@Absinthe #toyprogrammingchallenge #python #lisp #c #c++ #cpp #coding #programming Ready for the next challenge? "5 Guys and a Bunch of Coconuts"Here is a link to the text description of the problem. https://git.qoto.org/Absinthe/coconuts/blob/master/coconuts.txtThat link is to the repo, and my solution is in it as well.

@g there is a name for that. It is called "l'esprit d'escalier"Think of it as a self protecting measure. Sometimes those witty comebacks are followed up with less entertaining punches in the face, or whooping of the ass. :)

@Ferretsyndicate those aren't chocolate bars :) They are candy bars that mildly include chocolate. Hershey bar, is a chocolate bar. But I do enjoy Lindt Chili excellence

@MereLinuxMortal the best way to learn python is "dive into python" you can read it online or buy a paper book. The 3 version is available as well. However, please check our #royprogrammingchallenge I encourage you to try them and post your solutions and ask for some suggestions.

@MereLinuxMortal you're welcome. I am trying hard to encourage programming, specifically with my #toyprogrammingchallenge If you click on that hashtag you should see what we've had so far. Give them a shot. And if you want to try one and need help, I am sure you would get lots of feedback on that as well.

@Ghosty As in which ones are good? Or why they are the devil and no one should ever use them? Or the conspiracy to keep programmers locked into a technology they don't fully understand by hiding the details of the implementation with whiz-bang wizards and such?

@Ghosty Now there's an economics question if I ever heard one. Or perhaps a game of "Would you rather?"Suppose you have a lucrative job, programming in-house code in a proprietary language using all proprietary tools and a good paycheck. Or you are working for free using all free/libre tools but you have to live on ramen and ketchup packets and sleep on your Auntie Fanny's couch? :)

@Ghosty The morality of software is to the final product. When you touch a piece of software it should become better than it was.I once believed that the morality of software involved writing yourself out of a job. I did that on one of my first jobs. We had a client that would call up for ad-hock queries for her database to do mailings for her PAC. By the time I left that job, I had written her a report generator such that she could use mostly natural language to program her mailing lists. :)

@MereLinuxMortal Nah, none of that is all that bad. Start small, and build one on another. That's why the first program is always a "Hello, world!" or something of that nature. When computer software became a thing there were no computer teachers, only math teachers... so that is where the language comes from. Just write something, when you do it for fun, you will own it just like reading.

@Ghosty @chozron Well, most proprietary ones are tied to one toolchain so there is little configuration. But let's say you want to use Eclipse. You can use it with any toolchain you can imagine, but you have to set it up to best handle what you want. But you could also just use Emacs or Vim and add some plugins to handle language server stuff, or compilation or debugging. So, who cares about out of the box usability, I would prefer future flexibility. :)

@Ghosty @chozron if you are doing Java it works OtB pretty well. It also handles gcc pretty well. When you install it there are several choices that set you up for a particular environment. such as CDT for C/C++.

@yisraeldov Fellow here likes it. Likes the plugins and such. I thought it was kind of neat the way it handled command history. I just stick with bash myself
