There is no better antidote, at least for the worst hours and eclipses of the soul, than to conjure up … serious frivolity.—Friedrich Nietzsche
No, it’s not a new flavor of Unix shell. Rather, Winter Bash is an ancient tradition of Stack Exchange. (2011 is ancient according to Internet time.) Here’s how it works:
Starting right now, when you complete one of 30-odd challenges while logged on a participating site, you will be awarded the associated hat. To notify you, an icon will light up on the top bar. In addition, admire your hat collection on the Winter Bash 2014 site …
I was working on teaching myself some Scala and decided to tackle some Project Euler problems. The first four of these turned out to be one liners.
object Problem1 extends App {
println((1 to 999).filter((i: Int) => i % 3 == 0 || i % 5 == 0).sum)
}
object Problem2 extends App {

I was reading about the new nameof keyword in C# 6.
I want to know how can I implement INotifyPropertyChanged using this keyword, what are the prerequisites (of course other than C# 6) and how it will effect the performance of my MVVM application?
I've written a FTPHelper class to help teach me more about code strucutre. I don't know what I don't know so I would really value feedback on how I can be laying out and thinking about my programming better!
public class FtpHelper : BaseHelper
{
public FtpHelper(string ftpHostname, string ft...
I have a function that has, as input, a ranges object which may define from, to and limit. Note that it might have one, two or all three of them.
I want the output to be a saneRanges object, where if partial values are provided, the other ones are inferred.
For example if only limit is provided...
I'm using a list comprehension to return an object for its property. I know the object exists in both lists and no other item in the lists are shared but I don't know what it is so I can't just reference it from the list.
The current way I have it is:
[item for item in obj.list if item in other...
Given the following definition:
data Cons a = Cons a (Cons a)

deriving Show
I implemented the following attempt at its Applicative instance:
instance Applicative Cons where
pure x = Cons x Empty
Empty <*> _ = Empty

I'm developing an implementation of the FizzBuzz game as part of an edutainment game for a retro video game platform. In its manual, I want to mention the history of writing a bot for the FizzBuzz game as a programmer screening test since Jeff Atwood's blog post, including sample answers in a few...
So far, I've unlocked one of the secret hats. I'm wondering what secret hats we know of and our best guesses at how to earn them are.
This post is the result of reading through and following the LOLCODE Specification 1.2, and writing and executing my code on compileonline.com.
My "hello world" was going to be a fizzbuzz. I like it because it nicely illustrates the basics of a language - variables, operators, looping, condition...
Here is my code I'm working with.
