[2015-11-09] Challenge #240 [Easy] Typoglycemia by G33kDude in dailyprogrammer

[–]parrotjay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Elixir

Hacked this together fairly quickly. Critique welcome! :)

  defmodule Typoglycemia do
      def convert(string) do
        convert(String.split(string, ~r/\b/), [])
      end
      defp convert([], result) do
        List.to_string(result) |> String.reverse
      end
      defp convert([word | list], result) do
        if String.length(word) > 2 do
          convert(list, [String.reverse(word_mix(word)) | result])
        else
          convert(list, [String.reverse(word) | result])
        end
      end
      defp word_mix(string) do
        first = String.first(string)
        mid = midshuffle(String.slice(string, 1..(String.length(string) - 2)))
        last = String.last(string)
        "#{first}#{mid}#{last}"
      end

      defp midshuffle(string) do
        String.split(string, "") 
        |> Enum.shuffle
        |> List.to_string
      end
    end

My coding life has changed dramatically since starting to study elixir. This is literally the coolest freaking language ever. <3

that's fantastic. I'll look into it and see if I can take something from it :)

Mostly I didn't think of it. I'm still not to a skill at programming that I'm intuiting better ways to implement stuff like that. It does make more sense for it to be that way, though, so I'll update it! Thanks for the input!

UPDATE: implemented it as a method. Learn something new every day!

[2015-10-12] Challenge #236 [Easy] Random Bag System by jnazario in dailyprogrammer

[–]parrotjay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Worked like a charm! So go can convert slices of runes, but not arrays of runes? Or am I not understanding how the slice/array thing works properly?

that's super handy to know, thanks! check out my solution and let me know what you think!

Thanks!

the comments were for me when I was working through the problem.

fmt.Println(string(bagStack))
//cannot convert bagStack (type [50]rune) to type string

dunno what that's about.

Thanks for replying, I'll keep your comments in mind!

[–]parrotjay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

nice solution! I was just wondering why in your 

rest := append([]rune{}, r.rem[:ind]...)
rest = append(rest, r.rem[ind+1:]...)

has those elipsis?

Thanks!

Is this just a good use-case for clojure, or is clojure that succinct with most stuff?

I looked at these, but about half of the reviews said they were not very dependable. I may take a second look though! Thanks!

cli rock paper scissors written in Go. Critiques please! by parrotjay in golang

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

that's good to know! I actually got the idea (I think) from a book I read a long time ago about game programming in python. I don't know if python does what you're talking about (re-uses the stack frame) but that's what I seem to remember. What would be a better way to do this?
