"Мартышка к старости слаба глазами стала"

[dmm]

Что делать, если в упор не видишь, чем отличаются две строчки друг от друга? Надо спросить GPT-4!

(А недавно она меня научила, как делать immutable programming в Питоне (без этого autodiff in JAX не будет правильно работать). Сделала довольно несовершенные, но в целом правильные наброски, а я вообще не знал там, с какой стороны к делу подойти. И никто не научит, потому что не совсем обычная задачка.)

ME: What is the difference between string "arxiv-1606-09470-section3" and string "arxiv-1606-09740-section3". I don't see it visually, but Julia says: julia> "arxiv-1606-09470-section3" == "arxiv-1606-09740-section3"
false

GPT-4: The difference between the two strings "arxiv-1606-09470-section3" and "arxiv-1606-09740-section3" lies in the numbers 09470 and 09740, specifically the middle digits. In the first string, the number is 09470, while in the second string, the number is 09740.

If you look closely, you'll see:

* In the first string, after 1606, it's 09470.
* In the second string, after 1606, it's 09740.

The numbers 09470 and 09740 are different, so Julia correctly reports that the strings are not equal.

and I ended up writing this code:

And here is another conversation, for a more pedestrian difficulty:

(Yes, my "September" has started a bit early.)
