Q: Project Euler 21: Sum of amicable numbers optimisation

J. Cricks Let d(n) be defined as the sum of proper divisors of n (numbers less than n which divide evenly into n). If d(a) = b and d(b) = a, where a ≠ b, then a and b are an amicable pair and each of a and b are called amicable numbers. For example, the proper divisors of 220 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, ...

Q: Reduction of time for the code of sorting RGB and Depth images according to timestamp values

Ankit JaiswalI have RGB Images, Depth images and OpenPose Images(generated from RGB Images). The number of RGB and Depth images are different so I have to find the exactly which RGB images corresponds to which depth images. This is done using the time stamp values I have for both RGB and Depth Images. The pr...

One problem is the "not working" form is too tricky for its own good. The temp variable code is obviously correct. I had to resort to pencil and paper to see what the in-place swap was attempting. Since the in-place swap is unclear and probably less efficient, I'd reject it in code review. Having said that, I don't immediately see its error. — another-dave 10 secs ago

Welcome to Stack Overflow! Please visit help center, take tour to see what and How to Ask. You have a very large narrative and many questions, some are for code review. Please ask ONE question at a time and use a minimal reproducible example - you can click edit, then [<>] snippet editor and add a working example of ONE thing you need help fixing — mplungjan 29 secs ago

Welcome to CHAPTER #1 of The Loop, a new blog series from the Stack Overflow Community team. This post is a deep-dive into our research approach: what it used to be, what it is now, and how it continues to evolve. 

Learn more about The Loop in CHAPTER #0 (yes, our chapters are zero-based).

If you work on a product that’s ever benefited from research – whether that’s talking directly to users, analyzing experiment data, or any number of other research methods – you know how indispensable these inputs are for making the right decisions.  …

@spoonsearch: thanks. I think the confusion is that this site is for Question and Answer, and it sounds like you're looking for something more akin to code review or discussion since you already have an Answer. If abandoning the request rather than canceling gives you the leeway you need, then it seems like a reasonable solution. My only quick suggestions here are to add another longer Context timeout to the request itself so a Client.Do can't hang indefinitely, and look at the DefaultTransport too see all the defaults and how the Dialer is defined.. — JimB 12 secs ago
