Zero effort

While I do think the question is on-topic for SO, I think it shows zero effort.

To demonstrate, let's take a part of the original question and reword it, just a little bit. I have replaced "algorithm" with "c# code":

So, how is this related to Stack Overflow? I want an algorithmc# code to decide who's going to buy the croissants next week.

  • The chosen person should be pseudo-random
  • No one should buy the croissants twice in a row
  • Generally speaking, everyone should buy croissants as many times as the others

Now the difficulty is that some of us can be absent during a week or two. Or just this Friday. And the next week, it's another. It's a company with people having vacation, and we have customers or off-days. Hence simple sorting is not good enough.

Would the changed question above be on-topic for SO? I don't think so. It sure looks like a "give me teh codez" question to me. For this reason, I voted to keep the question closed on the review queuevoted to keep the question closed on the review queue.

What Is The Precedent For Questions That Demonstrate Little Effort?

Take a look at these meta questions, about "give me teh codez":

I'm sure there are more. The general conclusion in the above links is that questions that show little effort are closed.

My point is

The question shows little effort. Close it.
