Heh, yeah, you're right... It needs to be n+o-p... But hey, what's the point of testing when you're trying to write the worst code possible? (Still haven't tested... I was going to, but the compiler pulled a knife on me and said some very non-KSS things would happen if I tried)

Bah, I can do better than that!
//TODO: Remove all comments before publishing. Real programmers don't need comments!
public function SuperMod(int n, int o) // o is a great variable, because it looks like a zero
{
int p = o; //Shorter variable names make the code run faster!
loopy: //Labels make me feel young again!
while (p < n) p += o;
if (p < n) goto loopy; //Just in case the compiler makes a mistake
int answer = p - n;
return answer;
}Ok, I think that's about as bad as I can make it, and though I didn't test it at all (Honestly, I think the compiler would come to life and slit my throat for even trying to execute this monstrosity), that should technically give the right answer... Unless 'o' is negative or zero, but validating parameters is so 20th century...

Ok, but if you're gonna use that code, make sure to either fix the bug, or... uh... only test with (4,2).

This is terribly incorrect, because I stopped counting on an odd number, so there are more odd numbers than even. Thank you for your input. :D
You might get a more accurate result if you start at infinity and count backward.

There was a thing on the telly recently that stated it had been voted back in as a planet.

That is such a coincidence because I've just been voted in as a planet too. Very cool. I hope to be voted in as a Sun one day so I can go by the name Apollo. It's such a cool name. Plus then all you people will have to rotate around me and I'll be the center of your Universe. Yes, the sun is the center of the Universe. I pre-emptively struck on your future humor that I didn't know that the sun was the center of a solar system. Wham!

Author of the Guardians Saga (Sci-Fi/Fantasy novels)Testing ? If it fails, that's what Q&A is for. I don't need to test. :-D

Great idea. I'm working on this now. :D

back.....away.....from.....the.....keyboard......:~

If he's the center of the universe, then technically shouldn't the keyboard back away from him?

Maybe it can't because the gravitational pull is so strong.

Well, then it's time to invent an escape-assist rocket for a keyboard. Or honestly, maybe you should just let it collapse into him... If you add enough keyboards (And divert the entire manufacturing capacity of the human race to this for several million years), you could turn him into a black hole. I don't know where this is going, but my gut tells me it's just one punchline away from being funny.

Ok, that's a start, but now you have to combine it with the semi-joke... Somehow connect that to a black h-- Ya know what... Let's just let that one go-- Err, no, don't do that... Uh... Just pass-- No...

Every time planets or orbits or space or universe or anything astronomical then there is the required mention of the 7th planet in our solar system. We really need a rename on that planet, don't you think?

This whole chain of riffs was great though. Way to go out there.

+2 for the chuck norris reference. I should've seen it coming, but I was busy with my countdown from infinity.

It was renamed... In 2620. Don't you watch Futurama?

Author of the Guardians Saga (Sci-Fi/Fantasy novels)I haven't watched Futurama, because I boycotted The Simpsons in Season 2 and haven't watched anything by Matt Groening since. I know. Pretty cool, huh?

This is the whole of a would-be Tip submitted today:
public class Class1
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Console.WriteLine("Enter a Number");
int num = int.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
for (int i = 1; i <=num ; i++)
{
if(i==2)
Console.WriteLine(2);if (i % 2 != 0) { Console.WriteLine(i); } } } }No text, no explanation - the author (I can only assume he works for Mindfire, it's about their level) clearly felt that it spoke for itself. And boy, does it ever! This, ladies-n-gentlemen, is a Prime Number generator according to the author. So...I tried it... According to this code, the prime numbers under 26 are:
1
2
3
5
7
9
11
13
15
17
19
21
23
25Now, call me old fashioned, but in my day, 9, 15 and 21 were divisible by 3, and both 15 and 25 were divisible by 5... So which is wrong? The Code? Or the Laws of Mathematics? Only the author can tell... :laugh:
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...
What's the problem? That lists all the primes less than 26. It also lists some other numbers as well, no extra charge.
