Using Winrar and Zip to Upload Hundreds of Photos

To upload a large number of photos as a .zip archive to a website, users can utilize tools like WinRAR, WinZip, or 7-Zip. The process typically involves highlighting the desired files, right-clicking, and selecting the "add to archive" option, where users can then choose to compress the files into a .zip format. It's important to note that the website in question only accepts .zip files, not .rar files. For those who prefer command-line options, 7-Zip and pkzip for Windows are available as alternatives. Despite these tools being effective, many users find them confusing, particularly in understanding how to create new archives versus adding to existing ones.

This tool is frustratingly confusing nonetheless...

I've been experimenting with ChatGPT. Some results are good, some very very bad. I think examples can help expose the properties of this AI. Maybe you can post some of your favorite examples and tell us what they reveal about the properties of this AI. (I had problems with copy/paste of text and formatting, so I'm posting my examples as screen shots. That is a promising start. :smile: But then I provided values V=1, R1=1, R2=2, R3=3 and asked for the value of I. At first, it said...
