• Looking for interesting formula

  - by Thinker

  I'm creating a game where players can make an alloy. To make it less predictable and more interesting, I thought that the durability and hardness of an alloy should not be calculated by a simple formula, because it will be extremely easy to find extrema, where alloy have best statistics. So the questions is, is there any formula for a function where extrema can be found only by investigating all points? Input values will be in percents: 0.0%-100.0%. I think it should look like this: half sound wave

• Looping through a directory on the web and displaying its contents (files and other directories) via

  - by al jaffe

  In the same vein as http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2593399/process-a-set-of-files-from-a-source-directory-to-a-destination-directory-in-pyth I'm wondering if it is possible to create a function that when given a web directory it will list out the files in said directory. Something like... files[] for file in urllib.listdir(dir): if file.isdir: # handle this as directory else: # handle as file I assume I would need to use the urllib library, but there doesn't seem to be an easy way of doing this, that I've seen at least.

• Can an algorithmic process ever give true random numbers ?

  - by Arkapravo

  I have worked with random functions in python,ruby, MATLAB, Bash and Java. Nearly every programming language has a function to generate Random numbers. However, these apparently random sequences are termed as pseudo-random number sequences as the generation follows a deterministic approach, and the sequence seems to repeat (usually with a very large period). My question, can an algorithmic/programming process ever yield true random numbers ? The questions probably is more of theoretical computer science than just programming !

• Background image not showing up on IE8

  - by Rich Bradshaw

  I've read through other questions but to no avail - I really can't work this out. The site is http://bit.ly/cqEO53 (hoping to not have any search links to this page so shortening URL). The gradient on the footer looks great in non IE browsers, but fails to show in IE 7,8 and the dev preview. Any ideas?

• How do I upload a files to google app engine app when field name is not known

  - by Michael Neale

  I have tried a few options, none of which seem to work (if I have a simple multipart form with a named field, it works well, but when I don't know the name I can't just grab all files in the request...). I have looked at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/81451/upload-files-in-google-app-engine and it doesn't seem suitable (or to actually work, as someone mentioned the code snipped it untested).

• why don't STL ifstream and ofstream classes take std::string as filenames?

  - by vy32

  This is a complaint about STL. Why do they take filename arguments as (char *) and not as std::string? This seems to make no sense. There are two other questions on this topic: How to open unicode filenames with STL Windows Codepage interactions with C++ But seriously, this makes no sense. Are there any plans to upgrade STL?

• Big, Thick Reference Books (PHP / MySQL / Unix) [closed]

  - by Josh K

  I'm looking for in-depth reference books / guides in PHP, MySQL, and Unix. I'm aware there other other questions pertaining to good books for short references of function names, or detailed beginner guides to these systems. I'm looking for something different. I want a book that I can either use as a quick but in-depth (decent write up, not a pocket reference guide) reference to common functions (JOINS, string manipulation, Regular Expressions, etc) while also providing a detailed inner workings explanation on the system itself.

• How to tell what optimizations bjam is using to build boost

  - by Steve

  I'm building the boost libraries with bjam for both the intel compiler and vs2008, and I can't tell what optimizations are being passed to the compiler from bjam. For one of the compiler's gcc, I can see some optimizations in one of the bjam files, but I can't find the optimization flags for the compilers I care about. So, my questions are - Does anyone know where the default optimization flags are located? If they're declared within bjam, does anyone know how I can override them?

• Entity Framework 4 missing features?

  - by Roger Alsing

  I'm well aware that similair topics have been brought up before e.g. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1639043/entity-framework-4-vs-nhibernate But instead of arguments like: NHibernate have been around longer and is more mature EF4 is drag n drop and not enterprisy EF4 and LinqToSql are ... I would like to see a more detailed list of features that you consider missing from EF4. Personally, I think the lack of enum support is the biggest drawback of EF4.

• Type mismatch: cannot convert from ArrayList<Data> to MyCollection

  - by Tommy

  I've read similar questions here but I'm still a little confused. MyCollection extends ArrayList<MyClass> MyClass implements Data yet this gives me the "cannot convert from ArrayList to MyCollection" MyCollection mycollection = somehandler.getCollection(); where getCollection looks like this public ArrayList<Data> getCollection() So my assumptions are obviously wrong. How can I make this work like I would like it to

• Tuples vs. Anonymous Types vs. Expando object. (in regards to LINQ queries)

  - by punkouter

  I am a beginner who finally started understanding anonymous types. (see old post http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3010147/what-is-the-return-type-for-a-anonymous-linq-query-select-what-is-the-best-way-t) So in LINQ queries you form the type of return value you want within the linq query right? It seems the way to do this is anonymous type right? Can someone explain to me if and when I could use a Tuple/Expando object instead? They all seem very simliar?
