Z80's pretty interesting. It's based on the Intel 8080 instruction set, and it's mostly focused around the accumulator registers. The 8080, like the 8086 the followed it (and grew up into the architecture we all love) had 16-bit registers that could be interpreted as the high and low 8-bit values of it. So where the 8086 had registers AX, BX, CX, and DX that could each become AH, AL, BH, BL, CH, CL, DH, and DL, the 8080 and z80 CPUs have registers AF, BC, DE, and HL which can be broken into A, F, B, C, D, E, H, and L. Although F should probably not be used as a general purpose register, because it is the flags register...

By the way, do you plan on testing that z80 knowledge on real hardware at all? Because both the Gameboy and the TI-83 run a z80.

I'm not suggesting you fab a CPU or hook up some circuit, I'm suggesting that you might, for example, get a gameboy flash cart and test a few programs on device, instead of just in an emulator. Or take a Ti-83/Ti-84 and dump some assembly program onto it.

You know, that actually sounds doable and pretty tight since it's just assembling. I think the trouble is usually emulating real games on a PC rather than the other way round due to hardware quirks and timing exploitation. Would be fun playing on the gameboy again too

>>52539542
I'm a /g/entooman first and foremost, you fucking faggot, but the circlejerking on /v/ doesn't allow you have an actual conversation about the technical details of what this kid found

>>52539511
I've seen that video before. It's not quite a clean wrap around though, because the model isn't displayed back in the original world. And if you travel say 10 up, to get the model to display again you need to travel exactly 10 down.

>>52539555
Yeah I'm not quite sure of how the details work, but it seems like there's just some overflow and you get some strange results as a result

I highly doubt that Nintendo has created a massive grid that holds the same barebones world over and over again, so there has to be something wrong there

>>52539569
I'm pretty sure you need to go watch the video again m8. It tests collision detection as an int, but stores position as a float. Float has a much larger range than int. So when Mario is in the PU, his real position is the float, so he is off somewhere really far away from the actual map, out in a void. But you can still walk run jump etc. as if you were on the real map, because the float get's converted to an int using a modulo for collision detection. His explanation is actually correct.

>>52539611
Then why does it act like there isn't any obstacles if it's testing collision detection with the modulo? Wouldn't the modulo move it into an area WITH obstacles?

>>52539654
Because of the way the game calculates speed and movement, explained earlier in the video (sorry, it's actually another video of his). When you move, the game checks the spot you will be next frame. If it is collision free, Mario moves there. Because he builds up so much speed, the spot is in the same place he is currently standing, but in a different PU. It doesn't check collisions all along the route, just in 4 places. Hence, quad PU's, QPU's. He always moves a distance of 4PU's, so the collision checker will always let him move.

Watch the video you idiot, instead of trying to call out his mistakes. If you understood it, you would see that it makes sense.

>>52539727
sorry, English is not my primary language so perhaps some of the details were lost on me and as you said part of it was explained in another video

thx

>>52539744
Yeah, it's a bit more complex than wrap arounds. It's related, but not the same. If it was a wrap around, when he reached the syncing speed, you would end up back in the same map, not off in the void.

>>52539457

>implying he's not a class of his own

I'm designing a singleton in C++14.

class singleton {
    private:
    singleton();
    singleton(const singleton&)=delete;
    void operator=(const singleton&)=delete;

    static std::weak_ptr<singleton> ptr;
    static std::mutex mget;
    public:
    static std::shared_ptr<singleton> get();
};

std::weak_ptr<singleton> singleton::ptr{};

std::shared_ptr<singleton> singleton::get()
{
    std::lock_guard<std::mutex> lock(mget);
    try{
        std::shared_ptr<singleton> sptr(ptr);
        return sptr;
    }
    catch (const std::bad_weak_ptr&)
    {
        auto u=std::make_shared<singleton>();
        ptr=u;
        return u;
    }
}

I always heard that singletons are bad since they manage their own lifetime (which is typically until the running program ends). The idea here is to fix that and push the lifetime management to the returned shared_ptr-s of the get() method.

>>52540223
That's basically what a singleton is. You're saying "there will always be one and only one of this object".

>>52540199
Why do you need a shared_ptr? If it's a singleton why not just use a unique_ptr and pass either a raw pointer from get or a const reference?

>>52540199
Also, as an aside, I'd avoid shared_ptr unless you really, really, _really_ need it. shared_ptr really provides you quite a lot of rope with which to hang yourself.

Ask your favorite programming literate anything.

>>52540199
use a unique_ptr and make the get function return a reference instead
or just use static functions really

>>52540242
I'm just started learning C++14, so sorry if I'm wrong.

(I think) I need a weak_ptr inside the singleton so I can return that when it's needed. AFAIK weak_ptr and unique_ptr are not quite compatible, correct me if I'm wrong. Also I want to allow separate threads to keep multiple shared_ptr-s to the same singleton.

>>52540004
Nobody is welcome in /dpt/, idealy.

>>52540253
Besides runtime overhead?

>>52540273
Writing a class in such a way that the same instance can be shared properly is hard and not really worth the complexity unless the object is especially expensive to construct/have sitting around.

So yeah, there's the runtime overhead, but that's not really the main issue.

Ask your beloved programming illiterate anything

>>52540260
I want the following to work as it's written in the comments.

int main()
{
    { //scope1
        auto s1=singleton::get(); //singleton created

        //end of scope, shared_ptr destroyed, ref-count went to 0, singleton destroyed
    }

    { //scope2
        auto s2=singleton::get(); //singleton created
        { //scope2.2
            auto s2_2=singleton::get(); //returns a shared_ptr to same singleton

            // s2_2 destroyed, ref count went to 1
        }
        //s2 destroyed, ref count went to 0, singleton destroyed
    }
}

The idea is that the singleton manages a resource that is both expensive to create and expensive to keep in memory.

No offence i'm learning.

>>52540304
That's hardly a singleton.

>>52540304
With your approach: if it's something expensive to keep around I guess the reference counting approach should work fine.

If it actually is expensive to construct the approach isn't great because you can get into lots of situations where things grab the shared_ptr and give it up causing you to spend lots of time constructing/deleting the object.

>>52540319
As I said it's just practice. One particular use case would be that the singleton is only need for limited time across multiple threads and you want to free up memory once it's not used.

Also it's just a method to give control to client code to manage this object's lifetime.

Mate, this is C++, not Java. Performance is the name of the fucking game.

On that note, fuck adding a ton of abstract bullshit to make singletons. Just make only one of the thing, store it on the stack, pass it around by reference, and when it goes out of scope, it goes out of scope.

>>52540331
Then it's not a singleton, sue me. It can still be useful (or not). What's your definition of a singleton though.

>>52540372

>>52540353
Right, but you're the one writing the class, so you should have a pretty good idea of its performance characteristics. Really you should make that decision for the client. If they want to change that they're free to just inherit and redefine.

>>52540383

>>52540369
A singleton only has one instance of it througout the lifetime of the program and is pretty much a shitty design pattern that javafags use to get global state.

>>52540367
sure, but you really think a couple of bytes in extra memory is going to hit you performance wise unless you're on an embedded system?
what he's trying to do looks complex as shit with fuck all benefits compared to a regular singleton or factory pattern

>>52540388
Except for "lazy" singletons when they have 0 or 1 instance. They still call them singletons.

>>52538609
Learning Scheme still. It's incredible how easy Scheme has been so far and it's the first language I've ever seriously sat down and tried to learn.

>>52540367
The performance really depends on the cost of construction vs cost of cost of having instances sitting around.

And really, if you can decide between reducing programming complexity and adding a small performance improvement that still operates in the same class of big O, you should be trying to reduce complexity 99 out of 100 times.

>>52540399
Sure, but a lazy singleton still doesn't delete itself when it thinks it isn't being used anymore. It just delays construction until it is first needed.

>>52540310
wow you've spent this much time on 4chins that the outline of the posts have been burnt onto your screen

>>52540382
Well this is now up to library design. I still think there could be valid use cases for something like this. If the client only wants to use your singleton at the beginning of his program, then the traditional singleton is pretty shitty, since he can't free it. This design is more flexible with some runtime overhead though.

The only thing that's notably slower is GC
as long as you don't stress the GC the fuck out, it's as fast, and in my experience, usually faster, unless you spend 75% of your time making sure the C++ code you've written isn't slow as shit

D is quicker to write, quicker to optimise, quicker to compile and quicker to test
the only thing C++ has on it is that the very fastest possible C++ program conceivable would probably be faster than the very fastest possible D program (except in some specific cases), because, don't forget, C++ has been enormously popular for decades and the compilation process has had a lot of work done looking to optimise it

pretty sure bjarne said he wanted to add GC to it, so look forward to the advantage disappearing :^)

Help, I'm trying to do an English-Morse translator in Java, I made 2 arrays, one all the English letters and the other the Morse equivalents.

Now, It's supposed to display the first word in one line, then when it detects a " ", the next word will be printed on the next line. I declared a newWord array and I need to print the elements in the same line until the " " is detected, the way my code is now, it just prints the entire array in one line with the brackets and commas included, is there a way to print multiple array elements in one line without the commas and brackets?

String word = readLine("Enter a word: ");
        
        String[] newWord = new String[word.length()];
        
        for(int k=0; k<word.length(); k++)
            newWord[k] = " ";
        
        for(int i=0; i<word.length(); i++) {
            for(int j=0; j<=25; j++) {
                if(i!=0) {
                    if(letters[j].equals(word.substring(i, i+1).toLowerCase())) {
                        newWord[i] = codes[j];
                        break;
                    }
                }

        }

While I understand that C gives more control with printf formatting, just using cout and not getting lost in my variables, and honestly, its my fault for it, but I don't really get why it needs to be there, the scanf & before the variable. And maybe its just cause this is an old book (first edition if a modern approach) I saw some stuff about pushback and popback(?) in C++, and when I read in C that every program I wanna make do that I need to make functions for it I was like "ehh, what, I do that how?" as the book showed me that it isn't (or wasn't, again, book from the 90's) which made me slightly sad. but I guess I am learning how the function actually works.

>>52541313
>but I don't really get why it needs to be there
Why what needs to be there? printf?
>the scanf & before the variable
Because C is pass by value. If you pass a variable to a function, it's not going to get changed. You need to pass the address of the variable so the function can change it.
Once you understand pointers, it makes perfect sense.

Also a lot of your pose doesn't make sense.

" and honestly, its my fault for it, but I don't really get why it needs to be there, the scanf & before the variable" the reason I ended with a comma before that was because I meant for that to be the thing I was referring to.
what I meant to say made me sad, I was thinking faster than I was typing.
was that pushback and popback don't appear to be standard, as they seemed to be when I read about doing stack work in C++

>>52541413
>was that pushback and popback don't appear to be standard, as they seemed to be when I read about doing stack work in C++
C or the C standard library doesn't deal with data structures. You have to/get to design and implement them yourself.

>>52541413
Adding to this, while I understand pointers (on a basic level) because of the little of C++ I read a couple years back when I was originally toying with the idea of learning how to program, I just figure that telling the program "take input" and just giving it the variable name seems logical enough to me without having to give it the address since the variable already has a type and is at that address anyway... I dunno, maybe its just me.

>>52541349
>just a few characters on a few lines

I guess that makes it make a bit more sense, but then, why does C++ do it so effortlessly with cin? I apologize if this seems like an idiot question, but I will be moving to C++ after I feel confident with C

>>52541443
maybe a bit of an exaggeration but it's literally not that many characters to write int, float, SomeType instead of var, let, auto. and the percentage of lines variable declarations vs. the meat of the code is small. with type inference you aren't improving the code whatsoever.

>>52541504
>do it so effortlessly with cin?
Invisible references. C++ will sometimes pass a reference to a function, and it will sometimes pass the value, based on how the function is defined.
I think it's completely retarded and a total clusterfuck, but C++fags seem to like information hidden from them for some reason.

>but I will be moving to C++ after I feel confident with C
There is really no point in doing that. C and C++ are completely different languages. Knowing C isn't going to make you better at C++ specifically.

>>52541511
>instead of var, let, auto
You realize not all languages that have type inference use keywords for variables, right?

>Knowing C isn't going to make you better at C++ specifically

For one; they're pretty fucking similar (nigh-on identical) in syntax; so learning C teaches you the basis and root of both languages. What differs is their application; and knowing C will give you a deeper understanding of general memory management - which is useful in all aspects of programming, especially C++ since it based directly on C, rather than just influenced by it.

I think learning C before C++ is a good idea.

>>52541843
>(nigh-on identical) in syntax
Programming C in C++ is not the same as programming C++. Idiomatic C++14 is a completely different beast from C.

It is all about readability.
Operator overloads is a great example of how you can make your data structures more readable.
Say you want to do matrix multiplication. wouldn't it make sense that you made two functions (matrix*matrix, matrix*scalar, scalar * matrix)?
That is not hidden information. That is just more useful to the person using the library.

>>52541896
>>52541915
There's usually a method called "join" that will combine the elements using a given separator.

>>52541956
>>52541943

All in all, I'm saying that learning C from scratch is an easier task than learning C++ from scratch.

Going from C to C++ is a much easier transition than going from nothing to C++.

>>52541957
That gets rid of the brackets but what about the commas? Maybe I shouldn't be using arrays?

>>52542015
There should be a way to change the separator used. Just use an empty string. But yeah, I would just build the string directly.

string new_word = "";
for (i = 0; i < word.length(); i++) {
    new_word += get_code(word[i]);
}

>>52542049
I tried that but that only works when the user inputs one word, it should be able to output:
word-encrypted
2ndword-encrypted
3rdword-encrypted etc.

Anyway, thanks, I'll try the join method

>>52541956
Matrix multiplication is a terrible example for operator overloading. Does '*' mean cross product or dot product? Who the fuck knows?
There are other inherent problems with operator overloading, especially when it comes to error values.
If you do

(a * b) + c

and a * b fails, what happens? What should + c return? How will the programmer know which operation failed?
You could then say: "Well, just limit it to one operation at a time like

if ((tmp = a + b) == error)
    whatever();
tmp = tmp * c;

At that point, you could have just used a normal function and have it look every bit as good (and hide less information).
The you can bring up exceptions, but everybody knows that exceptions in C++ are a shit-show and everyone tries to pretend that they're not there.

>>52542049
>>52542072
Wait, now that I think about it would work as a nested loop, thanks again

>>52542072
>I tried that but that only works when the user inputs one word
I don't see how your code will fix that. You could just replace spaces with newlines.

>>52542110
My code gets the entire sentence, then I would replace the spaces with newlines, as you said, I just didn't know how to do that

GNo. Singletons build instances exactly and only as needed. You could have 500 singleton instance possibilities from a class and only 2 would ever created in one program, none in another, and 499 in the last.

Literally nothing. It's awful in every single respect.

Trying to create a VCS bridge webservice.

Mostly because I fucking hate git, but so many people seem to love it (or github, at least).

Syncing the repos themselves is not a big issue, but I'd like it to also handle github issues and wiki and comments and shit.

Disgusting.

>>52542509
So what's the purpose of a singleton?

>>52542509
>In software engineering, the singleton pattern is a design pattern that restricts the instantiation of a class to one object.

It's even in the name, SINGLEton. 0/10, try harder next time.

>>52538609
alright guys, Im working on a GUI for an assignment and part of that is getting input from the GUI and processing it with an object.

it looks something like this, when the dialog launches and i wanna grab the text form the input

final String username = userText.getText();
final String password = passwordLabel.getText();

I dont understand why it has to be final if I dont put it eclipse shows me an error

also If I put this into my actionlistener function for my login button it says that my JTextField and JPasswordField have to be final aswell.

anyone an idea how I can get the input because as of now it doesnt work.


if you need the code, just reply, but I think this issue is much smaller

Besides adding up to 501, if it can be instantiated more than once it is NOT a singleton.

Learning C was the best thing I ever did, I can pick up almost any language and figure it out the same day, pretty much just have to learn the syntax

Why haven't you learned C yet, /dpt/?

lel, sure

>>52542763
Because of the relatively low level of abstraction in C, the concepts you learn in it will make it much easier to pick up any (higher level than C) language because you know how it all works already, you just have to figure out the syntax.

Okay, it works now, I used your suggestion and then for each space in word I added a double space in newWord, because I still want one space between the morse codes to make them readable, then replaced the double space with new line, thanks a lot breh

         if(word.substring(i, i+1).equals(" ")) {
        newWord += "  ";
     }

println(newWord.replace("  ", "\n"));

Updated nim, weird ass segfault in my program now, only stack trace I get shows it coming from the GC. I feel cheated

>>52542763
Programming language syntax is trivial if the language paradigm aligns with the language you're experienced in. If you know how to program in procedural paradigm with the C language, you can program in procedural paradigm with any procedural language.

>>52542777
no, it's actually getting more complex the more you go high level.

>>52542777
Have fun with picking up Haskell.

how do i allocate dinamically a structure in c? i want to make a struct "student" (with string name, int age) get allocated 10 times, then when space is over, get it allocated 10 times more

>>52542814
Haskell's programming paradigm is far different to C. If you've used Scheme, ML or Erlang, basic Haskell isn't hard at all.

>>52542855
haskell was an experiment which failed. don't fall for it

Scheme has syntax to deal with procedural style programming but functional style is recommended when writing Scheme.

>>52542905
>C is simple

>>52542635
what error do you get? it should be final if the value won't change but you shouldn't have to put final.

anything else like that?

>>52542918
not really, there no function in scheme.

>>52542924
C is ridiculously simple, and that's why it's garbage. The programmer has to do the compiler's job because the language is too simple to allow the compiler to do it instead.

Implementing it is hell. There are tons of weird rules someone must take into account. If you want to take a look at a really simple language check Scheme.

>>52542971
>There are tons of weird rules someone must take into account.
such as? avoiding division by 0, integer overflow, accessing memory out of bounds, strict aliasing and what else?

>>52542971
That doesn't make it complex. Scheme is a lot more complex solely on the fact it requires a GC, let alone undelimited continuations, hygienic macros and syntax forms. Writing a C compiler is extremely easy as long as you use parser generators and don't make the mistake to believe LALR(1) is good enough.

>>52542959

okay if I dont put it final it says me this:

Cannot refer to the non-final local variable username defined in an enclosing scope

shoudl I declare the string else wher and then modify it ?

Im all out of ideas here

>>52543111
Yes, but it's still nowhere near as easy as C.

>>52543153
Does it fully support the standard?

ah, you must be doing something like this:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1299837/cannot-refer-to-a-non-final-variable-inside-an-inner-class-defined-in-a-differen

the anonymous class has its own scope, it can't use non-final local variables from the scope of the method. not sure exactly what you're doing without seeing the code but try declaring the variables in some other scope.
