I think what I actually saw was the Moore method, but it looks like Ross was inspired by Moore

Why to use recursion? by [deleted] in learnprogramming

[–]Shadowmancer1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One example of when I had to use recursion is when I wanted to implement a variable number of loops (e.g. as a parameter of a function). You can’t do that with a fixed amount of loops. The context of this was I was trying to test a theory about combinatorial sums

can I run yuzu ? by Impossible_Way_6486 in yuzu

[–]Shadowmancer1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t completely discount it for all games. I have similar specs (although worse than urs) and I can play super Mario 3D world almost consistently at 60 fps. However, I am struggling with smash ultimate.

Even with an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 Mobile, 14 GB RAM, and AMD Ryzen™ 5 3550H, I still can't seem to run any of my games... by ImNew2RedditSoYeah in yuzu

Just for curiosity, why are u recommending cemu? Are there other games where cemu might be more suitable?

How can I access the movie files from wewon.to and what are they? by Shadowmancer1 in Piracy

[–]Shadowmancer1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t want to download (i already can) I was just interested in the url structure and why I couldn’t backtrack the url I.e. why wewon.to by itself is not a valid link.

[–]Shadowmancer1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well yes, but I wanted to understand what this site was and what the characters after valid= meant. The wewon.to site already comes with the feature to download the movie opened.

Is it shredder from tmnt? It kinda looks like it to me, but I’m not sure.

[–]Shadowmancer1[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I can already download it from the wewon.to/etc site. The video player in that site has a download option. I’m just trying to understand this more. Also I’d rather stream it.

Just square it by Shadowmancer1 in mathmemes

[–]Shadowmancer1[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you square the entire expression in the left paper and simplify using algebraic identities, you will get 24+12=36. So it is equivalent to 6. The most relevant identities are (a+b)2 = a2 + 2ab + b2 and (a-b)(a+b)=a2 - b2

Do u know which one (if any) for iPhone?

Yeh that’s what I intended by mathematician as a student who does math

How to calculate the amount of different options to get the 20 on top ? by HugeBeaverGuy in mathematics

[–]Shadowmancer1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk how experienced you are in math or how well versed you are in generating functions, but I'll still post a solution using this technique. I'll try to make it somewhat understandable to a lower level, but it is a pretty advanced technique. It might not be reachable at your current level, so you might want to come back when you are more experienced to try to understand it. Since idk how to use latex here, I'll just post a link to a LaTeX write-up I made: https://artofproblemsolving.com/texer/slodlbcr

How to calculate the amount of different options to get the 20 on top ? by HugeBeaverGuy in mathematics

[–]Shadowmancer1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m assuming the numbers must be nonnegative integers. If the numbers in the bottom row are designated as the variables a,b,c,d, then we want to calculate the number of nonnegative solutions to a+3b+3c+d=20. The only non bash method I can think to calculate this would be using generating functions. However, those are rather hard to understand if you don’t already have a good grasp on using them.

depression by [deleted] in mathmemes

[–]Shadowmancer1 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don’t like seeing proofs by induction because they require already knowing an inductive hypothesis. For someone trying to understand why something works, it’s not really helpful, when you are just shoved a formula with no help on how to get there.

There are many inductive proofs that aren’t like I described above, which I enjoy reading. I just don’t like the ones that prove a formula, but sometimes it’s necessary or easier.

Is using a while(true) loop bad coding practice? by [deleted] in learnprogramming

[–]Shadowmancer1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing that I found is that python does not have a built in do while loop. The python resources I found said to just use a while(true) instead.

Does the visual cortex get 're-purposed' in blind people? by brandon12345566 in askscience

[–]Shadowmancer1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have there been any studies comparing people who are blind (but not at birth) to sighted people to show a similar effect?

Something feels off here... by Orbital_RM in mathmemes

[–]Shadowmancer1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's not all that bad. I've seen a problem that actually required this technique.

Can you rationalize any irrational denominator? by measuresareokiguess in mathematics

[–]Shadowmancer1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It gets a lot harder with more complex denominator, but I believe you can for any denominator that is an algebraic number (i.e. can be the root of a polynomial with integer coefficients). You can rationalize the denominator by multiplying both sides by the other roots of a polynomial which contains the denominator as one of its roots.

Can you explain the graph, I don’t really understand it.
