what am i doing with my life

idk

I have been productive

Clearly, I need to buy divinity and do a anti trihard playthrough with fire Kappa

trie

In the meantime, I need to run 100 mill iterations of a calculation

So, I am guessing I need to run 10 mil and not 100 mil when I hand this in Kappa

The only question now Pikachu is if it'll be an anti-tryhard run while still caring about the lore/plot

also, what in God's name needs to be simulated that many times?

My assignment it to make a program that approximates the Madelung constant for sodium

it is more accurate the more times you run my equation

Can the program just run a websearch and display a result?

needs to calculate it

this is a computational physics course, the point is making programs to run calculations

Google is kind of like a calculation

Try google when the result does not exist Kappa

I'm sure math is involved at some point

Pika needs to buy divinity for when we do DivinityRealms Notlive Kapap

I misunderstood the question

wasted 2.5 hours coding something that did not solve the question

okay, well, I think I may have fixed my issue in less that 10 minutes

which is great and dissapointing

because I basically rewrote the damn code from scratch

Kappa //

F U CK

That scared me

ha

forgot I was in this chat

bopit is pretty spooky Kappa

Need to approximate madelung's constant for NaCl

Been stuck for 2 hours

cannot figure out how to sum my shit

not working

I know that

restarting my computer

fml

I give up

will work on this tomorrow

do you want help?

Okay, do you know how to go from this

to getting a sum of all the values of M that this shit prints out

When I try making it an array, it tells me it is a 0d array and will not let me sum it, and I cannot figure out how to make it a non 0d array

np.zeros(1,1)

or just use a normal python array

do you need them individually or can you just sum them from the start?

I just need to sum them

to some large L

do M=0 before the for loops then where you are computing them do M += ?

no need to use an array

what is the ? supposed to be

your equation

Well, I am getting it to sum now

so thanks for that

but it seems to not be summing to the right value

so fml

Nvm

it was just printing the last M in the list

or rather the last m calculated

I might have been able to do this Kappa

Running a test with large L

will take 6 years to run this test

seems to be summing each individual thing and printing each individual sum Kappa

idk

Seems to only run each possible combination of i, j, k

minus 0,0,0 since I restricted that

correct value is -1.748 according to wikipedia

that is with L = 15, so it is working kind of

Just need to get it to only print the last value

permutations

order matters

it is a point in 3d space

yeah, if I can just get this thing to print the last calculated sum, I am good

Fucking liar
