no structs. Instead you have to do this:

Conor O'Brien

@Geobits .txt would be infinitely better

quartata

enum members { ... }

new instance[<size>];
instance[<enum member>];

Stupid Markdown.

So basically arrays and enums are the closest thing to structs while maintaining sanity

Conor O'Brien

enum members { ... }

new instance[<size>];
instance[<enum member>];

quartata

03:25

Yeah I know but mobile doesn't have the fixed font button.

Geobits

Oh wow. Their math operations use an f prefix to mean fixed point, instead of using that prefix to mean floating point like most libraries. Way to be unintuitive.

quartata

Floats are only single precision too since all types have to fit in 32 bit cells.

Geobits

And then the float math library prefixes with float. So you have floatadd(a, b)

quartata

It's just awful and I can't believe people write major plugins (1000+ lines) in it

@Geobits That's becase floats aren't even types. It's a tag

Geobits

Oh I see....

Love this bit:

> In computer applications, rational values have limited precision,
regardless of how they are implemented. It is well known, for
example, that the value 0.1 cannot be represented exactly in the
floating point format standardized in IEEE 754 (the most common
format, and also the format used in this extension library).
In applied science and engineering, this is relatively unimportant
because the input values often originate from measurements or
approximative computations, which are imprecise to begin with.

ETHproductions

Related pet peeve: When pressing "(see full text)" adds nothing to the text

@quartata Quite suitable for today's world. Who's ever going to need more than one thread?

Downgoat

Okay well two things:

1) when you don't have valid language typed into language field and hit run, an uncaught error occurs

2) it looks like you are using some binary format for TIO v2 requests, can you describe it?

Dennis

Yeah, 1) had to be fixed.

Nathan Merrill

hey, if I have a KoTH with 3 "difficulty" levels (and 3 scoreboards), and submissions can participate in some/all of them, does that seem like a bad idea? I mean, we've never done it before, and it means I can't give out a checkmark...but I don't do that anyways

Downgoat

from my understanding of KoTHs, I'm not sure how difficulty levels would be enforced if I'm understanding you correctly

Nathan Merrill

it'd be a totally different KoTH

I'd run 3 similar KoTHs.

@ETHproductions perl dollar backtick

Nathan Merrill

each level of difficulty would mean the submission writer would need more code for the more advanced stuff

Dennis

04:01

@Downgoat The format in 2) is a bit convoluted. It's a mix of null terminated strings (language name, CLAs), strings prefixed by their lengths as 32-bit little endian integers (everything else), the number of test cases and CLAs, and a bit field at the beginning (reversed).

wat

From the fifth result:

> $` (dollar backtick) holds the part of the string before (to the left of) the regex match.

ETHproductions

Q: Magic mirror madness

Introduction I have a room full of magic mirrors. They are mysterious artifacts that can duplicate any item, except another magic mirror. More explicitly, a duplicate version of the item will appear on the other side of the mirror, at the same distance. However, if there is another magic mirror ...

Enumerate the binary matrices Your task is to write a pair of programs or functions. The first should take a nonnegative integer, and return a matrix where all elements are 0 or 1 (or true/false). The second should take a matrix of the same form, and return a nonnegative integer. The two progra...

Review Python code pls halp

import sys
import string

class Paradoxical:
    def __init__(self):
        self.co_ords = []
        self.current_grid = [0, 0]
        self.para_vars = {}

        self.counter = 0
        self.value = 0

        self.errors = open("errors.txt", "r")
        self.errors = self.errors.read().split("\n")

    def call_error(self, number):
        print("[Paradox] Error #{0}: {1}".format(number + 1, self.errors[number]))
        sys.exit()

    def square_process(self):
        while "[" in self.code:

It's for an esolang called Paradoxical that I'm making

If someone makes an Excel-based esolang they have to name it Excelsior

Hello?

Unless you need to split by \n specifically, you can do .splitlines() instead of .split("\n")

Quick skim says it looks nicely formatted, at least (can't run it atm though)

Qwerp-Derp

IMO it looks better than my previous version

TBH this just looks uglier:

import string

class Test:
    def __init__(self, code):
        self.code = code
        self.co_ords = []
        self.counter = 0
        self.current_co_ord = [0, 0]
        self.final_no = 0
        self.vars = {}

    def square_process(self):
        while "[" in self.code:
            for a in range(len(self.code)):
                if self.code[a] == "[":
                    square_check = 1
                    square_end = 0
                    for b in range(a + 1, len(self.code)):
                        if self.code[b] == "]":

That one seems like a hodgepodge of hacky code
