From the product’s perspective, they can send or receive money anywhere in the world
Doesn’t this answer your own questions? What are you trying to solve here?
Based off of this logic, the answer is going to be yes
no matter what then.
You would have an easier time making a ‘blacklist’ of disallowed countries either outgoing or incoming than the former.
I get the problem may lie with currency stuff, but if the currency is the variable that defines an allowed or disallowed action, then there is no reason to ask any of the non-currency questions, nor the independent questions, because the answer will always be yes according to your statement until both the country
and currency
are defined.
Consider this logic flow:
- Which direction is the
vector
variable - incoming(<-)
or outgoing(->)
?
- What is the
country
we care about?
After this is defined, ask:
- Is
vector
to country
in blacklist?
If it is not, then:
- What is the
currency
that is being exchanged?
After this is defined, ask:
- Can
currency
be exchanged in country
going in vector
direction?
To answer this, a data structure, like a dictionary, holds these values like so:
- Whitelisted
vector
pairs - country
:currency
Whereby incoming and outgoing vectors are each their own dictionary. You could modify it slightly, there are different ways to do this. This is just an example.
Now, this is all well and good, but you need to understand some things here.
I’m unsure if you understand the sheer scope that makes this “product” near impossible to construct without getting yourself or your users in severe legal trouble without extensive, thorough research into each and every country’s financial regulations that you are trying to support. Again, this is fine for a little project or otherwise, but if you’re trying to make any kind of product or platform here, you are likely going to have exponentially more problems than this.
However, in my task, it really doesn’t matter where the user lives.
If this is for a legitimate product, then yes, it absolutely does. If you don’t believe so, then you do not have enough knowledge to build this product, because you will put your users in serious risk. This is why cryptocurrency exists; it bypasses the complexity of the exchange problem.
What’s important is just the country and currency of the person who is sending money to the user or receiving money from the user.
Not ‘or’, ‘and’.
My previous response wasn’t specifically talking about provider/platform
↔ user
, it was user
↔ user
.
If the answer is always going to be England
↔ country
:currency
, and if you can send or receive money anywhere, then you don’t have a problem.
If the entire reason you asked this question to begin with was to create a chat-like interface for the users of your platform, then it does matter where the user lives, and GPT cannot make an assumption of where the user lives, and the logic from my previous response still applies.
The user still needs to tell GPT where they live in order for it to provide the answer as I previously mentioned. If they don’t, then you don’t need to do any of this, you can just tell them “yes” and move on.
Nothing in this problem is 1-way: money flows between two points regardless. You need to take into account both endpoints, not just one.
