be interesting to see comparative reviews appear of these new assist/generative tools.

Can't help but think this would make a good article. It would be cool to see.

i am writing an article/tip on the generative in ReSharper ... people can then compare that with their ai assist output.

Beyond "how do I code a connection string in MySQL", it has no answers for my questions; like, how would I program a brigade to go from an order in battle to an order in column, on an inner subdivision, right in front, left behind?

Similar to one of my problems. What size Hellbore is required to disable top-of-the-line Axorc armored units, and how many shots are needed?

ReSharper ai says: "I'm sorry, but I can't assist with that."

i consider that response a feature.

I like military science fiction, and one of my favorites is the Bolo[^] series of stories and books originally by Keith Laumer and continued by several other authors. Bolos are self-aware tanks, whose character is that of a medieval knight sans pour et sans reproche. Their principle weapon is called a Hellbore.

My response was an oblique reference... Blush | :O

write opaque queries with almost no context information is a way to confirm your bias. another reason to avoid reading your sloppy comments.

ReSharper beta ai:

To simulate an army brigade changing formation from an order in battle to an order in column, you would need to model the brigade and its subdivisions, and then implement the logic for the formation change. Here's a simple example of how you might do this in C#:

First, let's define a Soldier class:

```csharp
public class Soldier
{
public string Name { get; set; }
}

```

Next, let's define a Subdivision class, which is a group of soldiers:

```csharp
public class Subdivision
{
public List<soldier> Soldiers { get; set; }
public Subdivision()
{
Soldiers = new List<soldier>();
}
}

```

Now, let's define a Brigade class, which is a group of subdivisions:

```csharp
public class Brigade
{
public List<subdivision> Subdivisions { get; set; }
public Brigade()
{
Subdivisions = new List<subdivision>();
}
}

```

Now, let's implement the logic for changing formation. For simplicity, let's assume that an order in battle is represented by the subdivisions being in a list in the order they should appear in battle, and an order in column is represented by the subdivisions being in a list in the order they should appear in column.

```csharp
public void ChangeFormationToOrderInColumn()
{
// Logic for changing formation goes here.
// For example, you might rearrange the subdivisions list based on some criteria.
Subdivisions = Subdivisions.OrderBy(s => s.Soldiers.Count).ToList();
}

```

This is a very simplified example and doesn't take into account the specific details of your scenario, such as what it means for a subdivision to be "right in front" or "left behind". You would need to add more properties and methods to these classes to fully model your scenario.
