  • ByteStrings in Haskell

    - by Jon
    So i am trying to write a program that can read in a java class file as bytecode. For this i am using Data.Binary and Data.ByteStream. The problem i am having is because im pretty new to Haskell i am having trouble actually using these tools. module Main where import Data.Binary.Get import Data.Word import qualified Data.ByteString.Lazy as S getBinary :: Get Word8 getBinary = do a <- getWord8 return (a) main :: IO () main = do contents <- S.getContents print (getBinary contents) This is what i have come up with so far and i fear that its not really even on the right track. Although i know this question is very general i would appreciate some help with what i should be doing with the reading.

  • Sparse constrained linear least-squares solver

    - by Jacob
    This great SO answer points to a good sparse solver, but I've got constraints on x (for Ax = b) such that each element in x is >=0 an <=N. The first thing which comes to mind is an QP solver for large sparse matrices. Also, A is huge (around 2e6x2e6) but very sparse with <=4 elements per row. Any ideas/recommendations? I'm looking for something like MATLAB's lsqlin but with huge sparse matrices.

  • Can immutable be a memory hog?

    - by ciscoheat
    Let's say we have a memory-intensive class like an Image, with chainable methods like Resize() and ConvertTo(). If this class is immutable, won't it take a huge amount of memory when I start doing things like i.Resize(500, 800).Rotate(90).ConvertTo(Gif), compared to a mutable one which modifies itself? How to handle a situation like this in a functional language?

  • I need to write a program that reads angles in radians from an input disk and converts them in degre

    - by Amadou
    Write a program that reads angles in radians from an input disk le and converts them into degrees, minutes, and seconds. Output should be written into another le. A sample input le could be: # this is a comment # your program should be able to skip comment lines # and blank lines # input radian numbers could be seperated by blanks 0.0 1.0 # or by a newline 3.141593 6.0

  • Scala/Erlang use something like greenThread or not ?

    - by CHAPa
    Hi all, Im reading a lot about how scala/Erlang does lightweight threads and your concurrency model ( Actor Model ). Off course, some doubts appear in my head. Scala/Erlang use a approach similar to the old thread model used by java (greenThread) ? for example, suppose that there is a machine with 2 cores, so the scala/erlang environment will fork one thread per processor ? The other threads will be scheduled by user-space( scala VM / erlang vm ) environment. is it correct ? how under the hood that really work ? thanks a lot.

  • Any Win32 APIs to get the screenshots?

    - by Microkernel
    Hi all, I am writing an app, which needs to take the screen shots automatically (just like pressing PrintScreen button). So please suggest me how to get this done. A raw 24 bit BMP image would suffice. PLEASE NOTE: My app is in C, so any win32 APIs that can be called from my code is what I am looking for. (Sometimes back I had got an example code from codeproject which used to get the screen shots but the mouse pointer user to blink when the screen shot is taken. As multiple shots are taken this looks irritating to the user, so I don't want the mouse pointer to blink!) Regards, Chethan KR

  • Do you have any tips for comments code to keep them in step with the code?

    - by Rob Wells
    G'day, I've read both of Steve McConnell's excellent Code Complete books "Code Complete" and "Code Complete 2" and was wondering if people have any other suggestions for commenting code. My commenting mantra could be summed up by the basic idea of expressing "what the code below cannot say". While enjoying this interesting blog post by Jeff about commenting I was still left wondering "When coding, when do you feel a comment is required?" Edit: Oops. Seems to be a duplicate of this question http://stackoverflow.com/questions/121945/how-do-you-like-your-comments so sorry for the noise. Thanks to my, seemingly, SO shadow for pointing it out - wouldn't have thought I was that interesting. Now off to read the original post and see if it is relevant. Edit: I meant to emphasise the best appraoch to ensure that your comments will stay in step with the code. Maybe expressing an intent rather than the mechansim for instance.

  • 'foreach' failing when using Parallel Task Library

    - by Chris Arnold
    The following code creates the correct number of files, but every file contains the contents of the first list. Can anyone spot what I've done wrong please? private IList<List<string>> GetLists() { // Code omitted for brevity... } private void DoSomethingInParallel() { var lists = GetLists(); var tasks = new List<Task>(); var factory = new TaskFactory(); foreach (var list in lists) { tasks.Add(factory.StartNew(() => { WriteListToLogFile(list); })); } Task.WaitAll(tasks.ToArray()); }

  • Functional data structures in C++

    - by drg
    Does anyone know of a C++ data structure library providing functional (a.k.a. immutable, or "persistent" in the FP sense) equivalents of the familiar STL structures? By "functional" I mean that the objects themselves are immutable, while modifications to those objects return new objects sharing the same internals as the parent object where appropriate. Ideally, such a library would resemble STL, and would work well with Boost.Phoenix (caveat- I haven't actually used Phoenix, but as far as I can tell it provides many algorithms but no data structures, unless a lazily-computed change to an existing data structure counts - does it?)

  • How do you handle your "Project Manager"

    - by Vecdid
    I currently work for a company who recently has downsized. I do all in house work, client installs, builds,q.a, well basically all the in house work. My direct boss is VERY untechnical and lately I have found it VERY hard to deal with his lack of knowledge. The biggest issues I have had are as follows: I am on many deadlines at a time. I get stopped to put together a half fast quote as I cannot be late on the deadline, in the meantime, three support calls comes in, I give quote, time too much so they outsource it. I then I have to fix everything the vendor broke. I get asked, when an issue arrises, why is the issue occurring and explain in detail, yet that detail means absolutly nothing to him. All he cares about are deadlines, yet he is the one who schdules everything. "I am a programmer not a graphic designer, meaqns nothing to him" I was hired as a .NET programmer, yet they let a vendor choose wordpress for many sites(yeah I had to learn all about it quick) I guess I can go on and on, but has anyone had to deal with this type of project manager? What is some advice, other than finding another job. Thanks in advance, and I made this a wiki, so please don't close...

  • The Benefits of Constants

    - by onaclov2000
    I understand one of the big deals about constants is that you don't have to go through and update code where that constant is used all over the place. Thats great, but let's say you don't explicitly declare it as a constant. What benefit(s) exist(s) to take a variable that HAPPENS to actually not be changed and make it a constant, will this save on processing, and/or size of code...etc? Basically I have a program that the compiler is saying that a particular variable is not changed and thus can be declared a constant, I just wanted to know what the benefit to adding the constant qualifier to it would be, if it makes no difference then making that change adds no value and thus no point wasting time (this same scenario occurs in more then one place) going back and "fixing" all these variables. Thank you, onaclov

  • Suggestions for a PHP programmer wanting to create a timer app for an internet cafe

    - by grokker
    Hi, I was asked by a friend to make a timer app for his small internet cafe. He wants to have timers on each client PCs. The timers indicate how much time has been spent by the customer. On the PC that he uses, there's another program that has the overview of all the timers and there's a button for each client PCs that allows him to blacken out the screen. It's not automatic hence the button. The problem is I haven't done any desktop apps before so that's why I'm asking you guys (the awesome people at SO) for suggestions/advice on what language/tool to use. A little info about me: I did Java but haven't tried Swing though. I know a bit about Python and Ruby too. I don't mind learning new languages as long as I get to finish or get a prototype up and running. He doesn't mind if I could show him a prototype, it's actually for me. It gives me satisfaction to see I'm progressing. I'm not planning on asking him to pay me for doing this. Whatever he gives me is fine. P.S. He's using Windows XP

  • How hard is FizzBuzz? [closed]

    - by Josh K
    After reading various blog entries I took it upon myself to code a FizzBuzz program in PHP. class FizzBuzz { function __construct() { } function go() { for($i = 1; $i < 101; $i++) { if($i % 3 == 0 and $i % 5 == 0) { echo("FizzBuzz\n"); continue; } else if($i % 3 == 0) { echo("Fizz\n"); continue; } else if($i % 5 == 0) { echo("Buzz\n"); continue; } else { echo($i."\n"); } } } } $FB = new FizzBuzz(); $FB->go(); Created the FizzBuzz object just because I could, I complete this in under five minutes. Is it really that hard to do?

  • How much of the "Objective-C" I'm learning is universal Objective-C, and not Apple's frameworks?

    - by Chris Cooper
    This question is related to one of my others about C: What can you do in C without “std” includes? Are they part of “C,” or just libraries? I've become curious lately as to what is really contained the the core Objective-C language, and what parts of the Objective-C I've done for iPhone/OS X development is specific to Apple platforms. I know that things like syntax are the same, but for instance, is NSObject and its torrent of NS-subclasses actually part of "standard" Objective-C? Could I use them in, say, Windows? What parts are universal for the most part, and what parts would I only find on an Apple platform? If you want, giving an example of Objective-C used elsewhere as an example of what is more "universal" would help me as well. Thanks! =)

    - by Teifion
    What is the language with the lowest barriers to entry, simplest syntax, easiest setup. I'm aware that there's not a best language but I am sure that there will be one that's got a good score in all three areas. It's for teaching friends how to program, I like PHP and Python but I don't want to be narrow minded and limit myself when there is a better option out there.

  • Using pthread to perform matrix multiplication

    - by shadyabhi
    I have both matrices containing only ones and each array has 500 rows and columns. So, the resulting matrix should be a matrix of all elements having value 500. But, I am getting res_mat[0][0]=5000. Even other elements are also 5000. Why? #include<stdio.h> #include<pthread.h> #include<unistd.h> #include<stdlib.h> #define ROWS 500 #define COLUMNS 500 #define N_THREADS 10 int mat1[ROWS][COLUMNS],mat2[ROWS][COLUMNS],res_mat[ROWS][COLUMNS]; void *mult_thread(void *t) { /*This function calculates 50 ROWS of the matrix*/ int starting_row; starting_row = *((int *)t); starting_row = 50 * starting_row; int i,j,k; for (i = starting_row;i<starting_row+50;i++) for (j=0;j<COLUMNS;j++) for (k=0;k<ROWS;k++) res_mat[i][j] += (mat1[i][k] * mat2[k][j]); return; } void fill_matrix(int mat[ROWS][COLUMNS]) { int i,j; for(i=0;i<ROWS;i++) for(j=0;j<COLUMNS;j++) mat[i][j] = 1; } int main() { int n_threads = 10; //10 threads created bcos we have 500 rows and one thread calculates 50 rows int j=0; pthread_t p[n_threads]; fill_matrix(mat1); fill_matrix(mat2); for (j=0;j<10;j++) pthread_create(&p[j],NULL,mult_thread,&j); for (j=0;j<10;j++) pthread_join(p[j],NULL); printf("%d\n",res_mat[0][0]); return 0; }

  • Tricking a Unix Commandline Program into Accepting a File Stream

    - by Alan Storm
    Hypothetical situation. I have a command line program in *nix (linux, BSD, etc.). It was written so that you pass it a text file as an argument $ program file.txt Run the program, it looks at the text in file.txt. Is it possible to "trick" this program into accepting input from a file stream rather than reading a file via disk? I'm pretty comfortable using unix pipes to do stuff, but there's still something a little mysterious about their internals that make it so I can't say (definitively) yes or not to the above question.
