Rikki bot complains about for loops on Ruby accumulate exercise #3338
Comments
Hmmm... While I'm all for the fundamentals and believe However, rikki's comments are just suggestions and abiding by them is totally up to you. |
Though "map" is on the "restricted list" for that exercise specifically... after the initial solution, I have been guilty of exploring different approaches related but using that forbidden method. The I do think that some feedback may indeed be candidates to be excluded from some exercises though, perhaps this one, maybe not... I can place that in the "rikki" repository to explore this... |
Ah okay. Thanks for the info. That makes more sense then. This should be pretty easily solvable on either the rikki or ruby-analyzer side. |
I wonder if we should also make sure to only complain about something once for a given exercise, so that people can explore but not get nagged to death by a comment that they've decided to ignore. |
There was a recent "nag" that happened 3 times, because the exerciser did not understand (though stated they had made the change) that it was not what they thought it was. The terminology was clear, just not yet having the knowledge in the language. Perhaps it would be helpful to have Rikki show the lines effected? |
That is not a trivial change, as far as I can tell. |
No, I don't think it would be trivial... |
I'm adding the design research label to this, as I think this is part of a much larger discussion about bots. |
I'm taking a pass through our issue tracker with the goal of making sure that every open issue we have on exercism/exercism.io is actionable. As this issue stands it isn't actionable. If you would like to move this topic forward, please open a new issue in http://github.com/exercism/discussions Please:

It looks like this is still open on exercism/DEPRECATED.rikki#27, so I'll assume it's being pursued there. |
Oh, nice. Yepp, that's the right place for it. Thanks! |

The feedback Rikki provided on my implementation (http://exercism.io/submissions/839cb740b3a6498f9e3ca10f9784a3be) was:
I'm well aware of
.each
, but didn't use it for accumulate because it seems like cheating to me -.map
(the 'real' Ruby name of this method) is just each + a passed-in function to transform with. I thought it would be nice to get a little more fundamental.Can Rikki skip certain types of comments on certain exercises?
