/prog/ Challenge #1256 - Monstrous Moonshine

Write a program (in LISP, of course), that has something to do with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monstrous_moonshine

Math and Lisp are Jewish tools to put down the goyim.

Academic circle jerking.

Academic Jewish tools.

Ok, but give me two days.

I don't understand your article. WTF is Generalized Kac–Moody algebras? What is string theory?

Are these names algorithmically generated or something?

(lisp (is (gay)))

E/G/IN XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

"GRUNNUR"

Is it possible for such a program to do anything useful?

display("Is","it","possible","for","such","a","program","to","do","anything","useful?")

wrong thread

what's this doing not on the front page?

back to /FUQIN ABSTRACT BULLSHITE/, please

Have you read your FUQIN ABSTRACK buLLSHITe today?

196884 = 196883 + 1
well that explains everything...

My "I don't give a shit" understanding is: we have this finite simple group that has the largest order known. There's a complex-valued function (which represents an elliptic curve) whose series expansion yields coefficients that correspond to the dimensions of matricies that we can use to generate elements of said group through matrix multiplication.

I genuinely have no idea. The guy who proved this connection won a Fields Medal. If someone finds something cool, you can probably publish a paper. To be honest though, this isn't really interesting to me at all. RSA being secure is more mathematically interesting to me than this.

Apparently it's useful to string theory, which I don't know anything about, except that it has apparently provided no useful experimental results which, I think, is the point of physics. It all strikes me as applying mathematical tools to physical theory that someone else created and then calling yourself a genius. I'm ignorant, however, so that's a non-professional opinion.

Meh.

They should've explained it geometrically

Wikipedia is free to edit you know.

Yeap. Just like dubs!

>>22 Nice dubs bro!

No.

what's this doing not on the front page?

>>23
Languishing in obscurity, just like the mathematicians that waste their lives thinking up this crap.

>>24
It's this abstract crap that eventually trickles down into engineering, and forms the foundations of all technology.

>>25
Bah.  I don't believe in Reaganomics.

But it's the reaganomics of abstract bullshite.

>>27
please post more.

I'm but a flap of a butterfly's wings in a hurricane >>28. I never would have written >>27 if it wasn't for >>26.

It's part of yoba-lisp standard library. One-liner solution:
(yoba-lisp-17 'monstrous-moonshine)

No, I am still thinking about the millionairs with fetishes problem.

I told you then and I'm telling you now; it's impossible if either participant cheats and fills in every possible fetish.

"I like dicks."

I'm heterosexual and I just ruined your algorithm just by saying that.

>>32

Therefore you need to change the challenge somewhat. The only question the protocol should answer is: are you compatible?

>>30
ЙОБА?

>>34
Oh, then it's very simple. The answer is no.

well, well, what's this here thread not doing on the front page? Not but that I reckon not!

WELL, WELL, WHAT'S THIS HERE THREAD NOT DOING IN MY ANUS

Wow, not a single answer from someone able to do this? You guys suck dook yo. straight dumbasses with your bbcode and muh "le XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD" shit motherfucker fuck yall man

>>39
I'm too busy shit posting. Maybe I'll get to it next week. In the mean time I'll keep it on the front page.
