| tziOm | what is the most efficient way to do: floor($foo/600)*600 |
| ChibaPet | um |
| Altreus | floor $foo |
| Altreus | :P |
| DrForr | Premature micro-optimization detected at line 0. |
| Altreus | I think that /is/ the most efficient way to do it |
| ChibaPet | what about int $foo? |
| ChibaPet | or is floor more efficient? |
| Altreus | I think this is rounding to the nearest 600 |
| Altreus | er, the lowest 600 |
| Altreus | int truncates towards 0 |
| ChibaPet | doesn't floor do that as well? |
| DrForr | You're looking at micro-optimization in *math*. Surely there are bigger fish to fry? |
| Altreus | ChibaPet: consider negatives |
| ChibaPet | Oh! Negatives. Slipped right by me. Thanks. |
| Altreus | the difference in most operations is evident in negatives, except the various rounding techniques |
| fizzie | Negative numbers, brr, they're just not natural. |
| Altreus | :) |
| rindolf | fizzie: :-) |
| rindolf | fizzie: but they are real. |
| rindolf | fizzie: and they aren't imaginary or complex. |
| Altreus | they're not /that/ real |
| rindolf | fizzie: though they can be irrational. |
| rindolf | Heh. |
| DrForr | -5 ∈ ℝ |
| antox | I think tziOm wanted to round down to 10 minutes. Maybe s/.:..$/0:00/ is an option? :D |
| * Altreus | smacks antox with a bin |
| * rindolf | smacks antox with a larger bin. |
| Altreus | this one http://www.suasnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/dusty1.gif |
| * ChibaPet | hands antox a fish. |
| shorten | Altreus's url is at http://xrl.us/bmpbt6 |
| rindolf | My bin is bigger than Altreus'. |
| DrForr | Rainbow trout all 'round! |
| Altreus | was that a pun |
| antox | Anyway guys, I haven't got if I should be proud of getting smacked by a bin. |
| Altreus | no |
| Altreus | it's pain-based learning |
| rindolf | antox: you were smacked by two bins - one smaller, one larger. |
| Cipher-0 | You made a mistake???!one!!! Clean out your desk at once!!!!!!eleven!!!!! |
| antox | And no supper today! |
