  • Well, my brain seems to be affected by it according to that test (difference score of 11) if I interpret the scale correctly

    But well, I also got autism and quite a few other mental conditions and learned all my life to cope quite well with all my disabilities; that’s why I specifically outsource direction question to a visualization that make the answer more tangible for me than listening to my intuition.

    But well, what works for some doesn’t necessarily work for all. And probably my other conditions have some influence on it as well. We’re all different, after all; even if sharing a few traits.



  • I get that. My intuition often mixes both up, too.

    That’s why I trained myself to say “driver-side” and “passenger-side” in my head when left or right come up. To a point where I don’t even have to think about thinking about it. I just visualize which side of car is meant instead of the rather abstract concept of left and right

    Might not help you; but it helps me









  • the is_even package does not provide much worth indeed because it simply negates is_odd and thereby all its benefit.

    It’s dependency is_odd on the other hand provides at least some additional checks (it also checks if the value is a valid integer below the max int value)

    And while I would indeed see uses for such methods (especially with the other checks, no simple oneliners) in some cases, especially in testing: This is stuff you write yourself, throw it in a e.g. NumberUtils class and everything is fine. You do never depend on an external library for that. The benefit (not spending a few seconds to write it) does not outweigh any of the drawbacks that come with external libraries.







  • solution 1:

    numbers 1 to 10 on the first row
    arrow under 3 with text “smaller”
    arrow under 10 with text “bigger”

    solution 2:

    “10 has more numbers/digits”

    Both would be - imo - thinkable and sufficient solutions at quite young age.

    (keep in mind that this is before they get asked “is 5 divisible by 2” and “No” or “Only with remainder 1” are the expected answers.)
