Precedent says it's fine. There are already three Project Euler questions on this site and they were reasonably well received.
However you should mention in the title which problem the question is about, so Project Euler users who haven't solved that problem yet don't get spoiled.
@Mat'sMug Yes. It's essentially a restatement of that answer but using information from Project Euler's FAQ as evidence for that answer because a new answer was posted which attempted to use Project Euler's FAQ as evidence against that answer.
Wow, whoa...
So... the rate at which the brain processes images from the eye is apparently approximately 30 frames per second.
But the rate at which the eye captures images from light shining into is apparently approximately 220 frames per second.
Let me start by clarifying that I assume the question is whether a superhuman or any object of human size can render itself invisible through speed alone. And that the speed of said object must be $v\ll c$. From this, I assume that the object or person being viewed must spend a reasonably long am...
@Jim Since this is physics it might be worth mentioning that air friction with something moving fast enough to achieve any of the effects you describe is likely to be enough to vaporize whatever is moving that fast. Enough movement and they're likely to cook the whole room. Don't forget the sonic booms. Inertia: any superhuman with molecular bonds strong enough to hold them together while moving this fast would be immune to any conventional weapon. Finally, the fastest man-made thing was ~16km/s, which could travel over 500m in 1/30s, easily within the room posed in the Question. — Chris S2 days ago
My code is like following:
MySSLSocketFactory class :
public class MySSLSocketFactory extends SSLSocketFactory {
SSLContext sslContext = SSLContext.getInstance("TLS");
public MySSLSocketFactory(KeyStore truststore) throws NoSuchAlgorithmException, KeyManagementException, KeySto...
The speed required for you to become invisible to me is 0m/s if my back is turned to you. But that doesn't mean 0m/s is an adequate answer to the question — Jim2 days ago
@KyleStrand I don't understand the relevance of registering in the brain. When I'm off and daydreaming, the images that pass in front of my eyes are seen but my brain certainly isn't registering all of them, should I call the unregistered ones invisible? — Jimyesterday
I have read, that recursion in python works very slowly. Is it possible to change this recursion into a loop function, which will work faster?
My function is a little bit complicated, but I will try to show most important parts:
class Element(object):
def __init__(self, name):
self.name = nam...
Instead of simply stating that your mouth has touched the bottle, you could also suggest that the person should wipe it first.
"Can I have a sip of your water?"
"Sure, you might want to give it a bit of a wipe first though"
@Corbin Sometimes it feels like some users spend hours to come up with new questions for a Stack Exchange site...
Project Euler is about learning, I think I've learned more by reviewing Project Euler code than I would have if I would have solved them myself. — Simon André Forsberg2 mins ago
^^ Perhaps that's just me but that's how I feel about the Project Euler stuff
Some ALS foundation began this thing where you can either dump a bucket of ice water on your head and donate $10, or donate $100. Once you've done it, you challenge 3 more people to do it.
I think it's a bit manipulative and pressuring, but I seem to be alone in that as the internet is eating it up.
My facebook has been annoyingly full of it for 2 weeks now x.x
Apparently it's even bled into SE meta sites now. Gotta give whatever foundation started it credit. They definitely nailed it.
It definitely worked... And it annoys me way more than it should. It just feels a bit too much like when a friend asks you in front of other people to do something you can't socially say no to. It's not a question, so much as a demand, and that seems a little messed up.
@SimonAndréForsberg no, no. That's way too easy. It has to have some kind of false dichotomy of choice wherein both inconvenience and/or cost you, but you get to pick which way you like to get pressured into giving something away. That's the key to a truly annoying viral campaign. :p
the other challenges I've seen hasn't had that inconvenience choice alternative. Except for the alcohol-drinking one of course, then there was only one choice and all were with inconvenience
but that was the whole purpose of that one I guess
the main 'problem' with those challenges is that you are challenged to do something. It should be more optional
I would like to find a more efficient way to solve this problem. My current implementation has 3 separate loops through the data.
I'm creating an algorithm to check a collection of prices against an associated collection of minimum prices. Any price that is below the minimum must be adjusted up...
