Today’s exercise was ETL which basically just reformatted some data. It was pretty easy. A community solution doing it in LINQ looked like an unreadable mess to me. For the interpreter, I think my setup is inherently flawed. I need[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
100 Days of Code 2025
Today’s exercise was a Substitution Cipher. My code is kind of an ugly mess of modulus operations but it works. Although I did accidently define a constant twice and leave an unnecessary copy around. Some of the community solutions were[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Today’s exercise was Roman numerals. Surprisingly difficult for me to get right. I saw the community solutions and mine is overly complicated. I just went down the line of each possible numeral largest to smallest. Other people had special cases[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I made it to the three quarter mark … 75%!! WAHOO! Just 25 more to go. Today’s exercise was protein translation. Given a string of three character codons return a string array of the matching amino acids stopping when you[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Today’s exercise was to build the nursery rhyme “the House that Jack Built.” Took me longer than expected. The exercise description seemed to want you to use recursion but I didn’t and neither did anyone else I saw in the[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Today’s exercise was Strain. You need to make a new collection based on an existing one. For Keep include only those that match a Boolean function, in Discard only return those that do not match the function. Pretty easy, just[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I have to admit the first community solution for today’s exercise used the Zip and Skip higher order functions from LINQ, and it looked very nice. The exercise was to build up a string for the “for want of a[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Today’s exercise was “Bottle Song” which is really just a bowdlerized version “99 Bottles of Beer” Is that site really so lame and pathetic that they have to censor a children’s song? They also replaced minesweeper with flower field because[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Todays exercise was raindrops. If a number is evenly divisible by 3, 5, or 7 you give it raindrop sounds for each given number (combined if it is a multiple of two or more of the numbers). If it isn’t[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Today’s exercise forgot to put in some function stubs which broke things. I had to figure out from the test cases what I was even supposed to do. I figured it out but that is super lame. Anyway the exercise[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
