How I wrote an algorithm that converts DISC to MBTI (UltraBot Command)

 Hey everyone! Today I wanted to talk about something I made in UltraBot about a month ago at this point that converts your indigo DISC scores into MBTI personalities. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, don't worry. Everything will be explained!What is DISC?DISC is a personality score (yes, I'm a bit of a personality type nerd) given to you on the Indigo Assessment. My school recently had us take this test for a class, but sadly you'll have to pay $100 to take it on your own. However, it included personality scores in 4 catagories:D - Dominance. How directly you talk to people and how much control you want.I - Influence. Your influence...

The future of UltraBot #1: JSON parsing

 While procrastinating on my Sonic 3 & Knuckles review, I would like to introduce multiple new commands using APIs and JSON parsing!I recently discovered that BDScript has the ability to parse JSON and then extract the key values into a message, which means APIs!This uses BDScript 2 only. After performing a GET command on a URL (in the form of $httpGet[]) you can recieve text from there and since that text is usually JSON, you use $jsonParse to parse that code, which gives you access to the JSON keys which you can extract data from to use in a bot response. This is how most public APIs work and I'm constantly making new commands in UltraBot thanks to them. I always take that data and wrap it up in a neat functional little embed.So, I'm starting something new. If there is a specific...
