Is it possible to check whats in a byte array before extracting its data?

Im setting up a server socket in java thats going to listen for files and write them after its received its data. I also want it to listen for some strings but the socket will crash because its trying to unpack a file stream.

Want to set up a condition where it skips that part of code if the byte array contains string, hence the question.

I don't understand this mindset. Yes, JS has problems, bad ones: Static type verification of a JS program is undecidable, it only supports 64-bit floats as a numeric type, and so on.

But we're stuck with it as a platform. Millions or billions of people use it - you and I are using it to discuss that fact right now. So a lot of engineering effort and focus has gone to making this bizarre runtime environment we've been given better for developers, going as far as transpiling from better languages.

No one bats eye when they hear someone has a job working with a codebase fraught with architectural issues or using old shitty technologies. Many companies move slowly, so developers have come to expect it, especially in industries such as finance. Anyone who says they work on code without problems is either lying, can't see them, or doesn't have a large enough codebase.

So why is web development uniquely shat on as a kneejerk reaction by half of the population here?

you guys are a fucking virus. You touch on everything but the goddamn topic.

Javascript is bad because all it does is run css from a level higher than css which then calls html which then calls another triple layered taco bell chicken soft taco. It's too many calls at any one time with no promise of templated functions. That's why it's bad. It teaches you to arrange information upwards rather than laterally. It also gives the wrong people the "right" to go around spouting bullshit about what constitutes good coding practice on the basis that anyone's uncle could hire them to work the site and give them more money just because it reaches 1000000 people and their facebook friends and their facebook friends' friends and so on. It's not legitimate practice. It's not programming. If programmers got paid per service cycle you wouldn't have any ground to stand on and you'd be just a virus that no one wants to be around. But you got money. You can buy the drinks and they'll just forget what you said in the morning anyhow.

>>57362497

Modern C++ isn't that terrible to use. It's just a matter of getting on a new project, and not maintaining a 20 year old codebase.

>>57362493
make sure to add the check for typeof after the initial check for the files so that you don't add an extra call to every pass. Also, don't forget to change the kind of stream that you're using.

It is well-known that web has a lot of warts and ugly parts. But how can you call it a badly designed technology if it:
- Support user interaction and complex UIs;
- Has means for safe multithreading and async operations;
- Allows monkeys to produce non-crashing code by mindlessly smashing keyboards.

>>57362497

Despite the ugliness, I would be willing to be a maintainer for the Windows codebase, if I could ever get the position.

It produces undesired results based on bad formulation of code. There is no taxonomy. It simply does what it thinks you wanted and if it can do the gist of it on bad information, it can tack on service reprievals/reprisals just based on the fact that it is doing it for your own good as you clearly have no clue what you're fucking doing.

Safe multithreading doesn't even apply to online because everything is out in the open anyway. You can't access the drive from js. There's nothing unsafe about it. encrypted information is sent immediately to a separate server. Async operations function on a single address header for a single purpose buffer.

What's the common pitfalls to using std::threads and copy constructors together in C++? Because everything is good until the method that I'm threading (which takes in a deep copy of a class) tries to call another method, at which point it promptly crashes.

Basically want to write a series of images but since the write time for the images is so long, I wanted to have threads do the writing separate from the main AND have to deep copy the class that holds the image memory so i can delete the image memory later.

The main thread constantly writes over a single image, then i want to pass a copy of the image (once I've finished writing that image) to a thread that then writes in to disk, if that makes sense.
So the main thread creates a write thread whenever there is a image to write atm, I wanted to get the basic concept done before looking at further control/thread pooling, etc.

>>57363438
Okay... what parser generator does everyone else use/prefer?

In all seriousness though, you're referring to Parsec, right? How do you like it? Doesn't it have pretty harsh consequences with regards to performance?

>>57363474
In mostly non jargon terms, a parser takes a language represented by some formal specification and processes strings written in it. It usually computes a parse tree, which represents the syntax of a language as a tree.

For example, the math expression (7+3)*(5-2) would have a parse tree looking like this image. Notice that you can calculate the result for each node by doing the operator on its left and right children. (e.g. the + node becomes 7+3=10, the - node becomes 5-2=3, the * node becomes 10*3=30, so the result of the whole expression is 30, which is correct)

>>57363544
I'm talking in general.

>>57363497
More readable than the atrocity the syntax highlighter does to it.

Do I just have a shitty job or is it generally true elsewhere that two-third of programmers are retarded? Half my job is cleaning up after idiots. I don't just mean legacy code. I mean really flat out terrible ideas that were always bad; a lot of which are happening on new projects so the legacy code excuse doesn't apply.

One of my coworkers has been here for 5 years and last week needed help setting up Eclipse. They also didn't know what Jenkins was and it turns out that they've been pushing local builds to production (big no-no).

We also have a big problem with people reinventing the wheel. Not just once, but many times. Not only does some retard feel compelled to create their own database abstraction layer or their own XML parser, but because the company is composed of many teams, often each team will have their own completely different implementation of such crap.

/dpt/ I have a question.
I'm on this balls hard class of basic data structures... and it's hard 80% because the rubrics are so weird, you get 20% deductions for code over 80 lines, 10% for having any single line indented incorrectly, or 10% for having carriage returns, missing a single line of comment can cost 15% of the grade, etc. etc.

But most of it is the material is pretty messed up, I take at least 10~14 hours trying to figure out what the assignment wants me to do with all the restrictions, trying to figure out what each function the teacher gives us does etc. etc.

Anyway, how worth is this class anyway?
Will people in programming jobs expect me to do a double, circled linked list off the back of my head, weird as fuck hashtables and all these meticulous things I've mentioned?

I hear people work in the industry, they barely remember what is a linked list or how to implement one, besides going "oh I did that once in college, long time ago", and it kinda hits me if this class is worth all this hassle

tl;dr is basic data structures worth going through a ton of bullshit, and is it really worth the stress or am I barely going to use the stuff I learned?
It just feels not worth it, if you know what I mean.

>>57364364
Depends what kind of job you're going for

>>57364364
You'll never have to implement your own linked list to get something done. But it's a bad sign if, given a specification, you can't do it right away.

>>57364364
Just knowing why you'd use each one is fine. You're not going to make a better implementation than the one provided by your standard library.

For instance consider trying to decide whether to use an ArrayList or a LinkedList. If you're doing a lot of random reads, an ArrayList is appropriate because you can get to any position in the list equally fast. On the other hand, inserting into the middle of an ArrayLIst is relatively slow, because a bunch of data has to be shifted over to make room.

Any anon know lisp & want to help a guy out? I feel like I'm so close to finishing this but I'm too tired to type it out for deaf ears.

i'm trying to replace the last word of a string in bash but i cant wrap my head arond all the $.//#*-4c bullshit. But it should be easy for anyone who's familiar with it.

string="please help me remove the last word"
string=$(string dark magic)
(newstring becomes "please help me remove the last")

I'm usually a python guy, and doing this in that language is a walk in the park. But i'm editing a bash script right now and i'm close to killing myself.

Could someone please help me out?

>>57364759
A word here is a space separated string of non-space characters. And the sequence contains no less than 2 words.

#!/bin/sh
read words
words="${words% *}"
words="$words wallaby"
echo "$words"

I'm learning C as my first language and my friend wants me to learn Fortran to do some work with him. Being not entirely new to programming, in how much time could I reasonably learn it?

At least if none of your code makes it to production there's no risk you'll ever be the cause of a security issue or something like that.

How would I write this to record a post order traversal in the array instead of in order traversal?

int *flatten(node *n, int *A)
{
  if (n) {
    A = flatten(n->left, A);
    *A++ = n->data;
    return flatten(n->right, A);
  } else
    return A;
}

>>57365254
There is the notion of 'modern fortran'. If your friend's project involves some other kind, the project should be dropped and you should never approach it in any way.
Fortran isn't the best language to learn from the position of computer science---it's not neat and well-designed, because it has a large baggage of anachronistic strange rules. But if you restrict your programming to the numerical domain, then it's quite nice (mostly because array operations) and the new facilities are useful fixes to old problems.
The C programming language, on the other hand, was created consistently around some abstract data model, which describes the machine-level closely and is common to many exist(ed/ing) computers, not just as a notational convenience of an engineer who indulges in occasional programming. This made it a language of choice for programming operating systems. So, if you have any purpose of doing general programming using POSIX inteface, you should know C well. Well, C has a lot more libraries than Fortran, in general.
Because C is close to machine-level, there are good compilers which allow you to write fast numerical programs. So, C is another top language in the numerical domain. (Which means you can do fine without Fortran there.)
Also, C/Fortran interoperability is well-described, so you can help with the project using C.

>>57365358
We've also done vaporware. I feel a little sorry that now play store has one more app which is useless for anyone. I am not sure even clients that ordered the app use it. They hope it their customers will download it someday.

>>57365170
If you have prior experience it really shouldn't take too long. If you don't, please keep in mind that it's a data table and that you're managing everything from. If you can do that, pointers will make sense. Functions over the data table will make sense.

The deal with the whole male female thing is that if you ask questions on google with a "phallic sense" tied to them, or like something not a chad you'll get taken to stack exchange where you'll find all kinds of gifs linking to bad services and servers and it'll make the whole experience kind of shitty if you're not one to mince words over nothing. As most programmers aren't. I would recommend sticking to the University PDFs, most prominently the Oxford one. At least for C.

Otherwise you might end up getting sold on shitty coding practices that introduce noise patterns rather than simple ad placements and that's where it gets real shitty. Like poo in the loo shitty. Don't google that either.

Wew, did all of codecademy's online course for python. Where can I go to keep learning more about the language?

>>57365401
Of course, I can just change that (my) code to satisfy your specification, but let me lay down some properties of it and let you do the rest (or you wouldn't learn anything).

// ...
// A points to some free element in an array
B = flatten(n, A);
// A, A+1, ..., B-1 points to elements from the tree
// B points to the next free element
// ...
B = flatten(NULL, A);
// A == B; the base case does nothing

Problem: build another flatten_ltr with those properties but it works in post-order.

>>57365401
Just switch the order that the child nodes are accessed...

that's not post order, that's just reverse in order.

Post order is left, right, center

Trying to study for an intro-to-CS class's midterm.

Let's say I have a function that correctly identifies the subset Sum (IE, if a set contains {1, 2, 3}, it returns true if you want to make 6)

bool subsetSum(Set<int>& inputSet, int value)
{

    /**** BASE CASES *******/
    if(value == 0) return true; //If you found a way to get to 0, congrats! You found a solution!
    if(inputSet.isEmpty()) return false; //If you exhausted all possiblities, You didn't really find a solution

    /**** RECURSIVE CASE ******/
    for(int currNum : inputSet)
    {
        Set<int> inputSet_COPY = inputSet - currNum;
        return (subsetSum(inputSet_COPY, value)  //Assuming you don't need the current number in the set to make the sum
                || subsetSum(inputSet_COPY, value - currNum)); //Assuming you do... If either one returns true, then congrats! You found a solution
    }
    return false;
}

How would I make it such that the function keeps track of how many solutions there are?

>>57365549
You're not dumb---you're lazy. That's why you haven't acquired any skill you're supposed to have in solving those problems.

int *flatten_lrt(struct node *n, int *A)
{
  if (!n) return A;
  A = flatten_lrt(n->left, A); // left subtree is written
  // A points to the next free place
  // write the right subtree starting with current value of A
  A = flatten_lrt(n->right, A);
  // A points to the next free place
  *A = n->data; // put datum there
  return A+1; // return the next free place
}

>>57365345
excellent argument NEET faggot

>>57365564
No way with your algorithm. Imagine that you set contains 0. It returns without checking for additional solutions.
And it looks pretty horrible.

I can't believe I couldn't figure this out

I'm working a project using erlang & javascript. The project is organized like this:

./
  -> src
    -> app.erl
    -> websocket_handler.erl
    ...
  -> priv
    -> static
      -> index.html
      -> main.js
      ...
I'm working on the files in the src directory and the static directoy at the same time, in the same vim instance. I need to run :make each time I save a file, even if the file is in the static directory. I tried setting up an autocmd but it doesn't work because I have autochdir enabled, it prevents vim from finding the right makefile.
How can I manage to run :make each time I save my files while keeping autochdir enabled?

>>57365627
Wait... what do you mean "returns without checking for additional solutions"

If the set contains zero, the only way it will return true is if the value also contains zero. Otherwise, you can't form anything with zero.

Also, what's wrong with overcommenting?

>>57365729
If the set contains 0, then there are two solutions: {} and {0}, satisfying the constraint that the sum of a subset is 0. Also, there can be negative elements. Just iterate through all subsets properly.

>>57365682

I am doing pretty much the same thing and.. I just have a separate command window open to run make in.

I'm too retarded for my assignments. Is there a place I can go and get help?

This seems about as relevant a place as AGDG to ask this question. So what is the best engine to remake SS13 with? SS13 is the cult classic that's been alive for the past 13 years which uses Byond, a closed source 90s MUD engine that's been on life support for ages with limited functionality. Every SS13 dev wants to be rid of it but none can agree how, making a new engine, finding an engine, slapping libraries together.

All in all we want an engine that has at least
>2D support
>networking and multiplayer functionality for 20-100+ players (each hosted on a headless server)
>open source
>relatively fast language
>compiles and runs on Linux+Windows
>full control over the client code as well
>multithreading is a plus

Any suggestions or experience?

A friendly anon yesterday told me it's possible to have this be true:

 
int hex2dec(const char *hex) {
int n = strlen (hex);

Will this get me the length of the pointer or the length of the char array? I asked someone and they said "sizeOf" in this case would get the size of pointer, not the array, so I was wondering if strlen would do the same thing.

I'll just tell them to install Python 3 in advance, let them figure it out on their own. Seriously, installing Ubuntu might actually be the better choice for a noob; less troubleshooting and at least you get a working environment unlike fucking Windows.

>Complexity. In OpenGL getting something on the screen is by far easier. Even without classic fixed function, just rendering full-screen effects or image-processing takes only few lines of code. Vulkan’s level of verbosity to get to the first pixel on the screen is far higher. As hinted in the previous blog posts on resource bindings or memory management, these additional complexities will require more code to be written. Especially for people new to graphics, it may be better to use OpenGL or rendering middleware that hides this complexity and focus on the actual task.
https://developer.nvidia.com/transitioning-opengl-vulkan

I have no experience in graphics programming, according to nvidia then I might be better off starting with OpenGL.

>>57367089
And taking the O(n) memory cost is the better choice most of the time.
You should at least be able to at least mention the obvious space-time tradeoff.

Do note that I said "bitmap", but what I meant is "hash table", the bitmap is every so slightly more efficient but only works if your input is bounded.

>>57367095
OpenGL will teach you the wrong habits. :^)

>>57367105
The real answer is to use a fucking Set in the first place.

>>57367121
A set is usually internally a hash table, so your answer is roughly equivalent.
Using a set in the first place is not always possible, so that's not a good answer. If the input is an array, that's probably for a reason.

>>57367121
So an hash table then?

>>57367121
>a fucking Set
The concept of a set has no order.

>>57367140
Non sequitur, order is not required anywhere.

>>57367128
>A set is usually internally a hash table
That's an irrelevant implementation detail. You can implement it as some tree.

>that's probably for a reason.
A bad one. If you care about duplicates, using arrays is dumb.

>>57367140
But it has a concept of element equality, which is all it needs.

>>57367153
>That's an irrelevant implementation detail. You can implement it as some tree.
Or you could implement it as a sorted array, if we want to go full circle.
And that's exactly why it's not a satisfactory answer.

The point of the question is pretty much asking you how to convert an array into a set. If your answer is "I'll use a Set!", why thank you, but that's not helpful.

>A bad one. If you care about duplicates, using arrays is dumb.
You may only care about duplicates at a certain point, before which you need the array for performance reasons.
You're only seeing part of the problem, don't assume the array is stupid if you don't know why it's there in the first place, that's incredibly short sighted.

>>57366834
>literally takes like 15 minutes
This is 100% a "problem exists between the chair and keyboard" scenario. I've installed Python on an entire office of computers with 5400rpm drives at this point and I've never had a single installation for ANYTHING take 15 minutes just to fail.

>>57367383
My point is that setting up Ubuntu is about as complicated as installing Python on Windows (i.e. not at all), except with Ubuntu you get a working Python installation, better OS and no obscure errors if your OS isn't literally a Pajeet-tier basic installation with all the botnet shit running in the background. Obscure errors which you fix by googlaying the problem, reading shitty forums and shill sites, downloading 10 different programs or drivers that *might* fix the problem but usually don't, rebooting 20 times in between and end up with 2 GB or non-removable bloat on your system.

One .exe file. At most, 60-90 seconds of installation. You're just retarded.

There is no way you can get a .dll error unless you're completely and purposefully fucking up the system. You are flat-out making shit up to pretend that you're not retarded. This is wholly equivalent to some gaymer posting about how he bought a workstation graphics card, was utterly shocked that he wasn't able to run Crysis, and blamed the company who made the card for his fuckup.

    char data[0xE];
    data[0] = 79;
    data[1] = data[0] + 1;
    data[2] = data[1] / 2.5;
    data[3] = 0x69;
    data[4] = 0x50 * 1.4375;
    data[5] = data[2] + 0x0;
    data[6] = 0x539 - 0x4D8;
    data[7] = 0x40 / (0x1 * 0x2);
    data[8] = 1024 / 10;
    data[9] = data[300 % 98];
    data[0xA] = data[0x8] + 1;
    data[0xB] = data[0xA] + 0x0;
    data[0xC] = 100 % 89 * 10 + 1;
    data[0xD] = 3 * 33 + 4 * 4 + 1;

    for (int i = 0; i < 0xE; i++)
        printf("%c", data[i]);

    return 0;
}

I didn't even need to bother unobfuscating the values in the array, because the actual logic of the program isn't obfuscated.
I already know what the program is doing and so I can trivially deduce that those are the letters, now matter how complicated the formula for each letter is.

Some effort, but in the wrong place.

Good job, guess what I tried? It literally comes with tons of M$hit bloat like VS redistributable whatever the fuck and dll files out the ass, and the installation of that (supposed to happen automatically) failed despite disabled firewall. This was on Windows 7. "Purposefully fucking up the system" -- I applied a patch linked in the installgentoo wiki (I think) that disables the telemetry, that's it. Even all of my *ahem* games *cough* work with no issues. If something as simple as a fucking Python interpreter requires dlls that might have been removed by something that disables the sending of unwanted data then that just further proves that Windows is absolute gobshite and further reinforces my conviction that I will never EVER use this piece of shit OS ever again.

And you have the gaul to talk about being concerned about telemetry and bloat?

Listen here dipshit.
I used ONE batch file that disables telemetry, which has been used by other people with no issues, and was linked in a wiki that is directly associated with /g/ and as such can be assumed to be safe.
Then I tried to install Python by downloading the installer from python.org, which failed because the runtime couldn't install itself because Windows a shit. That led to a wild goose chase trying to fix the error. The lack of good documentation for the OS (because hurr just enable automatic updates and let M$ fix it, or call the support center, or just wipe and reinstall xD) forces you to sift through dozens of sites, the validity of which can not be determined.
Yes, installing Python is easy, under ideal circumstances. So is installing Ubuntu and getting a working Python installation with it. Under less-than-ideal circumstances, it's a fucking mess and you'd be better off just installing a noob-friendly GNU/Linux distro.

That's not the point; you can use Mercurial with GitHub, private repos, or pretty much anything else.

Recommending BitBucket as an alternative to Git is a non-sequitor at best, and likely a brief spout of ignorance.

>>57367930
What's wrong with hg? It is so much simpler. Everything is a node.

>>57368086
And in Git everything is an object.

Is it even worth learning Scala if I know a little bit of Java? I want to write a web service like every other faggot but not have it use up too much memory per user. I thought I might start with Golang (and still might just go with it) but I've become interested in Scala because it has a REPL and because it at least pretends to be functional while giving me the freedom to choose how I want to do shit.

>>57367897
>I'm sorry, i don't understand what this means.
Okay, this isn't technically correct, but it may explain the difference between fetch and pull:

A pull is basically a fetch+merge

Scale and Java use the same fucking runtime...

anyone here is zsh instead of bash?
i just switched to zsh and its pretty comfy, can't believe i been using bash all this time just because it comes bundled with everything.

im free now.

>>57368340
I tried zsh but didn't see the point.
Bash works fine for me, if I have to do something complicated I'll use an actual programming language.

>>57368368
zsh is newer, has more features and isn't tied down to supported legacy systems like Bash.

>>57368387
So is it just a new shiny hipster toy?

>has more features
Which one should I care about?

There's zero information in your post, it's pure marketing.

>There is not a single malloc() call in all the library. [...] On big desktop and server OS, this feature still offers an interesting characteristic: immunity to memory leaks and memory-based DoS attacks. Outsiders cannot make BearSSL allocate megabytes of RAM since BearSSL does not actually know how to allocate RAM at all.

Are you the kind of person that can not ever change their opinion, nor admit when they're wrong?

You know, stupid people are often proud of being stubborn. You don't want to grow up like that.

Anyone here learning web assembly in hopes to destroy all these meme web frameworks and finally standardize web development?

>>57368513
That's the problem with a GC, it's a trap that looks like a good idea at first glance.

A GC is actually good for a small project, because you might save some time if you're not used to controlled memory management.

But it's when your project grows that you run into trouble. You have to start tweaking the JVM options, be careful not to allocate too many small objects or not allocate at all to avoid random latency spikes, the GC becomes unpredictable and something to fight against pretty quickly.
At some point it's much easier to just match your "new" with a "delete", especially when the compiler can do it for you automatically 90% of the time.

>>57368538
Yes, that's exactly the danger.
You might actually start thinking that you're always right, and not realize the disconnect with reality.

When it becomes too extreme, it's called a delusion.

>>57368580
Yeah, I hear ya.
There are techniques I can use to avoid the GC fucking with my shit, but still this got me thinking. Maybe I should go back to C++. Even if I can call the GC manually and stop it from doing shit I can always do memory management lazily in C++ too, but at least it's deterministic so I can adjust it to my needs.

On the other hand it seems to me that Dlang allows a lot of stuff regarding the GC and I could try writing more GC friendly code.

Oh, yes, lot of small objects... the best especially when something produces lot of small shit in a loop and it isn't obvious at first glance.


>>57368547
I looked at nim a while ago and I somewhat liked it, but it still felt a bit off to me.
Regarding Dlang I actually want to replace C++ with it.

Having to manually run make each time is quite inefficient. There should be a way to automate that.

FUCK COLLISION DETECTION
just wanted to add that to the thread

>>57369211
>There should be a way to automate that.
Make one, that would be an actually useful project.

You pretty much just need to listen for inotify and trigger make when something changes.

>>57369213
have you considered Information Systems as an alternative? :^)

>>57369230
Nah, I think I'll listen for vim's BufWrite events, deduce the place I need to move to, go there, run make and then go back to where I was.

Apparently a lot of people struggle with it.
But for a simple OS you just need to download the bible (3400 pages) and check out the osdev.org wiki.

Large codebases is a skill that you acquire. Try just compiling Libre Office.

That's a good start.

I though writing code is what code monkeys did, i want to solve problems.

What happens if i initialize a git repo inside a git repo?

>>57369436
Writing boilerplate is what code monkeys do.
Developpers automate the problem solving so they don't have to do it themselves.

>>57369439
you can't. git checks for existing repos.

That was retarded.

>>57366663
As hex is probably not a valid string (that requires NO zero bytes ('\x00' or '\0'), then that's not possible. You can't know for sure when it ends.

If your hex string is actually just a character representation of the bytes, ie "A7", then you need to multiply the length by 2 so you get bytes.

>>57369436
You're partially correct.

A code monkey is simply someone who only writes code. They made implement a particular algorithm here and there, and create well-made functions to do particular tasks, but at the end of the day, all they do is program.

A programmer is someone who architects significant components, if not the entirety of, programs. They understand how it interacts with the business-case, and can communicate to clients, team members, and management effectively.

>>57369439
Is that your problem?
https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Tools-Submodules

>>57367869
Not him, but here's a tip:
You have to obfuscate the logic and not the syntax.

Rather than have a char array and add in some characters to print out to a stream, how about creating a recursive function that generates the characters based on some random seed?

You could seed, for example 0x300, find the first n numbers rand gives out, and see if you can find a formula to transform those values to a string array. If not, try 0x301, 0x302....

Good programmers will automate this task using some sort of library to find patterns.

Has most programming been reduced to
importing library_A, library_B, library_C
plus some glue to bind it all together?

>>57369454
Going through shit with fixed time-step?
Not adjusting shit when a collision is detected?

>>57369541
>Good programmers will automate this task using some sort of library to find patterns.
Yeah, no. Good programmers will think of an algorithm that naturally has the correct order, instead of bruteforcing.
If you want to write "opisafaggot", bruteforce is one in 26^10=141167095653376 chance of success.

>>57369213
Why are you not using bullet?

>>57369565
First: 'op', 'is', 'a', 'fa', 'gg', 'ot' can all be separate calls. The chances of finding those is simply 5*2^2 + 1*2^1 = one in 22.

Second: you can think of an algorithm that naturally works, but even then you'll only get an approximation when it's longer than just "opisafaggot". Every single programmer that doesn't just spend all their time on this task use some automation.
