is fizzbuzz real anyway? do they really ask you to do it?

OP here

you are right I forgot about

>Once an else if succeeds, none of the remaining else if's or else's will be tested.

how is this?

 if(index%3 == 0 && index%5 == 0) printf("\nFizzBuzz");
     else if(index%3==0) printf("\nFizz");
     else if(index%5==0) printf("\nBuzz");
        else printf("\n%d", index);

I have not had fizzbuzz in any of my application tests

>>58332438
it's real for shit tier cs jobs. I mean the quality of the work, not the pay. good cs jobs ask pretty interesting questions!

>>58332459
You don't need to give FizzBuzz its own line. That's a bad flag. At its roughest, it should be:

>Check if it's not a multiple. Print number if true.
>Print Fizz if applicable.
>Print Buzz if applicable.
>Print line break.

sub fizzbuzz ($n) {
    given $n %% 3, $n %% 5 { 
        when ~(True, True ) { "fizzbuzz" }
        when ~(True, False) { "fizz" }
        when ~(False, True) { "buzz" }
        $n  
    }   
}

and some people find Perl6 hard.

Dumb meme. For perspective, I was asked to write a method to check if a binary tree is balanced for a sophomore summer CS internship. (among other coding questions)

 

for(int i = 0; i <= 30; i++) {
    if(i % 5 && i % 3 == 0)
         cout << "Fizzbuzz";
    else if(i % 3 == 0)
         cout << "Fizz";
    else if(i % 5 == 0)
         cout << "Buzz";
    else
         cout i;
}

>>58332685

if (i % 5 && i % 3 == 0)

anon
you realize you wrote

if (i % 5 != 0 && i % 3 == 0)

you're part of the 99.5%

for ( n = 0; n < 100; n++){
if ( n % 3 == 0 ){
cout << "Fizz";
} else if ( n % 5 == 0 ) {
cout << "Buzz";
else if(n%3 == 0 && n%5 ==0) {
cout << "Fizz" << " "<< "Buzz";
}else{
cout << n;
}

Keep studying and don't be a pretentious asshole.

>>58332733
whoops :^)

>>58332218
This isn't what they do anymore. This is what they do now:

Step 1:
- Phone screen. Some contractor phones you and is typically as rude as possible/jackassery demanding you program over the fucking phone and asks you some questions. "What is the best way to sort X?" WRONG it's only X way".

Step 2:
- 'Founder' screen. If a startup some cofounder will phone you and ask you weird questions. 'What is a time you felt you were treated unfairly?". They will then shill all their bullshit culture and whatever in hopes of you joining the cult.

Step3:
You can invited for a week long interview (yes, a week usually longer). Basically you will have a huge series of 45min whiteboard interviews with various departments, all of them will by ivy league engineers trying to gotcha with stupid shit. All they really care at this part is you can explain your reasoning while you whiteboard program. They will continually ask you to optimize whatever you've done too. "balance this tree. How could you do it faster? Do it faster again blah blah".

Step4:
Monkey dancing continues with you typically doing a large work sample test that won't be like anything you will actually work on or applied for. Half way through you'll feel like you're working for free at this point and getting scammed.

Finally you get to negotiations where salary is discussed. This is where you discover after all that you'll only be offered a laughable salary. This is the current state of the art tech interview system unless you handpick a few startups that don't do this bullshit.

printf( (!(i&3) && !(i&5))?"FizzBuzz\n":!(i&3)?"Fizz\n":!(i&5)?"Buzz\n":"%d\n", i );

>>58332622
That's a step in the wrong direction.

Having a method print its result to stdout is already freshman tier bullshit. Now you're further writing yourself into that corner.

>>58332767
Ooops, used & instead of %. Oh well.

>>58332755
>mfw this is true if you interview
>mfw my good tier degree and FOSS contribs mean there are literally dozens of recruiters throwing salary quotes at me
The God tier way to get a job is to get recommendations from insider friends anyhow.

for(var i = 0; i <= 15; i++){
     if(i == 3 || i == 6 || i == 9 || i == 12)
          console.log("Fizz")
     else if(i == 5 || i == 10)
          console.log("Buzz")
     else if(i == 15)
          console.log("Fizzbuzz")
}

>>58332257
>Me: Ok, again to be honest, my JS knowledge is more regarding UI/UX based tasks. And I don't really understand the point of the question. Like, what's the use case? When would this come up in the role?

What the interviewer should have said was "We have a blog and we want to show ads on every 3rd post and every fifth one should be a sponsored story. Can you write "post, post, post with ad, post, sponsored story, ..."

Then she'd just say "oh,I see. I realize now that I'm a fraud. Sorry to waste your time." and maybe learn something instead of writing this blog post

OP here with another possible solution

if(index%3!=0 && index%5!=0) {printf("%d\n", index); continue;}
     if(index%3==0) printf("Fizz");
     if(index%5==0) printf("Buzz");

I'm so glad I made this thread. I learned a lot.

>>58332955

and please dont tell me using continue is bad programming practice

>>58332218
you know you can still be part of the 99.5% even if you can do fizzbuzz right?

>>58333001

yes I was already exposed read the thread

>>58332415
>>58332257
even if you couldn't program this is a simple exercise in logic, the pseudo-code


if n is y and y fizz buzz
else if n = x fizz
else if n y buzz
print n

surely would have been possible with her "expertise" right?

#include<stdio.h>
void main() {
    const char *vars[] = { "%d ","Fizz ","Buzz ","FizzBuzz " };
    for (int i = 1; i < 101; ++i)
        printf(vars[(i % 3 == 0) + (i % 5 == 0)*2], i);
}

It's not a joke. I interview for a reasonably well-known tech firm; we use it as a weed-out/warmup question. It doesn't say if we *should* hire you, just if we *shouldn't*.

There's a significant number of applicants who get really tripped up on this kind of thing. Seriously; it's amazing.

I now use: "Count down from 700 to 200 in decrements of 13."

>>58332955
>>58332955

I'm actually retarded. It can be done with only this

if(index%3==0) printf("Fizz");
     if(index%5==0) printf("Buzz");
     if(index%3!=0 && index%5!=0) {printf("%d", index);}
     printf("\n");

this is it. this must be the ultimate solution.

>>58333189
Can be done with two ifs.

>>58333147
var i = 700
while i >= 200 {
print(i)
i -= 13
}

Can you mess that up?(I somehow messed that up)

>>58332755
Fuck this I'm doing sales

>>58333147
how is that even hard?

>>58333235
Depending on the language, syntax might be off, but the logic is sound.

>>58333280
It is not hard.

It is like this: You are hiring a new pianist for your orchestra. An interviewee walks in, so you take them to a room with a piano, a drum, and a guitar.

"Point out the piano".

If the interviewee cannot point out the piano, what is the point of continuing the interview? So it goes with FizzBuzz, or "Count down from 700 to 200 in decrements of 13."

 
(map (fn fizzbuzz [n]
            (cond
              (and
                (zero? (mod n 3))
                (zero? (mod n 5))) (println "FizzBuzz")
              (zero? (mod n 3)) (println "Fizz")
              (zero? (mod n 5)) (println "Buzz")
              :else
              (println n))) 
     (range 1 (inc 100)))

That whiner got whats comming, just because she wants to programm UI doesn't mean she should't be able to handle data...

>>58333311
Yes that is right. You should be figuring out if the person really knows anything and possibly some problem solving. Most crap can be looked up but it takes years to learn some stuff. Also their personality. They can learn some skills on the job but being an asshole isn't something that can be fixed.

I assume it's your first week coding, otherwise your wasting your time, go work at Burger King or something

>>58332767
cannot find symbol 'i'

>>58334370
its meant to be used in a for loop i'm guessing, cause i is always used in them

for (int i = 1; i <= 100; ++i) {
    printf(i%3 && i%5 ? "%d" : "", i);
    printf("%s", i%3 ? "" : "Fizz");
    printf("%s\n", i%5 ? "" : "Buzz");
}

>>58334079

The ||-statement in your solution is an if-statement: if the value is "falthy" (empty or undefined) it gets set to i.

You're adding syntactic sugar, but it's still 3 if-statements.


>>58333189

There are many options:

1. Make a variable that gets set to fizz or buzz, check if it's empty --> if it's empty, print the number (the solution of the guy above)

2. if(i%15 == 0 ) --> "fizzbuzz", if(i%3 == 0 ) --> "fizz", if(i%5 == 0 ) --> "buzz"

Note that this solution does not work if you take numbers like 3 and 9 (each number which can be divided by 9 is already a "fizzbuzz", not each number which can be divided by 27).


3. Another optimization would be to do only two mod-operations for each number, since mod is quite expensive:
boolean_fizz = (i%3 == 0)
boolean_buzz = (i%3 == 0)

Checking your booleans afterwards costs almost nothing.


4. Higher optimization is about using "wheels":
You take two array with 100 booleans. For the first array you make a simple for-loop in steps of three and set every third value to "true". For the second array you repeat it with a for-loop in steps of 5. Step three is a simple for-loop that checks both boolean arrays.
You can completely avoid the modulo-operation, which is quite expensive.


5. A pretty mean hack is the "fizzbuzz of the christ", here in python, but you can also do it in C, since C looks at strings as an array of chars:

for i in range(1,101):
    print("FizzBuzz"[i*i%3*4:8--i**4%5] or i)

Or with parentheses:

for i in range(1,101):
    print("FizzBuzz"[((i**2)%3*4):(8-((-(i**4)))%5)] or i)

This is actually a pretty mathematical solution and works only because 5 and 3 are prime numbers. It uses a certain property of prime numbers:

"n^(n-1) mod n = 0", but "(n+k)^(n-1) mod n = 1" for all 0 < k < n

Check this out:

for i in range(1,101):
    print((i**2)%3)

6. Using AI for "guessing" the numbers:
>http://joelgrus.com/2016/05/23/fizz-buzz-in-tensorflow/

for n in range(101):
if n%3==0:
print("fizz")
elif n%5==0:
print("butt")
else:
print(n)

Can I into code?

>>58332218

10 INT I
20 I = I + 1
30 IF I MOD 15
40 THEN PRINT "FIZZBUZZ"
50 GOTO 20
60 IF I  MOD 3

Without its own line, a 3rd party reading the source may not realise that a multiple of 3 and 5 will print both. Therefore it is better to give it its own line at the expense of the extra computation time and code lines unless you are writing cycle-critical code.

listen man, you are appending buzz. Thus, a mutiple of 3 and 5 would be fizz + buzz. If it's only multi of 5, than "" (empty str) + buzz, which is just buzz. Thus done in a line. Lot of the people in this thread are writing the code verbatim to solve the problem and not thinking about a good way to solve the problem.

For(int i=1, i<=100, i++){
if (i%3==0 || i%5==0) {

First comment:

milar to many “interviews” I’ve been on. The whole fixbuzz thing is a huge joke. I have never used the or heard of PHP’s modulous operator before or since I failed the fizzbuzz test.

function fizzBuzz2()
    for i=1,100 do
        number = true;
        str=" ";
        if (i % 3 == 0) then
            str = str.."fizz"
            number = false;
        end
        
        if (i % 5 == 0) then
            str = str .. "buzz";
            number = false;
        end
        
        if (number) then
            str = str .. i;
        end        
        
        print(str);
    end
end

>>58332218

C       FizzBuzz
        PROGRAM FZZBZZ
        INTEGER I
        DO 10, I=1,100
           CALL COUNT(I)
 10     CONTINUE
        END

        SUBROUTINE COUNT(I)
        INTEGER I
        IF (MOD(I, 3) .EQ. 0 .AND. MOD(I, 5) .EQ. 0) THEN
           WRITE (*,*) 'FizzBuzz'
        ELSE IF (MOD(I, 3) .EQ. 0) THEN
           WRITE (*,*) 'Fizz'
        ELSE IF (MOD(I, 5) .EQ. 0) THEN

        ELSE
           WRITE (*,*) I
        END IF
        END

>>58339896
But I prefer this:

for i=1, 100 do
        if(i % 15 == 0) then  print('fizzbuzz')
        elseif (i % 3 == 0) then  print ('fizz');
        elseif (i % 5 == 0) then print ('buzz');
        else 
            print(i);
        end
    end

>I have never used the or heard of PHP’s modulous operator before or since I failed the fizzbuzz test

Every once in a great while I read something that encapsulates everything that's going wrong in the world.

That sentence is a great example.

How can anyone even pretend to call themselves a programmer if they have never encountered the % operator, or not know what it is?

The thing that's so galling about this is that everyone knows what the underlying concept is. Everyone has, at some point in their childhood, sat in a math classroom and seen the concept of "remainder after division". What is 7 divided by 3? It's 2, with a remainder of 1. Everyone has seen this. Everyone. And people who call themselves "programmers" damn well better have enough curiosity to care about the concept of integer division and what the remainder might be after performing it. This is *division* we're talking about here. One of the four fundamental arithmetic operators. Something they teach to third graders. THIS IS LITERALLY CHILD'S PLAY. And yet, we have a whole army of people out there who like to think of themselves as "programmers" who can't even use a programming language to express a concept that we teach to third graders.

But what's much, much worse -- is that they don't even have the curiosity to find out. This guy learns that he is utterly deficient in one of the most fundamental math and programming concepts in existence: integer division and the remainder that it produces. So what does he do? Does he use this opportunity to realize his deficiency and learn something new? No -- of course not. Why would he fucking ever do that? Why would he not just blame everyone else for his deficiency?

I just link to my repo:

https://github.com/EnterpriseQualityCoding/FizzBuzzEnterpriseEdition

He was self-taught. Ever since the web came along, you don't really need a teacher anymore -- there's lots of web pages that will explain things to you like a teacher would.

The fact is that almost everything I do is self-taught. I got my degree in CS so long ago that the only thing about my degree that's still relevant is the basic science of it.

There's nothing in my education that prepared me for developing HTML GUI, designing applications based on the HTTP request/response model, or how to use Promises in JavaScript.

So I can see how the scatter-shot nature of learning by reading random web-pages can leave a person with a few deficiencies.

But for someone who calls himself a "programmer" to encounter the mod operator for the first time, and then immediately dismiss it as unimportant -- that shows a whole new level of arrogance and willful ignorance that's slowly and sadly becoming the new norm.

>>58340153

>>58340225
The best thing about Dunning-Kruger is that it was meant as joke by these guys.
But since it's so easy to 'identify' in other people, it took on a life of it's own and now we have half of the internet diagnosing this for the other half.

>>58340450

>>58340408
My experience in graduation (btw, I graduated in a program called "Mathematics with CS emphasis", in the Mathematics department, which is something I don't know exists in the US) Most of the things I did were highly abstract and the only languages I was taught were x86 and MIPS asm (for computer architecture and design), C form everything else and Pascal in the first semester.
I believe that a CS course should focus on concepts instead of technologies.
Isn't like that anymore?

>>58332218

I had to interview a fair number of people at my last job. It was *shocking* how bad most candidates were. I'm not interested in esoteric data structures or puzzle questions, I'm more the "can this person converse intelligently and explain their relevant past projects" kind of guy.

But I always give the basic questions, like "write a function that takes an argument 'n' and then prints out every number from one to n", or "write a function to reverse a string".

I actually interviewed one guy that had like 15 years of experience as a consultant, applying for a fairly difficult C++ position, who literally did not understand for loops. For example, given this:

for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)

He thought that every time 'i' was referenced in the body of the function, that it would get incremented. He literally could not write a function that printed numbers from 1 to n.

>>58332257

Personally, I wouldn't expect a front-end Javascript hipster schmuck to do Fizzbuzz. The one and only reason for this is modulo arithmetic. It's *extremely* common to cover modulo in CS101 (or high school CS, in my case), but if you somehow missed out on that, then the problem becomes much, much harder.

I care about domain experience. If I'm looking for someone with reasonable design skills who can string together the latest stack of absurd Javascipt libraries, then I'm honestly not likely to care *at all* whether or not they can even write a proper loop. I would care much, much more about things like their attention to detail, how they organize and document their code, etc.

>>58332218
I got 4 complicated code puzzles "what's the output of..."
And the last task was to implement a tree data structure, balance and populate it.

All in one hour. On paper.

Needless to say I failed because I picked the wrong strategy. Should have implemented the tree first.

>>58340618

>>58332755
>startups

Found your problem. Well, part of your problem.

Seriously, kids, don't play the startup lottery. You're much, much better off targeting one of the large, well-known tech companies (Google, Facebook, Apple, even Microsoft) to gold-plate your resume out of college.

If you can't hack that (no worries, I'm sure I couldn't), then look at established large companies, or small shops *that don't describe themselves as startups*. A lot of people seem to think that their dumb, small, privately owned company is a startup, and they use that buzz to try to convince /g/oobers to work for them.

Oh, and never EVER work for a startup unless there's a clear stock option plan. Not that they're worth much (most likely the company will fail before you can sell them), but *NO* stock option plan is a clear indicator that you're just being taken advantage of.

>>58340554

'CS' is still floundering, unable to decide if it's mathematics or a technical school.

In my program, there were two sides of things. There were data structure and theory classes, then there were the engineering-related classes. To graduate, you had to do a sort of thesis, where you formed groups, went out and found someone in the community that needed software written (in our case, a medical records program), then you had to write all the stages of documentation, create the software, and present it.

Anyway, IMO we should have math-heavy CS and skills-oriented technical schools. In many, many situations, some basic business knowledge would be more useful to someone doing programming than a lot of CS theory would be.

>balance

Balancing a binary tree is not easy feat. I only just got around to doing it a couple of years ago, and it probably took me two or three full days to fully work out what to do.

IIRC, it boils down to a pretty simple set of rules, but discovering those rules on your own isn't easy.

>>58340794

Right, which is why I wrote

You realize I'm saying TWO separate things, right? CS programs that are math heavy, and technical schools that are skills-focused.

i would hire the fuck out of anyone with the balls to pull this off in an interview

I have almost no knowledge of computer programming. I am full Pajeet. I tried to teach myself Python, and I gave up about halfway through the book I bought.

But for fuck's sake, even I can do this FizzBuzz shit. It might not be tidy, but it would get done and the output would all be correct.

So my question is: could I use my existing levels of programming skills to actually get a job? I assume the job will enhance my skills once I get it, so I only need a bottom-tier job. Is it possible?

>>58341524

>>58341457
I don't know if this would be a good idea.
Might be a red flag for 'clever code', which you absolutely do not want in a team effort.

>>58341261

Stop making it so complicated.

if (i % 3 == 0 && i % 5 == 0)
    print("Fizzbuzz");
else if (i % 3 == 0)
    print("Fizz");
else if (i % 5 == 0)
    print("Buzz");
else
    print(i);

People care about whether it's correct. IIRC, Fizzbuzz is typically "from 1 to 100", which would make your first line wrong.

>>58341457
I too would hire the fuck out of anyone who could do Search-and-Replace on a program written on a whiteboard

No. Not without something to show.

Nobody is going to hire you because you can write Fizzbuzz. You have the logic backwards, Fizzbuzz is used to weed out the incompetent, not to find the competent.

Range in python starts with the first number, then goes up to (but not including) the second number.

C++ and C# follow the same logic in iterators and other collections related stuff.

>>58341702
>That's fucking retarded.
It's consistent with programming languages and data structures in general. If you iterate over a collection, You go from 0 to size - 1, for instance (except for some idiotic ecosystems with 1-based indices). That's what Python is good at: being consistent.

Also, ranges in other languages work the same way by default, unless syntax allows explicit definition of inclusion/exclusion.

>>58341524
Start in technical support. Not the "have you tried turning it off an on again"-kind, but the "I'll show you how you fucked up at using our API"-kind. Work your way up from there. If your brain can take it, you'll eventually understand proper programming languages. If not, you'll have a cushy job appropriate to your skills.

Understanding FizzBuzz ist just about basic arithmetic skills anyway, as a previous anon has already pointed out.

>It's consistent with programming languages and data structures in general. If you iterate over a collection, You go from 0 to size - 1, for instance (except for some idiotic ecosystems with 1-based indices). That's what Python is good at: being consistent.

Yeah, but as in the example, it goes from 1 to 100 (or 101). The language shouldn't be stepping in and saying, "hey, you know what, most of the time you end up putting a -1 at the end of your range, so lemme just step in here and fuck your shit up for you".

In addition to the example by >>58341947 here's Ruby:

To be fair, Ruby also has the inclusive operator:

1..100

Also, the Golang slice syntax, working just like the Python sublist syntax, uses the first parameter as the start, and the second as excluded end.

threes = {*range(3,100,3)}
fives = {*range(5,100,5)}
rest = {*range(100)}

fizzbuzz = threes & fives
fizz = threes - fives - fizzbuzz
buzz = fives - threes - fizzbuzz

>'CS' is still floundering, unable to decide if it's mathematics or a technical school.

"CS" isn't floundering at all. The mathematics and theory guys picked the name "CS" a long time ago, and they totally own it.

Then, starting in the mid-90s, the internet exploded, and we suddenly had a huge demand for new skills like network technicians, web-page designers, and computer help-desk personnel.

At that point, two things conspired to muddle the perception of "CS" in the eyes of the general public:

(1) The education system was totally unprepared for the sudden creation of a new technical field overnight. Scrambling to accommodate it, they did the quickest thing they could think of -- they placed a new mandate on the CS department to expand into technical education. The new technical studies often carried the "CS" label, because it takes a lot of time to push the creation of a new department title through the molasses of the education bureaucracy.

(2) Very few people outside of CS have a clue what "CS" is. They assume that because it has the word "computer" in its name, then it must encompass anything dealing with computers. This resulted in a massive dumbing-down of what the terms "CS" and "programming" meant to the general public. For example, when most people's view of a "web programmer" is a person who crops photos and drag-and-drops them to create web pages -- then from that perspective, a person who knows how to type HTML code into Notepad starts to look like a programmer -- a hacker, even. The confused, befuddled masses have great strength in numbers, and if they want to start abusing terminology, they get the final say.

None of this caused CS to flounder. CS is just fine. The only thing that happened is that uninformed people started using the term "CS" in uninformed ways. That's their problem, not CS's.

It's not only if you can do it, it's also how you do it. Your solution should agree with the company's views on code style, approach, optimization VS readability etc...
Its an easy way for them to see how much you'll have to learn/change until they can let you write code for them.

You forgot the entire loop. Omitting brackets is bad form according to many.
Same for a variable 'index'. Printf is not necessary here, though may be okay if its consistent with their code. Starting each printf with "\n" is weird if you don't join Fizz+Buzz anywhere.

Yes you can code your way out of a wet paper bag, and no they probably won't send you out inmediately for this. But be prepared to explain/defend your choices which really shows wether or not you know what you're doing.

Last time I remember that someone got to do this the follow up question was:
"Why or why not would you remove the third check (%3,%5,%3&%5)?"
A clear but detailed answer about standards, (compiler) optimization and readability was expected, though "just be consistent with existing code" was valued almost as much.

>>58341947

How's that the case? $ just refers to the length. " .. $" just means "to the $th element".

Good for you. I would *never* want a range to be INCLUSIVE on one end and EXCLUSIVE on the other. And every time I've ever iterated over a range, I want it to go to exactly the number I indicate, not some different number implied by the language.

> To be fair, Ruby also has the inclusive operator:

*eyeroll* so the standard range operator behaves the expected way, and the goofy, extended triple-dot behaves in the other, bizarre way. That's even worse than Python.

>Also, the Golang slice syntax, working just like the Python sublist syntax, uses the first parameter as the start, and the second as excluded end.

So, basically, only dumb hipster languages. I have no idea why people would want differing behavior on either end of a range, without mathematical-type range indicators ("]" vs ")").

Okay, so I guess it's just a myth that everyone is discussing the ridiculous range in "CS" programs around the world. Good thing you were here to clear that up for us, anon.

>Then, starting in the mid-90s, the internet exploded, and we suddenly had a huge demand for new skills like network technicians, web-page designers, and computer help-desk personnel.

Oh bullshit. Network technicians have nothing to do with this and fucking help-desk? Are you kidding me?

>(1) The education system was totally unprepared for the sudden creation of a new technical field overnight.

No. The business side of software was already quite far along before the Internet came anywhere near the mainstream.

>None of this caused CS to flounder. CS is just fine.

No, it isn't. If that were the case, we wouldn't be regularly discussing whether or not CS is a subset of math, and what should or should not be in a CS program. There wasn't some mythical period where CS was a well-defined concept.

You're right. It's not intuitive to humans, but consistent with how zero-based indexing is always off by one. Once this is in someone's blood, it becomes natural.

>*eyeroll* so the standard range operator behaves the expected way, and the goofy, extended triple-dot behaves in the other, bizarre way. That's even worse than Python.

Can't argue with that. You got a point there.

>So, basically, only dumb hipster languages.

Python is place four on the TIOBE index, and one of the most taught programming languages. Too mainstream to be hipster.

Golang turns to be out one of the prime languages in a containerized environment, due to easy static linking with small resulting binaries, and an API that is akin to more high level languages despite its low level of operation. It's rise from 50 to 16 on the TIOBE index is not just a meme. Too mainstream to be hipster as well.

>I have no idea why people would want differing behavior on either end of a range, without mathematical-type range indicators ("]" vs ")").

I'd love to have mathematical syntax for ranges. Until one comes around that has them, and is mature and established enough to be actually used, I'll prefer to stick to weird ranges that are consistent almost across the board.

>>58340529
>people who accuse other people of having dunning-kruger are the only people that actually have it

No, it's just the opposite. That's the remarkable thing about Dunning-Kruger -- a person who is under its effect is utterly incapable of understanding it.

People under the Dunning-Kruger effect don't have the ability to perceive incompetence in either themselves or others, because they don't have the knowledge to determine what it even means to be "competent".

It's one of those weird "concept-blindness" phenomena -- kind of like a paranoid person who becomes utterly incapable of understanding the concept of paranoia, either in himself or in others. Dunning-Kruger is similar, except that it pertains to the inability to perceive incompetence.

CS professors know exactly what CS is. They're not "regularly discussing whether or not CS is a subset of math". That's what you and other uninformed people are doing.

FizzBuzz is about inclusivity, people! Not about code!

>>58342393
Is this a joke?

>>58332218
The only language I know well enough to look pretty is Python. This is the most effective way
I can think of doing FizzBuzz:

for i in range(1,101):
    fb = ''
    if i % 3 == 0:
        fb += 'Fizz'
    if i % 5 == 0:
         fb += 'Buzz'
    print(fb or i)

>>58342397
FizzBuzz is so common that anyone should know the algorithm off the top of their head. In their preferred language, they should write it out almost without thinking. In a new language, they should be able to hack together a solution pretty easily.

To me, a pass would be any working FizzBuzz script. Between two passes, the more efficient code is always better.

>>58342843
>the algorithm
Disappointed in you

Python:

for i in range(1, 101):
    if i % 15 == 0: # Divisible by 3 and 5
        print("FizzBuzz")
    elif i % 3 == 0:
        print("Fizz")
    elif i % 5 == 0:
        print("Buzz")
    else:
        print(i)

Rust:

fn main() {
    for i in 1..101 {
        match (i % 3, i % 5) {
            (true, false) => println!("Fizz"),
            (false, true) => println!("Buzz"),
            (true, true) => println!("FizzBuzz"),
            _ => println!("{}", i)
        };
    }
}

No one is writing FizzBuzz from scratch. You memorized an algorithm. If you write the "best" solution immediately, you memorized the syntax. If you go with the if/elif/elif/else, you memorized the algorithm.

As an interviewer, the there is no second pass for me. I just care about the thinking when someone figures out the solution, syntax correct or not. It doesn't matter how proficient people are in specific programming languages as compared to the quality of their way of thinking. Assuming a workplace environment in which people are be able to learn and grow, existing knowledge has little weight compared to the way of how someone's mind works.

Given the right mind, everyone can learn anything. I'd always prefer someone with no expertise and a great aptitude for learning over someone with staggering industry experience, but not mental flexibility.

fizzbuzz = lambda x: 'fizzbuzz' if x%15==0 else ('fizz' if x%3==0 else ('buzz' if x%5==0 else str(x)))

Open source means that you can read the source. Copyright restrictions apply.

Software freedom allows you to modify and share the source and binaries of it. Just being able to read the source does not allow you to do anything with it - an important licensing detail.

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {
    for (int i = 1; i < 101; i++) {
        if (i%3==0)
            printf("fizz\n");

            printf("buzz\n");

you're not allowed to compile an "open source" program?

>>58343659

>>58343608
Close. But the way it's written now any multiple of three or five will output "FizzFizzBuzz" or "BuzzFizzBuzz" respectively. There are two separate problems with your code that would cause that.

>>58343659
It's about distribution, not compiling. Once you have purchased code of proprietary software, you are free to compile it. (Although, you will usually receive a binary instead of the source, unless it's *nix drivers or something).

>>58343683
Nothing's stopping anyone except for the license. That's why the term "open source" is almost exclusively used to describe free software - anything short of free software makes little sense to be open source.

What's your problem?
If you say "add the numbers from 1 to 100" you would add "1+2+..+99+100", right?

(1..100) . reduce(:+)

Now I want to exclude a number, what's the most intuitive way from (1..100)? One more dot: (1...100).

How is that "goofy"?


If you want the usual "for (i=0; i<100; i++)" loop, just take Ruby's times-operator:

100.times { puts "asshole" }

I dare you calling that "goofy", Ruby is the most beautiful language ever.

for i in (1..100)
  puts (i%15).zero? ? "FizzBuzz":

>Ah yes, the "single dot of last element exclusion", I remember hearing about that in my maths textbook

In math you would write: [1, 100]
But brackets are are already in use for Arrays (in every programming language I know), so in Ruby this would create an array with the numbers 1 and 100.

So you might think about using (1-9), but that would mean "1 minus 9". Or using (1, 9)? But the comma is used for multiple assignment in ruby:

a, b = Array(1..5).partition { |i| i.odd? } 

..gives you two arrays, a = [1, 3, 5] and b = [2, 4]


So if the comma is already in use, the dots are often used in texts to indicate that something (...) is missing. It's also fast to type.

Now why the last dot?
Just remember to include the first int and the three following:
(1..100) = [1] [.] [.] [100] <-- it includes the 100
(1...100) = [1] [.] [.] [.] 100 <-- On noes, no 100

It's not beautiful, but it's cool.
I changed the Integer class and actually ask the objects if it's a "FizzBuzz". FizzBuzz tries to create a string of "fizz" and "buzz" and checks via RegEx if it's empty. If it's empty, it returns itself, other wise the string.

But hey, if you don't like it, maybe you prefer that one:

1.upto(100){|_|p'FizzBuzz'[_*_%3*4...8>>_**4%5][/.+/]||_}

Jesus Christ, what a stupid fucking language.

Look ma, no divisiones, no modulos, 1 'ternary' if

function fillBuffer(buffer, step, bound, value)
    index = step;
    i=1;
    while (index <= bound) do
        if (value == nil) then buffer[index] = index else buffer[index] = value end
        index = step * i;
        i = i+1;
        
    end
end

function fizzBuzz3(arg)

    values = {};
    
    fillBuffer(values,1, 100, nil);
    fillBuffer(values,3, 100, 'fizz');
    fillBuffer(values,5, 100, 'buzz');
    fillBuffer(values,15, 100, 'fizzbuzz');
    
    for i=1, 100 do
        print(values[i]);
    end
end

Fucking magic, man.
Fucking magic.

In scripting languages you want to do this kind of things.


>Why are you using RegEx to check if something is empty?

It has to do with the "faulthyness" of string. In Python or JS empty string get evaluated to false. In Ruby, empty string are True (more logical, since an empty string is '\0' in C).

So I have to use an regex to grab all symbols or return "Nil" (the Null-object in Ruby), so I can use the ||-operator:

"return Nil || 1" returns 1.


>Why are you using fucking methods for anything, let alone integers?

Because in Ruby everything is an object.

The funny thing is, Java is super complicated because "int" is a "native type" and "Integer" is a class.

This can fuck you badly if you make a map that takes Intergers as key, because "my_map.get(3)" gives you a different result as "my_map.get( (Integer) 3)".. Thanks to methods you can overwrite, you either get the 3rd element or the element for the key "3".. Bravo!!

Thank god in Scala they really made every int an object, like in Ruby. So much easier.

>it's an OOPs language

It's THE OOP language.
It's OOP done right.

It also has lambdas:

fizzbuzz = ->(i) do
  (i%15).zero? and next "FizzBuzz"
  (i%3).zero?  and next "Fizz"
  (i%5).zero?  and next "Buzz"
  i
end
 
puts (1..100).map(&fizzbuzz).join("\n")

You can even use arcane Scheme magick CallCC:

require 'continuation' unless defined? Continuation
 
if a = callcc { |c| [c, 1] }
  c, i = a
  c[nil] if i > 100
 
  case 0
  when i % 3
    print "Fizz"
    case 0
    when i % 5
      print "Buzz"
    end
  when i % 5
    print "Buzz"
  else
    print i
  end
 
  puts
  c[c, i + 1]
end

It might have to do with the general math problem we have.
Every other subject (except maybe geography and occasionally history) has it proponents and its detractors and is generally respected overall.

>(2) Very few people outside of CS have a clue what "CS" is. They assume that because it has the word "computer" in its name, then it must encompass anything dealing with computers.
I had some fun with this a few weeks ago with a guy that thinks too highly of himself. He said repeatedly that since he was a geologist he knew every science except medical science. I shit you not, he graduated with a degree in geology and is working in the field, and he made this claim forcefully. I said that doesn't encompass everything, so he said "oh yeah like what?" and I told him computer science. He said "bullshit, I work with computers all the time".

you know, come to think of it, he's originally from India... bah

>>58342216
>There wasn't some mythical period where CS was a well-defined concept.
bullshit, the term "computer science" first appeared in the early 20th century, before there were any computers

>>58340614
you don't actually need a modulo operator
when I was first introduced to fizzbuzz I didn't remember that operator existing so I did

if i / 3 == floor(i/3) { printf("fizz"); }

and so on
you do kind of need to know about one or the other though, or some method of getting at the remainder, which is actually skipped over in the basics a lot because people just learning usually don't give a shit about the math abilities of a language

>>58346048
A FUCKING BLANKET?
that's an award from these people?
what in the actual ever-living fuck
that is too much autism, that is not fucking cool, how did this happen?

>>58340554

Hell no.

I've done one math class in my degree, with another close. The math class was more concerned with the mathematics behind 3D representations on a 2D plane, matrices etc. I don't know where this would really be used unless you're building a game engine from scratch, for we typically had to use a library supplied. The sort-of math class was a first year subject going over (I kid you not) basic maths (from addition to very basic algebra) and some logic.

A quarter of my subjects were intro to language X. A further quarter assumed knowledge of a language and built on it, mostly in a group environment to 'build something'. Not a teaching environment. I did one subject in c++ which covered trees and other abstract ideas very briefly, but the assignment work was building a balanced tree over 3~ months, other assignment was a traveling salesman type. You're taught ideas of things that exist, not the full fledged implementation, because for so many, there already exist libraries you could use.

My degree was a CS: Bach Info Tech (majoring in software development) (Australia). Even I think it wasn't teaching me much, I wouldn't 4 years after my course be able to pass some these interviews. I don't code for fun at home, I just did the course work. And without the internet, being able to research and look up questions, I wouldn't have passed. I don't think we're adequately taught for work placement, we have fleeting experience with ideas and limited/focused hands on.

>>58332218

>>58347981
This is a good and proper FizzBuzz, nice job. Use code tags next time you post code here though.

>>58349235

Our CS, isn't CS. It's 'Here's some languages. Use them a few times, do some group work where you use existing libraries and produce a thing. Now graduate.'

I'm more interested in lower level stuff, but the lowest I got was using C on some ASM hardware. No actual understanding of how it worked, but 'read/reference this 200 page document, for this particular atmega32u', and use it in conjunction with the supplied hardware diagram to interact with peripherals (buttons, leds, lcd) on each pin. A more fun class, but still way over my head in more respects because I'm not a EE.

It's all about going out there and googling what library you need and how to implement it for the current problem. Even I don't think the degree should have the CS label. We never touched anything below C, and that class wasn't core to the degree, that was an elective.

Don't fall for the meme. NO software dev interviews ask you to fizz buzz. Never happened to me or any of my friends. Obviously they already expect you to know it. Actually nvm, If you're a feminist or minority they'll ask you to fizz buzz and if you are close enough they'll hire you strictly for diversity purposes and to shut up the leftists who cry "racist" and "sexist" every minute.

public class FizzBuzz {
    int value;
    public FizzBuzz(int i) { this.value = i; }
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        FizzBuzz fizzBuzz = new FizzBuzz(0);
        for(int i=1; i<=100; i++) {
            fizzBuzz.setValue(i);
            System.out.println( fizzBuzz );
        }
    }

    public void setValue(int value) {
        this.value = value;
    }

    @Override
    public String toString() {
        boolean multFive = ( this.value % 5 == 0);
        boolean multThree = ( this.value % 3 == 0);
        if( multFive && multThree ) return "FizzBuzz";
        if( multFive) return "Buzz";
        if( multThree) return "Fizz";
        return String.valueOf(this.value);
    }
}

>>58342629

How many in the work place know that kind of thing off the top of their head (without having worked/studied in a related field for years)? Constant exposure is needed for this kind of long term memory, if you're not getting that I can understand people wanting the very tools you'll have available to provide assistance. I'd rather employ someone able to do research and learn, than someone whose done their exact/crammed homework for passing a single test.

I guess I'm comparing the wrong kind of interview example there. It's mostly assuming someone who is just passing a degree (and who may not have done that kind of thing in months or years), against someone currently working in the field.
