Sorry, but, mb, in lowercase? Like millibit?

“I implemented the FizzBuzz algorithm in only 10 million lines of code!”

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 years ago (1 children)
char* fizzbuzz(int n) {
    switch (n) {
        case 0: return "fizzbuzz";
        case 1: return "1";
        case 2: return "2";
        case 3: return "fizz";
        case 4: return "4";
        case 5: return "buzz";
        ...
    }
}

whatever we're calling the lowercase thing

  • M: "Mega": 1000^2
  • Mi: "Mebi": 1024^2
  • m: "Milli": 1000^-1
