It's been a while (and everyone is well-rested after Advent Of Code!) so let's run another round of Code Golf.

Your task is navigating in a grid-like labyrinth in a clockwise spiral pattern. As it traverses the matrix, it collects characters, revealing a secret message.
Your challenge: find the shortest, most elegant code to decode this spiral cipher.
Input:
1. A multidimensional string array with comma separated characters (n x n)
2. Starting coordinates X and Y

Output:
The decoded message as a single string

We currently use a combination of Ghostscript and ImageMagick to accomplish our PDF requirements. These products are ceating memory/cpu issues when merging large PDFS. I am trying to find out if Intersystems Reports can handle our requirements (see below).

Hi Community,

This is a detailed, candid walkthrough of the IRIS AI Studio platform. I speak out loud on my thoughts while trying different examples, some of which fail to deliver expected results - which I believe is a need for such a platform to explore different models, configurations and limitations. This will be helpful if you're interested in how to build 'Chat with PDF' or data recommendation systems using IRIS DB and LLM models.

February 19, 2025 – Alert: SQL Queries Returning Wrong Results

InterSystems has corrected two issues that can cause a small number of SQL queries to return incorrect results. In addition, InterSystems has corrected an inconsistency in date/time datatype handling that may lead to different, unexpected – yet correct – results for existing applications that rely on the earlier, inconsistent behavior.

DP-436825: SQL Queries with Lateral Join May Return Wrong Results

Hello all,

We are currently developing a set of cubes in Unified Care Report (UCR) for data analysis purposes. However, we are encountering issues with cube dependencies, where certain cubes rely on others to be compiled beforehand. The complexity of these dependencies is becoming increasingly difficult to manage, particularly when attempting to deploy the cubes.

I am using an Apache webserver on RH8, which is working fine. However, I get the following message:

Directory /opt/webgateway/conf/temp/ does not exist or has incorrect permissions. This will limit the Web Gateway's functionality.

The folder is indeed missing, but in what way is it limiting functionality?

REST API with Swagger in InterSystems IRIS

Hello

The HTTP protocol allows you to obtain resources, such as HTML documents. It is the basis of any data exchange on the Web and a client-server protocol, meaning that requests are initiated by the recipient, usually a Web browser.

REST APIs take advantage of this protocol to exchange messages between client and server. This makes REST APIs fast, lightweight, and flexible. REST APIs use the HTTP verbs GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, and others to indicate the actions they want to perform.

Hey guys! I'm working on a Java application that connects to Iris via JDBC. I need to disable SharedMemory via connection URL. I would like to know how I can check if the parameter was turned on or off within Iris when connecting to Java. Thanks for your help!

Hi community,

I am having a hard time figuring out how to properly use %ZEN.Auxiliary.jsonProvider to serialize a %RegisteredObject to JSON. Would be anyone so kind to share some simple usage example?

Thanks
