What is the Entscheidungsproblem? This problem, posed by David Hilbert in 1928, was proven separately by both Turing and Alonzo Church, to have no general solution. The Many Achievements of Alan Turing 500 | What is C? Function declarations with no arguments can be called (without error) with one or more arguments C, C++, or Both? 500 | What is chunk? It returns an Enumerator where each element contains the result of the block (X) and the group of consecutive elements of the collection which yield X (5 characters) Innumerable Enumerables 500 | What is Default Scope Creep? An ActiveRecord keyword for reusing search criteria, but watch out, because it can sneak up on you Before and After 100 | What is the Observer Pattern? With this pattern, the subject will maintain a list of dependents, which will be notified of any changes. Find the Pattern 400 | What is the 90s? Tim Berners-Lee, the inventor of the worldwide web, launches http://info.cern.ch, the world's first website Name the Decade 500 |
What is Secure Voice? Code-named "Delilah", Turing worked on this technology during the latter half of WWII. The Many Achievements of Alan Turing 400 | What is C? Designated Initializers: struct blah { int x; int y; } thing = {.x = 3, .y = 4}; C, C++, or Both? 400 | What is reject? It returns an array for all elements of the given collection for which the given block is false
(6 characters) Innumerable Enumerables 200 | What is Spaghetti Code Smell? It is tangled and messy...and not too fresh either Before and After 200 | What is the Flyweight Pattern? To reduce memory cost, this pattern uses an object to share data, when many objects would otherwise be necessary. Find the Pattern 500 | What is the 90s? The popular "Gang of Four" book "Design Patterns: Elements of Object-Oriented Software" is published, popularizing software design patterns Name the Decade 400 |
What is a Bombe? Designed by Turing in 1939, this device helped the British decipher transmissions from an Enigma Machine. The Many Achievements of Alan Turing 300 | What is Both? Enumerated Types C, C++, or Both? 300 | What is group_by? It creates a hash, where the keys are the results of the block and the values are arrays corresponding to the keys
(8 characters) Innumerable Enumerables 300 | What is God Object Oriented Programming? An omniscient paradigm aimed at grouping common data and interactions Before and After 300 | What is the Facade Pattern? When dealing with many objects at once, this pattern can be used to put a simpler front on the code. Find the Pattern 300 | What is the 80s? Objective-C, the main language used by Apple in the OSX and iOS operating systems is created Name the Decade 300 |
What is Artificial Intelligence? The Turing Test is a test to determine whether a machine could exhibit this property. The Many Achievements of Alan Turing 200 | What is C++? Operator Overloading C, C++, or Both? 200 | What is partition? It returns one array containing elements of the collection for which the block evaluates to true, and another with elements for which the block evaluates to false (9 characters) Innumerable Enumerables 400 | What are Continuous Integration Tests? Incorporating new features constantly, and making sure they work with the rest of the system Before and After 400 | What is the Command Pattern? This pattern uses an object to hold the information needed to call a method from another object. Find the Pattern 200 | What is the 00s? A document is created to find "better ways of developing software by doing it and helping others do it", called The Manifesto for Agile Software Development Name the Decade 200 |
