Dijkstra

Yeah but sometimes what is expensive ( precious) in our terms is cheap in computer terms and vice versa what is cheap in our terms turns to be expensive in computer terms ( takes a lot of power to process) In this case you would think something good is produced that goes to waste

However all of that depends on how you are going to use it. And even should include questioning business requirements as to why they think they need something in the first place.
I see what you’re saying, just because I don’t need that potentially useful information doesn’t mean a scenario where that information is being used could not be imagined. Thanks

Is the problem with dijkstra the fact that it computes not only the shortest path towards the destination but also the shortest path from the starting tile to any other tile in the search area ?

Write it yourself. Limitations will be, and Dijkstra solves some, not all. ..or just ask ChatGTP if it's homework.

We have learned that it is currently far from a reliable source for this kind of work.

Yes, we who support members in the Quick Answers[^] section of the website. We have been watching the solutions given using ChatGPT as plagiarised answers. Half the time it does not compile, and mostly when it does, it does not work.

I cannot reply in any form or format and I cannot think; she just told me that there will be three of us.

Eddy just curious, your way of addressing is always so sketchy, do you always expect the other person to guess the second half of the thing you’re trying to say?

I address developers. If it sketchy, you're not. Half a word is all you can get, since money on the line.

This is help wanted forum, when you provide feedback besides knowing stuff you also need the ability to explain it You want me to wave my developer badge? I’m just a student. But that doesn’t mean I can’t make the difference between a good explanation and a bad one. This is our second encounter, I see you using the same style as previosely

Ok, that was unfriendly on my behalf. However you have to admit your approach isn’t exactly teachers style.

Did you consider the option that you were right? If something is important to you, it's a passion, right? So, we speak with passion, and wars break out over the placement of a newline in code. I'm not apologizing, and you have nothing to apologize for either.

I'd panic if someone told me I had to stand in front of a classroom again :laugh: ..but seriously, write it yourself and start simpeler than Dijkstra. The easiest path-finding algo is to simply "try all nodes and measure them". That will cost a lot of memory and computing power, but it would work and the result is the optimal path. Go for it; every stop is a node, and we weigh distance. Next step is to try to optimize that. I'm pretty sure you can eliminate all those paths that go the wrong way for a certain distance. Then write Dijkstra's algo. Once you understand the optimization, you understand it's implications and limitations. So, asking that question means either you or the teacher is trying a shortcut. Maybe the teacher is right. ..but this approach works every time. Anything else is parroting a textbook IMO.

edit: You start with two rhetorical statements (two questions) one after the other, usually that’s not how an argument is made. I had to say it. > we speak with passion In my opinion passion is one thing it has a positive meaning, lashing out by breaking the boundaries of politeness (which is what I did) is something else.

Ah. Now I understand the point you're making. So now the student is teaching me? I just write what comes to mind, sometimes emotion gets mixed in. I don't recognize the rhetorical question as one, just like I do not recognize passive-aggressive. I've never had a real education, something I intend to remedy this year and which will take more than just "this" year. There's some area's where my skills could be improved upon, so to speak. See the first line in my sig for a hint why. Given your reaction, you're ahead of me on that point. Take heart in that.

>So now the student is teaching me. Not at all. We are all different and have our own way of expressing ourselves. Your argument might still be valid, however the way you express it makes it difficult( not impossible) to follow

Rather certain that almost everyone would be comfortable with the statement that Hitler's speeches were passionate. But many would not claim that the passion was positive.

Many would be wrong then. You can hardly blame "passionate speaking" for the results.
