so i'm new to programming, what the heck is a sleep sort and what's anon trying to accomplish?

Wrote an experimental disasembler, abstract assembly parser
Wrote a simple xpath-esque json value extractor
Leading a community for developers in my local area
Trying as hard as I can to fix the broken as fuck IT Infrastructure at a major health care provider
Mentoring college grads with experiments and challenges to help them be not-retarded
...
Some other stuff, I forget

The program will make a new thread for each parameter given to it and then wait for all threads to finish.

Each thread will sleep for a length of X, where X is the value of the parameter given to that thread.

When each thread completes it will print it's given parameter.

In this way it takes 1 second to print 1, 2 to print 2, etc.

If you gave the program 5, 3, 2, 4, 1 it would take 15 seconds and would print: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.

>>53205400
15 seconds? You mean 5?

Don't you mean process?
>>
>>53205448
Same meaning, defined differently in other languages.
>>
>>53205414
It sleeps for the size of the input parameter

If you fed it 10,000 it would sleep for 10,000 seconds

Contributed to a pretty early content management framework (Zope) back in the late 90s/early 2000s.
Wrote tools and a large swath of tutorials for modding Call of Duty 1 and Modern Warfare.
Wrote drivers for haptics devices.
Early proponent of WebRTC and web sockets which has set the foundation for a very large, well-known company's current technology focus/development.
Worked on a handful of pretty much unknown games. It paid bills.
Put yet-another-startup on silicon valley's map and then watched it burn to the ground as the head honcho lost like half of our investor's cash in Vegas. I found out what happened to the money years later.

I'd argue with you, but eh whatever

That should actually say interpreter, not parser (there was also a parser)

did 4chan have a software development board?
>>
>>53205556
I don't need you to argue, bitch. Threads are processes defined in context to a program. So while processes works fine as a descriptor, threads is more specific.
>>
>>53205627
There was a text only board in a time gone by called /prog/. If you wanted to discuss programming you want there.
>>
>>53205650
At this point I'd be insulting your ignorance and thoroughly correcting your understanding, but I really just don't care right now.

Have a nice night!

I'm willing to learn, therefore I kept the discussion going. My software dev knowledge is extense, but mainly done through experience and word of mouth, not textbooks.

I pioneered randomly generated lists to count through in order to pad loading times for no reason at all.

The thing is, it is actually not a correct sorting algorithm, since the sleep function will only sleep AT LEAST as long as you tell it to sleep.
That means, some numbers could "outsleep" others, making it incorrect.

I know it's supposed to be a joke, but it's an incorrect one anyway.
>>
>>53205495
Are you retarded or do you just not bother to read ?
>>
>>53208815
Both in theory in which sleep 2 means exactly 2 seconds, and practice in which every processor that is able to run bash would be fast enough to not let a full second oversleep happen, would the algorithm work.
>>
>>53205485
Pretty universal distinction mate
>>
>>53205650
New process implies new thread. New thread does not imply new process. New process is more specific.
>>
>>53204991
Kinda thinking of making one desu
what should it be?
We've already done microwaving, bricking, water damage, what now?
