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'm fairly new to programming and from learning I have seen different ways of formatting code, comments, etc; and have been recommended on different techniques.
I mostly program in C#, C++, and Java so I want to know what is the the best way to layout code so that if other people where to go through it, they would be impressed by how simple and easy to understand it is.
I would like to know the same thing for commenting as well.
I have just recently graduated from High School and I am looking for something productive to do over the summer. I was thinking of possibly learning a new language that can give me an edge in school or a good project to pursue that will look good on my resume for future jobs. Also how would I go about getting a job right out of high school or interning for a company for the summer?
Thanks in advance.
Given that someone has almost an equal understanding of coding(java, php, etc) and web designing(css, xml, photoshop) and wants to create a functional site. Which generally would be more time-consuming.
There is obviously lots of considerations...but in general
Just curious, because i am learning everything from books and now putting coding and design into practice and the css is kicking my *.
I'm learning jQuery-UI, and would like to put together a good looking page, so I'm looking at base2.css from the themeroller site.
Q: Is there anything anyone can tell me about base2.css?
Is there any documentation on it?
How much is specific to only the themeroller site itself, and how much of it is useful for sites that use themeroller themes?
A friend of mine, who studies game development at an university, is currently learning programming in OpenCL. What would be a simple project that teaches the most important aspects of OpenCL and can be finished within about 50 - 100 hours?
Dear All,
I need to parallelize a CPU intensive Java application on my multicore desktop but I am not so comfortable with threads programming. I looked at Scala but this would imply learning a new language which is really time consuming. I also looked at Ateji PX Java parallel extensions which seem very easy to use but did not have a chance yet to evaluate it. Would anyone recommend it? Other suggestions welcome.
Thanks in advance for your help
Bill
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?
Are there any overheads to using the following sytax:
Form1 myForm = new Form1();
myForm.Show();
As opposed to:
Form1 myForm;
myForm = new Form1();
myForm.Show();
When I was learning VB6, I was told doing the quivelent in VB had an overhead - is the same true in .NET?
I have to prepare a comparison between the following technologies to present it to my Project Manager, but I fell that I'm lost, so if any one can help I will be thankful
I want to compare between them in the following areas:
the support of online video streaming
the budget of using each one
Learning Time will be needed to learn the technology
Which one is the standard and will target a lot of users
The support if I found any problem
Bugs and security issues
connection to DB, SOA and web services
supporting of multi player
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.
Hi,
I have started learning Ruby recently and I was trying out the following piece of code.
a=[1,2]
b='slam dunk'
a.each { |b| c=a*b; puts c;}
I am getting the following output. I have no clue why. I expected an error or something to be thrown. Can someone explain me why this happens?

I am just learning Core Data on iPhone and the tutorial I am following says to create a new file and select NSManagedObject as the template. However, in Xcode 3.2.2 it seems to be gone. Is there any way to get it back or some kind of workaround?
Thanks in advance!
Here's an example of opening and reading data from a TCP socket. Is there a a popen() call or equivalent that can start a child process and read its output?
void setup() {
c = new Client(this, "127.0.0.1", 12345); // Replace with your server's IP and port
}
void draw() {
if (c.available() > 0) {
input = c.readString();

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 learning JPA from this tutorial.
I have some confusions in understanding the following annotations:
@Basic
@Embedded
Fields of an embeddable type default to persistent, as if annotated with @Embedded.
If the fields of embeddable types defualt to persistent, then why would we need @Embedded
I'm currently learning EJB and as I understand when client gets a stateful session bean the server keeps it in memory(or passivates it) until the client removes the bean. Pretty simple, except nowhere I have seen any examples of how the client can actually remove the bean. How do you do that other than shutting down your client application? Or do I just have to implement a reset method in all my stateful beans if I want to start over?
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 recently began learning C++ in order to reach people w/o .net. I need to run my program in the background(without any visual indication to the user so no window or cmd). I know there a various methods to do this In C#, but I don't know how to do this in C++ (specifically Dev-C++). Any help is greatly appreciated.
Where do filesystems like Reiser, NFS, etc store the file tables? We're looking at writing our own filesystem, and wondering if we should use a single file to hold it all using btree's or use something out there.
Any advice? This is more a learning exercise than anything.
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
From an asp.net perspective (C#)

Hi there,
I am writing some learning tests (i.e. what's the answer for...; choose correct options...). Now my question is, how should I store them. SQL db seems quite an overkill, but I really don't know what would be the best choice if I wanted to select random subset of questions etc. Perhaps some simple xml files?
Thanks for advice.
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.
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?
