the problem is that his `square(int x)` was not returning a value

2019-09-10 12:47:31 UTC  

the compiler should be giving a warning about this

2019-09-10 12:49:44 UTC  

i guess we figured that out already

2019-09-10 12:50:11 UTC  

yep

2019-09-10 12:51:38 UTC  

but why not square by just multiplying the numbers? its much more efficient than the iterative approaches

2019-09-10 12:51:58 UTC  

He added it's part of the coding prompt to do it without multiplying

2019-09-10 12:52:30 UTC  

ahhh

2019-09-10 12:53:22 UTC  

This is coding homework, don't you know?

You have to reinvent the wheel first before we can get to basic array declarations

2019-09-10 12:53:31 UTC  

been a while since ive had to do that haha

reverse a string in place

Reinvent Bubble Sorting

2019-09-10 12:57:23 UTC  

implement quick sort

2019-09-10 12:57:59 UTC  

tedious sometimes but i do think these fundamentals are important

2019-09-10 12:58:40 UTC  

definitely important

2019-09-10 12:59:10 UTC  

VBA doesn't come with any builtin for sorting arrays

2019-09-10 12:59:18 UTC  

VBA

2019-09-10 12:59:21 UTC  

dafuq

2019-09-10 12:59:40 UTC  

like if you want to extend the functionality of excel some

2019-09-10 12:59:49 UTC  

Yeah they still teach that @picnicnapkin

2019-09-10 13:00:16 UTC  

My community college did for Introductory Programming, with some HTML thrown in for good measure

2019-09-10 13:00:40 UTC  

python or javascript would be much better

2019-09-10 13:00:56 UTC  

>needing to be taught python

2019-09-10 13:01:23 UTC  

but i agree vba is a shit language

2019-09-10 13:02:28 UTC  

everyone starts somewhere, for learning basics i mean whatever its fine

2019-09-10 13:16:24 UTC  

Real programmers only multiply by 2

2019-09-10 13:23:05 UTC  

i wouldnt surprised if the x86 mult instruction was turing complete

2019-09-10 13:23:15 UTC  

`mov` is, apparently

2019-09-11 02:54:18 UTC  

why is france the healthiest country in the world according to who
