@Riker ah of course why I didn't think of that

Lembik

hi all

Okx

Is there a meta post on 'when answers should be downvoted'?

Lembik

I have an idea for a challenge but I need some help

Okx

Sandbox?

Kritixi Lithos

@LeakyNun but what would count as a "snippet" in Vim?

Leaky Nun

2:02 PM

@KritixiLithos no idea

Lembik

@Okx I could make a start there.. could point

good point

Kritixi Lithos

I wonder if I could combine vimscript and vim into one submission. If that is valid, I might be able to get one more number easily

Leaky Nun

-17

Q: Downvoting needs to change

As shown by a recent challenge, once a few people have downvoted a question (say, three or four) everyone else thinks that they should downvote too leading to incredibly low scores. I think we need a reform on how we downvote and/or what we downvote on. This will stop people from becoming dishea...

Wheat Wizard

Can any python expert find a way to make 14 for this answer?

Lembik

so... what's the best way to make a good challenge from codegolf.meta.stackexchange.com/a/12706/9206 ?

I would like to avoid running code on my computer as I only have a windows laptop so I assume I won't even be able to run most code

Kritixi Lithos

@Lembik maybe you should define what a Hamming distance is in your challenge

Lembik

@KritixiLithos will do

Leaky Nun

@Lembik you don't need to run the code on your computer if it is code-golf

Lembik

2:31 PM

@LeakyNun it's not very interesting as code-golf

it's interesting if you have to work out a quick way to solve it

Leaky Nun

so you intend to make it fastest-code?

Lembik

@LeakyNun well that would be good but can you do that without volunteering to run everyone's code?

or could it be code-challenge where the person who does it for the highest n wins?

Leaky Nun

@Lembik you can redirect every entry to TIO

Okx

If it's runnable on TIO, that has a timer

Lembik

is that allowed? Seems it would potentially kill TIO

whose PC does it run on?

Okx

2:33 PM

A dedicated machine

Leaky Nun

@Lembik it won't kill TIO

Lembik

what happens if two people do that at the same time?

Leaky Nun

there's no problem

Lembik

won't the timings be wrong??

or is it cpu time that is timed?

Okx

there's 3 timers

Leaky Nun

2:34 PM

Please ask @Dennis for the details

Lembik

I like the idea though.. could you help me do this?

I need to offer some nice way for answers to do this

Leaky Nun

@Lembik you just need to tell them to include a TIO link

Lembik

has this ever been done before?

for fastest-code questions

Leaky Nun

I've no idea

Lembik

maybe it makes a good meta question

Arjun

2:38 PM

Hey vsauce Michael here

@Lembik you can just state it instead of pinging me and waiting until we're both here :P

TuxCopter

Ok lol you win

orlp

@Lembik so the pairwise hamming distances between the prefixes and suffixes of a binary string of length n?

Lembik

@orlp yep

Dennis

@Lembik Unfortunately, I don't think this is a very reliable way of timing code. Even if counting CPU time rather than wall time, two processes running at the same time can affect, e.g., speed of memory access, especially if the data should already be in the CPU's cache. Finally, TIO currently runs user-supplied code on two different "arenas", and while they have identical specs, one is consistently slower than the other, by a rather large margin.

Lembik

2:43 PM

@orlp but capped at 1

@Dennis I wrote codegolf.meta.stackexchange.com/q/12707/9206

Luc H

guys, is it according to the stackexchange rules, allowed to downvote a question because you just don't like it?

orlp

@Lembik capped at 1?

Lembik

@orlp it is min(1, Hamming distance)

Okx

@Dennis Why's one consistently slower?

orlp

ah

Lembik

2:45 PM

so [0, 2, 0, 4, 0] became [0, 1, 0, 1, 0]

orlp

so basically

'how many prefixes/suffixes are pairwise equal'

Lembik

hmm no.. I must have a bug

2 secs

orlp

@Lembik there's no reason to introduce hamming distance here

Lembik

it is how many prefixes/suffixes have at most 1 difference

0 doesn't mean equal

I need to fix that

orlp

min(1, hammingdist(a, b)) <=> a == b

@Lembik hammingdist(a, b) <= 1

so 0, 1 becomes 1

everything else 0

Dennis

2:47 PM

@LucH I'd say that's the most common reason. As long as it's actually about the question (not, e.g., who posted it), I don't see any issues.

Lembik

right...I have a bug

let me fix it

Dennis

@Okx I wish I knew. Gremlins, probably.

Okx

Gremlins?

Erik the Outgolfer

~~what Dennis blames his sloppy coding to~~ the creatures that often randomly mess up with TIO

Luc H

@Dennis i thought you could only downvote because it was badly formatted or impossible etc, not just because you personally find it too easy while others do a great job at it.

orlp

2:49 PM

@Lembik if a, b are the prefixes / suffixes as i-bit integers

Lembik

@orlp ok I have hopefully fixed it. It was completely wrong before

thanks for helping me spot that

orlp

then your expression is !((a ^ b) & ((a^b) - 1))

a^b is bitwise differences

x&(x-1) is 0 if x has exactly 0 or 1 bit set, otherwise positive

then we invert that with !

Lembik

@Dennis if you have any suggestions for how to run challenges such as my sandboxed one they are gratefully received

Lembik

@orlp is this for my fixed problem?

orlp

2:52 PM

yes

Lembik

great :)

orlp

the i prefix of a word w is w & ((1 << i) - 1)

the ith suffix is

(w >> (n-i)) & ((1 << i) - 1)

Dennis

@LucH I'd normally cite the tooltip of the voting buttons, but those were made for Q&A sites, and PPCG isn't exactly a Q&A site. I base my question upvotes on whether I think that the challenge adds something to PPCG. I don't like questions that don't, so if I vote based of whether I like the challenge is debatable.

Leaky Nun

@orlp is the & here necessary?

I'm writing a similar implementation also

orlp

@LeakyNun strictly speaking, no

Leaky Nun

2:55 PM

@Lembik here is my implementation:

def f(n):
	res = set()
	for i in range(2**(n-1)): #WLOG fix the highest bit
		res |= {tuple([i>>(n-j) != (i&((1<<j)-1)) for j in range(n)])}
	return len(res)


for n in range(1,21):
	print(f(n))

TIO link

Output:

orlp

@LeakyNun the != was wrong

Leaky Nun

It differs from your provided solution significantly...

@orlp why?

orlp

he edited his question

he wants pairs of prefixes/suffixes that have at most hamming distance 1

Leaky Nun

oh...

Lembik

@LeakyNun yes sorry.. the description was screwed up before

Leaky Nun

2:59 PM

def is_power_of_2(n):
	return n&(n-1) == 0

def f(n):

Leaky Nun

Now the answers match

Okx

You might want to make a separate chatroom for all of this, it's getting a bit spammy

Leaky Nun

@Okx there isn't any other on-going discussions ATM

Okx

Never said you had to

orlp

3:00 PM

@LeakyNun is_zero_or_power_of_2 is the same without the if statement

0 & -1 == 0

Lembik

@LeakyNun maybe just give the link instead of all the code

Leaky Nun

@orlp wow

Lembik

but thanks for reproducing it!

orlp

I don't understand the fixing the highest bit part

Leaky Nun

@orlp well, S and ~S produce the same results for any bitstring S

orlp

3:02 PM

oh you fix it to zero

I was looking for the code to fix it to one haha

1-second improvement by not checking j=0 and j=1

Okx

@EriktheOutgolfer One of the first features of Neim, and the first time it's been used :P

Leaky Nun

@orlp for i in range(2, n)?

orlp

@LeakyNun yeah you could do that

I wasn't going for speed

Kritixi Lithos

fastest-code seems interesting

orlp

@LeakyNun I think you need n+1 though

Erik the Outgolfer

3:05 PM

@Okx it's even more than CJam! (CJam has 0-20)

Leaky Nun

now, instead of storing as tuple, we store as another bitstring

@orlp the results are the same

orlp

@LeakyNun that could be luck

Lembik

my question wants to be fastest-code

orlp

oh no it's not luck, the full string is always equal to itself

Okx

@EriktheOutgolfer Breaking records here :D

Lembik

3:05 PM

@KritixiLithos thanks :)

totallyhuman

:o is your question sentient?

Erik the Outgolfer

@Okx and how do you make a string? like, at least push codepoints to stack?

Okx

@EriktheOutgolfer You don't.

totallyhuman

don't tell me what to do

orlp

@LeakyNun we can skip 2 as well, range(3, n)

Leaky Nun

3:08 PM

oh no, storing as bitstring takes 2 more seconds

@orlp because 01 and 10 has a hamming distance 1?

orlp

@LeakyNun always at most 1

@LeakyNun how do you see the time?

Leaky Nun

@orlp for example, 2?

@orlp debug

orlp

@LeakyNun actually now I'm not so sure anymore

it just seemed from my tests it's always the same

Kritixi Lithos

@LeakyNun the time seems to vary quite a bit, when I ran it now it says ~12 seconds instead of ~15

Leaky Nun

@KritixiLithos indeed

orlp

3:12 PM

@LeakyNun oh no, I see my confusion

i = n-1 always seems to have more than 1 hamming distance

Leaky Nun

except for the all-zero bitstring

orlp

you'd think

oh no

I'm really silly

never mind =/

Leaky Nun

what? except for the all-zero bitstring, i=n-1 always returns false.

that's a nice observation. I don't get why you call yourself silly for that.

orlp

because that wasn't my observation >.<

Leaky Nun

whose observation was that?

orlp

3:17 PM

@LeakyNun I also don't necessarily think that's true

@LeakyNun yours, I had a simple bug in my code

Leaky Nun

@orlp mine was a typo. I intended it to mean j=n.

@orlp you're right. It only works if there are 2 blocks of contiguous letters

e.g. 000011111

@LeakyNun So why is it for i in range(2**(n-1)) instead of 2**n?

Leaky Nun

@KritixiLithos we fix the highest bit.

Kritixi Lithos

so you don't calculate when the highest bit is 1?

Leaky Nun

correct.

Kritixi Lithos

3:36 PM

why?

Leaky Nun

@orlp I'm thinking about reflecting S, but I don't really know how to implement it speedily

@KritixiLithos S and ~S are guaranteed to produce the same result

orlp

@LeakyNun there isn't really a fast way of doing it

or at least not a fast way that speeds up the whole thing, assuming I understand what you want to do

Leaky Nun

what I want to do is that, when we check S, we don't check its reflection

orlp

@LeakyNun it may be possible to iterate through all possible w in a different order such that all reflected S are at the end (and can thusbe skipped)

Leaky Nun

@orlp however, I have no idea how to do it
