Happy New Year to everyone everywhere!
My last post in 2019 is titled “.NET for Apache Spark – UDF, VS2019, Docker for Windows and a Christmas Puzzle“.
As the name implies, it contains a small puzzle related to Christmas. Were you able to find out, what it was about?
Well, here is the resolution.
As you might have guessed correctly, the key was the “coordinates.json” file.
Extracting the coordinates from the file and replacing semicolon with a comma, allows you to put the resulting coordinate-format directly into Google Maps for example.
37.2350540,-122.081146 37.2350540,-122.060310 37.2408218,-121.994064 37.2408218,-122.147392 37.2428550,-122.081031 37.2428550,-122.060424 37.2860870,-122.026237 37.2860870,-122.115730 37.2879524,-122.062522 37.2879524,-122.078933 37.3082962,-122.095893 37.3082962,-122.046585 37.3099899,-122.066757 37.3099899,-122.074699 37.3254203,-122.071983 37.3254203,-122.069641 37.3256340,-122.061843 37.3256340,-122.079612 37.3318748,-122.070770
What you will get, if you do this for all the coordinates, are the following location points, combined into one image.
All that is left now, is to connect the points in the correct order and, voila, a…
… Christmas Tree!
Thanks again to everyone who took part in the challenge and have a wonderful and happy new decade!
