This is episode 5 of our animated series “Think Like A Coder.” This 10-episode narrative follows a girl, Ethic, and her robot companion, Hedge, as they attempt to save the world. The two embark on a quest to collect three artifacts and must solve their way through a series of programming puzzles.

Lesson by Alex Rosenthal, directed by Kozmonot Animation Studio.

198forest... 1984est. "1984", like the Orwell novel. Clever.

Unless it's a programming pun.

[timjack]

Honestly, I'm just here for the plot.

[eliotlong]

"Original Series by TEDEd" ooh I just got chills

[irage]

Everyone: 'I'm just here for the plot and animation."


Me: "No man I'm here for Luigi."

[معاذالدوسري-ثم]

Don’t mind me, I’m here for the animation

Hedge: (Can float.)
Also Hedge: (Worries about falling into the gorge despite the fact he can fly.)

Last time i was this early, ethic was still in prison.

Ted Ed - let's talk about coding.

Comments - That

1:42 When the locals are obsessed with self-portraits, but you're just looking for your bro.

Ok so wait, Octavia fell into the bottomless pit, but she’s just fine?

Is there anything better in this world than Ted-ed doing animation and explanation for a topic? No there is not. This is a universal statement.

[schrodingersman]

My solution was:
1)Start from the topmost leftmost box.
2)Paint red.
(Loop starts)
3)Turn right.
If yes(I mean if possible),
4)Turn right(I mean come down).
5)Paint red
If no,
6)Go to the bottom leftmost box.
7)Paint red.
8)Go to Step 3,
But if no,
9)End Programme.
The only problem is I do not know if this is correct and efficient.
So if wrong feel free to correct me.
BTW this programme is truly amazing, it makes me eagerly wait for each and every episode and solve the problem in my way. This programme generated immense interest in me towards computer programming.

Painting the diagonals is the optimal solution because it performs the least math and the least traversal.


Repeat N times: Paint, move down, move right
Paint, Move up n - 1 times
Repeat N times: Paint, Move left, move down
Paint, Done

[runkku]

I wait for these more than I wait for my paycheck

[ivangalazo]

I admit I'm not here for the programming stuff, I just want to know how the story would turn out

[kylayeet]

if you pause at 1:42 there’s a painting of Luigi. And because the paintings at the art sanctuary are paintings of peoples faces, does that mean Luigi is there!? 🤯🤭😱

[theslimeyboi]

1:41 Luigi is a canon character in this series
