Well, FME'ers

I put you up against two tough matches and you beat both of them. So for today's quiz I'm going back to the development teams, to see if they have better luck.

You have a 50% record against developers (beat Paul, lost to Shelley) so let's see how you do against Myles.

Myles represents the geometry team. They're the folks who get their hands dirty playing with coordinates. They love nothing better than working with weird geometries; like an island in a lake, that's on an island in a lake, that's on an island in a lake, that's on an island in a lake, that's on an island in a lake, that's on an island in a lake, etc, etc... Or the vertex normals of a self-intersecting, non-planar polygon boundary with a billion points, half of which are duplicates!

I believe that Myles has worked on the CenterLineReplacer, TopologyBuilder, and ChangeDetector transformers, to name but a few. So he knows his geospatial algorithms... but does he know about the rest of FME?

So... the link is the usual: https://demos-safe-software.fmecloud.com/fmeserver/apps/FMEQuiz - let's see how well you can do.

Last chance to take the quiz. I'm going to turn it off in about 30-60 minutes. If you have taken it already... do you know what the numbers in Q6 refer to? I wonder if anyone figured it out, or if it was truly an impossible question!

Glad it wasn't graded, as I did HORRIBLE!

I made an educated guess, but as I scored 4/6 I expect that was one that I got wrong...
