It's incredibly simple. The most difficult thing about pointers would be function pointers imo because the C-syntax for function pointer types is a little bit weird imo. It makes sense, but it's just different from everything else.
Applying pointers is just about pointing at shit and dereferencing them.
>>54665655
>Memes
I'm genuinely perplexed by the idea that you'd name a book like that. If your goal is to teach how to handle data in a program that's a broader topic than pointers.
>>54665670
Yeah. If you're just dealing with your own codebase. I also turn it off unless I'm using something new. If you're learning a new library (the way I learn to use libraries anyway) it's useful because it's like a mini-documentation/typing assistance.

not sure what you mean, the plan was to make a server and a client project and I haven't really thought that much about features. Was thinking of having a simple contact list or a way to tell when a person is online, maybe support some images, emojis or whatever the fuck like in MSN.
I tried doing it in C# because that's what I've been using as of late due to classes(well that and Java, but fuck Java). Haven't used C++ in 2-3 years but I want to try learn QT in this short time if possible.
Problem with C# is, I couldn't get it to connect to the server at all and I'm having difficulties understating these EventHandlers.
The other 2 projects shouldn't be THAT difficult, but it is a pain in the ass considering one is to make a functioning Android app and the other is to make a simple working Unity game.
I really should make atleast something half-functioning in the next week so I can show it to my mentor and discuss further progress. Not to mention I need to write a paper on it and I haven't even started.

>>54665981
>int *pend = p + (sizeof(p) / (sizeof(items_consumable));
No, that part is horribly wrong. sizeof(items_consumable) will return the size of a pointer, it looks like you're confusing that with sizeof an array.
>>54665981
You should pass the size of the array to the function.
So, I programmed pretty much one of my first actually useful programs (in C). While programming it, I always started it right from terminal and everything worked. Next I wanted it to start from the file manager, but turns out, it doesn't. It segfaults. The reason is (or so I figure) that my program needs several files that it can't find when I'm starting it from the file manager.
Is there any way to somehow explain to the program where to find those files, or even better somehow include the files (bitmaps) directly into the binary?
How do you guys are so passionate about programming?
I know basics about programming and some languages at beginner level and I want to learn more languages, but I fail everytime to improve myself.

What should I do after learning basics?

I'm actually trying to compute (a/b)^(c/d) to high precision.
I heard that using ++ or -- on a floating-point data type is bad style, so I keep them as ints and typecast them before passing them as arguments.int a,b,c,d;
long double result;
// compute (a/b)^(c/d)
result = powl(a/b,c/d); // result of (a/b) implicitly cast to (long double) before being passed?
result = powl((long double)a/b,(long double)c/d); // b implicitly cast to (long double) before dividing a?
result = powl((long double)a/(long double)b,(long double)c/(long double)d); // possibly redundant, looks ugly, but makes super duper sure it works
Why is compiling on Windows so horrible? I ported my program to both Mac OS X and Linux and it worked just fine in a few minutes. On Windows on the other hand I have no fucking clue how to do anything, nothing fucking works, everything seems so horribly convoluted.
(long double) a / b * c / d
This is sufficient. a / b is a long double. The result * c is a long double. The result / d is a long double. Nothing lost unless an overflow occurs

Really. For 8 years I wanted to learn so much thing, but couldn't finished even one. I abandoned after week or month. And for last 6 month I practiced techniques from this course and now I am able to do things I want to do up to like 30 hours / week. Yes, you won't be able to do it right off the bat, you need to practice. Start with small steps.
Many universities make notes about that theme for their students, cause it is hard to success without knowing that things.

Whoever told you that is a retard. If you need to increment a floating point number do it. You just need to now the limits of the IEEE754 standard. In the case of incrementing integer numbers coded as doubles incrementing that number above 2^53 won't work.

You don't even know what the fuck you're talking about. What do you consider "standard Windows"? Windows with x86 binaries? Of course, the x86 binaries are not ARM binaries. RT is the Windows build for ARM from exactly the same source code.
>and server only run on x86 chips
Windows Server 2008R2 is supported until 2020 and it works on Itanium. But I guess the Itanium build is not "standard Windows" either for a retard like you.

Yeah I guess Boi Story 3 didn't really get my reaction through well enough. I love it, I use it for work, and for a hobbyist project that is sure to bring in $ and £.
That being said, if you're going down that path, and this is going a bit off-topic considering this is /dpt/, I would suggest not using another full framework on top like Angular. Django is already fully featured and as battery-powered as you can get.
Extend the View functionality with frameworks that are View-only like Knockout.js or React.js
Anything else you use is personal choice

>>54669155
Not with tail call optimisation. All recursive calls are within the same stack frame that way.
>>54669411
I thought the biggest advantage and the meme of recursion is writing a small amount of code to perform something that would otherwise take a lot of code. I think it's obvious that you could make any recursive solution into an iterative one, and it might be easier to do so, but you can't do it in as few lines right?

>>54669589
it doesn't save all that many lines of code, and it usually doesn't matter if a function is 5 lines or 10 lines long
there are severe drawbacks to recursion like being forced to fragment your code into tiny little functions whereas with iteration you can embed a loop inside a different function, and with iteration there's an easy to follow top to bottom flow of the code, but with recursion you have "jumps" to the top of the function, so it's a bit like goto in that it can be horrible to read

>>54669589
The big advantage is slightly less code and maybe an easier way to piece together an algorithm, but you sacrifice:
- potentially blowing the stack
- making workarounds to force your code to be tail-call optimized, in order not to potentially blow the stack
When you take these into consideration, and when you start working on sizable projects where your time and effort is needed elsewhere, you'll realize why you will instinctively stick to the iterative approach, or at least only consider recursive when you can instantly see a tail-call optimized solution

That actually sounds really cushy. I would not have been surprised if it was a cobol-like fixed-length record format
>>54669589
Recursion tends to be more intuitive
>>54669457
Simply put, before a function B is called from function A, a pointer to A is pushed to the stack so that when B returns, the program knows where to jump back to.
When using recursion (without tail call optimisation) you add a lot of these jump-back pointers to the stack.
The alternative way is to use iteration and manage your own stack.
For example to visit each node in a treedef visit(node)
visit(node.left)
visit(node.right)
def visit(node)
stack = [node]
while !stack.isEmpty()
node = stack.pop()
stack.push(node.left)
stack.push(node.right)

If you assign a char value, say '5' which is 0x35, to a short on a little endian machine, the bytes in memory will be "35 00".
If you take the address of that short and cast it to char*, it gives the valid NULL terminated C-string "5".
So, this "converts" a char to a char*.

Thanks for the explanation.

>>54670093
>If you take the address of that short and cast it to char*, it gives the valid NULL terminated C-string "5".
So, if I declare two local short variables (in the same scope) and assign 5 to both of them then both would have the same address?
>>54670178
>So, if I declare two local short variables (in the same scope) and assign 5 to both of them then both would have the same address?
Not at all.
Assuming they both spill, they will each have a different address and the top of your stack will look like "35 00 35 00"
>>54670112
Obviously some algorithms are more intuitive as iterative.

Guys, I tried learning ncurses but I ran in to an error in the very beginning.
My code:#include <ncurses.h>
int main(){
initsrc();
raw();
printw("Hello world!");
getch();
endwin();
return 0;
}
and I compile withgcc -o hello hello.c -lncurses. The problem is that it still throws linker errorsmain.c:(.text+0xa): undefined reference to `initsrc'. I've installed ncurses-dev and I'm out of ideas. What do?
>>54670377
It's
```
initscr();
```
As in initScreen, not initSource. Tried it myself, and it works.
