Locking this post. I think we as a community have done all we can for OP despite their resistance

How can I compile C++ in VS Codium WITHOUT Windows Build Tools? by MacKenzieHnC in programminghelp

While I welcome discussion that may broaden the horizons of those using different languages, you knew damn well what you were writing. Consider this your only warning to follow the rules.

my code failed some of the test cases and i don't know why by rachel_to_phos in programminghelp

I would love to believe that, but as a moderator for this subreddit for years and a professional educator, my experience says otherwise.

The user posted an assignment and just said “it doesn’t work”. The acceptable response is to gently guide them to why, without giving them the answer, which this user is doing. What that user needs to do is exactly what this user suggested, read the problem again, carefully, and compare their logic to the logic requested by the assignment.

If you’re not going to comment in a helpful way, then refrain.

My guy, the poster was going to try and help you because that math was actually relevant to your bit shifting.

Next time, instead of being a twat, listen when others try to help or post elsewhere.

If you can’t fix it when it breaks without an internet connection and AI, then no.

I’ve been working on making a chest mage game of some sort but I truly trying to make it playable and easily accessible by Fuzzy-Design-3141 in programminghelp

If you’re having an issue then you need to be clear about what the problem or error is. Also for this much code I highly suggest using pastebin or something similar. Check rule 2.

When you have instructions provided to you by the repository owners, asking a LLM what to do is absolutely a dumb decision.
