NOT really :)

Leaky Nun

@Qwerp-Derp depends on what you mean by "simplify"

Qwerp-Derp

@LeakyNun Less operators

Leaky Nun

you have only 3 operators

don't be too greedy

Doorknob

@DestructibleLemon I would maybe say that C is my favorite language, in general, or at least one of the languages I like the most (for certain definitions of "favorite").

user165474

a AND NOT (b AND c) =
a AND (NOT b OR NOT c) =
(a AND NOT b) OR (a AND NOT c)

Adám

12:06 PM

@Qwerp-Derp a > b AND c

user165474

Essentially a AND NOT (b AND c) means that a is true and one of b or c is false

Qwerp-Derp

What's your favourite language?

user165474

Python

user165474

(well that's mine)

Mayube

@Qwerp-Derp that's a tricky one actually, last year I would've said C#, but now... hmm

Qwerp-Derp

12:07 PM

@Adám Edited

I personally like Clojure a lot :P

user165474

Mayube

meh, Clojure is just JVM Lisp

Q: Surrounded and reversed

The task In this challenge, your task is to determine whether some string occurs as a substring of a given string both surrounded by another string and reversed. Your input is a non-empty string S of lowercase ASCII letters. If there exist non-empty strings A and B such that the concatenation A...

user165474

wowie Java is shorter :o

Mayube

I don't think Java can implicitly Bitwise a boolean

Adám

APL: a>b∧c

user165474

@Mayube in java, booleans don't act like ints, unlike in Python; nor vice versa, like in C

Mayube

right, so can java bitwise a boolean without casting it to something else?

user165474

12:11 PM

no

Mayube

so your & should be &&

user165474

@Mayube no

Mayube

& is bitwise AND, && is boolean AND

user165474

& works on booleans too; it's the non-short-circuiting operator. && short-circuits which is sometimes better (like a != null && a.toString().equals('test');)

Qwerp-Derp

@Mayube Whoa there h8r, Lisps are awesome :P

user165474

12:15 PM

@Qwerp-Derp I still remember when we were practically tied in rep ;) :P

Mayube

@Qwerp-Derp I didn't say they aren't, I just thing Clojure is basically Lisp + the worst part of Java

Qwerp-Derp

I'm not very active on PCG now, I'm occupied with other things

@Mayube What's the worst part of Java?

Mayube

JVM

Qwerp-Derp

But Clojure has good interop with Java...

user165474

CMC: a implies b

user165474

12:17 PM

@Qwerp-Derp Ah. Okay. Understandable :P

Adám

@HyperNeutrino APL: ≤

user165474

>.< nice

user165474

Python: lambda a,b:not a or b

user165474

Java: (a,b)->!a|b

Leaky Nun

@HyperNeutrino lambda a,b:a<=b

user165474

12:18 PM

oh

Leaky Nun

I thought you saw the solution.

user165474

oh wait APL doesn't have an implies builtin

Leaky Nun

Now do it in jelly.

user165474

darnit that was dumb lol

Leaky Nun

oh and I'll close your CMC as a duplicate of my logic gate challenge

user165474

Q: Golf all the 16 logic gates with 2 inputs and 1 output!

For example, the gate A and B is a logic gate with 2 inputs and 1 output. There are exactly 16 of them, because: each logic gate takes two inputs, which can be truthy or falsey, giving us 4 possible inputs of the 4 possible inputs, each can have an output of truthy and falsey therefore, there ...

user165474

Oh yeah that one!

Leaky Nun

@Adám what... that's just... b implies a

Adám

12:19 PM

@LeakyNun Exactly, but HN ninja'ed me.

@HyperNeutrino It does, but it has been extended to all reals.

user165474

oh yeah and then there's this

user165474

@Adám ah :P

Lembik

@LeakyNun did you see some of the interesting answers to the ab+c challenge?

Adám

@LeakyNun The leaderboard appears broken.

Leaky Nun

@Lembik I still didn't see the A={2^n} one

Adám

12:22 PM

@Lembik Also logical AND and OR have been extended to all numbers (including complex)

Leaky Nun

@Adám this is the vaguest error ever

user165474

@LeakyNun ¬|

Lembik

@LeakyNun I am not sure I understand. I don't think that does very well does it when you include C

user165474

Leaky Nun

@HyperNeutrino what language

Lembik

12:23 PM

@Adám As a concrete example, I want to take the product of an array of n complex numbers

@Adám I can't find any sane way to implement this so that it is fast

Leaky Nun

@Adám use the ppcg userscript leaderboard

user165474

@LeakyNun Jelly

Not surprisingly, ¬| works in both Jelly and Anyfix.

Leaky Nun

@HyperNeutrino Dennis did B implies A in 1 byte

Lembik

12:26 PM

in python what is the right syntax for {a*b+c for a in A, b in B, c in C} ?

Adám

@Lembik ×/

user165474

@LeakyNun oh well must try to get that

Lembik

@Adám sorry I don't understasnd

Leaky Nun

@Lembik reduce by multiplication

user165474

@Lembik [a * b + c for a in A for b in B for c in C]

Lembik

12:27 PM

@LeakyNun Right.. the problem is that gcc and clang don't vectorize it well. So it doesn't take advantage of sse/avx

@HyperNeutrino ah yes! Thanks

user165474

@LeakyNun Fixed your leaderboard

user165474

@Lembik no problem :)

Leaky Nun

@HyperNeutrino xie xie

Lembik

@LeakyNun so I would have to write using intel intrinsics (or gcc/clang versions )

user165474

@LeakyNun :P bu ke (?) qi

Leaky Nun

12:28 PM

@HyperNeutrino sure

Adám

@Lembik Some of our most recent speedups are by using vector instructions. Yeah, the C compiler doesn't "get it", so our coders had to do it manually.

Leaky Nun

@Lembik what is this for?

user165474

also I've heard "bu yong xie" be used

Lembik

@LeakyNun I want to compute the permanent of a matrix quickly

@Adám I don't even really understand how to do it manually as it then seems you need different code for sse and avx for example

ICC works well.. I just don't have it

Adám

@Lembik J: +/.*

Leaky Nun

12:30 PM

@Lembik in what language?

Lembik

maybe I could learn how to use inline assembly and steal the assembly from ICC online :)

@LeakyNun C but only because I can't think of a better language

@Adám I don't understand it when you just post characters!

I need words :)

@Lembik you

Lembik

Adám

@Lembik We have all kinds of special cases… Next up is using a different representation for decimal floats depending on system architecture.

Lembik

but I bet I have given more away than you!

Leaky Nun

@Lembik J is a language. +/.* is the command.

Lembik

@LeakyNun does the J compiler vectorize complex arithmetic well?

user165474

12:32 PM

Ah :P You have more rep though because I only have a decent amount of rep on 2 sites; the rest are all assoc+1

Kritixi Lithos

@LeakyNun I thought that was APL

Lembik

@HyperNeutrino but how much have you given away :)

Leaky Nun

@Lembik I think so

2 mins ago, by Adám

@Lembik J: +/.*

In general, J doesn't mean APL.

Lembik

@LeakyNun I doubt it.. but unless it is on godbolt I will never know

user165474

@Lembik not much, only 350 in 4 bounties

Kritixi Lithos

12:33 PM

ಠ_ಠ missed the "J:"

Lembik

unless you can show me the assembly you get from taking the product of an array of complex doubles?

Adám

@KritixiLithos In SAX (SharpAPL) it would be +.× (monadic)

Lembik

@HyperNeutrino hmm.. how do I count the total I have given away?

Kritixi Lithos

I have given away 500 rep in one bounty

Adám

@Lembik (Interpreter.) Not sure. Dyalog has two former J devs but none of them are in the office today. It is open source though, so…

Lembik

12:35 PM

can you see how much I have given away?

@Adám the basic problem is that the gcc devs seem to think that people who do complex math shouldn't code in C

which is just stupid

user165474

@Lembik from your top 6 sites, none

Lembik

@HyperNeutrino from ppcg?

Adám

CMC underhanded: make J mean APL

user165474

@Lembik a bunch of sites

user165474

@Adám #define J APL

user165474

12:37 PM

Lembik

@HyperNeutrino no sorry I meant how much on ppcg

user165474

@Lembik also none

Lembik

codegolf.stackexchange.com/users/9206/…

not none :)

user165474

...

Leaky Nun

@Adám looks like a dead man to me

Adám

12:37 PM

@Lembik Both Dyalog APL and J are written in C, so somewhere in there, there's complex math written in C.

user165474

Lembik

right .. with terrible simd code :)

Adám

@LeakyNun Wouldn't that be ×.× ?

Lembik

do I win? :)

user165474

wow you've given away more rep than you have lol

user165474

well I mean there's no "winning" or anything

Leaky Nun

@Adám tomato tomato

Lembik

@HyperNeutrino yep.. I see no value in rep

@LeakyNun Either.

user165474

@LeakyNun ok, will try it out

user165474

why do I remember there being a builtin for it?

Adám

@HyperNeutrino There probably is, since J has /.

Leaky Nun

@Adám sorted by first occurence?

Adám

@LeakyNun Sure, but really any order would be fine.

Kritixi Lithos

1:01 PM

this might be a nice challenge on main

Adám

@KritixiLithos I thought that it was trivial in more langs than APLs.

Leaky Nun

@Adám sorted by first occurrence, Pyth, 15 bytes: jmj;+dfqd@QTUQ{

Adám

Nice.

Kritixi Lithos

that doesn't look as trivial ∧∧

Adám

@KritixiLithos How would you do it in APL if you wanted sored by letter?

Kritixi Lithos

1:03 PM

but then again, I might underestimate the power of golfing langs

@Adám that would be interesting

Adám

@KritixiLithos I can see two approaches.

@LeakyNun ok this is getting hard...over 29 already :(

betseg

@musicman523 it'a actually a game, and dosomething is actually usleep+puts. i'm trying to time how cfast the user reacts, but every input method collects the things the user wrote on usleep

musicman523

@betseg This is a synchronization problem that I don't think can be solved. Even if you can clear stdin, by the time you print "Go!" and start timing, the user could have typed more

betseg

then i guess i'll write "plz dont cheat and type while the program sleeps thx"

musicman523

I think the right way to do this is with some sort of keyboard listener, where every key press is logged with a timestamp and you simply ignore key presses that occur before the start of the round

@BusinessCat +1, that is very neat

Mayube

@totallyhuman also you know the spec never said the :q had to be followed by a newline

@EriktheOutgolfer so do you comprehend it now?

Erik the Outgolfer

erm not exactly yet...you make the spaces and interleave with the string or something?

Leaky Nun

@EriktheOutgolfer no, look at the third-to-last monad I used

I've been looking at it for a while, and I still can't figure out why it works though.

Mayube

@totallyhuman now I feel bad cos he outgolfed you :C

Leaky Nun

@EriktheOutgolfer builds from diagonals

Hey it was a good run, we both did well!

Erik the Outgolfer

@LeakyNun that's what I meant...i.e. apply diagonals

@Mayube the spec for your question says each possibility has a non-zero probability of being chosen. Is it okay if the probability depends on the platform (i.e. ':q!' would never be chosen if running in Jython, and ':x' would never be chosen in Cython)

Mayube

@musicman523 in that case the code would be invalid on either of those platforms
