In programming, when we say "the 7th Least Significant Bit", do we have a standard of whether it is bit 7 or bit 6 (if we start from bit 0).
Because if we say "the 2nd Least Significant Bit", it sounds like it is bit 1 (counting from bit 0 again), so if 2nd means bit 1, then 7th means bit 6, not bit 7.
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.
The certification's cost between $300-400 per exam which is pretty expensive.
I'm still a java newb but eventually I would like to get a job in the field of computer programming and I'm wondering if the Sun Java certifications would help.
Especially considering that I do not have the time or money to get a degree.
The COIN (Currency Overhaul for an Industrial Nation) Bill in U.S. Congress will soon be re-visited. One of the main items in this bill involves the elimination of the 1-cent coin from circulation. What impact do you think this will have in programming modifications?
Does it make sense, having all of the C#-managed-bliss, to go back to Petzold's Programming Windows and try to produce code w/ pure WinAPI?
What can be learn from it? Isn't it just too outdated to be useful?
I think that papers are a great information source. they generally tend to be built upon other experts investigations, and generally are short enough to transmit you great ideas in a short coffee read.
But I don't really have read many papers in this area. So I would like to start soon and I'll be glad to hear your thoughts.
So I wonder what have been the best programming paper you have read?
We currently have an iPhone app and would like to build a mobile website that has similar functionalities so it is accessible on multiple types of handsets.
what programming language should we best use for this? our app would like to use geolocation, camera/photo upload and access to the phone's contacts.
hope you can help us out!
best,

What is the best way to solve programming questions when you are givien a question to write a program, in an exam for example where you have no computer to test it. Is there a certain technique that people use to help them solve these type of written problems? Or is it all down to knowlegde of the language?
I'm wondering, what do you use for your programming box, based on Mac OS X?
What editor, file transmission client etc. do you prefer and for which purposes?
Where one can learn more about VectorScript (the Pascal-like programming languaged built into NNA VectorWorks CAD application) to create custom "plug-in" objects and tools ?
Hi,
What is a good book to learn about networking 'theory' (i.e. different layers: physical, tcp/ip, etc.). I don't want anything too technical -- just something so I can apply it to network programming.
Thanks.

Hi,
what tools do you use to create programming flowchart/documentation from VB.NET source code? There are absolutely no comments/documentation at present. I am a beginner, i.e. I tried Sandcastle but it is way over my head and could not get it going, not even with GUI.
Fatesoft's CodeVisual To Flowchart is OK but it is almost the same as the code and I still don't understand the code.
I want to make an easy to deploy Windows application and was was wondering which programming systems can create totally self contained Windows .exe files?
As a plus, if the same can be done with MacOSX and Linux from the same source this would be a bonus. I took a look at Realbasic but they have since abandoned the single .exe concept.
1- What is the best XNA book, which can teach the 2d & 3d game programming from basic to advance? Is it possible after reading that book create professional looking 3d games???
2- Any suggestion how can become professional game developer with XNA, and create cool 3d games?
3- Is it XNA industry standard for creating games?
4- Is it any work place can join as XNA game developer?
If you could organise your own programming meetup how would you organise the session so that people
had fun
learnt lots
were able to participate despite their level.
what kinds of topics, activities, challenges etc would you include (not all in one session but in general)
how would you handle differing levels?
what do you think are some important things to learn, to achieve?
Any input is greatly appreciated. Im not sure how Id mark the best answer, perhaps leave it to the community to vote for it.
Possible Duplicates:
What is the easiest language to start with?
What programming language should I choose for an independent study language?
Well as the title says what language is good for a beginner and for a hobby? I'll probably be making some games or desktop apps with a gui most likely. I'll be working in Windows and Linux. Oh and could you also give some links to tutorials for the language?
Hi all,
Currently researching Bean Shell.
I would like to get some input as to what types of programming tasks I would consider using Bean Shell?
...And what could replace Bean Shell for that task.
Thanks all,
What are some good practices for programming in R?
Since R is a special-purpose language that I don't use all the time, I typically just hack together some quick scripts that do what I need.
But what are some tips for writing clean and efficient R code?
With the interest of creating a roguelike RPG (such as Nethack, Rogue, and ADOM), which programming language would be most suitable and why?
With the language that you choose, be sure to list any libraries or facets of the language that make it particularly well-suited.
Hello!
I want to learn programming in assembler for PowerPC and ARM, but I'm unable to buy real hardware for this purpose. I'm thinking about using QEMU for that. However I'm not sure if it emulates both architectures enough well, that I'll compile and run my programs in native assembler on it?
e4x programming extension is native to Actionscript and makes sense to use it over Xpath or any other DOM interfaces. I would like to know
from flex community if they had any bad experiences like performance, etc, or any other gotchas.
