There's master theorem though...

This isn't the reason why signed overflow is UB in C.

In short, no. There's a reason that General Number Sieve is only used for numbers bigger that 10^80 and Elliptic Curve Method (ECM) is used instead. If number is smaller, than you don't benefit from the better complexity. This inv

You say "Western" while in fact these all are English artifacts. AFAIK, in French there is no direct translation of "software", which is called "logiciel" - a piece of things that deals with logic. The examples

If you're in a place where being woman is disadvantageous, would you call such disadvantage "racist"? Clearly it fits your description. If you think it's wrong, then I agree with you. If you think it's racist, then

In Python it's json.load(file), so no indirection needed whatsoever.

Oops, you meant -2^15 I guess.

It's also quite possible, that the people who use these features use Python 2 anyway.
189.
by enedil 7y ago
I'm not the OP, but I suspect that what was means was backporting features to py2.7, which presumably use some new Python 3 which haven't been built in the old language version.

Does that imply there are no people but Americans and Europeans? Why don't you simply check where is she from? It's quite easy to check that she has polish name, speaks fluent polish, so I guess she is in fact polish. But why did

Care to explain?

I'm surprised that nobody included "clicking on the url bar in order to modify it" as a mitigation.

Is it Vect?

No, what is meant by that, is that multiplying 2 by 3 takes about the same time as multiplying 432434232 by 1213213213. Not only bounded time, about the same.

To be honest, this is false too. You need functions with values that can be multiplied by scalars. If you just have ordered set, then you can't account for this constant from the definition. Alternatively, you could say that values of

You're confusing O with Theta.

Yeah, what's the problem here? Presumably Facebook won't get the data on the legal owner of the number.

Nah, every algorithm that is O(N logN) is also O(n^2). That would be a sign, that you as an interviewer didn't fully grasp Big O.
201.
by enedil 8y ago
Yeah, you really could have. It also grinds me when people will say "it's O(n), not O(n^(3/2))", because the former is a subset of later, not to mention talking about worst case/average case/best case. Big O no

Maybe that's because computer science is not software development?

Note that China is 5 times more populated, so this comparison is not entirely fair.

Using Euclid's algorithm (not Euler's) is certainly not the easiest way of checking for divisibility by 3 - a number is divisible by 3 if and only if it's sum of digits is divisible by 3. You can repeat the process until you

Some even speculate Fermat didn't write this note. Most of his works were collected by his son who is suspected of adding this commentary to a conjecture that was considered many times by Fermat.

That's exactly the problem with idempotency.

Sorry for blunt words, but that's bullshit. If there is no proof a client is secure from malicious server, then this system is useless from the security point of view. You can have open source solution, but you might be running tweaked

Yes, as long as you are logged in. If you log out, that possibility disappears too.
