/prog/ Challenge -- Hydrocarbons [Heroic]

The challenge: Develop a program that takes in the notation of a hydrocarbon in standard form, and outputs a correct ball-and-stick graphical representation of that hydrocarbon.

The Deadline: 2010-08-30 20:00

Your implementation will be judged based on the following guidelines:


1. Accuracy
2. Consistency
3. Run time
4. Clarity of output
5. Code readability
6. Overall functionality


Good Luck!

Unlike your shitty Europeon country, chemistry is required in American schools. You Europeons are so funny when you accuse each other of being Americans and reveal your complete ignorance of anything that happens outside of your ass-backwards wannabe Soviet Union.

I'm an American and I had to take it.

How is this a challenge? This is most definitely homework!

>>39
I'm an American and I had to take chemistry all throughout my education system.  It was mixed into a generic "Science" all through 2-8, in high school I was required to pass two classes that involved chemistry, and college Freshman prerequisite classes involved passing two semesters of Chemistry and a separate chemistry lab class before you could begin your formal major's courses.  The latter-most was probably the only bit excessive part.

In fact, based on what I've read, there aren't many parts of the United States where a certain amount of chemistry isn't a prerequisite.  If you're American, what part of the country do you come from and may we assist its education system?

Otherwise, I don't want to know about your country.

no

I'm an American and I don't want to know about your shitty country, because America is the best, also I'm ignorant of other educational systems, also whether chemistry is compulsory or not is a decent measure of how good/communist/European the country is.

Someone finally said it.

So who won? Is it Xarn?

>>47
You were right up to the second comma, then you went off on some crazy unrelated tangent likely caused by being a europeon.

>>50
No, Your a peon.

>>45
My country has the highest (equal) education index in the world.¹ The fact you blindly make assumptions and quote, "don't want to know about your [my] country." because chemistry isn't compulsory is almost laughable. The ignorance of the uneducated knows no bounds.

No, seriously, I mean I don't want to know about your country.  I thought you Euro-guys already believed that Americans didn't care about geography and other countries.

>>52
The fact you blindly make assumptions
You mean like >>39 did when he claimed that American students aren't required to take chemistry, which is incorrect?

>>54
I wasn't >>39, and yes; he is also an idiot.

Butthurt Americans always getting defensive over the fact that their secondary education is a laughing stock. None of them seem to be able to contribute to the thread, I notice.

>>56
Gotta love that irony.

This thread needs demographics feedback.

This almost feels like an exercise from SICP.

(Except it uses chemistry instead of physics, EE, and math.)
