this is an extremely good #Rust resource

aaaand done, for now. once I test it out with visn some more and in actual use I'll probably publish it as one or more crates (one for atci and one for the actual permutations, maybe)

it's also theoretically possible to remove the factorial memory constraint if i implement the algorithm in a different way, and that would definitely be nice.

i mean it's generating permutations so it's inherently a factorializing process but that doesn't have to extend to memory usage

well, i had to give up some generality and just use &'a [T] instead of a generic indexable type, but that's ok for now

ok fine y'all I did a bingo

@pingveno Oh, that makes a ton more sense. Thank you so much!

hmm, any #rust peeps know why &[T] doesn't implement Index<usize>?

Obviously you can do

let slice = &[1, 2, 3];
slice[1];

but I'm not sure if I'm missing some sugar being applied here

And more importantly, how do I take anything indexable by usize generically if I can't take &[T] with I: Index<usize>?

the difference between

for index in 0..k

and

for index in 0..(k-1)

is surprisingly large

.... why aren't those emoji showing up

higher :clap: kinded :clap: types :clap: when

today we're playing the "how many type parameters can Nora use on one function" game

I finally got my little Rocket app updated. It needs tests and maybe a little cleanup but I'm pretty proud of it, as a proof of concept from the early days of Rocket.

However, I accidentally deleted the quote database, so, go nuts! Fill it up with whatever you can think of, sans cursing and lewdness.
