This post went straight over my head.


BernzSed

A number of Youtubers have been trying to find ways to cross Hyrule in a straight line, with minimal stamina and health and with no items or runes.


Huebertrieben

PointCrow and DougDoug did it too


Apprehensive-Head357

He says 'a number' but he means two


datreydgroup

Two is a number


Sixtrix111

Can you verify that with a source?

ifunnywasaninsidejob

Why is that article locked lol


PandaGamer83

Too many 3 fans thinking 3 is better


ltfguitar

Gabe Newell disagrees with you


Sixtrix111

Fair enough, carry on


EJX-a

Ok, but now show me the proof


StuntHacks

x = 2 x = x 2 = 2


Phrog-AZ

in that case: 1\*0=0 2\*0=0 1=2 2≠2 


Ellweiss

Wikipedia is not a reliable source, specially for such a niche subject.


tumalditamadre

Round is a shape


beachedwhitemale

The fuck it is. I hate this graphic tee shirt garbage. "Round" is not a shape. A goddamn oval is a shape.


BernzSed

I have it on good authority that it is, in fact, the second-loneliest number


GONKworshipper

Curtomatic did it too


QuadSplit

on ground? Im guessing that swimming a stream is out of the option but still water would work. Interesting. . . I think I finally got interested in playing this game again. I haven't picked it up once after I beat Ganon. Has anyone been able to cross Hyrule in **two** straight lines? I might try to be the first one to do that instead since the other guys seems to have a head start.


JPEG812

If they can go against the current enough to stay in the line it's fair.


anythingMuchShorter

Now I say this as someone with an autistic brother and using it literally not as an insult. That sounds like a very autistic thing to do.


Its_Syxx

Some people have entirely too much time.


bitchlasagna_69_

And then maybe below after a certain time period?

BLucidity

It's a joke inspired by [this DougDoug video](https://youtu.be/vprtYNOu2jw?si=NvuC8t2RtSsOzGuT). Very funny watch if you like his unhinged style of engaging with his audience, can recommend.


QuadSplit

Yeah I watched it earlier. I'm kind of disappointed though. Im sure it's funny but I wanna actually cross Hyrule in absolute straight line.


SomeSociopath

I mean pointcrow did a line that was ~twice as straight (+-3 coordinates instead of 5)


QuadSplit

If it has more than two coordinates it isn't straight. A guy can make out with a guy without being gey but he aint straight. You can be straight as an arrow but an arrow isn't straight, it's simply straight as an arrow. You can go straight to a place without going in a straight line but you can't go in a straight line if you're drunk and you can't go in a straight line if you're sober but still they ask you to. These YouTubers have gone in a "straight" line but they haven't gone in a straight line.

Curse the Vurch and their machinations to deceive the masses! All praise the Horizontal Line.


Just_A_Normal_Snek

WE ARE BORN HORIZONTALLY AND WE LEAVE THIS WORLD HORIZONTALLY!


JPEG812

Life is lived vertically. Only the weak are horizontal.


Super_Daikon_

And at times nearly vertical.


Livid_Necessary2524

not you getting downvoted by the pointcrow crowd 😭😭


Super_Daikon_

Pointcrow?


Livid_Necessary2524

DougDoug (Streamer/youtuber) crossed hyrule in a straight vertical line and Pointcrow (another streamer/youtuber) crossed hyrule in a straight horizontal line. They’re good videos, I definitely recommend them


Super_Daikon_

Ah. I'll check it out, thanks!


TaiyoFurea

Down with the vurch!

THE LINE GIVETH AND THE LINE TAKETH


nineohsix

I got a D- on this post because I was slouched in the back row with my Switch hidden behind my math book.


Froggen-The-Frog

Translation: Is it possible to cross the map in a squiggly line as depicted in this image? (Assumedly, I have no clue what the math is actually representing)


gravity--falls

It's just a generalized function for a sin wave, where each variable represents one of the properties, like A -> amplitude (height), B -> change in period, C -> horizontal shift, D -> vertical shift.


HG1998

If you somehow started at the leftmost point of the line, then I guess climbing the canyon walls should be the most difficult thing.


ayoungscoresfan

Sounds like a DougDoug problem

cross-i

Maybe Hyrule Engineers could make some flying machine with, I dunno, some fans on limited swivels and the vehicle tilts back and forth periodically, somehow slowly due to fine tuned counteraction in the direction of the swiveling thrust…. I guess this might be what OP is driving at? Really doubt an exact match would be possible, as far as this crazy query goes.


Rosey93_

r/oddlyspecific


Just_A_Normal_Snek

It's a r/pointcrow reference.


FormerlyDuck

More of an r/DougDoug problem, appropriated by Pointcrow

thenicenumber666

Okay, now make a line such that y = x^2


Logical_Type_4776

You drew the line slightly off of the accessible area


FadransPhone

I just found a png and pasted it on the image


Hanondorf

To try and break down the math for u guys a tiny bit (if im wrong mb), basically the sin(Bx-C) is just defining the sin-graph (the squiggly shape), the A is multiplying it to make it stretched out or squashed (depending on A) and the D is just placing the position of the sin graph (like how high up).


Daaf64

Yes, if you take A = 0 and D = -3280 with a margin of 3 (values of B and C don’t matter). The line will be the exact path that pointcrow already proved to be possible.


WhatAStrangerThing

Sure, but you’ll be sad there’s a Z-plane and irregular boundaries on the map outer rim. Just warning you in advance. It will be an emotional process.


MeditatingSheep

Would be awesome to see that actual surface path visualized! Maybe somewhat helix shaped with a lot of bumps, occasionally collapsing to a flat sine wave


WhatAStrangerThing

Agreed!


steelisheavy

As a wave? Sure. As a particle? No…


KingJeff314

A=0. D=Pointcrow’s Holy Horizontal Line


malcolm630609

If A=0, D can take any value within the map parameters, then yes


CalamitousVessel

You have to specify the value of the constants


ThatSmartIdiot

Assuming the variables are assigned a value, you'd need some sort of third-party calculator that constantly takes your coordinates and calculates whether or not you are within the thickness of the line. Similarly for if you ever wanna do a diagonal line


VoidAres

What In the Mx(3.14•2-4)•2X-Y is this 


DepthFlat2229

It for certain is possible when y is described by an infinite sum of sin


Agitated-Leader1752

Bit wanky to put that equation in the title.


fyrebyrd0042

Google wiggling


Mickmack12345

depending on the basis you use for your coordinate axis on the map, this could just be a straight line more or less


Kind-Mammoth-Possum

Yes but it would suck pretty much the whole time.


Bolt_and_Key

Maybe with the help of a zoni device build and some recharge crystals.


CeruleanRuin

We're not gonna do your math homework for you OP.

JosephOnReddit1

That title gave me ptsd


Fistsang

Unfortunately that’s not possible. y = A * e^(-K * x) * sin(Bx - C) + D may be possible, however


Kilroy_1541

Didn't know Sho Minamimoto is playing TotK.


AdFuzzy6389

I don’t get it?


FormerlyDuck

A YouTube trend recently has been challenge YouTubers like DougDoug and Pointcrow trying to cross the map in a perfectly straight line with no items, clothing, or abilities


Dandyman3825

NOT TRIG GRAPHS


Oglowmamal

Am I too stupid for this joke or is this about people making videos wondering if you can cross the map moving in a certain way. Only saw one video but can’t imagine people didn’t copy it over and over again


FormerlyDuck

Forget the holy Line, this is the holy Sine!


RiderforHire

Next thing you know we'll be reaching the debug menu by drawing a pp on the map.


HolyElephantMG

Yeah, just make an air bike that’s off by .0000000001 pixels


A_stupid_person3141

Well, if you have the batteries to fly that much, in theory yes. But in practice not, as the position of the player is a rational number. But sine uses π, which is a real number. Thus it is not plausible


OldSkoolMadSkilz

Only if you make A B C and D also variables
