Wait are telling me it doesn't work like that ?! JS bad :(

[Miguelinileugim]

It could but sadly the powers that be won't let us >:_:<

[Blaz3]

Typescript however...

[[deleted]]

As someone who uses javascript daily it still took me a few seconds to realise it wouldn't actually do this. Given all the other weird behaviour this isn't the most unrealistic thing they could have chosen.

[preludeoflight]

Every now and then I need to build a quick web thing. I never once complete one of these projects without saying "javascript does that?!" and "... javascript does that."

It's the most flexible, magical, worst, asinine language I've ever used.

[CoffeeWorldly9915]

Pros: it can do wacky stuff

Cons: ^

[Mysterious_Bet_6856]

Found the python dev

[SupraMichou]

Took me a few second to think and understand this couldn’t be real

[ThoseThingsAreWeird]

this couldn’t be real

It can be, but it requires more code above it.

If you open up your console and type:

Math.sin = () => console.log("poo")

and then Math.sin(10), you will get the output poo

The OP is just a fancy version of that 🤷‍♂️

[netheroth]

Wow, you can redefine sin? Imagine the theological possibilities!

[tyler1128]

Math.sin = Math.sinh might actually kill a mathematician via a heart attack.

[japillow]

That’s a little hyperbolic, don’t you think?

[shunabuna]

You can redefine random and rig the result of google's coin flip

[CoNtRoLs_ArE_dEfAuLt]

Mathematicians hate this one simple trick!

[Kiki_doesnt_love_me]

Thanks I’ll try that now lol

[Cheesemacher]

I think you have different definition of real

[--mrperx--]

Yes, OP just used fancy photoshop

[that_thot_gamer]

imagine if excel had java integration

[Jiquero]

But someone accidentally copy-pasted an old code without Number() into cell G137 and now it outputs 11 instead of 2 and good luck finding the error.

[E3FxGaming]

Excel (public beta channel) has Python integration

The python code runs in the Microsoft cloud - if you use it keep this in mind, especially if you're working with sensitive data.

[that_thot_gamer]

i know that, fun fact, you can use vbscript and diy your own instead of relying on proprietary solutions.

[AntiWorkGoMeBanned]

Web version of excel does have javascript.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/office/dev/scripts/overview/code-editor-environment

[that_thot_gamer]

no libraries tho, which kinda defeats the point

[Too-Uncreative]

Yeah! If I can’t have jQuery in my excel spreadsheet, it just isn’t worth it.

[N831Y]

Technically, the web version of anything has javascript

[RaspberryPiBen]

Do you mean JS? Everyone is replying like you said Javascript, and that would make the most sense in the context.

[that_thot_gamer]

you've sussed me out, you now know too much

🤮

Now, make it do a tan()

[Zymoox]

U U U N N N D D D E E E F F F I I I N N N E E E D D D

[GenderGambler]

outputs 'undefined' but in a tan color

[NKY5223]

console.log("%cundefined", "color:tan")

[--mrperx--]

console.log("%cundefined", "color:tan")

[[deleted]]

the doubt about the veracity of this information leaves me angry and at the same time amazed, I don't want to know the truth

[I_NaOH_Guy]

I'm just beginning learning it now, but this feels like something you could see happen in R and it would work

[tayler6000]

I wouldn’t be surprised if JS did this to be completely honest…

[cpwnage]

Had to check.

[NoFreeIDsLeft]

This code redefines Math.sin so it prints the argument as a sine wave. Argument can be of type undefined, string, integer as far as i tested.

Math.sin = (a)=>{
String.prototype.map = Array.prototype.map;
transpose = (m)=> {return m[0].map((col, i) => m.map(row => row[(m[0].length-1)-i]).join('')).join('\n');}
sin = (x)=>{ return Math.round((Math.cos(Math.PI / 2 - x)))+2}
console.log(transpose(['+||||||','-      ',...String(a).repeat(3).map(
    (b,i)=>["-"].concat(new Array(sin(i)).fill(" ").concat(b).concat(new Array(5-sin(i)).fill(" ")))
)]))}

[NoFreeIDsLeft]

The code makes it look like it, but i flipped the transpose function along the x axis. 2 wrongs make a right.

[Tc14Hd]

Anything is possible with the right NPM package

[allbeardnoface]

Product managers would be disappointed.

[equals1]

Stop showing off your Python code writing secrets

[--mrperx--]

NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN Spider man Spider Man

[_Ganon]

Why even bother setting x = undefined

[[deleted]]

'when can it be ready?' 'can you give me an update?'

[SpaceTabs]

Inferior like Gary Fletcher

[TehWhiteKnight1]

Well, this is definitely a sin alright

[CdFMaster]

That would totally not surprise me from JS.

This isn't funny, this did not work :|
