For practice, I decided to write a run-length encoded string decoder. For example:
basic_run_length_decode("1A2B3C")
=> 'ABBCCC'
basic_run_length_decode("5A10Z10J")
=> 'AAAAAZZZZZZZZZZJJJJJJJJJJ'
It ended up getting long, but that's because I wanted try incorporating the partition-by function...

When working with geometric objects I like working with the shapely module (Shapely - PyPI). In here it is easy to create polygons and define union, intersection and differences. Like so:
from shapely.geometry import Polygon
x1 = [3, 3, 6, 6, 3]
y1 = [4, 8, 8, 4, 4]
x2 = [1, 8, 8, 1, 1]
y2 = [1...

This is because, at the start of my game, I want to be able to make as many player instances as I want.

It is sort of long, and it could probably be simplified by the use of external crates, b...

In the movie Zootopia, it was shown that they were using sloths for every position at the DMV (Department of Mammal Vehicles).
In the story why did they use sloths considering they are very slow animals?
So, here's a task. A background thread may or may not call all of it's listeners some time after sendRequest() was called (in other words sendRequest() schedules a possible event). The required function must:
