Post funny things about programming here! (Or just rant about your favourite programming language.)
I just wanted a short explanation.
Is this even right?
In the language man I wonder what the language is
I bet I lost that part of the explanation when I asked for layman's terms.
Nah, pretty sure that is just a (very mild) hallucination because it couldn't find an actual good example
Yeah, problem is that I'm not aware of anyone who actually writes octal numbers as "OCT123" nor decimal numbers as "DEC123". It's basically a made-up syntax, supposed to look plausible for both date notation and number system notation. It's part of the joke, which LLMs won't understand.
Yes, that is correct.
Cool, the plausible answers are always the most dangerous.
Except for the part about using OCT or DEC to talk about octal and decimal numbers is ok.
From wikipedia:
I think 0o31 would be the "correctish" way a programmer/computer scientist would talk about it.
Advanced calculators (both physical ans virtual) have DEC/BIN/OCT/HEX buttons so there is some truth to this abbreviation.
Is anyone else bothered by how often things are reiterated in this reply?
