What are you working on, /g/?
first for C
2nd for java best language
3rd for memes
As I said before right after this was posted:
>tfw babby finally set up his first dev environment.
Wish I'd have done CS instead of IS now probably. When I picked IS, I didn't care for programming, because the only thing I tried was HTML and CSS on Codecademy and got bored in like five minutes.
Then I got interested in Information Security, Networks, Servers, pentesting, etc. So I picked IS of course. Then I did Python on Codecademy and was like this is sweet, so I started learning JavaScript and C and C#. Now I don't even read about Information Security or sysadmin stuff anymore.
I'm sure I'll get back into it when we learn that stuff in uni, but for now I guess I'll just learn C. Only problem is their is no project or goal I have in mind, literally only learning to learn.
Thanks for reading my blog.

Dear /dpt/,
I have this integer in C#
And I want to change its individual bytes without affecting the whole integer
What is the best way of doing this?
To be more clear:
My integer is 0x4488AAFF and I want to change the 88 to another byte
>>52897887
f͏ != f
>>52897925
0x4488AAFF-0x00880000+0x00XX0000
>>52897925
I think this is the only way to do it man, definitely no other way around it.
>>52897978
this
the compiler will be able to optimise this the best
>>52897215
kill yourself
>>52897925
you could also do:
(0x4488AAFF & 0xFF00FFFF) | 0x00XX0000
>>52897987
not sure if serious
>>52898034
Well, the compiler certainly can optimize constant values the best :^)

>That's how I do it
what the fuck nigger the guy must've been joking
look into boolean algebra, bitwise operations work on the same principle but with multiple bits at a time
you do it likei = 0x4488AAFF;
i &= 0xFF00FFFF; // i = 0x4400AAFF
i |= 0x00XX0000; // i = 0x44XXAAFF
ori = 0x4488AAFF;
i ^= 0x00880000; // i = 0x4400AAFF
i ^= 0x00XX0000; // i = 0x44XXAAFF
ori = 0x4488AAFF;
i ^= 0x00880000 ^ 0x00XX0000;
use your imagination
>>52898165
>you do it like
*you can do it like
>>52898165
ori = 0x4488AAFF;
i |= 0x00FF0000; // i = 0x44FFAAFF
i &= 0xFFXXFFFF; // i = 0x44XXAAFF
Im going to ask again sorry, but what do i use to compile .as files into a .swf file?

I don't get it
How am I supposed to use 0x00XX0000 when I only have XX
>>52898202
XX << 4
>>52898201
Better question is why are you still using flash?
>>52898118
0xXX<<16?
>>52898209
XX << 16
>>52898202
use a shift
A=(int)XX << (8*n) where n is the byte
also, you really should know how this stuff works

>>52898899

It has a use, and that use is in the name "query".
Maybe you should look up the definition of "useless"

>>52898913
We're talking about the language itself, not the features of the framework. Linq is a library, not a feature.
>>52898930
You said that most of what I'm doing is dogshit for performance, by pointing out a completely redundant thing.
>>52898935
Yeah I'm building my queries with string concatention and without mysql_real_escape_string. Feels good man.
>>52898937
just because resharper does it for you doesn't mean it isn't inefficient. why are you even using a dictionary, hashset, schemelist? and top kek how you Csharts act all high and mighty about your type inference but you still have the shit in >>52898612

i'm just saying your game has dogshit performance compared to what it would have in a language like C++ or even in C# if a more competent programmer had made it
>>52898901
>>52898921
You could have Name and Amount be properties with private setters to achieve the same effect without the overhead of readonly. Also, the problem with Linq is mostly Linq, not IEnumerable. Writing your own data structures is not a very good practice. Are you making a game? If so, if you're doing it right, iterating through lists is not going to be your bottleneck.
>>52899049
And how did you come to that conclusion?
That code is being called between 1 to 5 times at most per frame.
That dictionary isn't a framework class either, so you couldn't possibly know how it actually works.

When did I ever fucking say that, All I ever said is that IEnumerable is bad for performance, THAT'S LITERALLY THE ONLY TIME I MENTIONED PERFORMANCE.
>>52899113
and all i ever said is that IEnumerable isn't the only thing that brings down the performance of your game
>>52899125
What I've said is that since I am working on a game, I'd rather not use IEnumerable because it's not as efficient as raw arrays.
>IEnumerable isn't the only thing that brings down the performance of your game
How is that related in any way, obviously there are a lot of things that come into consideration, especially data locality. But how any of that is related to what I've said? Did I ask you for advice? Did I complain that I am getting bad performance?
There's no point arguing with you, you're trying to prove something when there's nothing to prove.
>>52899085
>>52899113
He has a point. Being a cunt about it, but still. The fact that you're using your own data structures in itself evidences that you are not as experienced as you'd like to believe. Micro-optimization is a common antipattern. The standard containers are effective enough when used correctly. In a well-coded game, you should rarely have to fully iterate through a large container on a per-frame basis. Containers should never be your bottleneck. Your optimization efforts should be focused on your game code.
Was kinda bored so I made this oscillating line-image filter thingy in processing. Each line is added on a click. How does it look? Any advice?
>>52899188
The .net List, has a lot of unnecessary checks, if the list is of structs, there is no way to fast clear it, where you can just set the max index of the list to 0 and ignore all the data contained in it. There are version checks in the .net List. There is also no way to iterate over all the objects and clear them at the same time.
>The fact that you're using your own data structures in itself evidences that you are not as experienced as you'd like to believe.
That's a redundant claim without actually knowing the thought process or reasoning for the things I'm doing.

I know. I've worked with C# for a very long time. Those things are trivial in the scope of a well-coded game, and making your own data structures sacrifices interoperability that just ends up costing you elsewhere. The effort you would spend making them is better spent in your game code, which is bound to be where your actual bottlenecks lie. It's a matter of priority. And while I don't know your reasoning, I don't really need to because this tenet is essentially universal. Please don't misunderstand my tone; I'm not trying to be a dick, just trying to help you out.
I'm starting to love LDAP. Initially it was hard to set up, but now it's running great.
Just got dynamic VLANs with radiusprofile to work, so I'm integrating it in the interface.

>>52899322
C# is extremely useful in most business environments, as many offices are mostly using the full Microsoft stack(Active Directory, SQL Server, Exchange, etc.). Working with these things is a breeze in C#. Same goes for rapid scripting and app devving from a sysadmin/BI standpoint.
C++ is the gold standard for baseline app dev and video game programming. Lots of jobs and things to do with C++, an easily marketable skill.
C is very low level, and frankly won't be of much use to you unless you're planning on pursuing a career as a low-level dev. Think drivers, game engines, OS components, etc.
Take what I say with a grain of salt; I'm biased towards C# because it's my favorite to write in for many reasons, and I use it almost daily for my job.

This is based on what's requested on job listings. If you learn Programming with C++ you learn that despair and chaos is the natural state of being (spoiler: it's not).
C is much more useful for learning and understanding purposes than C++ and C# are.

without running the code, what is the output? (No, the output is not 20).#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
int a = 1;
switch (a) {
int b = 20;
case 1:
printf("b is %d\n", b);
break;
default:
printf("b is %d\n", b);
break;
}
return 0;
}

The same can be said of C++. You'll be spending most of your time figuring out how to compile third party libraries, their dependencies and their dependencies' dependencies, etc. rather than actually getting anything useful done. And when a new version comes out or you need to set up a new computer it's the same shit over again. This is true of both C and C++ though.

They can start doing things within a month or two of learning, and they all have a good amount of jobs later on.

Never seen that before. Is it legit or is this just going to return an error?
>>52899619
why is that b declaration in the switch? Also, the output is 0, i guess.

I intend to, but it's not up yet. When it's reasonably releasable I will put it on github. It's already pretty much fully functional though. Just needs a bit more polish and repository cleanup. I will probably upload it fairly soon.
It currently supports thread merging (to retain deleted posts) only for 4chan and Tinyboard-compatible boards but it should be easy to add support for others by adding new parsers.

Unless you're writing an OS, device drivers or some super low level ultra-performance critical library you shouldn't have to deal with memory directly anyway. You're better off with a language that manages that automatically unless you're working with one of those things.

in C is the declaration when you give it a type or when you give it a value?
my professor (who claimed he help design yacc) told me it was when you give it a type...
>>52899786
You won't ever write a good program without having programmed in a strictly-typed, imperative-oriented, non-object-oriented language. Those are you Cs
>>52899792
He's right. You can define a variable in almost all languages without giving it any value, mostly for making sure you don't try to declare/use a variable that you meant to use for something else. It's like saying, "Listen bud, we're gonna have a variable named B somewhere down the line; I don't know what we're gonna use it for, or what will it contain, but we're declaring, that there is already a variable called B."
>>52899797

There's a good saying: "you can get java to run fast - until the first garbage colleciton"
>>52899728
Except usually you do, unless you are using Visual C++ (and the same version as the library) since all the different compilers have different output formats.
On a *nix system you can probably get a long way using the built in package manager if it happens to have development packages for everything you need and they aren't horribly outdated... but that's still a lot of ifs. Overall it's just a pain in the ass no matter what and it will all result in a tangled mess of dependencies that will take hours to reproduce on any new system and more so if it's been a while since you did it, or aren't the original creator of the software.
Say I have two variables. Both are arrays, one of strings and one of ints.
The contents of the int array is a product of the string array. They are both the same length, the int array is just a numerical representation of the string array.
Now the key here is that the int array is reliant on the string array. You can set the string array, but you can not set the int array.
What is the good way to do that? In this case I am using C# and currently using the string array setter to set the int arrays content. But no matter the language, or whether you use setters or SetVariable(), it feels like the wrong thing to do. Like, you expect setting one variable will not affect the contents of another variable.
Code wise this is fine, it compiles fine and it runs fine. There are no errors. My question is if it makes sense?
And if not, how else would you model a one way, two variable dependency?

>>52899797
This is patently false.
>>52899890
End the function with "return b" instead of return 0.
>>52899833
So your int array is basically cache for string parsing? It should be single variable with three methods Set(), GetAsString() and GetAsInt(). Make a new class and hide both arrays inside. Or even better, store only ints, parse them in setter and make a getter to convert them into strings. But that depends on your use case.

Also, declare b outside the switch.

>>52899901
I know I'm new to C and have only been programming for a year or so but I feel so retarded. Or I'm being trolled.
I change return 0 to return b but b is declared in the switch statement. returning b within the switch does nothing either, and I still continue to get 0.
>>52899890
Is this the code you're talking about? >>52899619
You can't declare b inside of switch like that. First case begins only after it.

There's your problem, you don't really get how a switch works. Switch statements only care things that are in their cases, that's what they're for. Do as I said in >>52899941

I want to avoid using structs because the usage areas only ever need one or the other, not both bundled together.

Storing excel columns in the format that excel uses for the user of the program, and in a 0 based index for the program to be able to use in loops. GUI logic is completely separated from function, so you only ever need either the label or the index. Never both. And for performance reasons this can't be evaluated every time it's called.
>>52900047
Your implication was that developers who write solely in C# or Java literally cannot understand basic algorithm complexity and good programming-performance practices.

Is there a reason you can't just call .Length() on the index of the entry you want?
>>52900060
Are you sure you don't want to use the struct solution?
In the end the memory usage will be exactly the same, if not a little bit less because you don't need 2 separate arrays.
Also the performance will be exactly the same or slower by such a small margin that you literally won't care. Since the struct size is only 8bytes if you compile it for 32, or 12bytes (which is aligned to 16 I think) if you compile it under 64.
You won't really experience more cache misses when iterating for the int values, and iterating over the strings wouldn't matter either way.

JFYI, you can declare properly namespaced enums outside classes:class enum Foo { foo, bar };
int main () {
return static_cast<int>(Foo::bar);
}
I don't think there is a reason to declare one inside class, if you gonna use it outside.

I already have something that works, it's not the solution I'm looking for. I'm just wondering about the optimal way to go about implementing a weird variable relationship like this and have it be in a sane way. Where it's reasonable to the user of the class that one variable is dependent on the other. Best answer so far is to simply only have one Set function and two Get functions, an implied internal state of sorts without exposing the variables.
