I have one about Database normalisation.

If I have the Relation:

>R(ABCD)

and the FD's

>B -> C
>AC -> D
>AB -> D
>BD -> A

What are the Keys?

My answer was B, but when looking at the answer in the book I get AB and BD, why is that correct? I thought you can only create Keys from stuff that's not on the RHS.

>Accessing beyond the bounds of an array: Make sure that you have not violated the bounds of any array you are using; i.e., you have not subscripted the array with a value less than the index of its lowest element or greater than the index of its highest element.

/g/, I'm doing some tests, please don't bother with how stupid the code looks.
Why DOESN'T the following give segmentation fault? Shouldn't it?
Is it a compiler issue?

#include <stdio.h>

int main(){

int arr[3];
arr[0]=0; printf("arr[0] = %d\n",arr[0]);
arr[1]=1; printf("arr[1] = %d\n",arr[1]);
arr[2]=2; printf("arr[2] = %d\n",arr[2]);
arr[3]=3; printf("arr[3] = %d\n",arr[3]);
arr[4]=4; printf("arr[4] = %d\n",arr[4]);
arr[5]=5; printf("arr[5] = %d\n",arr[5]);
return 0;
}


If I add arr[6] then it does.
>>
>>54462575
It's undefined behavior. It may or may not lead to an actual segfault. There's obviously some other data in stack that you overwriting with arr[3]..arr[5].

I have 4 slots of DDR3 RAM available on my motherboard, after upgrading my gpu and psu 2 of the sticks gave me beep codes (2x 2gb) I bought two new sticks (2x 2x2 ) however when the new sticks are installed with the old, I get the beep code. Additionally when both new sticks are inserted my system32 info tells me I only have 4gb. Any idea why?

Interesting

If I compile this with clang, I get array-bounds warnings, correct values aren't assigned to out of bounds elements, and I never get a segfault when running.
If I compile it with gcc, I get no warnings, but the out of bound elements are assigned correctly until it segfaults.
>>
>>54462772
>Trusting a memelord from "Fry's"
They can do if you mess around with some settings, assuming your motherboard can even interact with RAM that speed

But you will always be throttled to the slower speed
>>
>>54462488
Pretty sure I found how to get the Keys, since only B doesn't get the whole relation, testing B with AB, BC and BD, got me with AB, and BD, that gets all attributes in the closure, so I guess that's how it works when you only have one attribute to work with.

I hope..
>>
>>54462825
I actually looked up the specs of my motherboard online, could barely find shit, how to I check supported speeds? Although I figure it works with the new sticks since they're in there .

Do you know why it's only displaying 4gb installed though?
>>
>>54462772
While it isn't ideal to have different type of RAM it should still work.
Your description of what happens is a bit confusing - you seem to say one set always gives beep codes and are confused when they give a beep code together? And you ask why having 2x2 installed only show 4gb?

Not really that much, it is more powerful than the GTX 980 but not that much against the 980Ti.

Wait for benchmarks but i dont think its worth upgrading, wait for the Ti version.

They claim the 1080 has ~2x the FLOPS of a 980

>>54462883
Any Configuration utilizing 3 or more sticks results in a beep code. However having any combination of 2 sticks in the same paired slot (the slots are arranged [][] [][]) let's the computer boot up normally. Currently I have 2 2x2 sticks ([x][x] [][]) but my computer is only displaying 4gb instead of 8.

Long story short, my ext4 partition with Ubuntu got corrupted and I deleted it, but now I'm trying to recover it with MiniTool Partition Wizard. The program finds my ext4 partition, saying it is 97GB with 88GB of used space, just like how it was before it went to hell. But when I try to restore it, it only restores a parition with 40GB of total space and like 20GB of used space. But I have around 120GB of free space on my HD.

>>54463067
Yes all the slots work so long as 2 slots are filled with RAM. So 2 sticks of old or 2 sticks of new or 1 old and 1 new. However if the third of fourth slot is filled a beep code results. Perhaps I'm a retard but the guy told me me each 2x2 stick functioned as 4gb, thus 2 2x2 sticks should be 8 gb (om totally willing to accept I'm an imbecile here and was mislead but I'd like to be sure)

>>54463087
The computer doesn't POST when I get the code, it's a long repeating beep (about 2or 3 seconds). I know it's RAM because the computer works fine with only 2 sticks, but errors at 3 or 4

The slots are [blue][black] [blue][black]

I assumed the colors represented pairs but I still get a beep code if all slots are filled.

You can determine the candidate keys, by looking at the functional dependencies. The combination of AB and BD functionally determine every thing else in relation R. Using Armstrong's axioms, you can break either of those down and see for yourself. Either one could be picked as a primary key then.

btw, this is probably not in third normal form.

if you have two antiviruses running (avp and mcafee) then the above is not true. ideally you want to have just a malware scanner like malwarebytes installed for the occasional scan and other antiviruses uninstalled (and windows defender disabled) if you care about cpu usage.

News flash: memory is allocated in blocks. There is no way to allocate a single bit, you will always get at least a byte. In most languages you will never notice this because they have guards but in C you can experiment like you just did and there will be no errors. The operating system manages the memory so you can get from 3 to 2^64-1 or anything in between. Enjoy your buffer overflows.

Planning to get a 380. Aftermarket versions are a bit sniffy about providing an exact TDP and they're all above 200W it seems (~220W). Most websites that say it's a 190W card mention the card as being "AMD Radeon R9 380". Tons of variants exists and they all have different clock speeds which I reckon affect power draw, but at the same time some of the lower clocked cards (e.g. 975mhz) have higher wattage than higher clocked cards (e.g. 1050mhz). I guess the higher wattage for lower clocked cards may be due to the cooling/fans? Anybody know which 380 has the lowest power draw?

I have a TP 850W Gold by the way, this isn't about that.

>Lowest capacity
No.
You can mix and match as you like. The RAM controller runs at the slowest speed available if the fast chip can handle the slow speed.
The capacity is the sum. You can slap 1GB + 2GB to end up with 3GB of RAM as Samsung and Dell did for years.

Most screws screw in a boss embedded in the plastic part unless the laptop has magnesium or some weird metal thing inside.

>>54469819
Individual chips require differing amounts of voltage to function at a given clock speed. Sometimes a chip will clock to a given speed, say 1050mhz, and draw 220w max, while another might draw 200 at the same speed, and another won't reach 1050 regardless of how much power you give it. Generally speaking, a card that has a high clock speed and lower power draw is probably a little better quality than the same card with lower clocks/higher power draw. Of course, you often get a card that a manufacturer put a higher quality chip in because it's what was on hand, so you can overclock the shit out of it. Similar rules apply to CPUs.
>>
>>54470005

please note that TDP means thermal design power, which is the maximum of energy that gets emitted as heat. this does not imply the usage of that much (often it is a bit more).

I do not think that a improvement of the GPU would change that much for those games. A big difference can be seen e.g. when a game uses physX (or tries to use it) and you do not have a physix GPU. it heavily relies on the CPU then, which does not really work out.
>>
>>54470040
Very well said. Makes sense, I didn't look at it that way. Assuming a particular card operating at 1050mhz at some 220w, I can underclock to a still-acceptable 975mhz to possibly get down to 200w. Thanks, I'll read up on this a bit more on my own time!

Would using one of these for each part of the input (basically having both wii u and pc audio connected but only having one active at once) be okay? Would there be noise or any other downside?

When seeding files renaming stuff won't actually change the hash of the file right? Like say I download a CD album and I wan't to change the names of songs that are tagged incorrectly that won't fuck up my seeding ability right?

And I can add stuff like album art into the album thats being seeded and it won't get fucked up right?

I need sandboxing software (Sandboxie doesn't do this) that intercepts disk I/O at lower than file levels, so that some commercial software protection do not mess with my bootloader. Any recommendations?

>renaming stuff won't actually change the hash of the file right?

it'll still fuck up your client, at least with all the clients I've used

you'd be better off just making a local copy (#USERDIR/Music/whatever) and leaving anything you seed untouched
