figuring out the structure of my distribution architecture
its going to include support for keeping client software up to date and collecting bug reports
eventually i will extend it to host a P2P CDN client for serving images and videos to HTTP requests (so my http server doesn't have to serve it all)
my goal is to make the server transfer content from the main server to the CDN clients automatically based on parameters such as views in the latest hour or something like that, but it sounds like a pain to accomplish the actual transfering, keeping track of what files are and arent available on a client, verifying file integrity etc

>>52581865
why not reusing bittorrent for the distribution? It has file integrity checks, unique identifiers for files, and smart transfers. Create your own private tracker and some kind of comms channel to set priority on files based on views/likes/whatever.

k /g/ I am stuck

So when you are implementing r-tree in database you need 4 values for each entry

CREATE VIRTUAL TABLE demo_index USING rtree(
   id,              -- Integer primary key
   minX, maxX,      -- Minimum and maximum X coordinate
   minY, maxY       -- Minimum and maximum Y coordinate
);

My problem is that I have 16k gps locations (4k*4k), but the are not paired in squares.

Is there a way to automatize this?

To just get a script that will insert data and database somehow will figure out and sort 16k points into squares 2*2 gps points?

Am I missing something?

I'm starting to learn Java for a data structures and algorithms class.

I'm a bit confused, though...
Nothing I've read so far seems to indicate that I can make class function definitions in a separate file from... I guess it's still called a header?

Does Java support separate header and implementation files?

>coming from a bg in C/C++

How do I "patch" projects? Is it language specific or is there some general tool for it? A framework won't accept my pull request and I want an easy way to keep it up to date while adding in my code.

>>52583860
There are no header files, no prototypes.
Java reads in everything to see what classes, methods, variables and objects exist, then runs through again to check if it can actually use all the intended calls.

>>52583860
>Does Java support separate header and implementation files?
No

>>52583860
>Nothing I've read so far seems to indicate that I can make class function definitions in a separate file from... I guess it's still called a header?

Java doesn't have headers. This is 1996, not 1976.

google python scope
http://python-textbok.readthedocs.org/en/latest/Variables_and_Scope.html#more-about-scope-crossing-boundaries

>>52583827
It's not inconsistent. You just can't assign and create variables in the global scope from within a function without declaring them as global. However, reading them is fine.

Think about this: the statement "a = 1" creates the variable 'a' in the current scope. Always. If the current scope is a function, it does not overwrite the value in outer scopes. So you have to explicitly tell Python to modify the variable in the global scope.

>>52583955
Of course, thank you.

>>52584006
>>52584017
oh, I see. You can access global items while reading them or calling a function of them but not while assigning something to them.

imho, still inconsistent.

>>52584095
It's not inconsistent. Defaulting to local scope is the sane option. E.g., you import "import mymodule as m" and then in a function in the same file another developer writes "m = 3" inside a function. If Python wrote that value to the global scope instead of the local one, you would have that m is not a module but a number when the other developer's function executes. You would end up with weird-ass errors because of that behaviour.

Alright, I finally got off my lazy ass and started programming shit again. I'm fairly new at the more-than-simple stuff.

For now, I'm trying to properly learn Inheritance, composition, and all that OOP stuff. The composition of my objects are pretty simple, they only have a Coordinate class and a Sprite class set as public. The Coordinate class has methods to update the object's position and the Sprite has some methods to load and draw the object. Currently it just draws a rectangle because I didn't want to bother with loading random images.

The problem: right now my draw method takes coordinates. Is there a way to have it automatically take the object's coordinates without having to pass them as parameters?

Instead of doing:

Obj.sprite.draw(Object.coordinates.getX(),Object.coordinates.getY());

Which is a mouthful and also ugly, I'd rather just have

Obj.sprite.draw();

And let the method itself take the coordinates from the coordinate object present in Obj if it exists.

Almost all typedef's are a consistent lowercase style except for FILE.

>>52586524

>having a problem with multi-letter function names
Most letters are not descriptive of what a function does or what a variable represents. Single letters should never be used to name a function, and rarely be used to name a variable (in which case, convention should be followed -- w,x,y,z for coordinates; w,h,l for dimensions; i,j,k for loop counters; and n for a number of elements).

>>52586540

Are you a native French speaker? Because in English, we put adjectives and titles before nouns, not after them. C ANSI does not exist, but ANSI C does.

>>52586749
I said that I'm old. Maybe uppercase are for struct typedef.

>>52586623
>Single letters should rarely be used to name a variable
I think they work pretty well for naming a variable that a function "works" on, where the type gives you all of the information you need to know.

void object_do_thing(struct object *o)
{
   ...
}

>>52586758
It's fucking dumb that it's uppercase, though, and totally inconsistent with the rest of the standard.

size_t is a typedef, why isn't that uppercase?

>>52586824
maybe because FILE used to be a preprocessor #define hack

>>52586415
Are the problems interesting?

>>52586875
From the standard:

>The header <stdio.h> declares three types, several macros, and many functions for performing input and output.

It definitely wasn't intended to be a macro, it specifically mentions type.

>>52586373
>any other ways
Pass the whole coordinate object (as an interface that provides getY and getX functions) to the sprite.draw. Or pass the whole Obj to the sprite, for some silliness.

That gets you down to one variable. Otherwise your options are friending/letting the sprite keep a reference to the coordinate or parent object.

>>52586824
size_t is not ANSI C, size_t is shit.

>>52586950
the standard only standardized what was common practice
maybe FILE predated making pretty typedef names like file_t

>>52586950
The original C standard tried to standardise existing common practice. That's why there are several weird inconsistencies in the language. Stuff like SHRT_MIN instead of SHORT_MIN, functions they knew were complete shit like gets().
Perhaps FILE did used to be a preprocessor thing prior to ANSI C, but they made it into a type.

A C++ IRC library based on Boost with "ease of use".

What I want is whomever may be using it to just create a client object and have a simple interface to send data, get client data, and operate the client with. I'm also going to try and make sure that it's thread-safe and whatever a good async C++ library should be.

It's also part of my senior high-school degree (not sure if that is the right term), so it's programming with benefits.

Are you an idiot? This is taken verbatim from the ANSI C standard.

>The following types and macros are defined in the standard header <stddef.h> . Some are also defined in other headers, as noted in their respective sections. The types are

>which is the signed integral type of the result of subtracting two pointers;

>which is the unsigned integral type of the result of the sizeof operator; and
> wchar_t
>which is an integral type whose range of values can represent distinct codes for all members of the largest extended character set specified among the supported locales; the null character shall have the code value zero and each member of the basic character set defined in $2.2.1 shall have a code value equal to its value when used as the lone character in an integer character constant.

>>52587097
That's a fake. That's not the standard.

Alright let's get this started, going to write code compact code to fit the post so don't get triggered.

Let's say that I have, for the sake of simplicity, a class like that :

public class Action {
   public virtual void DoIt(){
   //do some basic stuff
   }
}

and a bunch of children like

public class Child1 : Action {
   public var SomeParameter { get ; set }//var for simplicity posting
   public var SomeOtherParam { get ; set }
   public override void DoIt(){
   base.DoIt();
   //do its stuff
   }
}

public class Child2 : Action {
   //this guy can have another number of params or no params at all
   //override etc.
}

I know what you're going to say but I'm not using methods because the parameters are inconsistent and even I at this point don't know how many of them the next child will have.
I'm currently using that because in another class I just want to be able to, say, store all actions in a collection, have a reference to whatever should be running this frame and just fire currentAction.Run(). Changing the action is just a currentAction = collections[id].

It works and once I'm done with a class I pretty much never have to open it anymore, but I'm wondering if there's a -better- way to do it because I feel like I'm getting lots of classes that do little with that system.

Fleshing out my new instruction set encoding.

Should I just get rid of those set bit sin the flags?
The idea behind it was so I could avoid wasting cycles on reading memory I didn't need when decoding, but would the extra bitwise flag checks and conditionals in the decoder just slow it down even more?

I might need the first two bits so the machine doesn't retrieve and store registers when it shouldn't.

>>52587339
Its an understandable feeling, but what you are doing is good. The one thing I would caution is that doIt() is a very general term ("its a class that does things") so there is a temptation to start using the Action class as an alias for any void function.

>>52587515
>pi isnt random
But someone told me every single movie ever made is in pi.

>>52587602
Yeah but I just used generic names for the sake of simplicity in the post. Most of the time I use common names like Run(), Execute() or Init() depending on the task.

After reading myself I don't understand why I feel bad for using a class somehow properly, that's kind of stupid. Feels like it's because I'm reading too much bloated classes here and there.

Anyway thanks.

i don't think anyone really knows. pi has infinitely many digits (i don't know if even that has been proved but i guess it has) but that doesn't necessarily mean you can find all possible sequences of digits in it. like if the universe is infinitely big it doesn't necessarily mean that there's going to be a planet where communism works

You would do something like this on your server:

And then do something like:

On your client.

>>52587708
This is a common myth. Not every infninite nonrepeating number has all possible digit combinations. For example, consider 0.1010010001...

It is not know if pi is normal number or disjunctive (either of which which would imply every string possible is in pi). This is an unsolved topic in mathematics.

Why haven't you upgraded to OCaml yet, /dpt/?

/dpt/, working on something with files in Java. What I'm trying to understand is how to name the filepath. Is the filepath "read" from the classpath, which is usually the directory of the project?

i.e. if I have a project called "RandomCode" which has folders application and data, application which contains the .java files and data which contains a random.txt file, can I just refer to the .txt file as "data/random.txt" or do I need to write "../data/random.txt"? Google seems to tell me it runs from the classpath, but its unclear on where the classpath is?

TL;DR: how do filepaths in java work, is there a third option outside of absolute and relative paths which starts from the root of the project, and is this what the classpath is?

Probability.

The probability of a particular 5-digit sequence occurring at a particular offset is 10^-5. The probability of it not occurring at a particular offset is 1-10^-5. Assuming uncorrelated probabilities (which is wrong, but close enough for a ballpark estimate), the probability of it not occurring at any of the first million offsets is (1-10^-5)^(10^6), which is roughly 1 in 22,000. So you'd expect around 4.5 sequences not to occur in the first million digits. Assuming a poisson distribution with lambda=10^5*(1-10^-5)^(10^6), the probability of getting 8 sequences is ~4.8%.

FWIW, the probability of every 5-digit sequence occurring in the first million digits is around 1%.

So I'm working on some C++ stuff for my CS data and structures course. I decided to take it since I needed some extra credit hours and wanted to learn some more programming.

I'm kinda struggling with what I've written so far, as I don't really understand how C++ handles structures and arrays, and when I try to read the data from this text file, it isn't exactly working out as well. There are 100 lines, formatted like this:
item, For Sale/Wanted (one of the other, price

I'll paste the code below, but I'm struggling with getting it to separate between the commas of the text file rather than spaces. (IE making it ignore commas). I think a lot of it is just me not understanding exactly 'what' I'm programming as I type. IE, I try changing the while(getline(_) to while(getline(inFile,data,',')) thinking that should make it stop at the comma, but I get a segmentation fault instead.

I don't necessarily want to be spoonfed, but I'd really like to do this right and learn from it. Any suggestions?

Nope, there are two different sizes of infinity. The smaller kind is called countably infinite, because in you can count to them. The integers are countably infinite because I can start counting : 1,2,3,4... and eventually reach any number. That's not the case with real numbers. With the reals, you cant get anywhere by counting. That's why the real numbers are considered uncountably infinite. You could say there are "infinite" more real numbers than integers.

And there are even more sizes of infinity, the whole thing is a really interesting field chock full of unsolved problems.

That's also how dimensions work.
A point has no dimension because it is not infinite
Two points connected by infinite points are a line, which is 2d(infinite points on that line). Two of these infinite distances connected make a plane, which has infinite... times infinate points, or infinite^2, and two of those infinite planes makes a 3d box, which has infinite^3 points inside it. The theory is that a 4d object would be two of these 3d "boxes" of infinity, thus infinite 3d existences linearly, which would make the 4th dimension time
Fucking math, man

>that's with pointers, right? Okay, I'll take a look although I don't quite understand them yet.

strtok is a piece of cake. You shouldn't have any trouble with it.

What's logical about not being able to write out all the digits of n when n * n = 2 or in other words, the square root of 2?

WHY CAN'T I WRITE OUT ALL THE DIGITS? I WANT TO WRITE ALL THE DIGITS OR AT THE VERY LEAST WRITE IT AS A FRACTION, BUT I CAN'T. THAT'S NOT LOGICAL AT ALL.

>>52590663
Both the 3d box and the 2d line contain the uncountably infinite points. They both contain the same number of points.

In the same vein, there are the same number of numbers between 0.00001 and 0.00002 and negative infinity and positive infinity.

Where does strtok store the token? wouldn't it need to be freed somewhere?
Is it just storing it in some statically sized buffer? what if the token is bigger than the buffer?

>>52590705
how is it not logical? why should you be able to write all the digits or write it as a fraction?

>>52590709
Between negative infinity and positive infinity? Sure. but anon said between one and infinity.

I feel like the dimensions are easier to understand as a point, a line segment, a rectangle and a cube rather than a point, a line, a plane, and 3d XYZ space (which is actually crazy, because when you think about classical mechanics, you can explain most large-scale phenomena as TXYZ space, with time being the extra dimension and you can literally figure out how things happened in reverse.

can someone give me an exact reason why this doesn't work? What happens with the %d that causes this to act so strangely? I know it has something to do with the input cache from the keyboard, so I can fix it by clearing it every loop, but I'm still unsure about the cause of the issue.

It's not storing anything.
It simply overwrites your original string with null terminators replacing every delimiter character and when you do

token = strtok(NULL, " ");

, you're just telling strtok to return a pointer pointing to the next bit of the string that isn't delimited.

>>52590962

Nice. I'll have to start tinkering with it.

You sound like one of the pythagoreans who got pissed off at the guy who discovered that the square root of 2 is irrational, and killed him.

size and capacity should be size_t, not int.

>>52590998
That's your objection to my code?
very well

>>52590998
Honestly though, don't you think there's something fishy about irrational numbers?

>>52591041
Not really. Why should our world be perfectly definable by some arbitrary system discovered forever ago? Why would our universe need to operate in a logical fashion? It's kind of weird to think that a stuff in the physical world isn't arbitrary.

Could irrational numbers be repeating but we just don't know how they're repeating?

That has to be it.

>>52590917
can no one really answer this?

>>52591020

Mate, using macros to simulate templates isn't exactly a new thing. klib does it, and it's pretty fucking good. Using size_t to represent the size of a buffer, however, is pretty much standard. If nothing else, however, the value should at least be unsigned.

>>52591041

Not at all. Consider pi. It's the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter. Given that a circle is defined as having all points along its circumference equidistant from its center, wouldn't it be a bit strange if one could find a rational number to represent this ratio? Wouldn't that make it... just a little bit flat at one section and thus no longer fit the definition of a circle?

I mean, that's no proof (there's plenty of good enough proofs out there), but surely this should appeal to common sense, no?

How might I get something like that on line 18 to expand without the space so I can do the functions like this as well?

>>52591136
you can't
you could use a macro Vector_init(char)

>>52591156
but then wouldn't I have to do

#define Vector_init(T) Vector_init##T

for every single vector function that I want?

>>52591187
(as well as having to define the functions within my define_vector(T) function obviously)

>>52591069

If they were repeating, they would necessarily be rational.

Consider a number with, say, 2 repeating digits. We'll say 9.52525252...

If we multiply this by 100, we'll get 952.52525252....

Subtracting the original number gives us 943 exactly, and we can easily see when subtracting that the repeating part (0.525252525252) is the part being subtracted.

We can generalize this by saying that if a number has n repeating digits, then multiplying it by (10^n - 1) will necessarily produce an integer, and therefore is rational.

>>52591097
But that's assuming there are an infinite number of points on a circle's circumference.

How is that even possible?

>>52591221
I mean repeating in some way we don't fully understand, I know what rational and irrational numbers are.

Anon, the definition of "repeating" is well understood. What do you mean by "repeating in some way we don't fully understand"?

>>52591223
if you take two different points there's always something in between them

>>52591223
Because a circle is not a real thing. A circle is a theoretical model of the mathematical function (x−h)^2+(y−k)^2=r^2, where X and Y are coordinates on the circle, and H and K are the location of the circle, with R being the radius.
Every single number that exists within r can be plugged in for X and Y, which is infinite given that there are infinite theoretical points between two points on a graph. Thus, there are infinite points on the circle's edge, much like there are infinite points in a line (because it really is just a bent line)
