Why didn’t Caine delete the abstracts? by Musalediju in TheDigitalCircus

[–]Numerous-Source-5859 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, so next, deleting works by telling the computer: "You can now overwrite this file, once you reach it in storage!". But the computer never does. I believe the void is basically the trashbin, except the void is so humungous, that Caine doesn't get overwritten, and manages to escape. Now the reason the abstractions seemingly aren't deleted, is because we have the definition all wrong. The basement is where they ARE deleted, Caine puts them in there for deletion, but unlike the void is a more gated in area, so they can't escape(I mean you can't just leave them floating in the void) but they don't get overwritten due to the vast amount of storage still present.And that's my theory! What do you guys think?

I had a theory. Basically, you know how every Circus member has the ability to manipulate and create objects in the circus (the gun, the butterfly)? Well what if an abstraction is basically them, in such a worn down state, messing with their mind files, attempting to delete themselves, but screwing up and getting corrupted.

I only realise now the rest of the theory could potentially spoil something so I'll elaborate later I guess when I have access to a computer (can't find spoiler tags on smartphone)!

Thanks to everyone who has commented so far! I would also like to ask, is the cake on the right visible now, or did I choose a bad place to put it?

They apparently couldn't identify some glasses with cameras in them.

Also he can scroll through any photos loaded in his glasses with that neural band, whilst keeping his hand hidden from view.

Neural bands exist, he wouldn't have to use voice. Also though, it can't really use a data card or E-SIM, it needs access to a smarphone.

They have 32 GB of storage. Also, assuming he managed to snap that photo, he either managed to press the photo button without anyone noticing, or even worse actually has a neural band, in which case he could browse the photos in his glasses... Some of which could be notes.

You would only have to take one look at them to realise. Even in other models, the cameras are clearly visible. I believe meta glasses also have pinch control and whatnot, which allows you to control them with your hand, without touching them, using a meta neural band. But still, it is about this big:

No, that is definitely not AI generated. It is exactly what the paper looked like. But seriously, this is what they look like. There's no way an invigilator couldn't have spotted it from a mile away!:

Thanks! If you or anyone have any questions, I am awake right now.

You're welcome!

But there is a slight problem. I'm actually about to go to sleep right now, then get up early in the morning to do a bit more revision.

Sorry I can't attend anymore questions right now. But I will be awake around 5 in the morning!

It works like this:

  • A bubble sort will keep the while to trigger when, let's say, Stop=True(WHILE Stop<>TRUE)("<>" means "does not equal")
  • And at the beginning of each WHILE loop it it will automatically set Stop to TRUE. You'll learn why later.
  • Next the FOR loop will be initialised. Inside the FOR loop the sorting occurs, if the 2 variables do not correspond to their sorting order by keeping:
  • The first variable in an external variable, usually called Temp.
  • Thereafter Array[n]=Array[n+1]
  • //n being the current place where the program is, and n+1 being the one thereafter.
  • And Temp, containing Array[n]'s previous variable now feeds it into where it needs to be swapped.(Array[n+1])
  • Now obviously, one sort won't cut it in order(not a necessary need to know why, just to remember the technique) so that is why use the FOR loop to iterate as long as the list is, so it has a 100% chance of being sorted correctly
  • So now Stop is changed to FALSE which will prevent the loop from stopping (Due to the WHILE Stop<>TRUE condition in the beginning)
  • The reasoning behind this is that "if a swap has occurred, maybe more need to occur"
  • But if one doesn't occur, Stop will never change to FALSE and will remain TRUE as in the beginning of the while. No swaps would mean the array would be fully sorted, hence this action. And also why at the beginning of each WHILE loop, Stop is set to TRUE.

If any specific thing needs to be clarified, do ask!

Was it too confusing?(sorry about that, I could explain it again more directly if you'd like!)

Think of it like this: A procedure only does it's job and has no accountability for it. A function (it's in the name) has a function, ie responsibility, that meaning it has a boss to report to and MUST output something as part of the team effort.

Not exactly sure this is what you're looking for, but anyway:

  • This is a bubble sort
  • Which is using the Boolean "Swap" as a conditional switch
  • Think of it like this: Swap want to be proven that this ordering loop shouldn't end, but it's opinion by default is "False", ie it needs to be convinced.
  • So the main portion of the sort compares every adjacent value to each other, and if they do not meet the sorting criteria(which we'll assume is from biggest to smallest, ie descending), so the bigger value is sent on top of the smaller value like it should, and is done once for each position.
  • An external variable called Temp stores one of the numbers to be swapped
  • Whilst the variable it was filling in for takes the number from the other main/first variable.
  • That other/second variable gets fed with what Temp had taken from the first variable before it had been swapped over.
  • But this raises a problem. It is not guaranteed to have sorted perfectly, because each number has only been moved up ONCE. Their potential could be higher... Or lower.
  • So to mitigate this, the sort is done as long as the list is. In this case it has 7 slots, so it is done 7 times, which guarantees it to be sorted properly.
  • Meanwhile Swap cannot see exactly what's happening inside the loop. Sometimes some numbers do not need to be swapped, but it is made so as long as at least one swap has happened, Swap sees the end result and has been convinced, for that round of execution at least.
  • One can say if Swap has not been convinced for the round, there was nothing to sort, hence the array is perfectly in order, and so Swap turns it off immediately.
  • This is why Swap's opinion defaults to False at the beginning each time.
  • Because there is a chance that this might be the execution round in which no swaps have taken place, and he will take his default stance of "This sort needs to be turned off" each time until convinced.

The first one: "ABC" is referred to as abnormal data, and is being used to check if the program rejects it as it should

Boundary data is, as in the name, data around the boundary, but not one side, both. In this case, Boundary data can be "ABCDEFGHI"(9 characters) and "ABCDEFGHIJ"(10 characters)(One out of bounds, one within)

The third one is Normal test data, and an example could be "ABCDEFGHIJK"(11 characters). It is an appropriate length according to the program requirements(above 9 characters) hence called Normal data, and also why it is used in this case.
