Euler's Fizzbuzz (2020)

Re:Euler's Fizzbuzz (2020) by LanceH on Tuesday March 16, 2021 @11:47AM (#26478371)

My entry to use random-isn't-random: https://github.com/LanceH/fizzbuzz/blob/master/fb.go

I feel like I need to revisit after seeing tensorflow and Euler. I need to find some way of making the lucky number using things around a room, like a mentalist or something.

Some other subversive ones I've seen of are the java enterprise version, and several that import a fizzbuzz library and just run.

I find that random-not-random implementation pretty incredible.

Thanks.

It seems kind of obvious compared to the Euler method, though. Once you realize it's 4 bits across a cycle of 15, it's just just a matter of finding the right seed. It should be on the order of 1 in a billion, which is no big deal. In hindsight, if I had combined my number theory knowledge I might have been able to accomplish the Euler solution, but I didn't, so hats off to them.

The presentation of the tensorflow provides more a much higher contempt for the question than I've achieved as well. The fact it isn't 100% accurate, but can be trained to be accurate to a certain level, just makes it better.

I will redouble my research efforts on this or some other problem which doesn't need solving.
