What about ⊂((・▽・))⊃
Thank you for letting me hate it as well.
this took me a while but after converting to ascii in hex I get it
“())(” = 40 41 41 40
“()()” = 40 41 40 41
As long your strings aren’t null terminated

What kind of monstrous bug prone language would do that?
This has ruined my day.
Had to take a break and come back later before it made sense.
This is an unacceptable glitch in the universe.
It’s time to reboot it with a patch.
Let us substitute: ( - x, ) - y
Thus ()() becomes xyxy
())( becomes xyyx
Now clearly it can be seen, even while high, that the second one is and the first isn’tfor those too lazy to google,
palindrome /păl′ĭn-drōm″/ noun A word, verse, or sentence, that is the same when read backward or forward. “madam; Hannah; or Lewd did I live, & evil I did dwel.”() () backwards is )( )(
() )( backwards is () )(Oh god, please no 😄
I’m not saying I was having a good day before, but this made it that lil bit worse.
“()()” is an ambigram, which wikipedia describes as “visual palindromes”, for whatever that’s worth.
WIKIPEDIA CAN SHOW GIFS?!
I love that the word ambigram can be made to look as an ambigram whereas palindrome - wtf, could have done so much better with naming that guys.
1212 isn’t a palindrome, but 1221 is.
What about ))-((
The reverse would be ((-))
Palindromes? Haha right guys so funny
Totally not feeling inadequate as a vs graduate again. How bout them FAANGS, haha Arch
It’s not complicated at all: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palindrome. Not really something that’s education-specific, in this instance (though I suppose it’s commonly used in entry-level programming classes since it’s a simple concept).
Yea but I’m just generally dumb in a pool of smart people. Not like I’m using palindromes in everyday conversation so when I see it I gotta look it up. Like when I saw a Fibonacci sequence and mentioned that it looks like something I’ve seen before but couldn’t remember where. This doesn’t even touch on why the syntax mentioned is a palindrome 😆
All it means is if you were to reverse the order of the characters, you’d get the same string you started with. So “dog” isn’t a palindrome because when you reverse it, you get “god”. “dog god” is a palindrome, though, because if you read it backwards, it’s also “dog god”.
Nobody uses palindromes in everyday conversation.
They are only useful as nerd jokes, interesting math facts (with no real world application), and stupid leetcode algorithms (with no real world application).
Nearly everybody here knows about them because nearly everybody here is exposed to lots of instances of those 3 categories. You could be feeling out of the loop, but you shouldn’t at all get impostor syndrome from it.
That’s actually a great response and just wanted to let you know I appreciate it. I’m actually pretty good with where I’m at and just joking around but your messages made me feel good and I wanted to let you know that and I appreciated it
Wild stuff.
