@aescling we must have a normal clodsire emojo without the hat or else report
I encountered a fun coding challenge while programming today.
Suppose you are teaching a class and you brought with yourself a bag of candy to hand out to your students. You want to hand out every piece of candy, but do it in a way that disperses the candy provided to each student as evenly as possible. No student should have more than 1 extra piece of candy than any other student. Exactly which students get the extra pieces of candy does not matter.
Task: Write a function that takes N students and M pieces of candy, where M > N, and returns an array of length N showing the amount candy given to each student.
Followup Task: Generate this array in O(N) time, where N is the number of students (NOT the amount of candy!)
I stitched two scripts together using python and it was weirdly annoying to do, when in bash it would have just been a simple one-liner with a command substitution
