amulet:
$responsiveness = "very good";
$color ="not so cool";
$sitecontent="awesome";

echo " well I checked the site out and the essence of it was really $sitecontent , although your color scheme was $color , try to improve it. overall your site is responsive which is $responsiveness ......keep up the good work .";
you'll make a great software developer, not a compliment; only an observation.

no soul, no blood, no family, its got nothing to loose. but what about us? saudi is starting to behave like the end time nation of anti-christ!
when we all thought it was the USA, saudi has proved us wrong! so now that thing will have the same rights as i do? i still can't phantom this though.
ProgrammingRe: Challenge Me by Olyboy16(m): 10:34am On Oct 27, 2017
@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

^^ ok if you feel windows 10 is that cool......a mac user will just install it using bootcamp but u can never get the mac experience on a PC...... NEVER (hackintosh is total rubbish)

And for those saying you only need a brain for programming well you also need tools too its very very important......your brain only solves the problem but what about implementation?....how will a serious programmer wait for hours just to compile a code (windows pc with 2gb ram) while keeping the client waiting cuz you are waiting. .......fairly used laptops are risky as they can misbehave at anytime., you may not be lucky as you watch all your hours of hard work churning out code die with the failing disk.
define mac experience.
explain why anyone in their sane minds will boot windows(10!!) on their mac.
and oga boss sir, compiling on windows isnt in anyway slower that it is on unix systems...what are you even saying sef? haha!

If so when x is 2.5 and y is 1.
The equation would be; x' = 10 - (2.5 + ni) and y' = 4 - (1 + nj)

Now i don't know what you mean by loop controls in order to determine ni and nj.
This is why i need an explanation, i'm a little bit good at math, so you can throw in some more light to what you had in mind behind the equations.
the other solution i took from intuition and twas heading to chaos when i solved it manually, so i guess the only way to solve this will be to use plain basic maths.
.
you'll agree with me that we'll find line angle by atan(y2/x2),
then line length by sqrt(pow(x2-x1,2) + pow(y2-y1, 2)),
x' = x1, y' = y1;
for 0 to length as ln:
x' = cos(angle) + x' * ln;
y' = sin(angle) + y' * ln;
end for
.
a set of (x', y') is a solution.
implement that and see. no wonder whiztim gave me cold shoulders; thanks for pointing out my jargon bro

Hold on...

You said; {(x', y')} should be a proper set of all steps from (x, y) to A(x,y) or (x2, y2), therefore x and y are the individual coordinates from (0, 0) to (10, 4) right?

If so when x is 2.5 and y is 1.
The equation would be; x' = 10 - (2.5 + ni) and y' = 4 - (1 + nj)

Now i don't know what you mean by loop controls in order to determine ni and nj.
If i assume ni and nj are always changing and that's the same case for (x,y), then i'm totally confused on how it'll yeild the right result.

This is why i need an explanation, i'm a little bit good at math, so you can throw in some more light to what you had in mind behind the equations.
now this is my number 2 guy on NL!
.
ni will be a loop on a range of 9...0, and nj will be 3...0.
so a result would be in the form of
[10 - (2.5 + 9), 4 - (1 + 3)],
[10 - (2.5 + cool, 4 - (1 + 2)],
wait!!
dang! that solution is wrong.
hold on, leme get some fix

What's your forte for interesting challenges then?
1. i'm sorry sir, but i don't know how to write the code for that; dhtml118 is really good at coding things like that; if he would grace the honour though.

2. i only solve that which i can solve, i just pick and leave the rest.

It was a constructive argument (xml vs json), I can see the other dude too is quite vast. We declared draw in the end.
We both agreed that both have their uses, and cannot entirely replace each other all the time. But when it comes to database engine, and compression - json is best.
thought as much, xml happens to be very vast, comparing xml against json is like comparing python and java.

With the assumptions that the cells are square and each corner is a coordinate (x,y)...

Then I think the cells cut through by a line is

cells = max(abs(x), abs(y))
your x and y are what sir? please add more logic to your assertion

Hmn, I cannot help but notice too. . . .I am somewhere else off nairaland battling someone over advantages of xml over json (i am for json, while the other unfortunate dude is for xml - we are still at draws, no winner yet)
json against xml? there'd be no winner if the other guy knows his tuff well. infact, aside being lightweight, js compatible, favoured by startups and easy data recovery; a good xml fanatic may seriously floor you.

I am going to be honest, your best bet is Reddit, this is beyond the typical crud app scenario NL is used to, the commercial aspect is tricky, I know Qt too has some form of license to it, the reason i mentioned Reddit is because there will be someone who went through what you did.
thanks sire, Qt does too, Qt clearly specifies the non GPL parts of its products unlike those guys at oracle.
i'll probably just go on with the migration for now, though java has been really amazing. thanks, i'll reach out to dudes on reddit too by God's Grace.
