10:29:30FromDiscord<b0rsuk> In reply to @gesee37 "look at the module": I ended up spelling all these values manually, but yes `toSeq` can convert things `@` cannot.
10:32:32FromDiscord<b0rsuk> The compiler is probably smart enough to turn `const toSeq({'0'..'9', 'X"})` into an array.
10:32:49FromDiscord<b0rsuk> (edit) "'X"})`" => "'X'})`"

11:28:21FromDiscord<b0rsuk> It's interesting that sets don't support indexing but they appear to be ordered in some way. I mean `X` ends up being last in this case. I don't know how that works.

14:15:45FromDiscord<_timurski> In reply to @b0rsuk "It's interesting that sets": I mean you have to have some ordering in the end
14:15:56FromDiscord<_timurski> (edit) "In reply to @b0rsuk "It's interesting that sets": I mean you have to have some ordering in the end ... " added "at the end of the day"
14:16:06FromDiscord<_timurski> it being a set means there's no guarantees on that orfer
14:16:15FromDiscord<_timurski> In reply to @b0rsuk "The compiler is probably": which is why I think this solution is really quite bad
14:16:29FromDiscord<_timurski> to be honest I don't really get the point of many of these exercises you're doing
14:16:50FromDiscord<_timurski> or maybe just this one and something I've seen before
14:17:12FromDiscord<_timurski> small language features like this really aren't very important
16:09:30FromDiscord<b0rsuk> In reply to @_timurski "which is why I": I can change one line in the program to make it a const string and then there's a guarantee.
16:11:48FromDiscord<b0rsuk> You never know what you're going to learn in the next exercise. For instance I'm very used to Python's immutable strings, so working with mutable strings is a different skill set. There are some very simple algorithms worth knowing such as "reverse a string". `result = char + result`. The last time I've seen this was when programming Java years ago and I forgot about it.
16:12:32FromDiscord<b0rsuk> In the absolute worst case, learning programming takes the place that playing puzzle games filled for me.

19:42:30Amun-Rathere are so edge cases in nim pre 2.4.0 when you couldn't modify a string without prepareMutation call first
