tuanpenspinner: hi

MrZee: Ok, now I've officially done my first hard level puzzle! Thought I did yesterday, but it was actually medium lol

ninjadip: tight

ninjadip: i'm here trying to get this farmer and his pet wolf and goat on the same side of the river

Xascoria: why would a farmer have a pet wolf

MrZee: You don't have a pet wolf?

Xascoria: i have but im not a farmer

Rafal12333: .

Aimal: how do i use boost in mad pod?

Thorcode: just print("Boost") if you want

Aimal: i did that, but it doesn't seem like it's working

5DN1L: replace the thrust with BOOST

Aimal: here this is my code:

Aimal: http://chat.codingame.com/pastebin/ef690e0a-0b8d-4158-a4fe-1c6896adec1f

Aimal: ignore the empty space between checkpoint y and boost

Thorcode: nô

Thorcode: no

5DN1L: Did you forget "else"? Aimal

Thorcode: del the nextCheckpointX + " " + nextCheckpointY + " " + at the print boost sentence

derjack: :upside_down:

Aimal: does having else matters here?

Thorcode: i think no

Aimal: so do you know how do I fix it?

Uljahn: without else you will print twice

Aimal: i just added the else

Aimal: but it still doesnt boost

Uljahn: you have one boost only

Uljahn: every next boost is equal to max thrust

Aimal: what?

Aimal: so how do I fix that

Thorcode: fix what?

Aimal: he said "every boost is equal to max thrust" so how do i not make it equal to max thrust

Uljahn: use it once per race

Aimal: but like how?

Aimal: should I delete the if statement

Thorcode: dunno

5DN1L: We need to see your whole code

Thorcode: it depend in this nextCheckPointDist < 500 i think

Uljahn: guess you could use a boolean variable to track the state of your boost, add a condition to use boost when it's available, and make it unavailable after the use

Aimal: this is the whole code

Aimal: http://chat.codingame.com/pastebin/a76de271-4eab-485d-aaf6-3291cc9f4b5a

5DN1L: You need to add a space before BOOST

derjack: like System.out.println( nextCheckpointX + " " + nextCheckpointY + "spaceBOOST" );

5DN1L: 💯

5DN1L: Automaton2000 spaceBOOST now

Automaton2000: i thought you meant that

RaymondPang: hello everyone

RaymondPang: i am playing abalone

RaymondPang: i am stuck at wood 1 league

RaymondPang: how can i get promoted?

RaymondPang: to next level?

RaymondPang: any hints or help can i search?

derjack: its typical minimax or mcts game

derjack: do you have simulation of next moves

derjack: and abalone is community game, so wood1 is the highest league

RaymondPang: really? wood 1 is the highest... ~.~"

RaymondPang: i keep trying to improve the rank...

Iceblock28: someone can give to me the solution of ascii srt episode 1__

Passifi: Hey y'all anyone who could tell my code here just never exists the last while loop ? I coded a test version of it in visual studio code and there it works fine... and I am really at a loss here

Passifi: http://chat.codingame.com/pastebin/05e9a28f-be3d-4c54-8ea4-e454e0f915a5

Passifi: it is in c++ :)

Passifi: the error stream does give me a 0 value when the pointer is set to NULL and then the while loop doesn't seem to repeat anymore, but the execution just stops seemingly, can't make heads or tails of it.

therealbeef: in the if statements you are dereferencing the target pointer

Passifi: ohhh

therealbeef: if it's 0, those lines cause crash

Passifi: yeah I get it ... silly thanks

therealbeef: you're welcome

ninjadip: if using c++ and pointers you should use the nullptr for null and not NULL

ninjadip: nullptr is a keyword that represents zero as an address (its type is considered a pointer-type), while NULL is the value zero as an int

Marcos_Rocha: :grin:

Uljahn: featured puzzle event again :pensive:

ninjadip: yay

ninjadip: what is it

Uljahn: similar to puzzle of the week with voting for the best solution

ninjadip: i meant what is the event... not what is an event

Uljahn: https://www.codingame.com/events

Uljahn: i don't understand you, sry :slight_smile:

ninjadip: oh it's unknown

ninjadip: what the puzzle is Uljahn, i was wondering. i've only done one, i forgot they don't tell you until it starts

Uljahn: ah, i see

Uljahn: they don't tell PotW either

frranciscoglo: hola

ninjadip: pot?

derjack: is multiplayer game a puzzle?

Uljahn: indeed, some multis happend to be PotW

ninjadip: whats pot2

ninjadip: potw

Uljahn: puzzle of the week

Uljahn: you can find past potws in your notifications (click "show read")

ninjadip: k

derjack: is mayonnaise an instrument

TKirishima: Hello World

Uljahn: guess you can hammer a nail with frozen mayo

Aquajag: i swear i'm looking at classic puzzles and i can't even understand what they're asking me to do....

5DN1L: which ones

Aquajag: anything medium. like "there is no spoon." find a node and neighbor. what?? input is number and somehow I'm supposed to know what a node is?

5DN1L: there is an example

5DN1L: in the statement itself

Aquajag: i'll admit i didn't scroll that far before my brain gave out

5DN1L: always do so then!

Uljahn: might be better to start on easy puzzles though, there are some with hints

KalamariKing: even the easy puzzles can be difficult to beginners, keep that in mind

MysteriousGirl: anyone a C++ pro here?

5DN1L: you asked the same question yesterday didn't you

MysteriousGirl: ye ig

struct: I barely know c++

abt8601: I can write things with C++, but not really a pro

slogslog: What task will come now? Compute the sum of two integers?

struct: that task is not trivial

Hugesn0wduck: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/627499651

Hugesn0wduck: pog

5DN1L: just the right time for that

darkhorse64: If you feel a CoC is pure crap, downvote it, it will be eliminated if enough people share your opinion

Uljahn: can we eliminate all CoCs from the pool? :thinking:

Ceekay77: :rolling_eyes:

Hugesn0wduck: fish yumyum watermelooooooooooon

slogslog: Slowest of the 100%.... well, better than a stone against the head.

slogslog: Ah.... 14:46 good job

struct: coc is just memorization after a while

Angs: How large is the question pool?

eulerscheZahl: 1636 or so

eulerscheZahl: https://eulerschezahl.herokuapp.com/codingame/puzzles/?q=&category=CLASHOFCODE&title=on&statement=on&tests=on&comments=on&tags=on&author=on

eulerscheZahl: some are already removed because of poor rating

eulerscheZahl: and one of them breaks my formatting at the bottom

slogslog: to be honest. Such a Clash of Code week is nice if the clashes are diffictult enough but I like this site much more for the puzzles.

slogslog: But it's good for novice coders.

Angs: I only saw one Haskell CoC: who's the fastest to write a*x+b

Angs: Wasn't really worth the wait

Angs: Better clash curation would have been nice

MohamedMiri: hello , does the Coc rating in the end of Coc do something ?

Uljahn: it affects your rank

eve_va_hooves_the_king_of_losers: it would take 15 EMPs to take out the whole U.S.

5DN1L: it would take 1 more spam for you to be kicked out

MohamedMiri: no , when we rate the CoC

eve_va_hooves_the_king_of_losers: fine, is it probably to make a coded EMP?

Wontonimo: hi antiwonto

antiwonto: [automated] hey Wontonimo. I'm a bot :robot:

5DN1L: you wanted to code a lot of things, but did you ever start on any ONE of them, eve_va_hooves_the_king_of_losers?

Wontonimo: making new definitions has been disabled

eve_va_hooves_the_king_of_losers: i coded one thing

struct: But old ones are still active?

Wontonimo: mcts

antiwonto: [automated] 'MCTS' was defined as ' Monte Carlo Tree Search ' by Wontonimo

Wontonimo: some

Wontonimo: i had to curate it a bit

Wontonimo: (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻

5DN1L: eve_va_hooves_the_king_of_losers, just one?

eve_va_hooves_the_king_of_losers: yup, the other are not possible with my coding skill

Wontonimo: make 100 that are within your coding skills. that's how you get more skills

struct: try breakthrough simple game

eve_va_hooves_the_king_of_losers: im still working on my skill on anytime i can

5DN1L: how?

5DN1L: don't see you solve more puzzles here?

eve_va_hooves_the_king_of_losers: i have homework and that takes time

Marn: Depending on what you want to make you might have to do some research into what you have to work with. Your skill might not even be what's stopping you.

eve_va_hooves_the_king_of_losers: i try to do the best on my homework

5DN1L: good for you. what homework do you have? coding assignments?

eve_va_hooves_the_king_of_losers: i mean in school, and im trying to get into coding classes

struct: you dont need coding classes to learn how to code

KP56: why are clashes so weird now

eve_va_hooves_the_king_of_losers: plus i cant work on coding outside of school

KP56: its more like daily tournaments

5DN1L: KP56 you can still get usual clashes

Uljahn: it's a new type of events

Wontonimo: antiwonto what do you do?

antiwonto: [automated] Here are the commands I know : identify bad words, redirect clash of code, lmgtfy, share definition, welcome known user, say hi, award taco, welcome new user, what can the bot do

antiwonto: [automated] You used your taco giving ability for the day to discover that you cannot give tacos to yourself

5DN1L: eve_va_hooves_the_king_of_losers why can't you do coding outside of school?

eve_va_hooves_the_king_of_losers: im not trusted

struct: code in your head

5DN1L: you don't have a computer at home? eve_va_hooves_the_king_of_losers

Wontonimo: with pen and paper

eve_va_hooves_the_king_of_losers: i do but im not trusted

Wontonimo: pen and paper , that's how i did 80% of my coding for the first 5 years

eve_va_hooves_the_king_of_losers: i brought the computer two year ago and i have not touched it for a year and few months

Wontonimo: draw out work flows, draw out data diagrams, write out the function names you'll use

5DN1L: and? eve_va_hooves_the_king_of_losers

Marn: "Not trusted" can you elaborate ?

eve_va_hooves_the_king_of_losers: i did some "stuff"

5DN1L: you're talking in riddles

Uljahn: you did "attention seeking"? :scream_cat:

Marn: Oh, he's japanese

Marn: That explains it

eve_va_hooves_the_king_of_losers: im not japaanese

Wontonimo: yup, attention seeking

5DN1L: at least some coding-related fiction

eve_va_hooves_the_king_of_losers: i stopped that since i went to "health center"

Wontonimo: go do programming eve, then come back

eve_va_hooves_the_king_of_losers: but im doing homework

Wontonimo: I've given you a few min time out. Please come back *after* you've programmed and hhave something programming related to talk about

eve_va_hooves_the_king_of_losers: i have one last question rn then i'll do coding

Wontonimo: no

5DN1L: better focus on your homework OR programming

Wontonimo: another and i'll ban. ttake a break for the day eve

Marn: In C++ are structs just public classes are are there more differences ?

struct: they are just public by default

Wontonimo: not that i'm aware of

Wontonimo: what struct said

Ceekay77: yup, struct is correct

Andriamanitra: aren't structs also passed by value?

Andriamanitra: quick googling says yes, and also structs are allocated on the stack rather than on the heap like classes

struct: Classes are not stored on the heap

struct: are we talking about c++?

Andriamanitra: yes, i guess geeksforgeeks is wrong then (which does not surprise me much)

struct: you can store it in the heap or stack

Ceekay77: both can be stack or heap, depending on how you allocate

Ceekay77: Personally, I rarely use a struct without allocating it dynamically from the heap

ninjadip: structs and classes differ from their ability to encapsulate/polymorph and all that cool class stuff right?

ninjadip: i usually use structs for small things that can stand alone and that have no methods. just like a structure of variables, no methods on how to act, i know they can, but that's what i do

SandmanSW96: what language ninjadip ?

bmacho: well I hate both structs and classes equally

bmacho: esp in c++ and in other languages

ZackEdwards: woohoo!

bmacho: the very top Java solution represents points in a grid as numbers, and calls x[i] and y[i] for their coordinates instead of p.x and p.y

BlaiseEbuth: bmacho doesn't like C++! Delete the language!

Pollard_Rho_Algorithm: Pollard_Rho_Algorithm

antiwonto: [automated] That's a user! Did you know that they have 10 tacos?
