None of you have obviously ever read Peanuts.

Watch it be B that Charles Shultz lifted it from. hype

Guess is still D

Well I was right that Peanuts got it from there then. One of the characters would always type a novel starting with that line.

This crossover between two of Christie's characters included Poirot as one of the sleuths.

A pushdown automaton is described as accepting which class of languages?

A: Context-free languages
B: Context-sensitive languages
C: Natural languages
D: Regular languages

B?

I'm going to guess A. Reasoning: both A and B seem to be ... more descriptive, I think, than C and D. And I'd expect something described as an to act without thinking; interpreting context requires thinking. (Plus, Nancy guessed B, so I can't.)

I think Farren is right, but if not, then D.

A is correct. A pushdown automaton can recognize regular languages as well as every regular language is also a context-free language, but I asked for the best description.

In , which of these would a player expect to accomplish by utilizing the

A: The kovarex process launches a series of rockets at a designated target, destroying everything within a 20-tile radius.
B: The kovarex process creates assembler machines, capable of manufacturing a wide variety of materials and products without human intervention.
C: The kovarex process refines uranium-238 into the harder-to-find uranium-235, needed for nuclear power.
D: The kovarex process is an inside joke, referring to transporting resources primarily via logistical robots, even when other methods would be more efficient.

B

B is incorrect. While assembler machines are very much an important part of the game and behave exactly as described, there is no "kovarex automation process."

C?

C is correct!

There are rockets in the game that can blow things up (including atomic bombs), but none of them are tied to the kovarex process. Atomic bombs use U-235 and thus benefit from having kovarex researched, but the process is not named the annihilation process, and it doesn't directly make the bombs.

The inside joke is completely fictional.

The kovarex enrichment process is primarily used to refine U-238 into U-235; researching it directly allows the production of nuclear fuel and is practically necessary to run nuclear power (which runs on U-235 - good luck getting enough without kovarex).

Nancy, you're up!

Whoah, I apparently either have a real talent for guessing or figuring out which of the answers makes the most likely sense because I had absolutely no freaking clue otherwise.

I decided to pick C because you said it was a game and for some reason, I thought C made the most sense as a game mech. Had it not been an actual game you were referencing, I probably would have just in essence done the equivalent of metaphorically flipping a 3 sided coin.

Let's revive this.

Is that an official guess of C?
