It was a basic java lesson. We had four values that we stored in a array. We had to make some calculations with the values. Then we had to sort those four values. That's the solution our teacher proposed:
if (arr[0] > arr[1]) {
int temp = arr[0];
arr[0] = arr[1];
arr[1] = temp;
}
if (arr[1] > arr[2]) {
int temp = arr[1];
arr[1] = arr[2];
arr[2] = temp;
}
if (arr[2] > arr[3]) {
int temp = arr[2];
arr[2] = arr[3];
arr[3] = temp;
}
if (arr[0] > arr[1]) {
int temp = arr[0];
arr[0] = arr[1];
arr[1] = temp;
}
if (arr[1] > arr[2]) {
int temp = arr[1];
arr[1] = arr[2];
arr[2] = temp;
}
if (arr[0] > arr[1]) {
int temp = arr[0];
arr[0] = arr[1];
arr[1] = temp;

Ruby’s fanciness bit me in the butt today. It’s pretty rare, but often confusing AF when it happens.
array = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7]
array.count +1 +2
# => 1
What the fuck?
array.count +1 +2 +3
# => 1
What the fuck?
+1 +2 +3
# => 6
Okay.
(array.count +1 +2 +3)
# => 1
What the fuck?
(7 +1 +2 +3)
# => 13
Okay...
array.count + 1 + 2 + 3
# => 13
Alright, so spaces matter here...?
((array.count) +1 +2 +3)
# => 13
But not here!? ... Oh. I think I know what’s going on.
Array#count
Returns the number of elements. If an argument is given, counts the number of elements which equal it using ==
Well fuck me.
Ruby is seeing `array.count(+1+2+3)` instead of `array.count()+1+2+3` since `+1` is a value, not an operator followed by a value as is the case with `+ 1`.
Now, why was I using +1 +2 instead of adding some spaces like I normally would? So they would match what was in the comment next to them for easier reference. Heh.
Future dev, I did this for you! So this is all your fault. :|36 -

Come up with a bad version of flipping a bool's value. (value = !value)
I'll start with a bad way of doing it in C# (.NET):
char[] bca = boolWert.ToString();
if (bca.Length == 4 && bca[0] == 't' && bca[1] == 'r' && bca[2] == 'u' && bca[3] == 'e')
{
boolWert = !bool.Parse($"{bca[0]}{bca[1]}{bca[2]}{bca[3]}");
}
else if (bca.Length == 5 && bca[0] == 'f' && bca[1] == 'a' && bca[2] == 'l' && bca[3] == 's' && bca[4] == 'e')
{
boolWert = !bool.Parse($"{bca[0]}{bca[1]}{bca[2]}{bca[3]}{bca[4]}");
}
else throw new Exception("y e s");4 -

While I was exploring multiplication tables I stumbled on something cool.
Take any power of 2 on the multiplication chart.
Now look at the number in the bottom left adjacent box.
The difference of these two numbers will always be a Mersenne number.
Go ahead. Starting on the 2's column of a multiplication table, look in the bottom left of each power of 2 and get the difference.
2-2 = 0
4-3= 1
8-5 = 3
16-9=7
32-17=15
etc.
While the online journal of integer sequences lists a lot of forumlas, I just wrote what came to mind (I'm sure its already known):
((2**i)-(((2**i)/2)+1))
The interesting thing about this is it generates not only the Mersenne numbers, but if you run i *backwards* it generates *additional* numbers.
So its a superset of mersenne numbers.
at i = 0 we get -0.5
i=-1 -> -0.75
i=-2 -> -0.875
i=-3 -> -0.9375
i=-4 -> -0.96875
And while this sequence is *not* mersenne numbers, mersenne numbers *are* in this set.
Just a curious discovery is all.10 -

Question - is this meaningful or is this retarded?
if
2*3 = 6
2*2 = 4
2*1 = 2
2*0 = 0
2*-1 = -2
then why doesnt this work?
6/3 = 2
6/2 = 3
6/1 = 6
6/0 = 0
6/-1 = -6
if n/0 is forbidden and 1/n returns the inverse of n, why shouldn't zero be its own inverse?
If we're talking "0" as in an infinitely precise definition of zero, then 1/n (where n is arbitrarily close to 0), then the result is an arbitrarily large answer, close to infinite, because any floating point number beneath zero (like an infinitely precise approximation of zero) when inverted, produces a number equal to or greater than 1.
If the multiplicative identity, 1, covers the entire set of integers, then why shouldn't division by zero be the inverse of the multiplicative identity, excluding the entire set? It ONLY returns 0, while anything n*1 ONLY returns n.
This puts even the multiplicative identity in the set covered by its inverse.
Ergo, division by zero produces either 0 or infinity. When theres an infinity in an formula, it sometimes indicates theres been
some misunderstanding or the system isn't fully understood. The simpler approach here would be to say therefore the answer is
not infinity, but zero. Now 'simpler' doesn't always mean "correct", only more elegant.
But if we represent the result of a division as BOTH an integer and mantissa
component, e.x
1.234567 or 0.1234567,
i.e. a float, we can say the integer component is the quotient, and the mantissa
is the remainder.
Logically it makes sense then that division by zero is equivalent to taking the numerator, and leaving it "undistributed".
I.e. shunting it to the remainder, and leaving the quotient as zero.
If we treat this as equivalent of an inversion, we can effectively represent the quotient from denominators of n/0 as 1/n
Meaning even 1/0 has a representation, it just happens to be 0.000...
Therefore
(n * (n/0)) = 1
the multiplicative identity
because
(n* (n/0)) == (n * ( 1/n ))

So in Ruby, everything is passed to functions by value. However, when you manipulate objects, you're actually manipulating references. A simple example:
```
a = [3]
b = a
c = a
b.push(2)
print a
print b
print c
# => [3, 2][3, 2][3, 2]
```
Here's a more complicated example from the problem I was solving:
```
table = Array.new(5) { Array.new() }
1.upto(5 - 1) do |i|
1.upto(5 - 1) do |j|
table[i] = table[j]
end
table[i] << rand(1..6)
end

heres something interesting:
The golden ratio is 1.618...
If you're not familiar with it, doing 1/goldenratio
the result is 0.618...
It gives you back the float component exactly.
Discovered that it is actually part of a series.
First of all:
2-(((5-sqrt(5))/2)-1) =
1.618033988749895 -> thats our golden ratio
In other words:
(2%gold) =
0.381966011250106
While:
((5-sqrt(5))/2) =
1.381966011250105
Ok, now we're getting somewhere. We can turn these into variables
First of all, lets see if we can get the golden ratio back out:
2-(((5-sqrt(5))/2)-1) = 1.618033988749895
Okay good.
The formula looks something like
j-(((i-sqrt(i))/2)-1)
Where j = (i*2)+1
That means we can easily figure out what j we need from our i value. (i-1)/2 = j
We run it back far enough we get
1-(((3-sqrt(3))/2)-1) =
1.3660254037844386
Thats the golden ratios little brother. Doesn't look anything like it, but it is part of the series.
And I found a boat load of research documents scattered *all* over the net, where this number and others in the series inexplicably crop up in power series, in chemistry, and elsewhere. Just looks like random floats if you don't know better.
We can actually go lower in the series:
0.5-(((2-sqrt(2))/2)-1)
1.2071067811865475
At the lowest positive value for j, we get
0-(((1-sqrt(1))/2)-1) = 1
It's kinda elegant.
I even wrote a little script to do the conversions:
def gr(k):
....i = k
....j = (i-1)/2
....return j-(((i-sqrt(abs(i)))/2)-1)

the following..
>>> 1.39094974939078**2
1.934741205330274 +/- 1
and
((1.39094974939078**(pi-0)))

Wherein I disprove Goldbachs Conjecture (in one specific case)
golbach conjecture:
every even number is the sum of two primes
lets call the primes p and q
lets call our even number p+q=n
we can go further by establishing two additional variables
u=p-1, v=q-1
therefore every even number is the sum of u+v+2, according to goldbach's own reasoning.
in the simplest case...
p=2, q=2, p+q=4
u=1, v=1, u+v+2 = 4
We can therefore make a further conjecture in the simplest case every sum of two primes, less 2, is the sum of two composites. This likely has connections to the abc conjecture for a variety of reasons. But leaving ancillary discussion aside for a moment...
We can generalize to a statement that every even number is the sum of two odd numbers. And every odd number greater than 1 is the sum of an odd number and an even number.
Finding an even number that is not the sum of (p-1)+(q-1) would therefore be equivalent to disproving the goldbach conjecture. Likewise proving every even number is the sum of (p-1)+(q-1) would be the equivalent of proving it.
Proving all even numbers greater than 2 are the sum of two composites + 2 would be proof of goldbachs conjecture, and finding any example or an equation that proves an example exists such that *some* subset of even numbers are NOT the sum of two composites +2, would disprove the conjecture.
Lets start with a simple example:
2+2=4
because 4-2=2, and two is not the sum of two composite numbers goldbachs conjecture must ipso facto be false.

If I've wildly misapprehended the math, please, somebody who is better at it, correct me.
Honestly if this is actually anything, I'd be floored to discover no one has stumbled on this line of reasoning before.8 -

Not nice, Plug… not nice! You define a Plug Module with 2 functions (init/1 & call/2) and the result of init/1 is passed in as the second argument of call/2… but init/1 is executed in compile time and call/2 in runtime.
WHY?!?!
I can't think of any other behavior that… well… behaves that way!
It's not even in the official docs (¬_¬)1 -

Just found out that something like this would actually work in Java:
int a = 2;
switch(a) {
case 1:
int b = 1;
break;
case 2:
b = 2;
}
I know about the variable scoping part, but that doesn't means if the language allows this kind of shitty code you should use it.. Fuck took me 15 mins to resolve the merge conflicts. As during merge the 1st case was partially removed. And the code was filled with these kinds of logic. This could have been done in a minute without the shitty code..4 -
I feel a bit confused rigt now.
Did i misunderstand something with this random little excercise?
" Write a Java program to find the index of a value in a sorted array. If the value does not find return the index where it would be if it were inserted in order. Example:
[1, 2, 4, 5, 6] 5(target) -> 3(index)
[1, 2, 4, 5, 6] 0(target) -> 0(index)
[1, 2, 4, 5, 6] 7(target) -> 5(index) "
Here is what i did lol:

This morning, I tried to abstract myself from my computer while trying to calculate sqrt(1.81).
I came up with what I thought to be a genius method. I tried to find B such as (1+B)^2=1.81. Then I ended up calculating the discriminant of 1+2B+B^2 and had 4*1.81. Sounded funny at first, but upon calculating the positive solution amongst the 2 possible ones, I ended up with (-2+2sqrt(1.81))/2 = ... sqrt(1.81)-1. Upon replacing in the initial equation, one gets (1+sqrt(1.81)-1)^2 = (sqrt(1.81))^2 = 1.81.
I'm sorry for having let you down, dear pasokon. Please forgive me.2 -

DailyCodingProblem: #1
Given an array of integers, return a new array such that each element at index i of the new array is the product of all the numbers in the original array except the one at i.
For example, if our input was [1, 2, 3, 4, 5], the expected output would be [120, 60, 40, 30, 24]. If our input was [3, 2, 1], the expected output would be [2, 3, 6].
this is my quickly solution in php:
$input_array = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
echo('INPUT ARRAY:');
print_r($input_array);
echo("<br/>");
foreach($input_array as $key => $value){
$works_input_array = $input_array;
unset($works_input_array[$key]);
$result[] = array_product($works_input_array);
}
echo('OUTPUT ARRAY:');
print_r($result);
outpout:
INPUT ARRAY:Array ( [0] => 3 [1] => 2 [2] => 1 )
OUTPUT ARRAY:Array ( [0] => 2 [1] => 3 [2] => 6 )5 -

I want your opinion about designing a web.
What is better for you?
1) A web page with 2 files (e.g. page1.html and page2.html), so the client must send a request for each content.
2) A web page with 1 file (e.g. page.html) with all the content in divs with 'display: none' and switch between them wth javascript.

People hate on Python a lot. I just used the Python ternary operator for the first time. I found it easier to read than the C++ ternary operator:
0 if i==0 else 2 if i==segmentMax-1 else 1
vs
i==0 ? 0 : i==segmentMax-1 ? 2 : 1
I think Python did a good job in this case.18 -
so... self-referential arrays.
do you know any languages that have them? thoughts?
what I mean is (in pseudo-c# syntax) :
string[] r = new string[]{ "1", "2", self[0] + " and " + self[1] };
which would result in an array with items:

Assumption. Screens are wider and wider, bigger and bigger.
Solution 1: Make more one-page layout sites like there is no space on sides.
Solution 2 support solution 1: Make everything 2-3 times bigger so there can't be space on sides.
Solution 3 support solution 2: If there is some free space, call it neccessary white space.

I have a question regarding file redirects 2>&1 and 1>&2. I know that file descriptor 1 is std o/p and 2 is std error and that we're redirecting one file descriptor to another.
But why do we do it? What are their use cases? Wouldn't the file to which redirection is setup get too clunky?
Analysis of the file would also become a bit difficult. And wouldn't having errors stored in a separate file make it easier to interpret and fix them?8 -

Question about conditioning my new android lithium battery.
I dont understand what's happening with my phone. Have old Xperia Z3 D6603 (running android 6.0 marshmallow).
Had problems with battery since it was not lasting even 5 minutes so bought a new battery from ebay and installed it yesterday.
So first time I put it to my phone it showed that it had 70% of charge. I've read in battery description that I have to discharge the battery and recharge 3 times.
First time I wanted to discharge from 70% to 1% and with a battery discharge app + youtube 1080p videos + wifi signal it took only around 1 hour and phone was at 1%. From 1% till complete discharge it took me extra hour and then phone died.
I plugged it to charge and after 15 minutes it showed that battery now is at 100% (which is insane, it should take 2-3hrs to charge it up to 100%). So I charget it for 2-3 hrs ignoring that it said 100% already.
I discharget it from 100% to 1% in 1 hour and now again phone is stuck at 1% and it took me 2 more hours to discharge phone until battery died completely.
I don't believe that this behaviour will fix itself. How can I fix this problem so that battery percentage would be distributed evenly? Now it drops from 100% to 1% in 1hr and then from 1% to 0% in 2 hrs.3 -
