How difficult is it to break large kroner bills (200 or 500 kr) in Copenhagen?



I'm asking because I know it's very hard for a tourist to pay with 50 or 100 dollar bills in US; and some people didn't really enjoy breaking CAD$100 bills for me in Toronto, or even BOB$100 and BOB$200 in Santa Cruz de la Sierra.



Probably the currency exchange store will try to give me large bills when trading euros by kroner in Copenhagen, so I need to know what bill values are accepted by the locals.

    You can always go into a bank (inside opening hours) and have them excange your 500,- or 1.000,- kroner bills.

    Oh and to just warn anybody who tries it. Don't try to pay for your bus ticket with a 500 kr or 1.000 kr note. 200 kr is not that good an idea as well. If you buy your ticket in a shop at a station that is not a problem.

In my experience, 200 kr bills are not at all unusual and shouldn't give you any issues (unless you're buying something very cheap, like less than 20 kr, from a very small store). The 500 kr bill is more unusual, but it should be fine in larger stores and restaurants. Some smaller stores and restaurants may refuse them.

    This matches my experience (as a native). ATMs are wont to deliver 200 kr bills even when you withdraw amounts 500 kr or over. I sometimes do get 500 kr bills, but have never had any trouble using them for purchases over a few hundred kr. The 1000 kr bill is very rare.

The other answers already mention that breaking bigger notes in Denmark is not really a problem. But you can likely avoid getting big notes in the first place.



If you exchange the money in the country where it is the currency you can ask and should be given smaller notes. If not all, at least enough that you are not immediately stuck.

When you exchange money in your home country you will have less options when you ask for a certain kind of notes. You will then have to take what they have or leave without exchanging.



But check the cost of exchanging against using a card in the ATM and against using your card in shops and restaurants.

Using your card is often cheaper than traveling with cash and it has much less risk of losing all to pick pockets.



There are tricks to get money out of the ATM without getting too big notes.

Like going to a machine where you can select the notes they deliver. And asking for an amount which is smaller than the big note you want to avoid.

And most ATM do not give notes that will be too big.

    I haven't seen a ATM where you cannot decide the size of the notes in a long time. If it is low on 100,- kr notes it might not give you a choice but this is a rare occurence.

It is getting less and less common to pay cash at all in all Scandinavian countries, so you may be given a strange glance no matter which bill you choose to pay with. Except for that, I wouldn't expect any problems paying with larger bills.

    @Bent I've never seen an ATM give a choice of what notes I'll receive, in any country that I've lived in or visited, so even mentioning that such things exist is news to me.

    In my country (the Netherlands) some banks do, on all their machines, other banks never do. I have seen it abroad as well, but I do not remember how it was in Denmark.

    @DavidRicherby: In my unscientific experience Danish ATMs offer this choice roughly half of the time. Some will give you the choice only if you type in the amount you want on the keypad instead of selecting one of the standard amounts earlier in the dialogue.

It is getting less and less common to pay cash at all in all Scandinavian countries, so you may be given a strange glance no matter which bill you choose to pay with. Except for that, I wouldn't expect any problems paying with larger bills.

  • Actually in Denmark you can get into a situation where they refuse 500 kr or 1.000 kr notes.

Create new schema in PostgreSQL using DBeaver

Image
0 At the beginning of my current job I had limited access to DB but recently my role is changed to superuser, admin, and owner. My colleague who was the previous DB admin is able to create a schema or change the permissions as there is a permission tab in the properties and he can change permissions by clicking easily. Would you please let me know how I can create schema and change permissions as well? Why his dbeaver looks different from me? He can easily right click on the schema folder on top of all schemas on the left side column and select create new schema while I do not have that, like the following picture I found on the internet. postgresql database-schema dbeaver share | improve this question

Deepest pit of an array with Javascript: test on Codility

Image
0 $begingroup$ This is the question from a Codility test, as a task in an interview: DeepestPit - problem description A non-empty zero-indexed array A consisting of N integers is given. A pit in this array is any triplet of integers (P, Q, R) such that: ·         0 ≤ P < Q < R < N; ·         sequence [A[P], A[P+1], ..., A[Q]] is strictly decreasing, i.e. A[P] > A[P+1] > ... > A[Q]; ·         sequence A[Q], A[Q+1], ..., A[R] is strictly increasing, i.e. A[Q] < A[Q+1] < ... < A[R]. The depth of a pit (P, Q, R) is the number min {A[P] − A[Q], A[R] − A[Q]}. For example, consider array A consisting of 10 elements such that: A[0] = 0 A[1] = 1 A[2] = 3 A[3] = -2 A[4] = 0 A[5] = 1 A[6] = 0 A[7] = -3 A[8] = 2 A[9] = 3 Triplet (2, 3, 4) is
