NeoPets Riddles (Lenny Conundrums) and Answers Here

The only real math is adding XD the rest is just using online converters.

You should get jibberish a mix of numbers and letters

The jibberish answer i got ended with bwr.0
XO

it ends with BWR. Don't post anything else about the answer besides if you got this.

We got the same answer then.

So i dont put it the .o at the end.
Ok, good sending in

Actually, I sent you a PM about it. I sent mine in slightly before that PM. It took me 5 minutes. Literally, for me it was =b2b(36, 10, $A1) in B2, =pfactorize($B2) in C2, and =IF(LEN($C2)=0,0,LEN(TRIM($C2))-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(TRIM($C2)," ",""))+1) in D2. Then Just checking the Pet Central for all species on my other computer (for speed).

After that, I just had to sort a couple times and =(Absolute Address) for 3 boxes. =SUM(Range), and a last =b2b(10, 36, SUM(Range)) and there was my answer.

All in all, I would say about 5 minutes from looking at the question to getting the answer. I really don't know when the question came out though. I mentioned my final tomorrow? That was what I was doing until I hit my break and remembered to check neopets. lolz.

Will it be wrong if I added .0 onto the end of BWR?

Thanks for the compliment, but I need to redo it, since I had multiplied the three numbers instead of adding them. Okay, my revised attributes of my answer:
1. 7 digits long
2. Start and end digits are not both numbers or both letters
3. 4 letters and 3 numbers

Still leaves millions of possibilities.

It would not be wrong, but i think TNT would count it as a bad answer

Yes. I don't know why the converter puts a decimal in there, but the .0 is INCORRECT

I dont know how to use online converters because I dont use them

Maybe they're trying floating point conversions? =P (Oh no! My final is bleeding into my thoughts, AAAGGGHHHH!)

lol! Nooooooooooo .

These are actually the kind of Lenny's I like since they are so straight-forward. The problem is finding them quickly enough after they are posted. And, yes, they do require some math understanding to be able to get them easily.

That is definitely my problem. I have NEVER seen a Lenny Conundrum after only minutes of it being out. It's usually 15 or 30 minutes before I realize it is there. =P

They do do floating point conversions! Try converting 1.9 from base 36 to base 10. They always add a trailing zero, it appears. They get round-off error after about 14 digits, when converting from base 36 to base 10, based on computing 1.C.

lolz. At least I know I'm learning from my studying now. Hahahaz.

I think my answer was submitted between 1 hour and 1 hour 10 minutes after LC came up today. I have no idea how likely it will be to get top 10 or top 250 with that time. =P I always see questions late which is why I'm not usually top 10, but I am usually in top 250.

umm.... 2.. Even & prime!

the only exception... besides zero!
