CherishedThoughts<p>I've been a coder off and on for 8 years. I enjoy programming, but I've always enjoyed crocheting way more. But I could never truly find the balance between the two, until now. Coding isn’t always cold and clinical. Sometimes, it spirals into something poetic. I used a rose curve and some trigonometry to visualize the art of crochet with code.<br><a href="https://fiberartsdecoded.blog/blog/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">fiberartsdecoded.blog/blog/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://me.dm/tags/computerscience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>computerscience</span></a> <a href="https://me.dm/tags/crochet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>crochet</span></a> <a href="https://me.dm/tags/Java" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Java</span></a> <a href="https://me.dm/tags/Processing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Processing</span></a> <a href="https://me.dm/tags/rosecurve" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>rosecurve</span></a> <a href="https://me.dm/tags/formula" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>formula</span></a> <a href="https://me.dm/tags/mathematics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mathematics</span></a> <a href="https://me.dm/tags/algorithms" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>algorithms</span></a></p>

Different Than<p>Looking for ideas for building a little <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Rstats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Rstats</span></a> function.</p><p>Let's say I asked a bunch of people if they felt older, younger, or the same age as half a dozen randomly-selected ages.</p><p>Let's say that because that's what I did.</p><p>Example: Jane is asked this question about ages 17, 19, 25, 38, 41, and 52.</p><p>Each person answers younger/same/older to each of the ages (each person also gets a different selection of ages to answer).</p><p>Ultimately, I want to use those answers to get an estimate of the age each person feels. First, however, I want to see how numerically consistent each person's answers are.</p><p>Examples: if Jane said<br>17: older<br>19: older<br>25: older<br>38: same age<br>41: younger<br>52: younger</p><p>That's numerically consistent. However, if she said</p><p>17: older<br>19: younger<br>25: older<br>38: same age<br>41: older<br>52: younger</p><p>that's not consistent (she can't be both younger than 19 and older than 41).</p><p>It's also consistent if she said she felt younger than all the ages or older than all of them.</p><p>Maybe because it's late or maybe because I'm slow, I'm having a hard time approaching this. I'll leave it on the back burner for a couple of days since it's late where I am and I won't have time for it tomorrow.</p><p>If any of y'all (and many of you are ridiculously more quantitatively skilled than I am) have ideas of how to approach a function for this, or -- even better -- if a solution already exists as a formula or something, lay it on me. I'll be in your debt*.</p><p>*up to but not surpassing verbal compliments and possibly $2 USD</p><p><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/help" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>help</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/statistics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>statistics</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/math" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>math</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/function" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>function</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/formula" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>formula</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/problem" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>problem</span></a></p>
