So I am working with itextpdf and I have no fucking idea how to read the amount of "text" I can add to a rectangle, nor do I understand how to apply a new page incase the text overflows in the rectangle.

So I'm always told/reading that the biggest downside of c/c++ is memory management. But you use smart pointers for most things anyways, and even when you don't you just have to delete your pointer. Is there more to it? Do I not have enough experience?

>>60054031
yep, or you could just write a rudimentary memory manager in C, it's really hard and complicated for people to do malloc() and free()

please help me, if someone asked you to write between 300-500 LoC of C++ to show how much you know about the language and coding in general, what would you code?

preferably something that doesn't require months of research

>>60054031
well the best advice o can give is just use the stack as much as you can and let RAII do its business.

that way no need for smart pointer for everything.

>>60053318
just did number 4 in java. pls dont bully only pragramming for couple weeks now ;w;

>>60053785
But knowing C/C++ is gonna make learning almost any other language (javascript included) much, much easier. I would still recommend starting there.

void function1(int& num){ num += 1; }
void function2(int* num){ *num += 1;}

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    int number = 1;
    function1(number);
    function2(&number);
}

Are there any difference between these two functions other than syntax?

>>60054273
well, they accomplish the same but use different semantics.

one is by reference and the other is by pointer.
the big difference is the old pointer vs reference.

pointers are values, passed by values and have their own addresses.

where references are like "aliases" to variables, they share the same address, if you print the address of "number" and the address of "num" inside the function you will see that its the same.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
typedef unsigned int uint_t;
typedef struct Error { char *type; char *msg; int id; } Error;
#define API_ERROR ((Error) {"API ERROR", "An API Error has occured", 1})
#define ABI_ERROR ((Error) {"ABI ERROR", "An ABI Error has occured", 2})
#define LIB_ERROR ((Error) {"LIB ERROR", "A Library Error has occured", 3})


void throw( Error e, uint_t callLine )
{
    char *syscall;
    asprintf(&syscall, "sed -n %d,%dp %s", callLine-5, callLine+5, __FILE__);
           printf("(%s) - {%s [ID:%d]} :: invoked at line |%d|\n", e.type, e.msg, e.id, callLine);
           system(syscall);
           exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}

int main(void)
{
    throw(LIB_ERROR, __LINE__); return 0;
}

>>60054202
what os and other things are you using here

>>60054314
does the pointer in function2 automatically get deleted? I tried

void function2(int* num){ *num += 1; delete num;}

and the value of number in main was still 3. Did delete just make it so the address of number in main could be overwritten potentially allowing corrupt data?

>>60054362
you only have to delete pointers that you allocated with new (or any other allocator like malloc())

in your case, you do not delete the pointer, since it wasn't allocated in the heap (with new or malloc), so no need to delete it. just return and variable itself will be destroyed on scope end

>>60054362
Where'd you get the idea anything had to be deleted?
Nothing should ever be deleted in C++ if it's not come out of a "new" expression, and nowhere is implicit delete to be found. Besides, it's dynamically allocated memory that needs to be new'd and deleted, not the pointers that point to it per se.

Is compilation time directly proportional to the number of lines of code in your project?

>>60057102
it's directly proportional to the amount of abstraction you give it. More functions? More resolving, inlining, etc. More templates? More generation.

>>60054323
Now wrap it in a (disgusting) macro (because C lacks proper macros) so that you can omit the __LINE__ when you call throw.

Also
>syscall sed
lol

>>60054323
Just rename throw to _throw, then make a macro like

#define THROW(x) _throw(x, __LINE__)

then you can just do THROW(LIB_ERROR) instead of having to type out __LINE__ each time

Any flat file database alternatives to SQLite?
The C API is on one hand really well documented, on one hand some critical parts lack any documentation whatsoever giving you just the function signature.
And some things sometimes silently fail because no error code gets set.

What do you think of my solution for a variable that can be set once during runtime and then can not be changed?

        val = buf;
    }
    T Get()
    {
        return val;

is the consolation prize of the apathetic nihilist, who doesn't have a true fight in him to leave a mark in this world.

So he has fun. He has fun, because that's his coping mechanism. When he isn't smart enough, he mocks the "nerds", when he isn't strong enough, he mocks the "bullies", all to mask the bile in his throat, the bitter resentment, when he realizes, he is just a loser.

Humour is the elvish dance of pointless ideas for the people, who are strong enough to live life sincerely and seriously.

When he will die childless or see his nation, family conquered, beaten to submission to serve their new masters, he would break if he couldn't lull himself with the last drops of nihilism that he couldn't succeeded, and in fact no one can; that EVERYTHING is pointless, it has to be, since whenever he tried he lost.

So he says,

I haven't had to look for new clients for 11 months

you could check out the website it merged with called upwork, though their fees are way higher than elance

>>60058458

Look at this retard corrupted by Java and C++. He thinks he needs a hashmap when he only needs a simple pointer array. Not only hashmap would slow it down and require more memory, this retard wouldn't even know how to make a hash function, because he's using the one provided by the standard bloatlibrary of C++/Java and has no idea how it works.

Would there still be a path for you to get your masters at this point? How does that work if you had a low gpa in school. I hear that having experience in the field and projects to show for helps offset bad grades if you want to apply later on.Not positive though

Drugs have always been a part of the foundation of programming.

rate

char *to_lower(char *str)
{
    size_t i;
    size_t length = strlen(str);

    char* lower = malloc(length + 1);
    lower[length] = '\0';

    for (i = 0; i < length; i++ ) {
        lower[i] = tolower(str[i]);
    }

    return lower;
}

can you do better?

Oh sorry, I couldn't see through your anonymity.

Is there any way to improve the coherency of a markov chain? Right now I'm just using a simple frequency table, but I want to generate more coherent sentences.
I assume it would require considering words further back then 1 word back.
I'd rather stay away from neural networks if possible.

Trying to build an autohotkey script to let me spam voice lines in overwatch, it's inconsistent in game but not in anywhere else that I tested it, what am I doing wrong?

$8:: 
    Loop 60 {
        Send 9
        Sleep 4900
        }
    
return

It should be pressing '9' every 4900 milliseconds 60 times but it's inconsistent. Please help.

>>60058963
Just count adjacent words. Should give you something more solid than just looking backwards.

C, C++, Rust.

>>60058998

SPARC Assembly

>>60059026
nah, because then it wouldn't work at all
probably autohotkey holds the key down for 1ms or something
find a way to hold it down for 45ms instead of using "send"

>>60058992
ASM is the only answer.

>>60059056
Alright, I'll try. Thanks for the feedback. Though it works in small bursts and then starts and stops again so I feel like that might not be the problem.

Got a programming competition on Friday and I'm brushing up on modulus, triangles and sorting data.

It's really not anything major - aside from printing triangles using asterisks I have no idea what kind of programming issues triangles pose.

>>60059256
Given a irregular polygon represented by a list of 2d points (X, Y) calculate the area of the polygon.

>>60059296
but the competition is about triangles not polygons

>>60059296
unsolvable because there's different polygons you could create using the same set of points
although, you could ask for the maximum or minimum area among possible polygons
