Geography
The district is located in the Balkhash-Alakol Depression. Parts of its eastern border (where the district borders on East Kazakhstan Region) run through the chain of lakes - Lakes Sasykkol, Koshkarkol, Alakol, and Zhalanashkol. There are no major rivers in the district; the fairly small Tentek River, which flows toward Lake Sasykkol, but reaches it only intermittently, is the largest one.
gollark: Oh, one common operation is "cursor to 1,1 and clear terminal".
gollark: No, generate n random bytes. It's niche but I have actually had programs need that oddly frequently.
gollark: I also use "generate random bytes" oddly often. That may just be me.
gollark: Also map/filter/whatever, though Luadash does that.
gollark: Stuff like `fread` (my terrible name for "read file to string"), `fwrite` (write string to file), `fetch` (send GET request to given HTTP address and return string result), `copy` (deep-copy a table), etc.
