<description>firstly that's plain wrong and secondly that's 4 decimal places and not significant figures which would be 12.35</description>

<description>I have tried xor and rotation backed with comparations with a lot of known file formats without result.
Is the same transformation applied to all bytes, I mean if the first byte is xored with 0x55, all are xored with 0x55 ?
The result file should be a well known type or just a bunch of bytes with a text inside somewhere ?
And one more question, is just a single basic transformation applied or a combination of transformations ?</description>

<description>I know the answer but it is not acepted. I have rounded the answer to 4 decimals, like 12.3456.
Am I missing something ?</description>

<description>A B C D E and F are all points on the triangle.

AB,BC,AB and CA are lines segments on the triangle (AB is the segment from A to B).
D E and F are points on the triangle ABCA, e.g. the point E lies on AB, D on AC and F CB.

the only lengths you are given are:
AB = 7
CD = DE = EF = FC = 1

the only mentioned angle in the challenge is thetasym but you have to figure it out yourself.

you might be getting confused between the points ABCDEF and the variables abcdef which are just numbers (integers I assume) that when throwen into the given function is equal to thetasym</description>

<description>Do the variables ABCDEF represent side lengths, angles, or what? I'm confused.</description>

<description>Although it's very much not what should be done, I can't actually see why that doesn't work. None the less, wrap variables in {}, and for SQL's sake at least 'reason' should be in apostrophes.

And then, when it's working, don't do it at all. Learn about properly sanitizing user input before wrapping it in SQL.

You're using PHP, I'm guessing it's MySQL, and I'm guessing it'll support PDO. Look into using placeholders with PDO.</description>
