DESU, if you're solving a generic problem yourself for anything other than a school project, you're seriously doing it wrong. Every general problem has been solved; if you're building software today, you should be stitching together libraries in a way that satisfies your requirements in the cleanest possible way. Your project should contain as little original code as possible.
Every line of code you write is a liability: it's an opportunity for a bug to exist in your project. The only things that matter are shipping bug-free code and keeping the codebase clean, readable, and well-tested.

Back before frameworks and such were popular it had its place. The web API prototypes are often very verbose (I'm looking at you, Document.prototype.getElementById) and were, in the past, not feature complete. And back before CSS3 was usable jQuery was practically your only option for animations.

You have always could do animation in pure javascript. I do agree that jQuery helped fill a gap that was mostly due to javascript drafts being incomplete
Trying to get back into the python groove, so making a lil facebook bot...
>>54705487
That's true, however jQuery did have a lot of tricks up its sleeve to make animations smooth (on shitty browsers and shittier computers) that were hard to reimplement and even harder to make work cross-browser. It's a testament to the new era of browsers that jQuery is finally starting to release support for the old ones like IE[6-8].

I've got a VBScript question for you guys. It's for Siemens comfort panels to be precise.
What is a good way to implement a fscanf like function? I am able to write data to a .csv file and I'd like to read it out again.
What i tried to do was to read a character, check if it was the delimiter, if not add the character to a string. When the delimiter is reached convert the string to a real. Sadly it didn't work.
Anyone here able to help me?
>>54705696
Yes. You can have as many as you like. I have 3 sites hosted under different uri under the same hostname. I hope you know .nix
newb here, is this bad code?
http://pastebin.com/BBMnS0TJ
It's a settings file for a simple script I'm using. As you can see, it's set up so that I can just add configs to the settings dictionary and the functions will fill in the rest and ensure that defaults are there when a setting isn't configured and that each setting is valid.
Am I better off using classes for this? Am I abusing dictionaries? Is this sloppy/poorly-designed?
>>54705696
try searching for droplets and virtual hosts
>>54705696
Are these sites dynamic? When a browser accesses a website, it sends which domain in particular it wants as part of something inside the request called the header.
Pretty much any server software worth its salt can read this part of the header and decide which site to serve, even if all the sites are technically on the same IP.
The thing is, every server software is going to accomplish this/be configured differently, so you're probably going to want to tell us a little bit more about these websites of yours.
Your nicest option is probably to use nginx as a reverse proxy.
>>54705772
Normally data should be seperate from code. So instead of a dictionary have a JSON file, which your code then reads into a dictionary and calls your functions

Newline correctly appears in output file.
any ideas?
>>54705785
Why would you pay for separate droplets for a couple of small sites? You just route them properly on the same system with nginx.

Guys I have a time dependant function which works fine if I call just once. However if I call two or more the results stack in the console. So I want to know what would be the CORRECT way to set the order in which these functions will execute.
Would it:
>A) Be better to use threads, using mechanisms intended to force the N thread to wait for the execution of the last.
>B) Check the time frame in which the Nth is being executed, then change the variables of the Nth+1 execution accordingly
>C) Any other idea you have
>>54706009
Call two or more what? Do you mean call the function twice? And by 'results stack in the console', do you mean a race condition w/ printing?

Somebody mentioned (in another, now deleted) thread a problem to compute the number of palindromes between a and b. I wanted critique on my solution to the problem, but the thread no longer exists so I'll post it here and hope he sees it.
>>54705380
>>54706008
Seems like it would be easy to just take the number of combinations of half a number (since the other half will be a mirror copy).
So say your upper bound is 65535, you know that all palindromes under this number will be of the form:
XXYZZ where XXY are picked and ZZ is a mirror of XX. So you only need to count the number of combinations of XXY which make this number be below 65535.
Quick proof of sketch implementation:import Control.Lens
import Data.Char (digitToInt)
import Test.QuickCheck
-- Is a number a palindrome?
isPalin n = show n == reverse (show n)
-- Number of palindromes of exactly length n
palin10 n = 9 * 10 ^ ((n-1) `quot` 2)
-- Number of palindromes below n
palinLim n = base + rest + errors
where s = show n
l = length s
-- All palindromes strictly below n's length (easy to compute)
base = sum [palin10 n | n <- [1..l-1]]
-- All palindromes of length l, additional requirement that p <= n
half = take ((l+1) `div` 2) s
rest = read (half & _head %~ pred)
-- Account for two errors with the above estimations:
-- 1. handling of 0 (it's also a palindrome)
-- 2. is half ++ reverse half below n or not?
errors = 1 + case compare s (half ++ reverse (take (l`div`2) s)) of
LT -> 0
_ -> 1
-- Testing
propPalin n = (n > 0 && n < 100000) ==>
palinLim n == length [ p | p <- [0..n], isPalin p ]λ quickCheck propPalin
+++ OK, passed 100 tests.
This runs in O(log(n)), which is fast enough for all practical numbers. Is there an O(1) solution?

Games generally have interactions that make doing everything functionally very hard. Possible of course but it's very hard.
Also games shouldn't allocate during their run generally. You have an asset load and you know what it is, so you malloc all the shit at the start and you're set. Asset streaming is reusing memory, not allocating new memory.

>>54706987
are you actually retarded? Of course that will work, it's a variadic function. But you can't curry a variadic function like you would curry a normal function because you need to know how many arguments there are. So instead you do a different kind of currying where it collects the arguments and spits out the result when the terminal argument (null or undefined, in the implementation I showed you) is passed.

You see, I didn't know your assumptions. I guess you don't really need to index, just to see if an element is there, but a binary tree would be a better data structure for this.

C++ is great, but for that particular use-case, it's 10,000 times easier in something like C# or Python.
Sure, you can hammer a nail in with a monkey wrench, but you might as well just use a hammer if you've got one.

BST was next on my to dos on relearning after linked list, stack and queue.
I got the linked list working well enough I will add the iterator as well since that is useful.
>>54707238
ok this is fucked up.
If add(5) return 5, then add(5)(5) is equivalent to 5(5) which is retarded because 5 isn't a function. Unless I'm missing something, this should be impossible.

I'm finding a hard time in my understanding of General programming...
I seem unable to make the connection between how writing variables and assigning them values like numbers strings or bullion classes excetera actually translates to the final product...
How does doing all of that writing all the functions variables objects classes Etc turn into a website or a video game?
How does writing these lines of code turn into an animation or give a character model it's jump ability or shoot Rockets or make a website happen?
All that ever happens for me is the console returning a value or set of values after operating everything...
How do I take the code and turn it into something???
>>54707409
Variadic functions are useful because it can make your programs nicer (see: printf). They are never strictly required.
>>54707431
God damn it, /g/. I thought this was a board for people who worked in the industry. Instead all I see is kids figuring out how to make arrays and making useless methods. Step up your fucking game.

My industry is in ui design and level design utilizing already established engines. But I am branching out into actual programming to further educate myself on the backend.

I just finished work
A game is made from APIs on top of APIs, abstractions and optmizations of code other people made which can interact with hardware like your screen. On top of those abstractions is the logic you use, using their APIs, in order to instruct things to do other things.
It's like a computer itself. Building one from parts is easy, but there were people who dug deeper who were able to make the parts from silicon and other materials.

I'm not. I'm saying that Java and C# are just two sides of the same crappy coin. I think Python is worse than both of them.

It's a function that takes a parameter, and returns a function that takes a parameter, adding both parameters together. The inner function, as a string, is the 1st parameter

how would you guys handle this situation? Working on a scraper with a few components
One component requires the use of a Session. When the entire thread is running, this Session needs to remain persistent. I think I can get away by this by encapsulating the whole program in a 'with urllib.Session as c' and exporting the c through the various functions I need to run through.. I think. Anyways is there a different way I should do this? Like spawning another thread to handle those things needed for the Session and exporting commands to that
Dunno which way is better

I asked in the /fglt/ but got no replies but since it's a bit related to programming I'll give it a shot here as well. I wrote a small script that runs scrot -s, saves it in /tmp, uploads the screenshot via SFTP and copies the URL into the clipboard (similar to Hyperdesktop/Push but just bare minimum script). The problem is that when I run the script either from the terminal or dmenu, the script works fine, but when I set it as a hotkey in my DE then it fails horribly.
What's even weirder is that it worked fine in OpenBox but fails with Cinnamon.
Anyone ever experience this issue while using Python and the subprocess module?

>>54707816
try sleeping a little bit before you run the script (in your hotkey). This is how it's done in Awesome.
>>54707812
SICP is not really theoretic. It's the transition between thinking in abstractions and writing concrete programs. It's a great read for an intermediate programmer. Of course, you shouldn't take it as the only source or as the bible, though.

I use it for work. It's so smooth to use. If there's a bug or feature that needs to be implemented, it's out within the day easily
My friend tried to teach me the difference between compiling and interpreting.
What it sounded like was a compiler translates your language into machine language, whereas interpreting only translates your inputs into another higher-level language
But is there a resource for helping me understand how to write a compiler? Because I don't know shit about it. I can write interpreters easily enough though.
And also is machine language assembly?
>>54707812
people now think that SICP is very theoretical? That makes me sad.

> not writing commit messages in imperative form

>>54707900
machine language is assembly, but you've got the interpreter vs compiler thing wrong.
A compiler generates a binary file that can be run at any time.
An interpreter continuously reads and runs the source code. The program is run at that time only, and no binary is generated.
>>54707853
Yeah. I was using the term theoretical to mean "abstract," as opposed to what other books teach, cookbookery. But theoretical has other meanings.

Are you some special kind of faggot or something?
>>54707945
Even then, SICP is just sort of abstract programming, it is much less abstract than the most abstract parts of CS.
>>54707900
>machine language assembly
Generally maps 1:1.
Machine language isn't microcode though (which is what the processor ACTUALLY uses). But you never (i hope) have to touch that as a software guy.
As for writing compilers I don't have much of a clue. I've heard there's a book with dragons on it that's supposed to be good.
>>54707897
Django's fine, but Bootstrap's too bloated for what you're doing.

I'm not trying to speak in the superlative man. I'm talking comparative, i.e. SICP vs HTDP.
>>54707980
While you may be right, portability is a HUGE bonus, Sass/less is icing on the cake. Customizable common features too. It means I'll worry less about front-end and worry more about the fun tasks of back-end, security, and server-side optimizations

a compiler is a program that converts one language into another. Colloquially, that usually means converted into machine code, but it could technically be any language. There's a couple compilers out there that take one language and convert it into javascript to ensure portability, for instance.
A decent way to start making compilers is to try compiling simple languages using a functional language like Lisp or Ocaml
An interpreter is more like a compiler that does its work at runtime. It compiles and then executes instructions on the fly.
Here's a couple textbooks I had in my compiler classes in college. I can't tell you if they're any good (I barely read them), but they might.
