If you get the reference, +1 NERD POINTS TO YOU!

 

Moreover, chicken can be found in the refrigerator. Speak here of C#, C++, programming in general, and why computers and moldy meat do not mix.

I don't recognize the language but the conditional is a Hamlet reference.

Indeed! And the language is C#.

I only know C++ and Java;

C# is very similar to Java; I've dabbled in Java and C++, and I'll be taking a formal course in the latter next school year with the Digipen Institute of Technology :P

The hardest things for me when learning C++ after Java were pointers and memory allocation.

I learned C# after dabbling in C++; however, I used a C++-lite version, so... yeah.

 

EVERYONE: Do not let overt geekiness fool you. This thread is for those with too much free time.

I wish i had plenty of free time

Granted; you now are a carrot with plenty of free time. Or is this the wrong thread?

 

Random spammers welcome.

I do C++, html, done a little C#, and some java, CSS, and php.

Hey; TMD, have you updated the Dore Saidin roller yet?

Yes at: http://www.black-tower.org/btranks/doresaidin.php

Nice! Saves me a lot of time coming up with names... 'cept for the original 5 and EarthFire. Why don't you rename those to be more appropriate?

What do you mean?

Like (in my notes) Spirit (S1) is Soulsnare. And EarthFire has been renamed Heat Fissure. Stuff like that.

They shall remain as they are because I will stick to the weaves that Robert Jordan created in his books and not change them.

Hey guys I have a problem with this program I'm making.  Here's the relevant code:

 

 

void truth (faction light, faction shadow){

 

    while (light.getValue() > shadow.getValue) {

          cout << "Shadow still fails..." << endl;

          shadow.setValue(shadow.getValue() + 1);

    }

 

}

 

Ok so my code looks ok to me.  Problem is truth never terminates no matter how many iterations it goes through.  Why is the Shadow so fail?

Your problem might not be in this section of code. Try changing your while to an if though.

 

Oh and Shadow NEVER FAILS!!! WE ALWAYS PREVAIL!!!! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

Indeed; did you initialize the factions, or did you leave the Light as a null variable? Happens all the time...

My problem is I usually forget a semicolon somewhere  :-\

Ah, TMD, might I inquire as to the details of the Dore Saidin rollers, code-wise? Or should I just infer as best as I can from the page source code?

Infer from the source code. I don't feel like explaining lol.

So, to summarize, there is a random roll between 0 and the elemental level. Then, repeat this process to find the greatest roll for the higher ranks. Multiply this number by the number of elements in the weave, then multiply by the weave's value. (dunno exactly what that is; TP weaves have different strengths). Finally, subtract the opponent's rolls (which have already been multiplied by the amount of elements in the weave). Am I right? After that, it's the caster's problem.
