out of curiosity, is there like a standard way to remove errors while interpreting code

or is it just whatever works

Unrelated String

as in...?

Q: Bigram frequencies in text

Introduction This challenge is about producing a code to count the frequency of bigrams in a text. This is super useful in cryptography. In a brute force algorithm, this code may be called many times and as a result, must be optimised to run quickly. Challenge Challenge is in Python 3 and uses N...

What's up with ^? Is it an okay challenge?

It's well-written but strict...

And half looks like a homework problem

Idk what to say, someone else can deal with this

caird coinheringaahing

It could do with a bit of loosening of the rules (e.g. restricting to numpy will make the code naturally slower), but otherwise its mostly ok

As for being a homework question, there's no real way to be sure, and I prefer to err on the side of caution and assume good faith

emanresu A

True. On second thoughts, it's missing a lot of the hallmarks of a homework questoin, it's probably not.

caird coinheringaahing

@thejonymyster try { run_main_program(code, inputs) } catch {error}?

Yeah, the rickroll makes me think it isn't

emanresu A

@cairdcoinheringaahing Yeah.

thejonymyster

im sorry, i must have been reading something while typing

i meant comments lol

is there a standard way to remove comments while interpreting code

emanresu A

Btw, what's the deal with cryptography and encryption?

thejonymyster

not errors >_<

caird coinheringaahing

@thejonymyster if (token == comment_start) { while (token != comment_end) { token = next_token } }

assuming you've tokenised the code

@Adám Jelly, 13 bytes ØAp`ṡ2ċɗ@€s26

Adám

Nice.

caird coinheringaahing

The full song is a bit too long for the permalink and chat :/

Adám

Really? tio.run/…

caird coinheringaahing

With the lang link + code, yeah :/

Comes to 543 characters, chat's limit is 500

kA:Ẋƛ⁰$O;₄ẇ

Last 3 bytes can be removed if returning a flattend matrix is acceptable

caird coinheringaahing

01:15

@cairdcoinheringaahing Jelly needs a way to count substrings, ċ only works on characters :/

Adám

@emanresuA I can't read that. Feel free to explain if you want.

emanresu A

Uppercase alphabet, cartesian product with self, map count in input, slice into length 26 rows.

Adám

Easy. Nice.

lyxal

kA:Ẋƛ⁰$O;₄ẇ
kA          # Push the uppercase alphabet [A-Z]
  :         # and then push it again
   Ẋƛ       # over each item n in the cartesian product of those two items:
     ⁰      #     push the original input
      $O    #     and get the count of n in that
        ;   # end map
         ₄ẇ # and wrap that in chunks of length 26

^ if you want a token-by-token explanation

Adám

Thanks.

@emanresuA I mentioned that a little while back

It'd been suggested to ask on meta for encryption to be synonymized with cryptography, but I was too lazy to do so

emanresu A

Link?

Can we make encryption a synonym of cryptography?

TIL salted caramel wasn't invented until the late 20th century

@emanresuA kA:Ẋ$vO₄ẇ works for 9

because for some reason, explicit vectorisation actually works in that instance

emanresu A

Oof :p

Evil idea: A screensaver where the little box is arranged so that it just bounces back and forth between two opposite corners

emanresu A

That is evil

@cairdcoinheringaahing ah, tokenizing is the thing i do not know how to do yet ^_^ im probably doing it bad xd

So...I have an unopened pair of those apple wired airpod thingies they used to include with iphones. It includes a headphone-to-lightning converter. So what I'm wondering is...why couldn't they have put a headphone jack on the thingy itself so you'd use the adapter, instead of just putting lightning on it too (which is what they did). So you can't use it with other phones and/or laptops.

Wonder if it'd be worth it to buy a lightning to USB-C converter and chain it to a USB-C to headphone one.

lyxal

> wired airpods

yes

emanresu A

^

Redwolf Programs

That's basically what they are lol

lyxal

well if they're wired airpods, just turn on the wireless mode by cutting the cords

apple doesn't want you to know this, but doing so instantly inserts Bluetooth technology inside the earpods

Redwolf Programs

Wonder if I could get my doctor to inject a covid vaccine into it

To upgrade from bluetooth to 5G

emanresu A

02:02

Lol

lyxal

@RedwolfPrograms that's just silly

by doing so, you get back to the problem of not having a way to connect them to your phone/device

Redwolf Programs

@RedwolfPrograms But seriously, I might do this

lyxal

idk much about connecting that sort of stuff. I just use my wireless headphones

Redwolf Programs

I don't listen to enough stuff for headphones to be a smart investment

Although in a few years I'll probably need some since then I'll be going to college and I don't need my roommate judging me for my meme choices

lyxal

they don't have to be those high quality make the audio 69x better trendy brand type

just wireless

Redwolf Programs

I should just get airpods so it can smell like broke in here

lyxal

okay zoomer

side note: Binary Search Trees are cool until you start having to deal with encapsulation and a lack of lambdas/functional programming in C++98

emanresu A

Just transpile Vyxal to C++ and hand that in!

lyxal

bruh the assignment is due in 6 days, not 2 years

emanresu A

Use a Python-to-C++ tool then

lyxal

bruh the assignment is due in 6 days, not ~~2 years~~ 6-8 months

emanresu A

02:11

@NewPosts I'm temtped to answer in transpiled Vyxal

lyxal

do it

it'd be funny

emanresu A

Gonna make it a little efficient tho

lyxal

You're lucky it isn't code golf

Bubbler

Python-to-C++: hardcode Python code as string, link against CPython and run it as Python

lyxal

otherwise your submission would be at least 700k bytes

@lyxal I say 6-8 months, because I would not trust 2.4.1 transpiled code, meaning i'd be waiting for 2.6 to be finished

Bubbler

02:15

For a second I thought you're talking about Python version

Redwolf Programs

Hmm, the only way I can figure out to plug a lightning cable into an audio port requires three separate converters

Lightning to USB-C, USB-C to audio, and audio male-to-male

Costing a total of...$40

Might as well buy wireless headphones for that much >:|

Bubbler

And somehow the main site went down

emanresu A

Not for me... Is it back up for you now?

Bubbler

Then it's corporate firewall going crazy I guess :/

Even downforeveryoneorjustme.com doesn't open

So I can't check if it's down for everyone or just me, literally

@RedwolfPrograms Ascii art version of above image

Redwolf Programs

Doesn't render right for me then

emanresu A

@Bubbler Does data:text/html work?

@RedwolfPrograms Hm, that's weird

Redwolf Programs

@emanresuA It does

emanresu A

Sorry, wrong reply

Redwolf Programs

There's some sort of weird text wrapping

I think

Despite there being a horizontal scroll bar

emanresu A

Nah, it's because there's < in the text that gets sanitiesed

lyxal

VS Code was nice enough to throw some colours in

it thinks it's written in markdown

emanresu A

Well, better markdown than polish...

Why isn't there a "misinformation" option when reporting a YT comment

Like...if someone posts "giving away free bitcoin, send $1k to this address and I'll double it", what am I supposed to report it as...

And why is "child abuse" a whole separate option...can't that go under "harassment or bullying" or something? And what sort of comment could even fall under that category?

It kinda looks like spamton

Is that a deltarune reference?

yes

@RedwolfPrograms it's probably taken more seriously than the broader harassment? idk ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@emanresuA That still looks so wrong to me since I wrote it horizontally mirrored :p

I do see the sailing ship
