na wa o, since yesterday.
It's not fair please leave me alone.

DanielTheGeek:
Guy chill nah... I have actually shared this exact code on quite a number of platforms including a book by one of my friends. So I wouldn't be surprised if Google popped up some duplicate..

Next time just chill instead of throwing false accusations...

Is the book published online?
Are you ChayDX on reddit?
The code looks very identical to his; https://www.reddit.com/user/ChayDX

Anyways, what's the purpose of parse_pair function in your code and where was it defined?

You guys should go and sleep.

damn, almost made it.

okay

hmm, hmm

kinibd:
Lol i see you in my dream as well so you must also be a dreamer!!!

Go and sleep.

kinibd:
Everybody don sleep, I don win am!!!

keep dreaming

Hmmmm

See me see wahala sha. *runs out of thread*

QueryUnical:
If he had posted in on StackOverflow he would have been discovered quickly as a cheat.
He did not think it was possible for folks on nairaland to quickly discover him as a cheat.

A large amount of questions asked on stackoverflow are from individuals at diverse workplaces who are aiming to meet a target set by their organisation or boss. So would you belong to the group that'll tell the individual that he is "cheating" since his boss didn't employ him/her to take shortcuts.

Moreso, if he wanted answers, he doesn't need to post it in that format, he would have just posted the questions only and no one would know.
Just my though oo

QueryUnical:
I just saw this now.I am not in good positon to offer a robust response now.

I did not know for sure if it wae indeed an ungoing job test, i only made a wide guess.Notice how i deliberately worded my post with a measure of uncertainty.Now u have cleared all doubt.
Pending the time I am able to give a robust response, I have just one question for u?If u know u were not cheating why did u not post in in stack overflow where u cam get abundant quick and good answers.

As to d viewers, If u have ever used stack overflow or codeproject before,u be d judgr.(Will be back)

I don't get. So if he had posted in stackoverflow it would have been better or what?
And not all questions on stackoverflow get quick response btw.

jaelz:
Heheh funny how he is not longer gonna comment on it again after the deed has been done, he is just gonna act like he aint seeing the notifications trooping in

He is not logged in yet.

vivie01:
Oga na night school I go jorh, speak in pidgin.

Shey the title of this thread na "Brain Teaser" na...

jaelz:
Amen jor thanks bro, it's well sha nothing happens. Lolz asin was so so busy travelling and attempting the question. The funniest thing was that it wasnt stipulated in the interview. Hope you good? By the way hope no be you go report me, *runs away*

Lol
Okay na...

jaelz:
haba bro if nah like that make them take down stackoverflow now show me which programmer never source for answers to a question online. asin it's so saddening that we Nigerians are just full of hate. Asin his argument was just just just so irrational it seems like he was among those wriiting the test and maybe he couldn't get it or he felt he was the only one that got so hence he felt cheated. I mean go online you see people posting projects and all sorts online, stackoverflow even explained it but i felt what i did was better. Brother it's so sad o.

I'm sorry.
I guess, i didn't apply rational thought at the right time, i would have attempted it.
But you sef didn't respond on time.

Anyway, one door closes and plenty others are left unexplored.

jaelz:
brother omo the guy reported me sent my profile to them, it's all good sha. Thanks though i tried my best

Whoa , well Success sha, better luck henceforth!!!
Me sef was carried away by QueryUnical argument.

vivie01:
shervydman, abeg borrow me that ur english word that means same apply to you cos this guy here is lying, hmmmm, I think say na pro something ........ and who told you I brushed my hair today?

how do you know that i don't know that you know that i knew that i don't know whether you did brush your hair today?

jaelz:
oga asking for hints is not a crime, why you taking it so personal, the first guy said i should google and understand the system whats your own stress? In that case stack overflow should be taken down also, asking for better understanding is no crime bro.

Where you able to get a solution?

Olyboy16:
@4kings , you cant find a line through the origin, thats an intercept bro. and a line ends at its last coord, why then would you put (0,0) and (10, 4) which are the first and last coord through the step distance calculations?
if you calculate x' =0 and y' =0, your result would give you a list of coords that forms a straight line, and when it reaches an absolute value of (10,4), then you have the end of the line.
there isn't any error in that solution, the fractional contigencies occur because all geometric dimensions are real values, but the loop assumes all values are integers, so there will be a cummulative degree of error for every iteration!
pick a geometry textbook and confirm my theory bro!

sorry for replying at this time though, i was charging my new iphoneX2

You and this your iphoneX2 sef . Me i'm still managinig my 3310 .

I didn't say you could find line through the origin, i said; "you're trying to calculate vector points" not line.
All coordinates from 0,0 to 10,4 are points of the segment A(10,4) aren't they? That's the essence of linear equation in finding and predicting points in any axis, not so?

And i'm aware that 0,0 is an intercept also, i noted that in my solution too.

Now according to you: if you calculate x' =0 and y' =0, your result would give you a listof coords that forms a straight line.

I find this odd, because coordinates are gotten through the linear equation.
But let's test your theory starting with (0,0), using python.

import math
##Using x2,x1 as (10, 2.5) and the corresponding y2,y1 as (4,1)
length = math.sqrt(pow(10-2.5,2) + pow(4-1, 2))
print(length)
>>>8.077747210701755

#Length is going up till 8, just to avoid error and extra code
for ln in range(0,int(length)):    
	x = math.cos(21.8 ) + (0 * ln)
	y = math.sin(21.8 ) + (0 * ln)
	print(x,y)

#Results;
-0.9817866687932767 0.18998667579543774
-0.9817866687932767 0.18998667579543774
-0.9817866687932767 0.18998667579543774
-0.9817866687932767 0.18998667579543774
-0.9817866687932767 0.18998667579543774
-0.9817866687932767 0.18998667579543774
-0.9817866687932767 0.18998667579543774
-0.9817866687932767 0.18998667579543774

Now if this is correct we should be able to prove this with the linear equation.

Let's start with the first coordinates; -0.9817866687932767 0.18998667579543774

b = intersection = 0
m = gradient = 0.4

When y is 0.18998667579543774.
x = (y - b)/m
print(x)
>>> 0.47496668948859433

You can see that the result contradicts yours.

Then you said; the fractional contigencies occur because all geometric dimensions are real values, but the loop assumes all values are integers, so there will be a cummulative degree of error for every iteration

This your statement sef, so you acknowledge that there will be errors, but still dey bring am up, bro na wa oo.

As per "pick a geometry textbook and confirm my theory bro!".
I have taken courses on statistical analysis for machine learning and the basic thing to know are vectors, but hey i might be sincerely wrong and possibly don't understand your theory, that's why i encourage you test it, even if you don't want to use code why not create time and test an iteration on paper, the degree of error as you saw in the result is not minute and when you test it with (10,4) the results are way off.

vivie01:
Just whining you. I rest my case

Stop lying, you brushed your hair today cos of peer pressure.

vivie01:
Now Im lost here
Its like you guys are hiding info, or is it not for girls to comb hair due to peer pressure

Ask Annnikky oo.
Shey u no be girl sef.

annnikky:
Na u know ooo

Lol, so u no wan tell me... issorite.

Cool.

Anime is bae

na so.

Well, that's not easy to get by. *code translation software*
It's not about cost per se, the idea just has not been cracked yet(at least in the opensource world).

But there are some useful examples like cython, though you have to specify some parameters for it to compile python to C code and JIT(just in time) compilers like PyPy but this still does not support python libraries written partly with other languages yet and i read it's not well funded at the moment which buttresses your argument.

So they are efforts, but we're not they yet.

AnonyNymous:
I don't know if I'm the only one that thinks this is kind of crazy. Why is everyone acting like what the op is doing is normal? Lol or is everyone just playing along?

Lol, We are playing along.
see this one; https://www.nairaland.com/4140099/genbuhari-head-worldwide-black-online

AnonyNymous:
Lol, those are the criteria (scientifically) that make a person attractive, apart from our individual tastes. Check out this meme

Wow, that's interesting.

vivie01:
Denial of hair that can be combed or denial of applying pressure to comb hair?

Lol..

vivie01:
Knew about it? No. Its just funny to me, how can pressure make a girl to comb hair, isnt that just natural?

Me sef no understand.
Maybe you're in denial.

vivie01:
This one is strong ooh

Very, but you're a girl, so is this a eureka moment or you knew about it.
