Hey Yea Forums. I'm a programmer and mathematician looking for a little bit of help from fellow programmers who use Stack Overflow. Last week I had a programming interview and was given a challenge. During that interview, I was told that reading base was not a useful skill at the company and the interviewer told me what I wanted to do wasn't possible and that the only solution was recursion.
That being said, I appear to be the only person who solved this problem mathematically using base. I really believe my answer is the best solution to the problem and that if the interviewer had a brain like mine, maybe he would have supported my idea.
So I'm here to make a trade. If I can get 100 upvotes on my answer, I'll post a bot coded in PHP that will allow you to automatically scrape images from Yea Forums based on keywords. It took me only a couple hours to make but works beautifully and may be of use to anyone who loves collecting images from Yea Forums. The bot is a 14.6KB PHP file that can be executed on any operating system and because you're receiving source code, you can verify that it is safe.
Here is a link to my answer. If you're a programmer going for an interview, this may be the kind of question you're asked to solve. Thank you for your support.
