CODE CHALLENGE ANSWER - PYTHON--- BUT GRRRR SEE below... lol See LINKS/Git pics for answer---- I guess im not smart because I didn't understand the VERBIAGE at first right?
------------------------
------------------------
---The provided code stub reads two integers from STDIN, a and b. Add code to print three lines where:
The first line contains the sum of two numbers.
The second line contains the difference of the two numbers (first – second).
The third line contains the product of two numbers.
Example a = 3 b = 5 Print the following: 8 -2 15

ISSUE I HAVE? Hackerrank sucks at explaining stuff..... they start by giving you started code. if you use it, its wrong!
--the following is provided by hackerrank
-- if __name__ == '__main__':
-- a = int(input())
-- b = int(input())

--WHAT IS THIS CRAP? why even give us any starting code, it's confusing. and asks for the user to give INPUT... BUT we are suppose to USE 3 & 5 !!!!!! of auto STDIN standardin
--I can tell you a = int(input()) means Variable A is a integer and get the input from the keybord
--but it doesn't even display a message or instruction on input... like really? you will never see that in the real world, ever.

CODE CHALLENGE ANSWER = PYTHON ---
two strings, S1 and S2, the task is to find the
of the Longest Common Subsequence, i.e.
subsequence present in both of the strings.
longest common subsequence (LCS) is defined
the longest subsequence which is common in
given input sequences.

CODE CHALLENGE ANSWER - ya you make me feel like my time and money spent in college was a WASTE of time by asking me to CODE TEST! so HERE'S the answers! PYTHON

write a program to find whether a string has balanced parentheses or not. idea, use stack, when open, push it in a stack, when closed match the top of the stack and pop it if empty stack, return balance otherwise unbalanced.

Being a Developer is also mastering other technological areas. Microsoft, recently pushed out an update that can kill or render a machine useless. GOOD JOB MICROSOFT. I’m a daily linux user, but my kid’s a gamer and does remote school….. AKA Windows user. During class, his gaming righ Blue screen of Death and he came to me, HELP!

KB5035853 – released for updates and autoupdates March 2024.

Issue, Windows 11 AUTOUPDATE feature, installed the update and rendered his machine useless. NOT an easy fix. I spent an hour of 2, check for malware/viruses, root kits, check hdd for bad sectors, scan and repair the file system, couldn’t even system restore. DEAD machine.

The horror, doing all of that work, then reinstalling windows 11 about 9 times for it to auto BSOD AND DIE because windows is AUTO UPDATING during installation. Hours of life wasted, he needs his PC for today/school. During login, it was a spinning circle and clearly showed stuck at performing security update.

FIX, I realized, backup his data to 2nd hdd, format primary drive, clean install of windows 11, on windows 11 boot, sign in and follow prompts to setup the machine.

AS SOON as the machine boots windows 11 GUI, head to settings, updates and PAUSE updates for 5 weeks. ←-- this stops the PC from auto updating the killer update

NOW, the PC works! Instantly, I launch windows services.

press the Windows key, type services, and then press Enter when you see it

Press the Windows + R keys on your keyboard to open the Run window. Type services.msc and hit Enter on your keyboard or click/tap the OK button.

DISABLE Windows auto update service.

Scroll down, find the service, go into properties, STOP the service, then DISBALE IT.

BAM FIX…….

I spent another hour, migrating his data back, reinstalling his APPS and STEAM/GAMES and he was GOOD TO GO. Told my kid, lets wait a good 3 months, before we turn AUTOUPDATES back on again. Yes, I manually installed the latest of everything he needed; .net services, drivers from the manufacture website….. nvidia.com etc……

well i just installed windows 11 pro, legally activated on a 1st gen 10 year... 11 year old laptop, yes it runs fast as hell, this laptop is a core i7, ssd, 16gbram etc.... just amazing to put life into a older machine for someone else....

Older Dell Precision M6500

if yall need help or wanna know how let me know.....

Ahh yes... give life to your really old laptops/pcs and bring them up to date..... redoing ye old.... not so old... laptop to upgrade my version of Ubuntu from 18 to 22.... I didnt even realize they came out with 22... heck there was a version 20 i didnt bother to check!!!!

Gonna be nice to not use BLOATFILLED windows.....
Always running slow because its updating everday, restrating right in the middle of work...
Always getting spyware and virused just using the internet to read the news....

anyway, set windows 11 to safemode, reboot, enter bios, change intel rst/irst to ACHI (you dont need this old tech in todays world) reboot to windows... it loads on achi, turn off safe boot, reboot to normal mode, achi drivers kick in, install ubuntu 22 and enjoy your dual boot system or replace windows if ya want.

----- Instructions to swap IRST to ACHI

Click the Start Button and type cmd
Right-click the result and select Run as administrator
