Tobey: :thinking:

ProCoder03: guess we need to create a new chat called spam and reroute these idiots there..

Uljahn: -> #spam

ProCoder03: I never know there was a sep chat for spamming lol

Uljahn: channels are autocreated when you join them

ProCoder03: I never know abt it... :sweat_smile:

Default avatar.png MeBen: Can I join channels without typing their name in chat? Also, completely unrelated ... #ruby

Uljahn: yes, use /join channel_name

Uljahn: it's in the chat help (question mark right behind the chat input field)

Uljahn: or type /help

Default avatar.png MeBen: Ah thanks :)

Default avatar.png MeBen: Wish I could do /leave Coc*

DimiMav: hello hello!

DimiMav: nice to find you here all!

juwulie: so sad

Default avatar.png phoenix_sc2z: i don't know how to code, is it ok to ask for a job with 100k per year

Default avatar.png phoenix_sc2z: for a coding job

BlaiseEbuth: Of course. Put "Java expert" on your CV and you'll be hired.

Default avatar.png phoenix_sc2z: ok thanks !

raizbro: little bear

raizbro: hi

MSmits: hi

raizbro: bear wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

littlebear: you have been warned

Astrobytes: he was warned and kicked

MSmits: hi Astrobytes

Astrobytes: hey MSmits

MSmits: are you working on anything for CG?

MSmits: Or just keeping the channel clean?

Astrobytes: Not at the moment, killing time before my 2nd covid jab (eventually)

MSmits: ahh ok

MSmits: why did it take so long for you to get it?

MSmits: I was pretty late myself and it was almost 2 months ago

Astrobytes: Had to push the date back due to having covid

MSmits: oh right thats it

MSmits: you sample all viruses first, before getting the vaccins

Astrobytes: Naturally! :D

Astrobytes: lol

MSmits: well it's professional interest I'm sure

Astrobytes: Nah. I'm just extremely unlucky. It's a well known feature about me :P

MSmits: yep

MSmits: I did run length encoding with students today

Astrobytes: Cool, how did they find it?

MSmits: they had to draw pictures from encodings

Astrobytes: Nice

MSmits: and then they had to invent their own picture and turn it into encoding

MSmits: saw a lot of different male members today

Astrobytes: hahahaha

Astrobytes: Teens will be teens

MSmits: indeed

MSmits: but in this case it's mostly my colleague's fault

Astrobytes: lol why?

MSmits: he will make a point of walking into my classroom at the right moment and whisper some stuff at them

Astrobytes: Hah! My kind of colleague

MSmits: hehe yea it's oik

MSmits: he also rickrolls them

MSmits: he uploaded several files of the same sound but varying sample rate

MSmits: but they were all rickrolls

Astrobytes: superb

MSmits: then when it's testing time he makes a link "answers to the test here"...

Astrobytes: That's great. Wish my teachers had been master trolls like that

MSmits: hehe yeah it's kind of funny

MSmits: I have a sense of humor, but I don't naturally troll students

MSmits: I can enjoy it when he does though

Astrobytes: You should. Just a little.

Astrobytes: Like once a week or something

MSmits: I'll think about it :)

MSmits: hey, I am confused about something with covid

Astrobytes: Gives you enough time to come up with something good

MSmits: maybe you have thoughts

Astrobytes: Go on

MSmits: how come in the US they have 30k young children hospitalized with covid and here in my country there are no restrictions at all in priomary schools and they do ok

Astrobytes: Bigger population for starters

MSmits: well sure, but 30k is a LOT still

BlaiseEbuth: Bigger people

Astrobytes: What's the geographical distribution of the 30K?

MSmits: it's of course going to be mostly in states with lower vaccination rates

MSmits: but still, we've been told it's mostly harmless for children

Astrobytes: Yes. They also have generally few if any restrictions, so who knows which variant they have.

MSmits: hmm so you're thinking it's not the same delta variant over there?

Astrobytes: I think it's just as harmful, but kids are a bit more resilient. Plus these kind of viruses will sweep through certain demographics of the population every wave

MSmits: I see

Astrobytes: I'm not up to date on the current variants, there are quite a few floating around

MSmits: I'm a bit worried we're going to see massive waves going through primary schools here at some point

Astrobytes: It's happening here

MSmits: oh?

Astrobytes: No one appears to care though

MSmits: hmm ok

MSmits: physically weaker kids go to different kinds of schools here where they are more careful

MSmits: In the US the person with Down syndrom goes to the same school

MSmits: this does not help

Astrobytes: Yeah, we've got a huge school for kids with special requirements and whatnot here, serves the whole area. They're very careful too.

MSmits: anyways, that was my question, train is arriving, ttyl :)

Astrobytes: Definitely agree with you.

Astrobytes: Later man

MiyamuraIzumi: well, we could just see, covid as a new normal soon

MiyamuraIzumi: so people all around the world will accustom to it

MiyamuraIzumi: we might need to vaccinate yearly

Astrobytes: Yeah it will be like that, it'll take some time to settle down though. So much of the world is still dealing with huge numbers of cases

Astrobytes: Yes, most probably.

ProCoder03: Wait in your country primary students started doing to school daily ??

Astrobytes: Yeah

TimothyAlexisVass: Updated this now: https://www.codingame.com/contribute/view/7308d63b764bf1979ade0e862fcb636fa0f4

ProCoder03: Wow!! Ours is the one that's lagging behind :disappointed:

Astrobytes: That and our prime minister is a shockingly bad excuse for a human being.

ProCoder03: We are still having alternative days school and that too only for 13+

ProCoder03: lol

MiyamuraIzumi: covid is still in high, I don't think we should let children go to school for now

Astrobytes: It's a tough balance between ruining kids education and hospitalising them with a potentially deadly virus I guess

ProCoder03: yeah..

MiyamuraIzumi: :white_check_mark

MiyamuraIzumi: :white_check_mark:

TimothyAlexisVass: Is there some trick to sum the digits in a number?

Astrobytes: Use / and %

TimothyAlexisVass: Hmm? :\

TimothyAlexisVass: Let's say I have N=137541 1+3+7+5+4+1 = 21

TimothyAlexisVass: In Ruby you can split it and use inject.

TimothyAlexisVass: In Javascript you can split it and use reduce

Husoski: If you keep summing, though, repeating the digit sum until you get a single digit sum, then you get either 0 or (n-1)%9 +1.

raizbro: shtrj

TimothyAlexisVass: JS: s=N.split``.reduce((a,b)=>a+b)

I was thinking if there was a trick to do it shorter.

Astrobytes: bye bye raizbro

TimothyAlexisVass: Hmm that won't be correct though.

TimothyAlexisVass: s=N.split``.reduce((a,b)=>+a+~~b)

TimothyAlexisVass: Otherwise it will do string concatenation of the numbers...

Default avatar.png gugrbywitkr: timothyalexisvass there's trick

Default avatar.png gugrbywitkr: eval([...s].join`+`)

Default avatar.png gugrbywitkr: if you are working on number you have to make it str firsst

Default avatar.png gugrbywitkr: so its eval([...+n].join`+`)

Default avatar.png gugrbywitkr: eval is evaluating str as javascript would

Default avatar.png gugrbywitkr: so eval('1+2') is 3

Default avatar.png gugrbywitkr: so you do [...+152].join`+` and you get '1+5+2'

TimothyAlexisVass: gugrbywitkr! Thanks, that was clever eval([...s].join`+`)

Default avatar.png gugrbywitkr: we can private clash and exchange js tricks

TimothyAlexisVass: OK

Manopphysics: Yee

Manopphysics: YEeEeeEEEeeeEEeEeEeeEeee

Astrobytes: quit spamming

littlebear: let this new borns spam

Nektar24: guys i love programming , but i hate sitting down on a chair , as a result i haven't programmed all summer , what do i do ? :disappointed:

Nektar24: my back and my butt hurt from all the quaranteen sitting down

Wontonimo: stand

Wontonimo: kneel

Nektar24: i can kneel for maybe 10 minutes but then what :grin:

Nektar24: maybe i'm sitting down wrong

dreadylein: get a decent char and try to sit properly ;) aside of that, standing is actually not a joke if you got problems with your back

Wontonimo: my most productive programming is 15-25 min sitting, stand up, pace around while thinking of next steps, sit down and repeat

dreadylein: just make sure to increase the height of the monitor and keyboard accordingly

Wontonimo: i've been asked how I get so much done at work when I seem to be walking around so much. it works for me

Nektar24: i see alright

Nektar24: thanks !

Wontonimo: that kind of routine can also really help you keep your changes in manageably small chunks that are self contained

Wontonimo: when sitting down it's all about focus in the small self-contained change that can be completed in 15-25 min. When standing up it's all about planning the next change and thinking higher level

NotGoodatall: hi guys um what is the best programming language :neutral_face:

ProCoder03: every language is both superior and inferior to all other programming langauge

NotGoodatall: Ok ill use JavaScript i'm better with that one .

TimothyAlexisVass: ProCoder ...

ProCoder03: yes..

Default avatar.png MeBen: He ain't wrong

NotGoodatall: MeBen what is your rank?

ProCoder03: hover hover his dp

Default avatar.png MeBen: No idea, either 13 or 9276?

ProCoder03: the later is your rank

ProCoder03: first is your level

NotGoodatall: im 10,077

NotGoodatall: and im level 4

ProCoder03: it shows you are 38000s

ProCoder03: 38152 tbp

NotGoodatall: :zipper_mouth:

NotGoodatall: i'm not good at programming

Default avatar.png MeBen: Practice makes perfect :)

NotGoodatall: yea

TimothyAlexisVass: How do I get 2 space separated integers into 2 variables with Ruby?

TimothyAlexisVass: in Python it's a,b=map(int,input().split(' '))

Default avatar.png MeBen: There's several ways, the most straight-forward would be `a, b = gets.split.map &:to_i`

TimothyAlexisVass: Is that the shortest?

TimothyAlexisVass: a,b=gets.split.map &:to_i

struct: I guess so

Default avatar.png MeBen: It depends on how many inputs there are, and if they're on the same line, etc. You can also use the special $_ variable when gets is used, things like `gets;p $_.to_i+$_[~/ /].to_i`

TimothyAlexisVass: :S

TimothyAlexisVass: :open_mouth:

Default avatar.png MeBen: Ruby had a lot of influence from Perl

struct: also if you want to read entire input you can use `dd`

Default avatar.png MeBen: Yep, `dd` is a good trick, and also $<.map to map/iterate over lines of input

TimothyAlexisVass: So it's 1 line with 2 space separated integers

Default avatar.png MeBen: Can also use eval, i.e. to sum all numbers in a line you can do `p eval(gets.tr ' ',?+)`

TimothyAlexisVass: Has anyone used Ruby in their profession?

TimothyAlexisVass: Let me rephrase taht

TimothyAlexisVass: Has anyone here (enjoyed) using Ruby in their profession? ;)

Default avatar.png MeBen: A little bit now and then

TimothyAlexisVass: We use Redmine here

Default avatar.png MeBen: A lot of Ruby is in Rails and I don't do web dev

ProCoder03: MeBen, Is there any good ruby course you would suggest

Default avatar.png MeBen: There's _why's poignant guide, but that's more of a story than a guide

Default avatar.png MeBen: Other than that I can't really remember, it's been too long

ProCoder03: Thanks MeBen

littlebear: given the time and percentage of solution in a reverse mode clash, print them in order of ranking from 1 to N. that will be a good clash right ?

littlebear: opps, *shortest

MiyamuraIzumi: given the time and percentage of solution in a reverse mode clash =>print random number

littlebear: not time size lol

TimothyAlexisVass: Is this too hard? https://www.codingame.com/contribute/view/7361e10138c4a040c6ee05712f9ba5ed2b7e

Default avatar.png smallPPperson: https://www.codingame.com/clashofcode/clash/1969367c19b869665c3e741cdb896c89a841ccc

Default avatar.png MeBen: @TimothyAlexisVass I like it

littlebear: -> #clash smallPPperson

Default avatar.png MeBen: The problem statement needs work, it doesn't say anywhere what operations are allowed, that there's parentheses, etc.

Default avatar.png MeBen: It sucks when you have to look at test cases because statements aren't exhaustive.

BlaiseEbuth: And a summary of the roman system would be good

Default avatar.png MeBen: Is that not assumed to be common knowledge?

Default avatar.png 5922: Probably not to the extent required.

BlaiseEbuth: Furthermore, there's the Roman's roman system, and the medieval roman system. With some differences between

TimothyAlexisVass: I'll add some details. I think it's also nice to be able to copy the numbers from the Statement.

Wontonimo: Hey TimothyAlexisVass, have you solved this using c, c++, or rust? Is it reasonable to solve this in 15 min using one of those languages?

BlaiseEbuth: I don't see anything thar could be a problem in these languages

Wontonimo: I'm not c/c++/rust expert, but a huge part of your solution is using "eval" that does all the heavy lifting of parsing the order of operations and that doesn't exist in those languages

TimothyAlexisVass: Good point.

Wontonimo: "( I + II ) * IV / III" without "eval" will require a lot more work in c/c++ compared to the published solution in python

TimothyAlexisVass: especially with the parenthesis.

Wontonimo: it's doable, it's just not clash sized for all languages

Default avatar.png smallPPperson: https://www.codingame.com/clashofcode/clash/19693907c3fda7476426bcfeb620f82bdf27fd1

Wontonimo: don't post clashes here. use #clash

Default avatar.png smallPPperson: #clash

Wontonimo: yeah, and click on that link and post it tthere

Wontonimo: Validator 1 isn't similar to Test 1. Validator 1 requires 3 numbers to be processed where as test 1 is only 2 numbers

Wontonimo: same with test 2 / validator 2

Default avatar.png smallPPperson: clash

Default avatar.png smallPPperson: #clash

BlaiseEbuth: This guy understood everything... -_-

Wontonimo: click on the "#clash" link that I posted and that you posted and that I'm posting again now smallPPperson

Wontonimo: oh, interesting, quotes block the autolink

TimothyAlexisVass: Thanks for the feedback.

Miki09: In cb silver league what is the max speed of pod? The pods thrust is from 0 to 100 but it moves about 500 pixels each turn.

Miki09: *csb

Illedan: What is the friction again?

Illedan: 0.2*500 => 100. So you can't drive faster

eulerscheZahl: BOOST

eulerscheZahl: isn't friction 0.15?

Miki09: But i take my previous position and my position now and the distance method returns about 500

BlaiseEbuth: Thrust is added to the speed vector, it's not the speed itself.

Miki09: So what's the max speed of pod?

BlaiseEbuth: On each turn the pods movements are computed this way: http://chat.codingame.com/pastebin/aea70005-9223-483b-b070-1ac595633f57

Miki09: ok thanks

Uljahn: also turn on the debug mode in the visualizer to observe speed vectors and targets

Wontonimo: hey Miki09 , nice Coders Strikes Back silver bot. What's your next idea for improvement?

Wontonimo: Miki09, you are using shields when speeding to the next checkpoint. Shields also stop your pod dead in it's tracks, so not the best when speeding to a checkpoint

tealfrog: I got a guy in clash who made exactly same code in short. Looks unlucky to name even vars the same. Is there place to report it?Someone checking use of double account?

Default avatar.png finnishboi09: hi im new and i dont know what to do

MiyamuraIzumi: is that a bot tealfrog?

tealfrog: i don't think so

MiyamuraIzumi: the problem is too small

tealfrog: bots copy from previous rounds

MiyamuraIzumi: maybe it is just a coincident

tealfrog: maybe

Default avatar.png finnishboi09: what do id oif my code dont work?

MiyamuraIzumi: fix it

struct: hmm

Default avatar.png finnishboi09: idont know how to fix it

struct: what are you trying to do?

struct: and whats the code

Default avatar.png finnishboi09: im doing the coders strike back boss 2

Default avatar.png finnishboi09: i trying to win

struct: paste the code here

Default avatar.png finnishboi09: http://chat.codingame.com/pastebin/8edefe3e-5438-4714-8dd0-c3e4ce9a5d3e

Default avatar.png finnishboi09: # i.e.: "x y thrust"

   print(str(next_checkpoint_x) + " " + str(next_checkpoint_y) + " 80")


Default avatar.png finnishboi09: thats all

Default avatar.png finnishboi09: theres something wrong whit my last code strip

MiyamuraIzumi: so you have bug

Default avatar.png finnishboi09: i think

MiyamuraIzumi: or you just can't win the bos

Default avatar.png finnishboi09: i cant win the boss

Default avatar.png finnishboi09: btw i started 20 min ago

struct: you reseted the code right?

Husoski: Does that really have "import sys" and "import math" run together like that?

Default avatar.png finnishboi09: now theres a bug

Default avatar.png finnishboi09: i broke it

Default avatar.png finnishboi09: ....

struct: click the reset the code button on top right of ide

Default avatar.png finnishboi09: i cant find it

Default avatar.png finnishboi09: done

struct: now if you follow the rest of the tutorial you should beat the boss

struct: I think in wood 2 you need to do an if

struct: to check the angle

Default avatar.png finnishboi09: i reseted the code

Default avatar.png finnishboi09: theres no reset code button

Wontonimo: top right hand, a circle arrow

struct: https://i.imgur.com/uSvea4I.png

Default avatar.png finnishboi09: i pressed it

Wontonimo: yea

Default avatar.png finnishboi09: theres only 1 sec of my code that works

Default avatar.png finnishboi09: struct help

struct: with?

struct: now you need to follow the tutorial

struct: if (angle > -90 && angle < 90) full thrust else 0

Default avatar.png finnishboi09: im getting help

struct: ok

jacek: good evening

littlebear: evening

struct: hi jacek

struct: More NNs are showing up everyday :'(

Wontonimo: why is that sad?

struct: its sad for my bots

struct: They cant handle them

Wontonimo: are you getting on the NN wagon?

struct: yes

struct: eta 2025

PatrickMcGinnisII: :joy:

Wontonimo: about the time China and US and SpaceX are planning on having a person return to the moon

struct: Yeah ill have to write a NN to bring them back

Wontonimo: that sounds like a multi or solo. kinda like a reverse mars lander, but only allowed to use NN (not code)

Wontonimo: "The orbiter transport has crashed. You have to grow potatoes for 3 months (90 game frames) then drive to the launchpoint, lift off, and do an orbital docking"

struct: seems like kerbal

Wontonimo: "with the replacement transport"

Astrobytes: with a touch of The Martian

mr_ayush_kumawat: Hey there

struct: Does mcts work for 3+ player games?

Astrobytes: Yeah, but I think you have to incorporate things like paranoid, maxN, best-reply, all that kinda stuff depending on the game

Astrobytes: Never tried it myself

MiyamuraIzumi: mcts can also even work for 1 player game

Astrobytes: There are papers out there on it

Wontonimo: if you lose, it's very sad

MiyamuraIzumi: isn't that 1 player game always lead to a lose?

Wontonimo: for multi player that is just 1 winner and multiple losers, you could have a backprop that is +1 for the winner and -1/(players-1) for the losers. I bet that would be okay and result in about a zero score for near tie games

struct: yeah but tron is kinda a different story

struct: sometimes you are not even competing vs some players

MiyamuraIzumi: apart from doing bot programming, do you guy have any idea on what to do in freetime?

Astrobytes: Perhaps try the paranoid approach struct, maybe EPT with floodfill heuristic

struct: paranoid = closest right?

Astrobytes: Assume all players are out to get you

struct: yeah my bot does that

struct: for 1 ply

struct: ill try 1vs1 mcts to see how it does

Wontonimo: MiyamuraIzumi , I hear some people bath. That can take upwards of 14 minutes

struct: baths or showers?

Astrobytes: I like both tbh

Wontonimo: at the same time?

Astrobytes: baths in winter, showers in summer

struct: I do some sports too, but not everyone can

struct: I do cycling, swimming, running, football

Astrobytes: Actually, I have really long hair so I do use the shower in the bath when I'm washing it

MiyamuraIzumi: well do some execercise/sport seems good

Astrobytes: Do whatever you want :)

MiyamuraIzumi: :)

Wontonimo: write a program to generate ideas

MiyamuraIzumi: oh

Astrobytes: NN it. Consult it every morning on daily plans.

Wontonimo: and then write another to generate excuses

Astrobytes: hahaha

MiyamuraIzumi: :D :D

littlebear: lol

Wontonimo: from random import choice print("Today I will " + choice(["make","assemble","design","find"]) + " a " + choice(["model car","girlfriend","tree fort","pet"])) print("But I couldn't because I had to " + choice(["wax","clean","walk"]) + " my " + choice(["car","room","cat"]))

Astrobytes: lol

MiyamuraIzumi: :|

Wontonimo: Today I will make a girlfriend But I couldn't because I had to wax my room

Default avatar.png Krenar: Do coders make coding jokes cuz they funny or cuz it makes them feel superior to others? (Obviosly we are superior)

Astrobytes: For the humour.

Wontonimo: i do it because i like coding

Default avatar.png Krenar: Perhaps

Default avatar.png Krenar: I was ironic :)

Default avatar.png Krenar: :P

littlebear: Today I will find a pet But I couldn't because I had to walk my cat

Wontonimo: well struct, I still haven't been able to replicate your tron success. *sigh*

Wontonimo: there must be something else I'm missing

struct: hmm

Wontonimo: i may take a look at it this weekend. i should get back to work

Wontonimo: probably bugs

Wontonimo: :worm:

struct: Maybe

struct: its likely

Astrobytes: It was bugs with me, fixed em and got Legend

struct: Mybe I also have bugs

struct: im rewriting atm

Wontonimo: what was your algo Astro?

Astrobytes: paranoid minimax

Astrobytes: well alphabeta obvs

eulerscheZahl: minimax only vs closest opponent also works quite well (that's what I do)

eulerscheZahl: closest in terms of BFS dist, not manhattan dist

Astrobytes: Yeah, I was gonna experiment with a few approaches at some point

MiyamuraIzumi: OH

struct: minimax voronoi?

Wontonimo: and eval being floodfill area controlled - opponent area?

YurkovAS: That’s why I use the MCTS more and more frequently on Codingame: Ultimate Tic Tac Toe (2 players), Tron (4 players), Mars Lander (optimzation) https://www.codingame.com/forum/t/xmash-rush-cc07-feedback-strategies/74346/38

Astrobytes: Yes and yes

jrke: while minimaxing with nearest opp do you switch opponent in between if it becomes more nearer than the first opponent?

Astrobytes: You would presumably check who is closest every turn yes

Astrobytes: Oh, during minimaxing... hm, no

eulerscheZahl: ^

MiyamuraIzumi: MCTS for MarLander YurkovAS?

Wontonimo: i can image that would work

Astrobytes: The reason you choose the closest is because they are the most immediate threat.

eulerscheZahl: minimax vs furthest only :thinking:

Astrobytes: lol

Astrobytes: You can use SP-MCTS for other optimisation problems too

eulerscheZahl: DerRadikaleRusse was experimenting with paranoid and predicted that one opponent would commit suicide so the other can survive longer

jrke: my current tron bot leaves lot space like closing lot space which can't be visited

Astrobytes: No one says you have to fill all the space, as long as you win

eulerscheZahl: when you are cut off from the others, there's some nice graph theory to use

jrke: whats that theory?

Astrobytes: chambers and articulation points and stuff iirc

YurkovAS: MiyamuraIzumi 68place but i'm was same with GA (online)

eulerscheZahl: Superstrukturgraph (no idea how to translate) yes, related to articulation points

MiyamuraIzumi: :)

jacek: graph theory eh

Wontonimo: to get started in Tron, just turn if you are about to hit a wall

eulerscheZahl: the thing that struct hates

struct: i know very little about graphs

Astrobytes: I knew very little about graphs before CG

Astrobytes: Just some basic concepts

jacek: Superstrukturgraph? is this Supergraph?

Astrobytes: Yes iirc, we had to translate this once before when euler used the same word

Default avatar.png Gvinfinity: just wanted to share this one I'm proud of

jacek: good for you, but non-clash people cant see the question or solutions

Default avatar.png Gvinfinity: oh, is there a way I can share that?

jacek: manual copy paste

Astrobytes: Or just be happy with "well done!"

sirsatan: i guess it was difficult

Astrobytes: Judging by the times and success rate yes, or the others were simply feeble

Wontonimo: or the clash was hard

Astrobytes: See post above mine ;)

Astrobytes: And well done anyway Gvinfinity

Wontonimo: hey Gvinfinity, there is more to CG than clash. Have you tried the puzzles or bot battles?

Wontonimo: oh, i see you have tried a bot battle :thumbsup:

Astrobytes: Work is boring today Wontonimo? :)

Wontonimo: it sure is Astro

jacek: isnt it always

Astrobytes: Here: :taco:

Wontonimo: you know me well

Wontonimo: thanks :D

jacek: i see robo overtook me in bt :F

jacek: i take holidays for 5 days and this is what happens

eulerscheZahl: holidays from CG?

eulerscheZahl: good thing you are back tomorrow to wish us a happy Caturday

jacek: somewhat. i didnt take bring my computer

jacek: my grammar is so advanced since then

Wontonimo: your saying texting is very good decent

Default avatar.png omboyo: anyone here who has done ray tracing?

Default avatar.png omboyo: ray casting*

Wontonimo: yes

struct: last time I heard about it someone wanted to solve space maze with it

Astrobytes: ahhh the ray-tracing NN

Default avatar.png omboyo: how do you get the distance not from the ray to P, but from the frame to P?

Default avatar.png omboyo: im trying to solve a simple ascii 3d engine

darkhorse64: you want the distance from the origin to the point touched by the ray ?

Default avatar.png omboyo: thats what ive got now i think. but I get a fisheye effect. But its says to fix that you have to calculate from "the plane of the screen".https://www.computerhope.com/jargon/r/ray-casting-diagram.jpg. exsampel the screen in this photo

Astrobytes: So from the camera plane

Husoski: dot product with the direction vector (unit vector perpendicular to the screen)

darkhorse64: if you have a fisheye effect, it's likely that you are not using a perspective projection. You are doing something like direction = [angleX/resolutionX*i, angleY/resolutionY*j]

Wontonimo: ^^ that right. fisheye is cool, and uses angle

Wontonimo: instead put an imaginary grid of 600x400 (or whatever your resolution is) infront of the camera. iterate over each grid location and shoot a ray from the camera in the direction of the grid location

Wontonimo: if the grid is 2 meter across, and it is 1 meter infront of the camera, then you'll have a 90 degree field of view

Default avatar.png omboyo: thanks guys i think i will get i now

Default avatar.png omboyo: i coulnt find much information on this. how did you guys learn?

dreadylein: books ... iam old

darkhorse64: i wrote my own raytracer a long time ago http://xrt.wikidot.com

struct: parsing inputs for tron is a mess

struct: ...

Default avatar.png A_W1534: there is a city in poland called kock

Husoski: There's a pudding in England called "spotted dick". So what?

Wontonimo: any new players here who need a hand?

Default avatar.png OTOK: :nerd:

Wontonimo: :wave:

Wontonimo: what are you working on OTOK ?

Default avatar.png andrefalt: i'm new

Default avatar.png andrefalt: This game is fun

Default avatar.png andrefalt: Ngl

Wontonimo: what are you working on?

Default avatar.png JustinZhang: How can I identify the color in smash the code

Default avatar.png JustinZhang: I just random number and it is stupid

ProCoder03: Good Morning guys!!

Husoski: Evening, here. Just got a fresh earthquake alert. 4.9 about 40 miles away. Not feeling anything so far.

Default avatar.png zaraptwillbebeaten: scary

ProCoder03: :scream::frowning:

Husoski: It's been marked down to a 4.3 by USGS, so it's much smaller than the phone alert said. I didn't feel a thing. But if it's a pre-shock...

ProCoder03: which area ??

Husoski: LA south bay, near Long Beach

ProCoder03: I don't know abt LA...

Husoski: (CA, USA)

ProCoder03: but isn't LA close to san andreas fault

Husoski: San Andreas is father inland, but there's lots of fault lines throughout So Cal.

Default avatar.png zaraptwillbebeaten: 👋

ProCoder03: ohhh.. CA seems to be a Earthquake prone area :worried:

littlebear: morning

ProCoder03: morning littlebear

littlebear: :)

ProCoder03: are you from AP ??

littlebear: me ?, no Kerala

ProCoder03: Oh..
