@flawr When I hover over the button, a div is supposed to appear.

I think this line does not work:

.dropbtn:hover + .dropdown-content, .dropdown-content:hover {
    display: block;
}

@Qwerp-Derp .dropbtn is in the same element as .dropdown-content so you cannot combine them with +

Argh, CSS is frustrating

How can I make this work, though?

Also I recommend using MDN instead of w3schools (<- there is a lot of bullshit)

@Qwerp-Derp place them in the same div?

put dropbtn and dropdown-content in drop-stuff

@Qwerp-Derp like so: w3schools.com/code/tryit.asp?filename=FGSWCQQQA5FV

Yeah, but I need to group the p and the button as one group

Do I have to use JS for this?

8:22 AM

you can still make a div around the p and button

but you have to use the :hover on that div instead

but I'm by no means an expert in CSS, I'm sure there is a ton of wizardery

But I want the hover to only work on the button

@Qwerp-Derp Try taking a look at this

@Mayube That's the website I got the thing from, I already read all of that...

indeed

@Adám brief explanation?

@LeakyNun Sure. ⍳≢ are the indices, e.g. 1 2 3 4 5. (-⊢⌊⌽) is the negated min of the arg and its reverse, 1 2 3 2 1. ⊢↑¨⍨ take from each of the letters (taking too many pads with spaces). ⍉↑ combine list of strings in char matrix and transpose.

The ∘s are just to tie things together for the right order of evaluation.

Jim

@Adám What is the reverse?

Q: Is the current time or date with modulo random enough?

@Jim ⌽1 2 3 4 5 gives 5 4 3 2 1. By "arg" is meant the argument of the parenthesised inner tacit function.

I strongly advise you to run the output you get from your program through a hashing function; the question lists the desired hash of the output, together with a base64 of the desired output

either would work in a way more effective than visual inspection to see whether it's correct

@WheatWizard: in case you missed it: you reviewed actual, red-flagged spam as "Looks OK"; please be more careful with your low quality posts reviews

I know it's important to clear the queue of legitimate posts, but that's no excuse not to read them

@ais523 I copied the exact string from the question to use to work on my answer and searched for the string it output on the question's page to ensure it was an exact match.

Searching through the answers, every one of them contains the exact string included in the question so what makes them valid but mine invalid?

@Shaggy: your string base64s to `15DXkdeS15PXlNeV15bXl9eY15nXmteb15zXndee15/XoNeh16LXo9ek16XXpten16jXqdeq`, the base64 of the intended output is
`15DXkdeS15PXlNeV15bXl9eY15nXm9ea15zXnted16DXn9eh16LXpNej16bXpden16jXqdeq`

let me reformat that so it's a bit clearer:

15DXkdeS15PXlNeV15bXl9eY15nXmteb15zXndee15/XoNeh16LXo9ek16XXpten16jXqdeq
15DXkdeS15PXlNeV15bXl9eY15nXm9ea15zXnted16DXn9eh16LXpNej16bXpden16jXqdeq

see the difference near the middle?

you could have done that step yourself, rather than complaining

@Shaggy note in the comments that somebody pointed out that the codepoints of the desired output are not perfectly in order, wheras the latin alphabet, which you used, is

@ais523 I'm not complaining, I simply don't understand. I used the exact string to build my answer, ensured that the output was that exact string yet, somehow, it still isn't that exact string.

it's because of the RTL nature of hebrew, copy-pasting doesn't always work perfectly

@Jim I'll see it later

10:14 AM

@Mayube Therefore the problem is with the question asking us to output that exact string, no? When what they mean is output a slightly different string.

in fact that's exactly why there is a base64 and SHA hash offered

^

@Mayube If there's a need for them, then the word "exact" should have been omitted from the question completely.

And, I still don't comprehend how the 2 strings are simultaneously the same, but different! Can someone please explain?

They're not the same

Stencil codes are a class of iterative kernels which update array elements according to some fixed pattern, called a stencil. They are most commonly found in the codes of computer simulations, e.g. for computational fluid dynamics in the context of scientific and engineering applications. Other notable examples include solving partial differential equations, the Jacobi kernel, the Gauss–Seidel method, image processing and cellular automata. The regular structure of the arrays sets stencil codes apart from other modeling methods such as the Finite element method. Most finite difference codes which...
