Coding Challenges

Question

Write a code where a user can input their house size and the code returns the chance of a lightning strike hitting the house in a city that is 200 square kilometers(hint: you need to find out how much area a lightning strike affects)

Answer 1

thought so. it seems more like a math problem than a coding one. once you have a formula the language you use is a bit redundant

Answer 2

mmhmm Yeah that what I am trying to say. It wont be hard to code at all. The hard part is coming up with the algebra. thus more of a math problem. I get it. it is a cool challenge. But not really a coding one imho

Answer 3

math challenge?

Answer 4

@jay there is a good amount of math involved

Answer 5

@jay, i want a formula found and then a code so the user wont have to do math or plug things in other than the house size, let the code do all the math

Answer 6

use maths

probability =

(area of house in sq kms) / (200)

code yourself .......

its easy if i am right
