Nice cry for attention. Here's your reply.

Thanks anon!

people are generally perplexed by how a computer works. to most consumers, a computer is a black box that they were thoroughly convinced they needed, either because their old computer was slow, they felt out of the loop when they didn't have one, or because it was sold to them as something premium.

the idea of using a computer without structures made by a remote, paid, and uninspired designer is a very alien idea to the majority of computer programmers, and completely unheard of by the average consumer of technology.

if you were to bring up that you were a programmer in a conversation, the only way you could deflate the assumption that you posses an unknown power of a massively creative nature, would be to admit that there is an industry built around busywork, and that really a few people who knew how to market basically redundant and niche Apps run the entire show, and you happened to be employed by some of the best, most liberal, and generous of the bunch.

another route to diffuse the pretension of awesomeness would be to start talking about the brands of computer software you know of. some buzzwordsz; (they are all quite fascinating in the notions they represent, not exclusively in the implementations)

there has been at least one person who killed themselves over software politics: this may be a contributing factor in why the geeks are considered to be special.

yes, so before I even install it I'm asking you guys.

This is not new information.
Also, your function has a return type of int yet does not return anything.
You're also using printf when you're not printing formatted data.
There's no need to run an ide for such a simple program.

>There's no need to run an ide for such a simple program
so what? it's not like computers care if they are used or not.

>>51837603
It just seems cumbersome when you're clearly not even making use of any of the features the IDE offers over a simpler text editor + a compiler. Especially since you've created a whole new project with one file.

Pale moon, just look how fast it is:

Studying NVidia's Thrust library code atm.

>>51837423
In the section I'm in atm, it's filled with stuff like this

template <typename ForwardIterator, typename T, typename StrictWeakOrdering>
bool binary_search(ForwardIterator first, ForwardIterator last, const T &value,
                   StrictWeakOrdering comp) {
  using thrust::system::detail::generic::select_system;

  typedef typename thrust::iterator_system<ForwardIterator>::type System;

  System system;

  return thrust::binary_search(select_system(system), first, last, value, comp);
}

and this

template <typename ForwardIterator, typename LessThanComparable>
thrust::pair<ForwardIterator, ForwardIterator> equal_range(
    ForwardIterator first, ForwardIterator last,
    const LessThanComparable &value) {
  using thrust::system::detail::generic::select_system;

  typedef typename thrust::iterator_system<ForwardIterator>::type System;

  System system;

  return thrust::equal_range(select_system(system), first, last, value);
}

int avg(int a, int b)
{
    return (a & b) + ((a ^ b) >> 1);
}

I just want something that'll take basic muh-animu playing video software for the next 7-8 years. and hopefully any OS of 2020.

the price range for replacing items is +/- 10% of what the items i've posted in OP cost.

A PSU and a case would be something you didn't list.

Why not a pentium dualcore cpu?

You need to GTFO you dumb frog poster

Yes, data structures are definitely the next step if you're already comfortable with the language's syntax.

Udacity.com has great programming courses and they are free if you push the blue "access course materials" button when enrolling. They have all sorts of cs classes from beginner to advanced and they are challenging and you really learn a lot. If you get stuck you can look at the answer. It's great

>>51837016
Google "learn C the hard way " and do it in your spare time. Do it not so much to learn C itself for the sake of learning C, but to give you a view of how a computer works and all the shit that modern langs hide from you (with a cost).

Read up on data structures and which types of problems can be solved by which types efficiently.

Don't concern yourself with the "which language is best" memo here on /g/.

This. I've also seen a couple of Asus ones that didn't look shabby.
