Is this the world's ultimate swear word? Mathematician uses algorithm to create new offensive term
A mathematician has created an entirely new curse word based on a list of 186 offensive terms - and she said it is'the world's ultimate swear word. Sophie Maclean, a student at Kings College London, found'banger' is the supreme offensive term or'ber' for short. The researcher fed a list of popular'bad words' to a computer model, which then found the supreme word begins with the letter'b,' has four letters and ends in '-er.' Mclean found that when no inputs were given, the model made up words like'ditwat.' Most people have their favorite curse word, but a mathematician used their coding skills to create a new one deemed the world's ultimate swear word Maclean told BBC Science Focus: 'I think neither is as satisfying as a'f*ck' when you've stubbed your toe, or a'sh*t' when you realize you've forgotten your parent's birthday. But both feel like they could be quite good insults for people.'
