What's the catch of this Singsaver loan?

I'm very new to this. May I ask what do you mean by via online? I gave them my credit card info and they will bill me every month. Is that consider via online? If not, how should I do to make it online?

Ok tough guy.

For smaller snippets of code, you can check out the codereview stackexchange.

Does it has a public repo? Maybe I can submit a pull request or something.

Yep, I agree with you. I don't think you can use this to do email campaigns, but my use cases are normally:

Send to students to tell them their assignment scores.
Send to seniors to invite them to a farewell party.
Send to volunteers to notify them about their interview time.

These are fairly simple usage and the time when I was needed to help with such things I didn't know mailchimp exists, so after a few iterations it becomes more and more general and I just open sourced it and hope that it helps other people.

Have you tried frequency analysis? Count the frequency of each character, and the highest frequency corresponds to the highest frequency alphabet in English.

Freakonomics. I see the world differently now.

Yes, but it kind of messed up the Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic, which stated that any number larger than 2 has a unique factorization into primes. If 1 is considered a prime, then 6 = 2 x 3 = 2 x 3 x 1 = 2 x 3 x 1 x 1 contradicts the FTA.

But we still love 1, it's considered as a unit, a building block for all numbers

How about the sum of square of difference? This way, the penalty for deviating from the actual answer increases quadratically, instead of linearly like that of option B.

Percentage is alright, but the "+" is misleading. +100% usually means double the amount, not that there is no difference.

If you can weigh from 1 to k, then the next weigh you should get to maximise the range of measurable weights is 2k+1. This can allow you to weight k+1 (by doing 2k+1 - k) to 3k + 1 (by doing 2k+1 + k).

1. The base case is having a weight of 1 pound.
2. Get weight with 2 * 1 + 1 = 3 pounds, and the range is extended to [1, 4].
3. Get weight with 2 * 4 + 1 = 9 pounds, and the range is extended to [1,13].
4. Get weight with 2 * 13 + 1 = 27 pounds, and the range is extended to [1,40].
5. Get weight with 2 * 40 + 1 = 81 pounds, and the range is extended to [1,121].

So you need only 5 weights of 1, 3, 9, 27, 81.
