Elysian Shadows

An encryption algorithm? Or perhaps a sorting algorithm.

A bunch of Lectures from Stanford about a ton of stuff for free on Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/user/StanfordUniversity#g/p Programming Abstractions: http://www.youtube.com/user/StanfordUniversity#grid/user/FE6E58F856038C69 Programming Methodology: http://www.youtube.com/user/StanfordUniversity#g...

PC == Personal Computer; Mac == Personal Computer; ∴ Mac == PC That being said, I suggest investing millions of dollars to purchase a new IBM Roadrunner. Do not fall into the Apple's marketing, get a generic PC. You do not need Mac for any reason, there are no advantages of getting a mac. Maybe be...

What are the qualities that make an A+ student? I need help on this section of my life. I always have been a very brilliant guy, but never the model student. All my teachers have given the exact same comment regarding my academics ever since elementary: "David is has a lot of potential, he is a...

I do not know if I call it lazy but I personally think that most of the big name companies have been taking less "risks" and just repackaging previous games into the franchise. *cough*Madden*cough* I mean yes, it is guaranteed to sell to at least the fan base and more and its a lot easier ...

Just like how life is not black and white; games too have to be ambiguous. RTS games manage to have a very skewed interpretation of that due to the nature of the game play. Good things don't always happen to the good guys, why should that happen in games? Now games that are very entertaining are als...

How can I explain certain concepts like classes and inheritance? Inheritance is easier but IDK any layman's word for classes... Can I call it "containers". It doesn't quite describe it so any suggestions? Maybe objects, but thats kinda different.

Vectors:

Now this year, I am 99% certain that I will be the programming leader of my highschool robotics team, so that means I would have to raise up these fledgling programmers. That means I have to teach them wisely and practically. At first when I was learning, I never seen the practicality of classes unt...

Its just my personality type, I just have a one track mind, if I am working on a project, I just can't sleep sometimes. It annoys me when I run into an error and I can't get sleep unless I fix it. I sometimes forget to eat too.

Does the Magic Mushroom make you hallucinate?

I've learned different languages at the same time (HTML and Javascript) and done fine. But, I heard that you SHOULD learn C++ first, because if you learn C THEN C++ you must un-learn bad habits. I am learning C++ on my Mac on XCode and I am going to be getting an Arduino soon, I program that in C. ...

Its kinda old, but this has to be posted: Dreamcast 2 might come? Who knows?

I understand vectors but I don't understand how one can implement them in programming. Im in Pre Calculus and AP Physics right now, we use vectors all the time in Physics, but still can't get my head around how to use it in programming. I can make a Vector class that has the magnitude and the angle ...
