  • Static and Dynamic Scooping Problem

    - by Devyn
    Hi, I'm solving following code in Static and Dynamic Scooping. I got following answer but I need someone to confirm if I'm correct or not since I'm a bit confusing. I really appreciate if anyone can explain in simple way! Static => (1)8 (2)27 Dynamic => (1)10 (2)27 proc main var x,y,z; proc sub1 var x,z x := 6; z := 7; sub2; x := y*z + x; print(x); ---- (2) end; proc sub2 var x,y x := 1; y := x+z+2; print(y); ---- (1) end; begin x := 1; y:=3; z:=5; sub1; end

  • Why isn't LISP more widely used?

    - by Chris
    I've heard a lot of people espouse the capabilities of LISP and its omnipotent macros. If LISP is such a great language, why isn't it being adopted more? What problems is LISP facing that is holding it back from (re)emerging as popular language? Is it something about LISP itself ("those brackets!" isn't the answer, is it?!), or its competitors (e.g. the dominance of Java, .NET)?

  • How do you learn a class hierarchy quickly?

    - by rsteckly
    Hi, Something I don't enjoy about programming is learning a new API. For example, right now I'm trying to learn Windows Identity Foundation. Its frustrating because I'm going to spend the bulk of the time learning how a few classes work and actually only write several lines of code. In .NET, there are so many types that I seem to spend more time hunting around in msdn for a class than writing code. It also interrupts my workflow while I'm working because I have to type a little bit than look something up. Obviously, I don't have to do this for the basic classes. Whenever new things come though there is definitely some looking up to do. Then I often don't reuse that class enough to really review it or bring it into action. I'm wondering if anybody out there has a found a way to memorize (or look up more efficiently) these object model hierarchies?

  • What is a good programming language for testers who are not great programmers?

    - by Brian T Hannan
    We would like to create some simple automated tests that will be created and maintained by testers. Right now we have a tester who can code in any language, but in the future we might want any tester with a limited knowledge of programming to be able to add or modify the tests. What is a good programming language for testers who are not great programmers, or programmers at all? Someone suggested LUA, but I looked into LUA and it might be more complicated that another language would be. Preferably, the language will be interpreted and not be compiled. Let me know what you think.

  • checking whether 4 points in a plane define a square ??

    - by osabri
    how to check whether 4 points in the plane define a square? what's the function which given a point and a value of the area of a square as input parameters returns four squares(define a corresponding type) with sides parallel to the x axis and y axis this how i start: #include <stdio.h> #include<math.h> struct point{ float x; float y; } typedef struct point POINT; struct square{ struct point p1; struct point p2; struct point p3; struct point p4; } typedef struct square SQUARE; int main() { int point; printf("point coordinate"); printf("\n\n"); printf("enter data\n");

  • Projects/Challenges for learning programming

    - by DMan
    Not sure if this has been asked before, and I'm making this a wiki... Anyways, I'm sure you've heard of Project Euler. My question is if there are any other sites like this? You know, more challenges and things for programmers to hone their skills? I like Euler but it's strictly math-based, and I'd like to expand it a little to other topics.

  • If-statement with logical OR

    - by exiter2000
    public class Test{ public static void main(String args[]){ int a = 0; int b = 1; int c = 10; if ( a == 0 || b++ == c ){ a = b + c; }else{ b = a + c; } System.out.println("a: " + a + ",b: " + b + ",c: " + c); } } Ok, this is Java code and the output is a: 11,b: 1,c: 10 And I believe the C acts same as Java in this case That is because second condition(b++ == c) would never executed if the first condition is true in 'OR' operator. There is a "NAME" for this. I just don't remember what it is. Does anyone know what this is called?? Thanks in advance

  • Why people do not like OOP? [closed]

    - by Gabriel Šcerbák
    I do not understand why people choose C++ over Smalltalk in past and why Java over Python or Ruby. What is it that ties people so much to the procedural programming and makes it so difficult to go "all the way" to object oriented programming? What makes OOP hard? Should not objects be an abstraction which is easier to grasp for people, i.e. a more natural one than procedures? Is education the problem (because people tend to learn procedural programming before object oriented)?

  • What programming langauge is this

    We're trying to script a cad program, and this is the example for controlling the date in our design slugs, but I don't even know what language it is to know what to do with it. ! LIBEDATE def &d$ &ret$ set &d$ = rstr(`/`,` `,#d$); set &ret$ = word(&d$,2),`/`,word(&d$,1),`/`,subs(word(&d$,3), -2, 2)

  • "Directly accessing" return values without referencing

    - by undocumented feature
    Look at this ruby example: puts ["Dog","Cat","Gates"].1 This will output Cat as ruby allows me to directly access the "anonymous" array created. If I try this in PHP, however: echo array("Dog","Cat,"Gates")[1] This won't work. What is this called, not only concerning arrays but all functions? Where else is it possible? Feel free to change the question title when you know how this "feature" is called.

  • What is the weirdest language you have ever programmed in?

    - by sfoulk526
    For me, it was Forth, way back at the end of the eighties! Yes, almost prehistory. But I was an un-degree-ed programmer, unable to afford college, self-taught C and Assembly, and not enough experience to open doors. I was invited to work in software engineering, my dream job by the engineering manager of my company, but...I had to do it in Forth, and the company was willing to teach me. The position was my start into embedded systems programming, and man did I learn a lot! Like, just how easy C and Assembly language REALLY could be! But it was a good journey, and though I never coded again in Forth, my fear of not being able to learn C and Assembly proficiently disappeared... ;-)

  • Looking for Programming Language that allows you to change true and false.

    - by Maushu
    For my curiosity sake I'm looking for a dynamic object oriented language that allows you to change true to false and vice versa. Something like this: true = false, false = true; This should also affect any conditional statements, therefore 42 == 42 should return False. Basically, with this premise, nothing in the language would be safe from the programmer. Is there any language like this?

  • programming language implemented in pure python

    - by iamgopal
    hi, i am creating ( researching possibility of ) a highly customizable python client and would like to allow users to actually edit the code in another language to customize the running of program. ( analogous to browser which itself coded in c/c++ and run another language html/js ). so my question is , is there any programming language implemented in pure python which i can see as a reference ( or use directly ? ) -- i need simple language ( simple statements and ifs can do )

  • Does Lua support Unicode?

    - by TimK
    Based on the link below, I'm confused as to whether the Lua programming language supports Unicode. http://lua-users.org/wiki/LuaUnicode It appears it does but has limitations. I simply don't understand, are the limitation anything big/key or not a big deal?

  • Appropriate high level language to deal with binary data

    - by fortran
    Hi, I need to write a small tool that parses a textual input and generates some binary encoded data. I would prefer to stay away from C and the like, in favour of a higher level, (optionally) safer, more expressive and faster to develop language. My language of choice for this kind of tasks usually is Python, but for this case dealing with binary raw data can be problematic if one isn't very careful with the numbers being promoted to bignums, sign extensions and such. Ideally I would like to have records with named bitfields that are portable to be serialised in a consistent manner. (I know that there's a strong point in doing it in a language I already master, although it isn't optimal, but I think this could be a good opportunity to learn something new). Thanks.

  • Do you think functional language is good for applications that have a lot of business rules but very

    - by StackUnderflow
    I am convinced that functional programming is an excellent choice when it comes to applications that require a lot of computation (data mining, AI, nlp etc). But is it wise to use functional programming for a typical enterprise application where there are a lot of business rules but not much in terms of computation? Please disregard the fact that there are very few people using functional programming and that it's kind of tough. Thanks
