Unkmar: What measurment are you given of the circle? radius, diameter, circumfrence?
Unkmar: What is the given information? angel in degrees or radians?
Unkmar: if angle is in radians, Just multiply angle by radius.
Rodrigo_the_coder: need help for angle input. coders strike back.
MadKnight: u can just reset your code
jacek: good morning
jacek: are you mad, knight
CopperFr: shadow of the madknight
Krryptonian: i am new to codingame
JBM: we've all been
Krryptonian: :joy:
professional_dumbass: is there a problem with my ide
professional_dumbass: code editor
professional_dumbass: i don't see people who submitted
jacek: mhm
jacek: Automaton2000 do you even submit
Automaton2000: is it because of the way
ThunderbirdOne: is it the way though Automaton2000?
Automaton2000: i don't get what you're saying
Whatar: why are we still here Automaton2000?
Automaton2000: somehow i have a question, how do you know if i got it
Flat_Erick: Why am I not promoted even thou im rank 1 in my league and ive beaten the boss easily?
PurCHES5: cuz u need to wait for a while
Flat_Erick: Do i need to be online?
PurCHES5: there should be a downcount on the top left corner of your IDE
Flat_Erick: Ive just been promoted xD Thanks mate
PurCHES5: np
PurCHES5: good luck
Flat_Erick: You too ;)
jacek: CSB?
Bob: CSB -> -3v
jacek: Automaton2000 whats -3v
Automaton2000: if a unit is on an inactive cell at the start
TheCodeKid123: good morning yall
TheCodeKid123: Automation2000 what is the first coding language created?
eulerscheZahl: you have to spell the name correctly to get an answer
tab-completion can help
eulerscheZahl: aut[tab] => Automaton2000
Automaton2000: what would be the same as the ones used during the event. your final score may thus differ from your ...
TheCodeKid123: oh but what is it
jacek: how first compilator was compiled?
eulerscheZahl: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bootstrapping_(compilers)
2ndwolf: it would be nice to have our replays in another window, for us with 2 screen
2ndwolf: the debug mode is convenient but having to switch from fullscreen to ide isn't optimal
eulerscheZahl: why don't you just click the 3 dots below the replay?
2ndwolf: ooo you'r eright
2ndwolf: I clicked that before but because it said share I didn't realize it was what I needed
ils: captcha is still not working
Uljahn: ils: can you see recaptcha here?
http://patrickhlauke.github.io/recaptcha/
eulerscheZahl: i see a school bus
2ndwolf: lol my bot beats bronze league 1 boss but I'm loosing ranks in arena
2ndwolf: (coders strike back)
TheCodeKid123: bro program an A.I
TheCodeKid123: I am the only one that is not a mod wow i am ashamed of myself
2ndwolf: if(TheCodeKid123.chat()){
2ndwolf: answer();
2ndwolf: }
TheCodeKid123: what?
2ndwolf: there u go, here's an ai
2ndwolf: just gotta work out the specifics
TheCodeKid123: Lol
TheCodeKid123: Wow
TheCodeKid123: i should of said to make a robot :(
2ndwolf: aren't those the same thing
TheCodeKid123: But i am not a robot that's why
TheCodeKid123: if(2ndwolf.chat()){ answer(); }
TheCodeKid123: lololololol
TheCodeKid123: I am not a bot
TheCodeKid123: Hey what language are you the best at
2ndwolf: gs1
TheCodeKid123: really i am only good at english and spanish
TheCodeKid123: i don't know how to code
2ndwolf: pilluelo
TheCodeKid123: Callate gatito
TheCodeKid123: You know spanish wow
2ndwolf: I learned that one to answer to people who'd call me a maricòn
2ndwolf: for laughs
TheCodeKid123: lol thats all you know haha
2ndwolf: I don't know much but I had lessons in high school
TheCodeKid123: Well i know you will learn
TheCodeKid123: Do you know a website where i can code that is not Unity or Buildbox and besides this one?
Angelbilly: hi there
TheCodeKid123: hi
TheCodeKid123: Do you know a website where i can code that is not Unity or Buildbox and besides this one?
TheCodeKid123: send me the link
TheCodeKid123: w
2ndwolf: we understood first time I think
2ndwolf: I learned to code on graal XD
2ndwolf: honestly it sucks now so don't code on graal
TheCodeKid123: I am not sure of that that why i typed again
Insufficient: what sort of coding do you want to learn how to do
TheCodeKid123: python
Insufficient: for what purpose
TheCodeKid123: JavaScript
TheCodeKid123: games and websites
Insufficient: honestly for those applications probably do some of the online courses
Insufficient: codingame is good too for games :)
Angelbilly: yes i am learning java script with online courses and books
Angelbilly: there are not many websites that are free to do that
TheCodeKid123: yeah but what about websites
2ndwolf: oh
2ndwolf: eloquent javascript
Insufficient: try udemy or coursera
2ndwolf: is a very good resource
TheCodeKid123: i know Codingame for games but i don't know for websites
TheCodeKid123: coursera did not work for me
Angelbilly: yea eloquent java script is good but i thought it was a little complicated for beginers
2ndwolf: just search eloquent javascript, the book is free on their website
2ndwolf: really?
2ndwolf: it starts from the basics
2ndwolf: there are some chapters that flew over my head but it's ok, it makes it a complete book
TheCodeKid123: thanks guys yall are a big help
Angelbilly: yes i agree i would recomend eloquent java script
Insufficient: also there are actually a ton of good youtube videos on web development etc, just have an explore
Insufficient: also my friend is a game dev and he taught himself and did game jams on itch.io
2ndwolf: ludum dare <3
Insufficient: so yeah dig around playing with game engines like unreal, unity etc
Angelbilly: im just finishing python and i am learning html and java script but i got a long way before i could be a great programer
2ndwolf: notch is a ludum dare contestant :P
2ndwolf: or used to be
Angelbilly: one questions what do you think is the best gui
TheCodeKid123: what gui
Angelbilly: because the other day i wanted to export a program to my computer using tkinter but the computer thinks is a virus and it doesnt make me use it as a stand alone program
TheCodeKid123: i have no idea but i use tynker too
TheCodeKid123: And how do i use Coursera
TheCodeKid123: and udemy?
Angelbilly: if i'm not wrong you gotta pay for udemy i guess, i'm not sure though
TheCodeKid123: I know you have to pay wich i do not want
TheCodeKid123: wgat about coursera
Angelbilly: the same thing i guess
Angelbilly: you gotta pay
TheCodeKid123: oh well i can't use itch.io either it blocked for me
DBDuy: how do i save ongoing project guys ?
TheCodeKid123: idk
2ndwolf: test it
TheCodeKid123: i am noob at coding
PovilasDauksys: how to change int to string in c#?;/
TheCodeKid123: what??????????????????????????????????????????:confused:
2ndwolf: have you tried googling it.........
TheCodeKid123: Can mods see what people chat in DM
TheCodeKid123: no
AntiSquid: how's your game TheCodeKid123?
TheCodeKid123: my game?
AntiSquid: the one you wanted to make
jacek: The Game?
TheCodeKid123: I am very bad at coding is all i am going to say about it
TheCodeKid123: how come you can chat red
jacek: because hes the mod
jacek: and speaking red when angry
TheCodeKid123: 2ndwolf is not a mod and had chatted red
jacek: he was angry
jacek: specifically at you, TheCodeKid123
MadKnight: say red to TheCodeKid123 Automaton2000
Automaton2000: i think it is a great ide
TheCodeKid123: How do you do it :rage:
TheCodeKid123: plz tell me
TheCodeKid123: Automation say red
eulerscheZahl: Automaton2000 say hello
Automaton2000: i guess you would need to use some form of it
TheCodeKid123: Automaton say red
jacek: AutomatonNN can you say red to someone
AutomatonNN: that was a lot of time to read
TheCodeKid123: huh can yall plz tell me
jacek: alt+f4
eulerscheZahl: AutomatonNN can tell you
AutomatonNN: what is the first time i came here?
TheCodeKid123: i don't have F4
eulerscheZahl: even Mac users have an F4
TheCodeKid123: i don't have f4
TheCodeKid123: help
eulerscheZahl: i'm hungry. and the good news is I have beans :)
TheCodeKid123: please i have a chrome and it don't have f4
TheCodeKid123: lol
jacek: hi hungry, im dad
TheCodeKid123: plz
jrke: two automation ?
TheCodeKid123: Automaton2000 how do i type red
Automaton2000: just make sure your bot is not very good at it
e1213: Automaton2000
Automaton2000: it's ok to have a nice day
eulerscheZahl: and the bad news is i don't have bread
eulerscheZahl: (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻
TheCodeKid123: Automaton2000 you are a bot
Queuebee: :bread:
Automaton2000: at the top of the leaderboard
jacek: bread with beans?
eulerscheZahl: well, toast
TheCodeKid123: Beans and bread is delicious
eulerscheZahl: afk buying some
jrke: try bread butter
TheCodeKid123: i got to go bye
jrke: b-bye
jacek: or butt breader
Illedan: 2048 done euler?
Illedan: Oh, new multi :D
Hjax: i was just talking to someone about an anime that has a lot of penguins
Angelbilly: hi guy i have a question do you how i can replace end="" in the return statement in python
Illedan: Wood2 :tada: Just have to wait for 100 % :zzz:
eulerscheZahl: yes Illedan
i think it's ready
Illedan: Cool, did you manage to code something to fill the board perfectly?
eulerscheZahl: no, my solver is still pretty basic
Illedan: Aiit, maybe I'll try later :)
eulerscheZahl: right now i try to simplify the testcases for sokoban and put that one up for approval
eulerscheZahl: do you think 2048 is ready? or should i keep it WIP for another week?
Illedan: Give me a few days to test. I feel it might be very easy, but I might be wrong :)
eulerscheZahl: :ok_hand:
eulerscheZahl: the alternative: make it a puzzle too
Illedan: Yeah
eulerscheZahl: https://www.sourcecode.se/sokoban/levels
that "696" seems easy enough
eulerscheZahl: i don't want another space maze
jacek: noeone wants :v
Hjax: in 2048 if you work out the seeds in the test cases cant you just precompute everything?
DomiKo: won't there be problem with slow output?
eulerscheZahl: i even give the seed as input and it's all publicly available on github
jacek: you timeout, Illedan
Illedan: OH
Hjax: so its definitely best to just solve offline then isnt it?
Illedan: Pushing
eulerscheZahl: the point is: there is no way to hide the seeds. the contribution itself is always accessible and shows the validators
eulerscheZahl: that's true for all optim problems sadly :(
jacek: so it only takes that guy with meta mcts to get highest score?
Hjax: i wonder if a 2048 multi is possible, both sides have a board, and choose where to place the tiles on their opponents board
eulerscheZahl: you still need an offline solver that performs well. i'd love to force players to reach the scores purely online, it's just not possible by the design of CG
eulerscheZahl: hm, that sounds interesting
jacek: or maybe give seeds for 20 moves, then they need to query new seed for another 20 moves
eulerscheZahl: but are 300 turns enough?
eulerscheZahl: Jacek it's still either hardcoding (always the same list of seeds) or random validators
Hjax: i recall someone made an AI that maliciously placed tiles in a 2048 game
eulerscheZahl: i don't want a random score on submit
Hjax: and the games ended pretty fast, even if you ran the minimax ai against it
jacek: like S Z tetris?
eulerscheZahl: but now i optimized for 10k+ frames :cry:
eulerscheZahl: and my sokoban multiplayer idea didn't find any friends
eulerscheZahl: give an incomplete map. first you place some more walls, boxes, ... for the opponent
jacek: maybe try it during contest
Hjax: sounds like great escape
eulerscheZahl: then you swap boards and solve what the opponent gave you
eulerscheZahl: great escape is played on a single board
Hjax: true, but the idea of placing obstacles in such a way to slow your opponent down is similar
eulerscheZahl: yes
Hjax: if struct doesnt come back soon, i might try to make a chess multi
jacek: 960?
eulerscheZahl: shouldn't be to hard to code
jacek: 420?
eulerscheZahl: crazyhouse?
Hjax: probably 960, or regular chess
Illedan: Sorry jacek xD
Hjax: if we want to be true to the codingame spirit, we could do that new fog of war chess variant :P
Allis: Fog of War?
Hjax: ^^^
Allis: Crazy timing there.
jacek: kriegspiel?
jacek: sounds german
jacek: sounds like blitzkrieg
jacek: :scream:
Hjax: chess 960 takes away opening books, hard to say if thats good or not
Hjax: chess book theory is kind of interesting
eulerscheZahl: i saw a fog of war breakthrough on another website
each pawn running on a different instance of your program so they don't have a shared memory
jacek: smits might not like it :v
eulerscheZahl: and you have to guess what your opponent and teammates (=you) are doing while having a limited vision
eulerscheZahl: an interesting idea. but not possible on CG
Hjax: the fog of war chess variant is basically, you can see any square you can legally move a piece to, and the squares that have your pieces on it
jacek: on a bright side, my breakthrough bot won 5 games so far on littlegolem
Hjax: so a knight can attack a queen without being seen
Allis: Or the King, for that matter.
Illedan: Wood1 :tada:
Hjax: the poor king is quite blind in fog of war chess
jacek: imo i'd keep it classy, maybe 960
Hjax: yeah i agree
Hjax: a 960 engine can play normal chess unmodified, which means i could see mine have a depressingly low CCRL rating
jacek: you have chess engine?
Hjax: i will if a multi shows up :P
Hjax: ive written players for a few board games now, connect4, checkers, othello
Hjax: no chess yet
jacek: new programming language for CG plz https://tabloid.vercel.app/
Hjax: i think a problem would be if someone managed to get an existing strong engine into codingame
Hjax: probably gull
Hjax: because its public domain and not super long
JBM: looks like LOLCODE
eulerscheZahl: that's exactly why no one ported chess yet
eulerscheZahl: too well studied
Hjax: god forbid someone figure out how to get stockfish in here
Hjax: then its all over lol
jacek: well the same good be said for checkers
jacek: could*
Hjax: yeah i think cheating at a community multi is kind of unappealing
Hjax: its so small that mostly people will play to write their own stuff
Scarfield: and if someone shoulf manage to do it, it can still be fun for the rest of us :)
Scarfield: should*
JFB: Hjax - it is really easy - simpy you have add new function (stockfish) to numpy - way foa admin to instal new version on CG - and use it in you bot :-) It is probably the only way to do it in 100 k CG limit ;-)
Hjax: you could probably get a compressed stockfish binary to be pretty tiny
Hjax: without NNUE
JBM: is it cheating if anyone can do it?
JFB: JBM - I think that it is not cheating
jacek: you already have stockfish ported to CG?
JFB: Hjax - I think that binary smaller that 100 k is rather not possible - or at least very difficult
JFB: jacek - I do not think it is possible in 100 k
MadKnight: what are u discussing ?
JFB: I suggest to include it in ne of the standard libraries in one of the CG languagest (for example numpy ;-) )
jacek: just as someone tried NN weight to put as python module
JFB: MadKnight - theoritical disusion about implementing chess game on CG - and port the best known algo (stockfish ) to be 1st in the game ;-)
MadKnight: what's the problem to port stockfish ?
jacek: 100k code size
MadKnight: is it longer ?
JFB: I think so :-)
jacek: maybe cfish would be smaller
Scarfield: couldnt you get something close to having a "time bank" on CG by having the possibility to "pass". If you output pass, the opponent cant move, since its not his turn, but get time to think as well, and will have to pass, untill the first player having passed actually moves
JFB: https://stockfishchess.org/download/ - kompressed is 225 k - maybe it is possible?
PatrickMcGinnisII: Does this work for anyone, or just me? https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1wC89q3utXV-eBpCdGEFhB51A2osMvPGQ&export=download
eulerscheZahl: and the limit is 100k chars, which is more than 100kB with unicode
eulerscheZahl: Google Drive can't scan this file for viruses.
Star Wars Mega Bundle.zip (141M) is too large for Google to scan for viruses. Would you still like to download this file?
JFB: Yes
eulerscheZahl: no, i don't want to download
JBM: it could have evil viruses
PatrickMcGinnisII: it's just images in a zip file, gheesh
PatrickMcGinnisII: just making sure it works
JFB: PatrickMcGinnisII - what it is ?
PatrickMcGinnisII: Oh it's someone's collection of 1000 starwars images
JFB: google say it for every download > 100 MB .
PatrickMcGinnisII: it's wird the stuff found on goodle drive
PatrickMcGinnisII: damn can't spell, feel like crap
Schwase: im on a hot streak for clash, double digit participations without a signle shortest mode
Schwase: lets keep its up!!!!
MayoDewitt: congrats bro
PatrickMcGinnisII: should i play Penguins or install 8GB of memory, a 1TB SSD, and a new cpu cooler?
MayoDewitt: how do you handle this last one
MayoDewitt: lmao
Schwase: i just jinxed it
eulerscheZahl: i'm not scared of viruses. i'm just not in a mood to download it
Schwase: mayo what?
MayoDewitt: im in the game you just blowed up
Schwase: yeah dude ive played a lot of lobbies
Barroso208: who wants to code with me?
MayoDewitt: kk i understand
Schwase: what was the puzzle?
JFB: So c++ stockfish code is 560 kB. So it looks for me that I was wrong - port it to 100 k is not imposibble - it is only very difficult
Schwase: the brian one?
jacek: penguins? im so alone in wood
jacek: 2
Illedan: :P
Schwase: i strongly dislike when a clash puzzle creator feels the need to require use of a long type but only on one of the last few test cases and its only because of the operations that lead to the output that that data type is necessary and its not even part of the input
Schwase: it was a ^2 problem
PatrickMcGinnisII: is a Penguin board always 8x8?
jacek: eeyup
MadKnight: why is it so long JFB ?
jacek: thats what she said
TheCodeKid123: Hey guys im back
jacek: why are you red TheCodeKid123
jacek: sus
AntiSquid: hi TheCodeKid123
Schwase: when you get first in an 8 player shortest CoC lobby because no one likes to read the actual problem statement and so they all get 60/70% while you take your time writing a 200+ character code
TheCodeKid123: i am confused
Laminator: non-python problems lol
LastRick: ^
LastRick: Meanwhile Dart users: Write 200 characters of code, only able to parse inputs
Schwase: java and dart are similar when it comes to usefulness in code golf. theyre not
LastRick: Yep. Always have to switch to Python on shortest just to have a chance at winning
Laminator: If you're going to switch for shortest, I would suggest ruby or bash. Optimal code is unbeatable by python.
LastRick: ruby for sure. But python I know by heart (ruby not so much) and that's enough to at least make it competitive.
PatrickMcGinnisII: If I don't have a penguin ID because there are 0 on the board, how do I move one on the board with an unknown id? wth
PatrickMcGinnisII: all penguins should be input with -1,-1 or something
PatrickMcGinnisII: do i have to pull the id from the action list, or just use the next posible id #?
LeRenard: comment ca se fait que dot & boxes il y a plus le lien de telechargment
LeRenard: erreur de detinataire
PatrickMcGinnisII: ahh penguins don't have unique ids across all players
JBM: oui comment ca se fait hein
sagya: bou nos dias
PatrickMcGinnisII: huh, won my first penguin game
PatrickMcGinnisII: now I submit and quit
jacek: and they say there are no games for linux
JackTheRipper18: ohhhh
JackTheRipper18: bro I just spent 15 minutes trying to figure out wtf I did wrong but I forgot to change smthn in my Vector2 - operator :(
TheCodeKid123: hey guys
TheCodeKid123: check this out
TheCodeKid123: https://www.tynker.com/code/project/vfs/project/5f737c0bd67d87731106b544/index.html
JackTheRipper18: why is the speed in pod racing non lienar
JackTheRipper18: if you move at speed 1 you move 1/frame in each axis.
JackTheRipper18: but at speed 100, it's 464/frame
JackTheRipper18: 466**
TheCodeKid123: huh
TheCodeKid123: :confused:
JackTheRipper18: And it takes a few seconds to reach it's max speed, and boost actually isn't any faster, it just accelerates to max speed quicker.
TheCodeKid123: what you talkin about?
JackTheRipper18: in coders strike back.
TheCodeKid123: oh
2ndwolf: OH TNX FOR THE INFO JACK
2ndwolf: sorry caps
TheCodeKid123: check out the website i chatted
TheCodeKid123: plz
JackTheRipper18: Yeah, I want to set up some algorithm to predict enemy's position so I'm recording some info on movement/frame
TheCodeKid123: i am so lost
JackTheRipper18: it takes 32 frames to reach max speed.
TheCodeKid123: ok
JackTheRipper18: Check out coders strike back it's a mini game.
JackTheRipper18: or game I mean.
2ndwolf: haha I was thinking the same thing but figured just bumping him while I'm close with a good angle would be enough
TheCodeKid123: who?
JackTheRipper18: If i can predict his position, I could also do like dot math for his position, and the checkpoints, and do a check if I should avoid collision or knock him off course.
TheCodeKid123: check out this website https://www.tynker.com/code/project/vfs/project/5f737c0bd67d87731106b544/index.html
JackTheRipper18: I'm good.
TheCodeKid123: come on it all about me
JackTheRipper18: I clicked it anyway cuz my VPN was on, maybe make whatever project that is public.
2ndwolf: yeah but I was thinking of simpler, conditions
JackTheRipper18: Yeah, I wanna try and optimize the fuck out of this game just for fun.
2ndwolf: what league u in
JackTheRipper18: See if it would be smarter to avoid collision or knock him of course, math to see what angle I should bump him from to get him the furthest away from the checkpoint etc.
remi6: To me it says " Oops, it seems our codeblocks didn't connect", TheCodeKid123.
JackTheRipper18: I'm just in bronze atm, I could probably beat it but I'm building a ton of shit rn because at first I was just focusing on making it work well enough to win, and it was an unorganized mess.
JackTheRipper18: rn I'm working on a check to see which checkpoint has the greatest distance, to determine when I should boost.
2ndwolf: it seems dist/10 + a couple things is enough to be close to boss in league 3 bronze
TheCodeKid123: It works
JackTheRipper18: That's because your on your account.
JackTheRipper18: it's probably private.
Zenoscave: MadKnight they need to know about -3vel
TheCodeKid123: no my teachers could see it too
JackTheRipper18: idk
Astrobytes: don't overthink Coders Strike Back til you get to Gold
Astrobytes: lol, don't listen to ol' pewpewpew over there
TheCodeKid123: how do you type in red
Zenoscave: it hust is red when someone mentions your name
TheCodeKid123: oh
Zenoscave: it only turns red for the name mentioned
Zenoscave: -3vel is the key
Zenoscave: or is that outdated?
TheCodeKid123: I put a new update that says TheCodeKid123
Astrobytes: I didn't use it but it works yeah, insta-gold
TheCodeKid123: it do not work
TheCodeKid123: Astrobytes can you please help me with this please
TheCodeKid123: ~~help~~
Astrobytes: Nope, going offline, sorry buddy
Astrobytes: gn all
TheCodeKid123: come on :rage::rage:
Zenoscave: gn Astrobytes
TheCodeKid123: please
TheCodeKid123: help
TheCodeKid123: help
TheCodeKid123: help
JackTheRipper18: I'll just get to gold then, I'll waste my time optimizing then :)
TheCodeKid123: help
Zenoscave: TheCodeKid123 please stop spamming
TheCodeKid123: help
JackTheRipper18: Setting up a good Vector2 class was worth it though.
TheCodeKid123: then help me
JackTheRipper18: wtf do u need help with
Zenoscave: that's certainly not gonna happen if you keep acting so.
TheCodeKid123: Zenoscave i will stop but please help
JackTheRipper18: With what
TheCodeKid123: typing red chat
JackTheRipper18: that's A: definitely not urgent wtf, and that was B: explained 50 times, read up.
JackTheRipper18: I'm not gonna tell u again.
Zenoscave: I already told you. If you type someone's nickname it shows up red to them. not anyone else
TheCodeKid123: oh
jacek: to think i could have been mod
TheCodeKid123: Zenoscave is this red?
Zenoscave: It won't work if you say your own name. Yes it is red.
TheCodeKid123: oh thx
Zenoscave: jacek, did you decline?
TheCodeKid123: jacek i don't think so
TheCodeKid123: you should of accepted
jacek: yes, i troll too much
Zenoscave: fair.
Zenoscave: MK 2.0
TheCodeKid123: uhhhh why jacek
TheCodeKid123: Zenoscave i will not spam
JackTheRipper18: how old are you
2ndwolf: he said he was 8
JackTheRipper18: makes sense.
2ndwolf: that said now that I know all my code was scrap I'm not sure how to optimize my csb bot not
Zenoscave: ezpz -3vel
JackTheRipper18: wym -3vel
Zenoscave: (tx, ty) = (cx - 3*vx, cy-3*vy)
Hjax: hes talking about the oneliner csb solution
Hjax: gets you to gold if you just move according to the equation he just mentioned
JackTheRipper18: what are those variables tho
Hjax: targetx, targety, currentx, xvelocity, currenty, yvelocity
Zenoscave: :zipper_mouth:
JackTheRipper18: how's that a one liner if you have to calculate x&y Velocity though?
Zenoscave: hjax simply meant simple statement with no heavy logic or understanding by oneliner
Zenoscave: If you want to know why that works look into this.

2ndwolf: so I gotta compute thrust from reversing this thing?
2ndwolf: omg great resource thanks
Zenoscave: nope just thrust 100 always. ezpz
Hjax: my csb is rank 458 gold
Hjax: 20 lines
2ndwolf: hahaha
Hjax: close enough to one line :D
Zenoscave: the -3vel accounts for over shooting
JackTheRipper18: Mine's super over engineered atm, mostly just for convenience though.
JackTheRipper18: I've got a big ass Vector2 class.
Hjax: i could golf it down a bit more
Zenoscave: faster you go the sooner you stop
JackTheRipper18: Wait really\
Hjax: i could probably get it under 10 lines
cg000: EZPZ
JackTheRipper18: I could get it to one line :)
2ndwolf: and 10 functions XD
Hjax: functions? who uses those
JackTheRipper18: Nah, just a lot of semi colons in that one line.
2ndwolf: ok I almost won against bronze 3 boss with (destX destY 100)
JackTheRipper18: oh I always beat the boss.
JackTheRipper18: Just sometimes issues in the arena.
2ndwolf: same
JackTheRipper18: I'm still setting up rn tho.
2ndwolf: but it's absurd
2ndwolf: I'm about a 100 px behind with just console.log
JackTheRipper18: speed is weirdly inconsistent.
JackTheRipper18: earlier I got 460 smthn
JackTheRipper18: this time I got 661.
JackTheRipper18: ohh
JackTheRipper18: if you move on solely one axis you move at a rate of 661/frame
JackTheRipper18: if you move diagonally it's 466/frame
JackTheRipper18: probably smthn to do with Vector normalizing.
2ndwolf: :O
Zenoscave: Hjax you still on?
JackTheRipper18: it takes 38 frames to completely decelerate
JackTheRipper18: 2860.6058798792956
JackTheRipper18: Although it's definitely not efficient, it's cool to look at, if you set thrust to 0 the second the dist<2861 you'll be 100% stopped the same frame you reach the checkpoint, as long as you use angles <4
JackTheRipper18: >4**
JackTheRipper18: (Also if your checkpoints are too close together it'll break, definitely needs a check for that.)
2ndwolf: omg lol I just won ~12000th to from decelerating ~200th just from decelerating when the angle isn't right
2ndwolf: damnit can't edit XD
2ndwolf: yeah I've stopped stopping my pod because of that
JackTheRipper18: It's pretty easy to correct it
Hjax: whats up Zenoscave
JackTheRipper18: Just check if it hasn't accelerated in more than 2 frames, if so set a condition that makes it thrust.
2ndwolf: yeah
JackTheRipper18: Rn I think it would be ideal, to set desiredDestination to 2861, away from the checkpoint, towards the player.
JackTheRipper18: So it never decelerates, but when sliding to change target pos it will trigger the checkpoint.
Zenoscave: Do you shield in CSB yet? I'm interested in comparing 20 - liners
Zenoscave: ^ Hjax
MadKnight: Zenoscave 20-liners that do what ?
Zenoscave: csb ofc.
MadKnight: gold ?
Zenoscave: yeh
MadKnight: in python or c++ ?
Zenoscave: seeing how far up I can get in gold on a smurf. ruby
MadKnight: simple movement simulation is allowed ?
MadKnight: no collision
Zenoscave: no simu
Zenoscave: just steering maths
MadKnight: just the pos += vel
Insufficient: i have rank 400 or so with an 80 line heuristic python 3 script no simulation or anything
Zenoscave: a bit more
MadKnight: try my formula Zenoscave
cg000: -3v? or pos +=
darkhorse64: 20 lines is too much code
MadKnight: wait are u doing the optimization one ?
Zenoscave: no
Zenoscave: just csb
MadKnight: then try my formula
MadKnight: PM
Zenoscave: :+1:
2ndwolf: 120 ranks from boosting at a different moment
MadKnight: Zenoscave u got the formula working ?
Zenoscave: not yet
SeeJay: pls share your code
SuperN3rdy: So feeling dumb on this 7-segment scanner could anyone help>
SuperN3rdy: ?*
Dementio: hello, when you submit a solution to a puzzle.. is the score influenced by the efficiency of the solution or it just sees if all tests are passed
SuperN3rdy: the 1st one
Dementio: ty
SuperN3rdy: No worries I only found out because of rewriting my code without the extra loop i had
Majeck: Is there any way to know an account's age?
CosmicStudios: I can only do one testcase without messing up the others, does anyone know how to fix that?
SuperN3rdy: depends on what your trying to do.
SuperN3rdy: Is this for the 7-segement scanner
LastRick: @Majeck, I noted that if I look at your profile, in the tab Ranking, the graph has tooltips which show the date that your ranking moved. So I am guessing you joined not too long before that
CosmicStudios: Descending Mountains
SuperN3rdy: Thats the one with the ship right?
CosmicStudios: yup
2ndwolf: I've seen him ask that question before
2ndwolf: who is majeck
2ndwolf: thought bot for a moment sorry
CosmicStudios: I did test case one then one change to testcase 2 messes up testcase one
SuperN3rdy: would have to see your code
CosmicStudios: and I meant it was The Descent
2ndwolf: look for the highest number in array O_O
CosmicStudios: I thought test case one would stay completed
SuperN3rdy: it will if you dont hard code any numbers
2ndwolf: nah you have to validate every test case with one version of your code
SuperN3rdy: my guess is you are hard coding the highest one
SuperN3rdy: so when you change test cases you are changing the code
CosmicStudios: oh that makes it harder :\
SuperN3rdy: its not that bad after you understand the trick to it, Its only a couple lines of code
CosmicStudios: oh thanks =D
Majeck: Thanks @LastRick
SuperN3rdy: I am completely lost on the scanner guessing i need to use regex but not sure how i would even start it
LastRick: @SuperN3rdy, the one by tutbalin? If so, I solved it without regex (I rarely use that) so I can probably help
Majeck: @2ndwolf I'm not a bot, but you have a sharp memory!
SuperN3rdy: @lastrick Yes I am lost on where to even start
SuperN3rdy: Does this chat not link to the full discord?
LastRick: Maybe. I don't know, I don't do discord.
LastRick: So the best hint I can probably give you is I used a HashMap to solve it. Are you familiar with those?
SuperN3rdy: Yea I know hashmaps I am doing this in Python 3 though I think they call them dictionaries
SuperN3rdy: Take it you did it in Javascript or C++
LastRick: Dart. So with that in mind, is there a value or expression you could store for every number 0 through 9?
SuperN3rdy: Trying to think
SuperN3rdy: I know there is but not sure what that would be. Was thinking I could add each set of 9 to a hash but that seems a bit much
SuperN3rdy: maybe make a set of objects with the 3 lines
SuperN3rdy: something like
{
"one" : {
LastRick: You're really close. Maybe there's a way you could change the three-line ASCII number into a usable key.
SuperN3rdy: line1: " _ ",
line2: "| |",
line3: "|_|"
SuperN3rdy: }
LastRick: That's close! Keep going :)
SuperN3rdy: OK so I would need to flip that so its the key instead of the value
SuperN3rdy: hmmmm
LastRick: Yes
SuperN3rdy: OK I am going to go read for a min to see if I can get this
LastRick: Best of luck!
SuperN3rdy: I am not the best with Hashmaps I hated in javascript too
MadKnight: > Does this chat not link to the full discord?
no it's a separate chat system
SuperN3rdy: OK thanks @MadKnight
SuperN3rdy: was looking for my chat in the main discord and could not find it
MadKnight: are u doing the chuck norris ?
MadKnight: or file extensions ?
SuperN3rdy: No the 7 segment scanner by tutubalin
MadKnight: ooh
SuperN3rdy: I am on the right track now that I see what I need to do. Also Thanks for that @LastRick
LastRick: :thumbsup:
SuperN3rdy: so would I have all 3 lines on one line for the key some thing like " _ | ||_|"
SuperN3rdy: so it would not look like it but if I added all there lines together like that I would get the value
LastRick: You got it.
SuperN3rdy: dam TBH i was doing some complex ass regex for each one that is some much easier lol
SuperN3rdy: Guess thats what I get for not coding for a half a year after school
LastRick: Yeah, you figure out quickly here if you're working really hard on a problem and it's level is Easy, probably a better way to do it.
SuperN3rdy: Really makes me hate myself :joy:
LastRick: Keep at it, you'll be flying in no time
SuperN3rdy: Thanks \
LastRick: My pleasure
Majeck: Quick annoying question: What's the command to send text to the error stream in python3?
Majeck: In C# for example it's Console.Error.WriteLine()
SuperN3rdy: i think its sys.stderr.write()
Majeck: Yep! Thanks!
MadKnight: what are u doing majeck ?
Harrogin: first day on this site. clash of code is awesome!
GeniusProgrammer7720: hello
_ZiGZ_: hello
JackTheRipper18: Bro this is so satisfying to watch.
SuperN3rdy: Woohoo only took me an hour but its done. Thanks Again @LastRick
LastRick: No problem. On to the next one!
SuperN3rdy: Yep plan on doing every one of these easy ones before I move on.
SuperN3rdy: The stupid spacing kept messing me up
SuperN3rdy: Got a 100% on it too
LastRick: Good to hear. Yep, once you get past the HashMap concept, it's basically a string parsing puzzle. If you like that kind of stuff, go try an ASCII art one.
SuperN3rdy: O I didn't like it lol but after I got the dictionary done the function only took me like 10 mins. I just need to remember that hashmaps/dictionary is a thing
LastRick: hah hah
LastRick: Sorry, HashMap, I forgot you existed
SuperN3rdy: Yea it's so useful but I always forget it and end up using just list/array and write a bunch of code to compare which is dumb of me. But when I 1st started coding I don't think hashmaps was a thing back in 2000
SuperN3rdy: this is like my 4th time restarting programming
JackTheRipper18: Now I have to program a dot product function for my vector class lets go.
LastRick: Welcome back! :)
SuperN3rdy: good luck
LinhT.Nguyen: alo ae
LinhT.Nguyen: sup guys
LastRick: hey
LinhT.Nguyen: yo
JackTheRipper18: The way Coders strike back does angles is so annoying.
JackTheRipper18: why 180 to -180 that's not how angles work
LinhT.Nguyen: gotta do what we gotta do bro
SuperN3rdy: ?
LinhT.Nguyen: you dont tel clients they are stupid
SuperN3rdy: I don't even know what you was talking about and that is confusing to me lol
SuperN3rdy: Well that's my night ladies and gents hopefully see you all tomorrow.
LastRick: Later
MaliciouslyCrypticUsername: lol I was just promoted to wood 1 of the great escape and my bot literally just moves in one direction
Nickkname: every body have been through that lol
Rodrigo_the_coder: need help for angle input. coders strike back.
