Hi, I am learning the Opengl graphic programming at Eclipse. Can someone tell me the difference between GLUT application and SDL application, so that I can dig into either one of them? Tks.
I started learning vim today and installed it using
sudo apt-get install vim
Now, when I try to do something like :5dd it gives me the not an editor command error. I'm not sure why this is.
Am I doing anything wrong? I looked at tutorials and everywhere I look I see that 5dd is a valid command.
I'm trying to choose a tool for creating UML diagrams of all flavours. Usability is a major criteria for me, but I'd still take more power with a steeper learning curve and be happy. Free (as in beer) would be nice, but I'd be willing to pay if the tool's worth it. What should I be using?
I'm learning CodeIgniter and I come from Microsoft Visual Studio so I'm used to the auto complete feature. I've been using notepad++ so far but I wonder if anyone knows an editor that works better with CodeIgniter.
I would love to see features like:
Right-click - Add new model
Right-click - Add new view
Autocomplete with CodeIgniter helpers and libraries
I'm learning JavaScript, and I can't understand why you'd make methods that aren't 'privileged,' that is, that aren't defined in the constructor but rather the class' prototype.
I understand the idea of encapsulation and all, but you never encapsulate parts of a class from the rest of it in most of the OO world.
In my search for a good, freely available resource that will teach me C++ I stumbled on http://www.learncpp.com/.
My question is for intermediate to experienced C++ programmers...
Does this site seem to be a good resource for a beginner to learn C++ from?
I've gone through the first few section of the site, and I feel like I am starting to grasp the language, but being a beginner in C++ I really could be learning things all wrong and have no idea.
I am a .NET webdev using ASP.NET, C# etc... I "learned" javascript in college 5+ years ago and can do basic jobs with it. But I wonder if it is useful to become proficient in it.
Why should I learn Javascript?
Is it more advantageous then learning JQuery or a different library?
I was working with the Action Delgates in C# in the hope of learning more about them and thinking where they might be useful.
Has anybody used the Action Delgate, and if so why? or could you give some examples where it might be useful?
I am looking for good beginners material on Prolog, both online and printed. I am not only interested in 'learning the language' but also in background and scientific information.
Hi,
Is adding / removing HttpModules and HttpHandlers at runtime from a website a good idea ?
I am looking at ways to make my website as dynamic as possible without uploading changed content all over again. Something like config files.
Rule engines exist, but learning them seems like a pain. I might be wrong in my perspective. Please suggest possible ways to change logic in the code at runtime.
I am programming in Ruby and have wanted to learn about matrices but I can't find any resources for actually learning about them. Are there any good tutorials on matrices and programming? It would be nice if it would be in ruby but other languages are fine too.
What are the best resources do you recommend for learning php debugging?
Is there any specific book, screencast, blog post or article that you really found useful?
I'm keen on learning about bioinformatics.
I am ideally looking for a short course introduction, with some practical tasks I can get my teeth into immediately to see if there is any interest in it for me.
I already have a good understanding of molecular biology, so I should be able to skip most of the foundational work.
Any suggestions?
Hello, I want to do a class thats accepts anything ordered and prints greater. (I'm just learning so I know it's a bit useless)

I know that it can't be written by this style in scala, but I don't know how to write it properly... Do anybody know?
I'm going through a phase where I'm not being productive at all. I find it hard to justify to myself getting paid six figures to sit in front of my computer and act busy. Management is completely disengaged, and the users as well. What do you do in this type of situation? I've taken to learning some deeper aspects of .Net and software construction in general, but don't like the feeling that I'm stiffing my employer.
I'm learning traditional Relational Databases (with PostgreSQL) and doing some research I've come across some new types of databases. CouchDB, Drizzle, and Scalaris to name a few, what is going to be the next database technologies to deal with?

I'm sorry for asking yet another "best [insert-technology] book".
I know a bit of MVC, I want to start a project in MVC 2 and a good book would be really helpful.
Usually, after a while, people come to a consensus what are the top 2-3 books for learning a given technology.
Have you read any ASP.NET MVC 2.0 book? If so, how was it?
How can I start to use SQL with Visual Studio. I use it just for SQL learning .
I don't want to install a big pack of SQL server 2005 :)
Can I ?
thanks in advance for reading this :)
Let's not go so far as to say that I'm paranoid, but I've been spending hour after hour learning how to prevent SQL injections (and XSS for what it's worth).
What I'm wondering is that a SQL injection doesn't seem like it would do permanent harm to my database if I've made daily backups. Doesn't importing yesterday's copy of my tables just restore them and then I can be on my merry way?
Sorry if this is quite noobish to you, but I'm just starting out to learn Python after learning C++ & Java, and I am wondering how in the world I could just declare variables like id = 0 and name = 'John' without any int's or string's in front! I figured out that perhaps it's because there are no ''s in a number, but how would Python figure that out in something like def increase(first, second) instead of something like int increase(int first, int second) in C++?!
Are there any good tutorials or resources online for learning HTML5? I already know HTML I am just looking to learn about the other things in HTML5.
Thanks in advance!
I've been playing around with C# console applications for about a year and I want to move on to creating GUI applications. I have never done any GUI development besides basic Java applications, but I want to continue using C#. Should I start learning Windows Forms or jump straight to WPF? Is there a huge difference? Does WPF build on top of Windows Forms or are they totally different?
Hi,
I am learning some embedded programming. I am using Linux as my platform and I want to create a daemon program that will check if a particular device(magstrife, keypad, etc) is active. Like for example, my daemon program is running in the background, then when I make a keypress event, my deamon app will do something.
What implementation should I do to create this app? And how can I check the event of the devices?
Thanks.
