Show HN: Astro-Bot – A programming question with every new tab

Pretty cool! However, some riddles are incorrect, for example this one has two errors:<p><pre><code> def foo( vals ): output = vals[0] for x in vals[1:]: if output &lt; x: output = x return x </code></pre> 1. It should return output<p>2. The answer should be &quot;The maximum value&quot;, not &quot;The minimum value&quot;<p>Also, it could be nice if after you solve a riddle you would get a new one.

Wouldn’t a better idea be to show a question on Stack Overflow which is somewhat upvoted but still without an accepted answer?

<p><pre><code> $ git checkout -b feature </code></pre> The answer to this is wrong -- got green on &quot;merge two branches&quot; rather than &quot;create and then checkout a new branch called &#x27;feature&#x27;&quot;.

Why would I want to be distracted while doing a task that serves a certain purpose? I must be the only one not just opening new tabs out of boredom :P

The following is incorrect for finding a missing number in a sequence.<p><pre><code> func foo( _ nums: [Int] ) -&gt; Int { var sum = 0 var _ = nums.map {sum += $0} return (nums.count * ((nums.count+1) &#x2F; 2)) - sum } </code></pre> The last line should be<p><pre><code> return ((nums.count+1) * ((nums.count+2) &#x2F; 2)) - sum </code></pre> The count of nums will give the incorrect answer since it&#x27;s already missing a value.

I enjoyed it, but you should allow me to disable random HackerNews links. That&#x27;s not the purpose of the extension.

Nice! It would be cool if there was some kind of points to denote how many questions we have answered correctly.

Is there a Firefox version?

#include&lt;stdio.h&gt;<p>int main() { int array[] = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5}; int *ptr; ptr = a; ptr++;<p><pre><code> return 0; </code></pre> }<p>This won&#x27;t compile, but the answer says it should be 2
