Thread Rules
1. This is not a "do my homework for me" thread. If you have specific questions, ask, but don't post an assignment or homework problem and expect an exact solution.
2. No recruiting for your cockamamie projects (you won't replace facebook with 3 dudes you found on the internet and $20)
3. If you can't articulate why a language is bad, don't start slinging shit about it. Just remember that nothing is worse than making CSS IE6 compatible.
4. Use [code] tags to format code blocks.

That is extremely easy to achieve, especially if the content is static and you don't plan on changing that often. All you need is to read tutorials on HTML and CSS.

Basically what you have there is a table, so learn how to fancy the tables with CSS and you are ready to go.

It doesn't take that long to learn CSS. Do it right with div and position layouts, and you'll save yourself a lot of headaches later.

Those were of my own making but nevermind -_-

Anyone has any idea why can't Eclipse use SVN properly with linked folders (via Subclipse)? At work we use Eclipse with ClearCase and an open source ClearCase plugin and we have no problem with version control & linked folders. Unavailability of integrated version control is way too much of a loss.

Maybe give subversive a try instead of subclipse. No guarantees though, i don't even know what linked folders in svn are ^^ but subversive always works better than subclipse in my experience.

Hey guys, I'm having trouble with a function in c.

I'm trying to make a function that takes an array of characters (basically a string/phrase) and count how many words out of it. A "word" is defined to be a sequence of non-null, non-whitespace characters, separated from other words by whitespace.

This is what I have right now.


int words( char sentence[]){
        int wrd = 0;
        int i, j;

        for (i = 0; sentence[i] != '\0'; i++){

                if(sentence[i] != '\t' && sentence[i] != ' ' && sentence[i] != '\n' && sentence[i] != '\0'){

                        while(sentence[i] != '\t' && sentence[i] != ' ' && sentence[i] != '\n' && sentence[i] != '\0'){

                                i++;

                        }
                wrd++;
                }

        }

        return wrd;
}

right now I'm using the phrase " R2! \t\t Where \n\n are you?" (exactly as typed) and I get 5 words when there is only 4 (R2!, Where, are, you?. Yes they all count).

Help?


int countWords(char* word,int length)
{
    int iswhitespace(char c)
    {
           return c==' '||c=='\t'||c=='\n';
                   
    }
    
    enum state{WHITE,NONWHITE};
    int count = 1;
    int i ;
          int state = WHITE;
    for(i = 0 ; i < length; i ++)
    {
          char current = word[i];
          int white = iswhitespace(current);
          switch(state)
          {
          case NONWHITE:
               if(white)
               {
                          state = WHITE;
                          count++;
                          break;
               }else
               {break;}
          case WHITE:
               if(white)
               {
                          break;
               }
               else
               {
                   state = NONWHITE;
                   break;
               }
          }
    }
    return count ;}

Havent written c in quite a while but this seems to compile and work ( also you can easily add whitespace characters).

Here's a great tutorial site: http://thenewboston.org/list.php?cat=40

I directed you to the HTML/CSS bit, but it has all kinds of programming tutorials.

Really :p, had no idea ( I just installed dev c++ real quick to have a c compiler ). Which part will break ( I presume the function in the function :D ) , fixing the problem can't be that hard anyway ?

Hey guys, I've got a question about OS programming. I don't know if any of you have experience with operating system level implementation, but I'm essentially writing my own toy UNIX OS as a part of my thesis (I'm a grad student). Essentially I'm stuck implementing the execv() system call that will allow users to run programs from the cmd prompt.

Before I post an assload of code and ask for help, I'm just probing to see if there is anyone who has experience in OS programming that might be able to help out.

Tried Subversive a while ago, had problems with it, I prefer Subclipse. Tho I might check if it handles linked folders right.

Linked folders are folders not present in the project directory, created via New Folder / Advanced / Link to alternate location (Linked folder). They can point to a directory in your file system, or to a project variable. The latter can be used for relative paths, so with them it is possible to have the project file in a separate subdirectory of the svn repository.

soo i'm a 1st year cs student, and i just finished a simple (at least to you guys) project of creating conway's game of life simulation. this is our first ever "real" programming assignment and omg it feels good finally finishing it! even though it's probably the most inefficient way of doing it and it only took maybe a couple of hours, i did it nonetheless yay!

honestly, i've never felt this excited from completing an assignment possibly due to the fact that i've never spent more than 10min of completing each individual assignment. now there's this fire inside of me who wants to do the challenging (similar) exercises at the end of each chapter of our textbook!

If you want to understand what's wrong with your original function, take a close look at what happens when the loop approaches the end of the string. Discovering it yourself would be great debugging experience, but you can also peek below.

+ Show Spoiler +

Since i is incremented inside the while loop, when you re-enter the for loop, it is incremented again. When the while loop places i at the '\0' character, the for loop makes i index to the next memory location after the '\0', which could be anything. This is why an iterator should usually not be tweaked within a loop's execution unless absolutely necessary (almost never).

I can't say I've done a lot of OS level coding, but I have 7.5 ECTS credits on the subject, and have coded quite a bit of low-level C coding, so maybe I can be of some assistance.

I was wondering if anyone can give me a quick run down (just a general idea) of how one is able to reverse engineer a software (or how to be able to see the coding to it). I am interested in hacking NOT cracking.

do you just use some sort of decompiler and from the result do you just go and play around with the coding? Or is it more of you looking at the code and trying to find holes that you can try to exploit?

i am still new to the whole programming world. I am an aspiring programmer xD
sry for my noobines

edit: I am currently learning c++ and lets assume the program I am trying to hack uses C or C++
