  • Sorting 1000-2000 elements with many cache misses

    - by Soylent Graham
    I have an array of 1000-2000 elements which are pointers to objects. I want to keep my array sorted and obviously I want to do this as quick as possible. They are sorted by a member and not allocated contiguously so assume a cache miss whenever I access the sort-by member. Currently I'm sorting on-demand rather than on-add, but because of the cache misses and [presumably] non-inlining of the member access the inner loop of my quick sort is slow. I'm doing tests and trying things now, (and see what the actual bottleneck is) but can anyone recommend a good alternative to speeding this up? Should I do an insert-sort instead of quicksorting on-demand, or should I try and change my model to make the elements contigious and reduce cache misses? OR, is there a sort algorithm I've not come accross which is good for data that is going to cache miss?

  • Combining several static archives into a new one

    - by knight666
    I'm making a game engine for mobile devices. I want to compile my code, link it against a few static libraries and then combine my compiled code with those static libraries to form a new static library. However, my Google Fu is abandoning me. Suppose I have static libraries a.a, b.a and c.a and my code. I want to compile all that into awesome.a. How can I do that? I'm using CodeSourcery's arm-none-linux-gnueabi-ar by the way. Thanks in advance.

  • [java] Threading socket handler for two sided communication in tcp port

    - by raven
    I want to make a chat which will be programed in java. one computer will host the server and the other one will initiate the socket [tcp port]. now from what I read there should be a loop that will constantly read the socket which means it will make the code stuck. I have a button that is 'actionperformed' on mouse release, I want to know if it will work along with the loops that constantly reads the socket so that it will also send the infromation I wrote. If I must thread it, I want to know if the run() method must be void because if I thread it it will mean creating a new class, and the whole GUI is one big class which includes a text area, and it's private. also how can I extract the information from the socket directly to the text area? lets say the textarea variable is called "chatOutput". thx :)

  • Traverse multi dimensional array recusively without using foreach

    - by ejaz
    I have an array like this and the code using foreach loop. $arr = array( array ( array( 'CAR_TIR', 'Tires', 100 ), array( 'CAR_OIL', 'Oil', 10 ), array( 'CAR_SPK', 'Spark Plugs', 4 ) ), array ( array( 'VAN_TIR', 'Tires', 120 ), array( 'VAN_OIL', 'Oil', 12 ), array( 'VAN_SPK', 'Spark Plugs', 5 ) ), array ( array( 'TRK_TIR', 'Tires', 150 ), array( 'TRK_OIL', 'Oil', 15 ), array( 'TRK_SPK', 'Spark Plugs', 6 ) ) ); function recarray($array) { foreach($array as $key=>$value) { if(is_array($value)) { RecArray($value); } else { echo "key = $key value = $value"; } } } recarray($arr); I have to traverse the array using recursion and without using foreach. I would appreciate it if any one can help me

  • In a pre-commit hook - how to access/compare current and previous versions of files

    - by EthanML
    I'm trying to add to our existing pre-commit SVN hook so that it will check for and block an increase in file size for files in specific directory/s. I've written a python script to compare two file sizes, which takes two files as arguments and uses sys.exit(0) or (1) to return the result, this part seems to work fine. My problem is in calling the python script from the batch file, how to reference the newly committed and previous versions of each file? The existing code is new to me and a mess of %REPOS%, %TXN%s etc and I'm not sure how to go about using them. Is there a simple, standard way of doing this? It also already contains code to loop through the changed files using svnlook changed, so that part shouldn't be an issue. Thanks very much

  • java: communication between threads

    - by TRU7H
    I'm making a little java game in which I would have two threads (well as the FIRST step towards multithreading...), one for the logic and one for the drawing. So my question is: How can I make those two communicating which each other? Requirements: accessing variables and object from a another thread syncing them so they each complete a same number of "loops" in the same time. (the logic calculates and then the another one draws the results and the loop begins again...) So how is this achievable in java? Thanks in advance!

  • How does cross domain file (receiver) work?

    - by seatoskyhk
    So, how does it work? How come having a receiver.html can allow cross domain communication? I... just... don't understand. For example, (using Heyzap as example) <script type="text/javascript" src="http://tools.heyzap.com/external/tools/v4.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> HeyzapTools.load({ game_key: "your-game-key-here", hz_receiver_url: "http://example.com/hz_receiver.html" }); </script> and the hz_receiver.html has this content: <html> <body> <script src="/external/tools/hz_receiver.js" type="text/javascript"></script> </body> </html> so, why it will allow cross domain?

  • VB.NET take each letter of a word and display in ListBox

    - by Kaleet
    Private Sub btnWord_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnWord.Click Dim Inputter As String Dim Words As String = "" Do Inputter = InputBox("Enter word", "Enter Word") If Inputter <> String.Empty Then lstDisplay.Items.Add(Inputter) Word += Inputter.Substring(0, 1) End If Loop Until Inputter <> String.Empty ' SOMETHING GOES HERE!!!!!' lstDisplay.Items.Add("---") lstDisplay.Items.Add(Word) End Sub Here is how it works, when you click the button it displays an input box so for example type in "CAT". But I can't figure out how to get it to do C (newline) A (newline) T (newline) within the listbox. Please help! C A T - CAT

  • Java: Friendlier way to get an instance of FontMetrics

    - by Martijn Courteaux
    Hi people, Is there a friendlier way to get an instance of FontMetrics than FontMetrics fm = Graphics.getFontMetrics(Font); I hate this way because of the following example: If you want to create in a game a menu and you want all the menuitems in the center of the screen you need fontmetrics. But, mostly, menuitems are clickable. So I create an array of Rectangles and all the rectangles fits around the items, so when the mouse is pressed, I can simply use for (int i = 0; i < rects.length; i++) if (rects[i].contains(mouseX, mouseY)) { ... } But to create the rects I also need FontMetrics for their coordinates. So this mean that I have to construct all my rectangles in the paint-method of my menu. So I want a way to get the FontMetrics so I can construct the Rectangles in a method called by the constructor. Hope you understand. Thanks in advance.

  • Efficiently Reshaping/Reordering Numpy Array to Properly Ordered Tiles (Image)

    - by Phelix
    I would like to be able to somehow reorder a numpy array for efficient processing of tiles. what I got: >>> A = np.array([[1,2],[3,4]]).repeat(2,0).repeat(2,1) >>> A # image like array array([[[1, 1, 2, 2], [1, 1, 2, 2]], [[3, 3, 4, 4], [3, 3, 4, 4]]]) >>> A.reshape(2,2,4) array([[[1, 1, 2, 2], [1, 1, 2, 2]], [[3, 3, 4, 4], [3, 3, 4, 4]]]) what I want: X >>> X array([[[1, 1, 1, 1], [2, 2, 2, 2]], [[3, 3, 3, 3], [4, 4, 4, 4]]]) to be able to do something like: >>> X[X.sum(2)>12] -= 1 >>> X array([[[1, 1, 1, 1], [2, 2, 2, 2]], [[3, 3, 3, 3], [3, 3, 3, 3]]]) Is this possible without a slow python loop? Bonus: Conversion back from X to A Edit: How can I get X from A?

  • efficiently compare two BitArrays of the same length

    - by BobTurbo
    How would I do this? I am trying to count when both arrays have the same value of TRUE/1 at the same index. As you can see, my code has multiple bitarrays and is looping through each one and comparing them with a comparisonArray with another loop. It doesn't seem to be very efficient and I need it to be. foreach (bitArrayTuple in bitarryList) { for (int i = 0; i < arrayLength; i++) if (bArrayTuple.Item2[i] && comparisonArray[i]) bitArrayTuple.Item1++; } where Item1 is the count and Item2 is a bitarray.

  • Indexing a method return (depending on Internationalization)

    - by Hedde
    Consider a django model with an IntegerField with some choices, e.g. COLORS = ( (0, _(u"Blue"), (1, _(u"Red"), (2, _(u"Yellow"), ) class Foo(models.Model): # ...other fields... color = models.PositiveIntegerField(choices=COLOR, verbose_name=_(u"color")) My current (haystack) index: class FooIndex(SearchIndex): text = CharField(document=True, use_template=True) color = CharField(model_attr='color') def prepare_color(self, obj): return obj.get_color_display() site.register(Product, ProductIndex) This obviously only works for keyword "yellow", but not for any (available) translations. Question: What's would be a good way to solve this problem? (indexing method returns based on the active language) What I have tried: I created a function that runs a loop over every available language (from settings) appending any translation to a list, evaluating this against the query, pre search. If any colors are matched it converts them backwards into their numeric representation to evaluate against obj.color, but this feels wrong.

  • gprof and execl() - is it possible?

    - by Chris
    Background: I have a game (an old-school-esque MUD) which I've been attempting to profile with gprof. The documentation of gprof (on Linux 2.6) states that The profiled program must call "exit"(2) or return normally for the profiling information to be saved in the gmon.out file. Now, if I kill the server with the shutdown command, the application "returns normally" (i.e., main() returns) and I get a gmon.out to analyze. However, it's far more common to reboot the server. The reboot command does the following: Writes usernames and socket FD numbers to disc. Makes a call to execl(). The new process looks for the stored data, picks up the FDs, and moves on. I see the following error on the command line, as the whole process fails: Profiling timer expired ./program Question: Is it possible to get a gmon.out file from the execl()-calling process? Perhaps some environmental parameter to execl(), or else perhaps a different, gprof-friendly, system call to achieve the same effect (beginning a new process while preserving file descriptors)?

  • Multi dimensional array with get image data

    - by Dave
    I'm really confused with an array im making, its gotten a bit confusing to follow but i believe its the only way for me to approach what im trying to do. My idea here is to store getImageData in an array so i can link each image to an array of data. This is how i create my array: var listObj = { id: uid, extra: [ ctx2.getImageData(abposx,abposy,imgwidth,imgheight) ] }; pixeld.push(listObj); So now im trying to run through the array "pixeld" to find the uid but i don't know how the syntax should be.... this is what i tried: for (j = (pixeld.length-1); j > -1; --j){ if(pixeld[j].extra.data[3] !==0){ //line 220 matches.push(pixeld[j].id); } } The problem is i get this error: Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property '3' of undefined on line 220 I have marked which line is 220 in the for loop. Any one know what my mistake is ?

  • Linq to SQL - How to compare against a collection in the where clause?

    - by Sgraffite
    I'd like to compare against an IEnumerable collection in my where clause. Do I need to manually loop through the collection to pull out the column I want to compare against, or is there a generic way to handle this? I want something like this: public IEnumerable<Cookie> GetCookiesForUsers(IEnumerable<User> Users) { var cookies = from c in db.Cookies join uc in db.UserCookies on c.CookieID equals uc.CookieID join u in db.Users on uc.UserID equals u.UserID where u.UserID.Equals(Users.UserID) select c; return cookies.ToList(); } I'm used to using the lambda Linq to SQL syntax, but I decided to try the SQLesque syntax since I was using joins this time. What is a good way to do this?

  • C++ DWORD* to BYTE*

    - by NomeSkavinski
    My issue, i am trying to convert and array of dynamic memory of type DWORD to a BYTE. Fair enough i can for loop through this and convert the DWORD into a BYTE per entry. But is their a faster way to do this? to take a pointer to DWORD data and convert the whole piece of data into a pointer to BYTE data? such as using a memcpy operation? I feel this is not possible, im not requesting an answer just an experienced opinion on my approach, as i have tried testing both approaches but seem to fail getting to a solution on my second solution. Thanks for any input, again no answers just a point in the right direction. Nor is this a homework question, i felt that had to be mentioned.

  • Collision detection between layers in Cocos2d?

    - by ipodfreak0313
    I am making a game in Cocos2d. I have enemies that shoot, and have the character shoot. I created a separate layer for the enemies (and their bullets) and a separate layer for the character (and its bullets). The problem is, I don't know how to detect collisions between the two layers. Note, I have the Scene in HelloWorldLayer, and each of the above layers is a child of the scene. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

  • php date() stuck

    - by WAC0020
    I am getting the date from my mysql database and that date is correct but when I use the date() function the minute part is stuck a 6 minutes. My mysql is returning 2010-06-15 09:59:18 Then in php I use this code: date('M d,Y H:m A',strtotime($row[4])) ** $row[4] is from my while loop ** When I echo this out I get: Jun 15,2010 9:06 AM I also have tried converting it to unix timestamp in my sql query, does the same thing. I noticed that the hours work and the seconds work but the minutes are stuck at 6. Does anyone have any ideas on what is going on?

  • VBA for filtering columns

    - by Ampi Severe
    I have a big database-like sheet, first row contains headers. I would like a subset of rows of this table based on column values. Two issues: 1) VBA-wise I would like to loop through the columns, when the values for all necessary columns all match, copy the entire row into a new sheet. 2) The subset of rows is based on a list. This should be the first column to be looped through. For example I want all rows where the value in column A is equal to one of the values in my list. Is there any possibility to autofilter strings based on a list (column) of strings? EDIT Thanks to @Doug Glancy the autofiltering works now, so I've removed my (horrible) code and issue 1 is solved.

  • Find mininum unused value in mysql table

    - by splattru
    I have a MySQL table like this: +--------+-------+ + Server + Port + +--------+-------+ + 1 + 27001 + +--------+-------+ + 2 + 27002 + +--------+-------+ + 4 + 27004 + +--------+-------+ How you can see - here was 27003 port - but it was deleted some time ago (just for example). Is there some way to know the minimum value that is not used (higher than 27000 for example) in mysql table? Or there is no way and I need to make an separate table with all ports and column with "used" or "not used" ? Situation explanation: I am creating game hosting website, and I can use auto-increment for ports, but I will have a lot of deleted/unused ports after some time, and I want to use all of them before increasing port range. Thanks for your answers!

  • Adding Values to a Byte Array

    - by rross
    I'm starting with the two values below: finalString = "38,05,e1,5f,aa,5f,aa,d0"; string[] holder = finalString.Split(','); I'm looping thru holder like so: foreach (string item in holder) { //concatenate 0x and add the value to a byte array } On each iteration I would like to concatenate a 0x to make it a hex value and add it to a byte array. This is what I want the byte array to be like when I finish the loop: byte[] c = new byte[]{0x38,0x05,0xe1,0x5f,0xaa,0x5f,0xaa,0xd0}; So far all my attempts have not been successful. Can someone point me in the right direction?
