about 11k messages here lol

was having a conversation about pavel (friend from then) and was seeing how many message i had sent here

@Razetime yeah ik, i was active back in ~2016-2018

huh

ty

not using command blocks though

also, I can't remember, but if I solved a challenge in minecraft, A is that allowed, and B how would you count bytes?

damn taco is still here sheesh

afaik it is the only language that runs your code forwards then backwards to ensure that you didn't accidently write your code backwards

The only perfect language is pain-flak and you cannot change my mind

@hyper-neutrino you act like 90% of golfing langauges dont exist for this already

also, what is elm?

@RadvylfPrograms If you have time to answer one of two KotHs, would you prefer to answer one where you are comfortable with the language or one where you are just passably comfortable? most people would trend towards the language they are most comfortable right?

Honestly KotH are such hard challenges to run. if you have a complex idea for a KotH you just end up with very few answers because it takes hours to develop even a basic bot.

@RadvylfPrograms this just links to the entire KoTH

@RadvylfPrograms that is moderately complex? monkaS

@WheatWizard Its always good to come back, I might actually stay active this time lol. But ik that a lot changed with the community so it will be a bit bittersweet since a lot of the community i knew is gone

and caird is here also

its weird coming back here after about 4 years of inactivity lol, Wheat Wizard is still here as always lol

hello

have fun

Welp gl guys

@N3buchadnezzar a bunch of things, one big one was when they removed a moderator for civically disagreeing with a rule change they were proposing There was a few other things too

i think that'll be it for me then. This place was awesome but given what they were doing and that the majority of the community i participated in is gone idk if i want to remember it like this

Yeah having looked at what went on I can't blame them,

well, it has more to do with some of SE choices i think

The majority of the community that made me learn and play are just gone :(

I just was looking at meta and realized that most of the people that I enjoyed talking with on TNB and PPCG are all gone.

Yeah it was pretty nuts, i got an alert of my phone and was able to get it the next day. And i am not in any of the high priority groups

Just wait till the Covid 1.2 patch comes out, bug fixes and patches the vaccine exploit

Was able to get that a month or so ago

noice

@cairdcoinheringaahing need to drink more of it and it would be fine

How about you?

My C++ won't write to a file like it should

good, collage is being a bitch though

its been a while lol

Hey there

F

also ty for the help

@hyper-neutrino its refined brute force. You take the 9 boards and check to see what ones are valid and then you go and replace the next null value on each of the valid boards so at the end you are left with every possible solution

24:00 doesn't exist.

ohhhh

oh wait

yeah

The first 9 arrays it returns are the ones printed as it generates then the last 9 are the final result

tio

instead it currently just returns 9 boards that are the same and the null is just replaced with a 9

so for a smaller board you would take

       [null, 1]
and return
       [1,1],
       [2,1],
       ... ect

so I already shared my code so i might as well explain. the function takes in a 9x9 array of numbers from 1 to 9 with some occasional numbers being replaced with null. The functions job is to find the first null value and return an array of 9, 9x9 boards with the numbers 1-9 replaced where the null is.
