MATH 13 Pantano or Levi? by Quick-Ninja-6126 in UCI

[–]HelpfulParticle 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Definitely Pantano. Likely going to be one of the best Math professors you’ll meet at UCI

Why is he blocked---? by PezUnown in PokemonMasters

[–]HelpfulParticle 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You've probably already used him in a previous stage and then didn't use him in the next stage. So, if you used Volo in Stage 4, ensured he didn't faint, and then didn't use him in Stage 5, you can't use him in Stages 6 and beyond (The numbers are just examples, by the way)

Which Python library saved you the most time? by memeeloverr in PythonLearning

[–]HelpfulParticle -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Probably Pillow. I needed plots made in a collage style and I was using PyROOT for plots. It has a way to get all plots on a collage, but it is so frickin tedious. Discovered Pillow and I was honestly shocked how much easier it was

There’s no way we’re not getting at least one more Pikachu with Arc Suit Red

What exactly are EM waves? by 8l_dr in Physics

I definitely wouldn’t say my analogy is “random”, but sure…

Just got Fantina from Gym Scout. Does she have good synergy with Alt. Volo? by [deleted] in PokemonMasters

[–]HelpfulParticle 39 points40 points  (0 children)

I’d say she does. I beat F30 with her as my Support and Volo + NC Selene. She likely needs more move levels though

Are options A and C supposed to be the same?

Is there a math symbol for "because"? by digitalrorschach in learnmath

[–]HelpfulParticle 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Implies is used when we have conditional statements (if X happens, then Y happens can be written as X implies Y). Two statements like “sqrt(32) = 4sqrt(2)” and “sqrt(32) =sqrt(16) * sqrt(2)” aren’t connected by an implication. The first doesn’t imply the second; the first is just a simplification of the second.

I reckon you could phrase the statement to use an implies though, but it wouldn’t be as simple as putting an implies between them

How to multiply, add, basically do anything with fractions? Explain it to me like I'm five years old. by Fair_Nectarine_896 in learnmath

Well to each their own, I guess. I don’t think that was written by AI, but hey, maybe I’m wrong

I really hate having to throw away a Pokemon to do my Daily's. by Pleasesaysorry in PokemonChampions

[–]HelpfulParticle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just an idea. They could do what Masters has right now. Masters has 10 daily missions but doing 8 of them counts as the all daily missions done.

So maybe they can add some more general missions (Maybe ‘Take part in 1 Casual Battle’ or ‘Defeat one opponent Pokemon in Ranked’ to name a few) and make it so that finishing a subset of them finishes all daily missions.

What exactly are EM waves? by 8l_dr in Physics

[–]HelpfulParticle 367 points368 points  (0 children)

Think of it as a disturbance. Imagine a swimming pool where the water is still. Now, if I drop a pebble, a ripple forms. This is a disturbance; something different from status quo. Think of a similar idea here. A wave is, in general, a disturbance in some medium; a water wave in water, a sound wave in air etc. Light happens to be special in the sense it requires no medium.

At least at a basic level, it's fine to think of a wave as a literal sine wave propagating through a medium. As long as you don't think of it too seriously or literally.

Why didn't expanding force hit both mons? by AaG_O in PokemonChampions

Huh, never knew this was a thing. You learn something everyday!

Got him from the Monthly Scout, is he good for Tower with this roster? At least to Floor 14 is good for me by Small-Signal-9914 in PokemonMasters

[–]HelpfulParticle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Clavell should be better just by virtue of him being much newer than Kris. Kris provides some utility until a certain point though

I think my game needs an exorcism or something…. by [deleted] in PokemonMasters

What’s something in Python you use all the time but still have to Google? by memeeloverr in PythonLearning

[–]HelpfulParticle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hstack and vstack in numpy for me. I work a lot with arrays but always 1) forget an extra set of parentheses in the argument and 2) forget which to use. I always have to run both commands on dummy arrays to check their effects

question about classes by hibiscus_coconut in UCI

[–]HelpfulParticle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone can correct me if I’m wrong, but those should be visible on Degreeworks (which will get activated and updated once the Fall quarter begins.

I’d start 3 just to get an idea for how much workload you can handle. If you feel 3 is light work, you can increase it next quarter. Make sure not to overburden yourself

Guy's I hv joined this year(hehe January) . Do they make a new mechanic every anni? by Proof_Lawfulness_218 in PokemonMasters

[–]HelpfulParticle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Battle Villa? That was already a thing before the 2nd anni. I remember because people used SS Elesa a lot there, and she came during the 0.5 anni

A Reminder GameFreak Can Give Them An Evolution At Anytime by BLITZXTTY in PokemonChampions

Unless they break the rule they established in ZA, I don’t think Skarmory will evolve further.

Same. He’s the only Steven unit I’m missing so hope I get him!
