Personally, I can play a Windows game purchased on Steam on Linux/MacOS using Wine (This is how I currently play Age of Empires II). You can't say the same about a Windows Store game.

It's a pity they aren't releasing on Steam though. Most players aren't going to buy the game from the Win10 store.

The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe is actually the second book in the series, even though it was written first :)

If the last 'n' generated numbers were also given to you, this seems like a fair task - to check the randomness of a sequence of numbers. Wikipedia has an article about "randomness tests". [1] An example algorithm could

LineageOS has a moderately large selection of supported phones for a custom ROM and it has weekly updates. My two and a half year old Moto E has the October 5th security patches for Android.

I'm from India and I'm horrified that so many people are willing to do work for nothing or next to nothing...

It’s an OS for your phone that becomes a proper desktop OS if you plug in a monitor, mouse, keyboard etc. I don’t think this has been done before, or maybe I’m just hopelessly unaware? Either way, I think it’s quite interesting.

That's not how a requirements.txt file is written [1], but I suppose that the author intends you to run those commands in your shell. [1]: https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/reference/pip_install/#require
