minus-squarestoly@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up17arrow-down9·2 years agoI wonder if day length is given separately in a table prior to the question? I’m not sure what they wanted except maybe seconds?
minus-squareAkrenion@programming.devlinkfedilinkarrow-up85·2 years agoIt’s the length of the string. The number of characters is 6. It’s a play on words and a question.
minus-squareCar@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up20·2 years agoI’m assuming they wanted the literal length of the string
minus-squarezarkanian@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 years agoNaw, they wanted the metaphorical length. Computers are great at metaphors.
minus-squareCrazyEddie041@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up11·2 years agoConversations about language aside, the error is that “Monday” is a string with a length of 6.
minus-squarenathanjent@programming.devlinkfedilinkarrow-up4arrow-down2·2 years agoWhat is the type of the variable day though? As it is we have to make multiple assumptions, based on popular programming languages, about the internals of the string type and the print function to assume that it prints “6”.
minus-squareripcord@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·2 years agoThere is a fairly good chance that there has been more info presented in the class than we have been given here.
minus-squaremorrowind@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 years agoThat’s the variable name, not the type

Oh wow. Thanks

That seems to be the consensus.
