Not sure if you edited or a mod did for sounding like a homework question, but...

Searching lists usually comes down to iterating through the whole thing or pre-sorting all the entries beforehand.

Which one you use generally comes down to efficiency, and which of the sort or search runs more often.

PHP is still ubiquitous. Applets are not so much...

What is a good HTML text editor these days? Ideally free, with standard features like bracket matching, autocompletion, etc?

SublimeText isn't free. I'd go with BlueFish or Komodo Edit.

It might as well be free.

I can't find a native function, so I think you have to do it the hard and ugly way if you want to do it in SQL:


SELECT @lat:=114.083; -- you can replace all @lat with the name of your field
SELECT @d:=TRUNCATE(@lat,0) AS d,
       @m:=TRUNCATE((@lat * 60) - (@d * 60),0) AS m,
       @s:=TRUNCATE((@lat * 3600) - (@d * 3600) - (@m * 60),1) AS s;

Atom, better version of sublime IMO

Atom is really slow though. You can see the difference if you use both of them.

Everything seems so slow when you use vim...

Indeed. gVim is even a decent implementation for windows.

For big projects I'd still use a real IDE though.

otoh vim plugins love to block the main thread while doing something in the background (because of vim's shitty architecture)

Just asking for some general advice. I really would like to work with the Grooveshark API to build some sort of executable desktop app that will work as some sort of media player synced with the user's playlists. I have a slight idea of how to do this with C#, but the whole Grooveshark API is in PHP. I really don't think C# and PHP interact with each other, so does anyone have any ideas how I can build this .exe using the API and at the same time using C#?

It doesn't really matter what the Grooveshark API is written in - under the assumption that this is the API you want to use (a link would be a good idea, next time)

Then you just fire up a HttpClient and post some JSON to the appropriate link - which would be your session ID + the base URL of the API.

Now you can do what you want through your desktop client.
