Blitz 3D math source7th December 2011 @JL235 - I am aware of how floating point math works -- it's not that 10 million is an odd choice but that "infinity" is expressly given a finite value. I'd probably have to call it something more like "MAX_SIGNIFICANT_VALUE" if I wanted to be able to read*snip* |

Blitz 3D math source6th December 2011 I have to admit that my favorite part of this code is the fact that infinity is defined as 10 million. |

Making an array of arrays in blitzmax?25th September 2011 BlitzMax supports two different kinds of multidimensional arrays out of the box: "Rectangular" arrays: [code] Local myArray:Int[10, 10] myArray[0, 0] = 5 [/code] or, if the size of each dimension isn't known until later: [code] Local myArray:Int[,]*snip* |

Debate - should external links open in a new tab/window?30th August 2011 I personally prefer the Wikipedia approach of giving some visual indication that the link is off-site, but otherwise not trying to control where the link will be opened. |

complex if statements.12th July 2011 jedimastersterling: that is using a stringstream, and it is the correct way of doing it in "plain" C++. Strings don't ordinarily allow the stream operators; a stringstream lets you write to / read from a string using the same operators you'd use with any o*snip* |

Gameplay: RPG combat without magic28th April 2011 If you've got a grid-based battle system then you already have a lot of room to vary attacks up a bit - there's more than one way to attack with a sword, even if you only have one type of sword. You might have a knight that can run forward n squares, slas*snip* |

Minibork13th April 2011 Ironically, I think I just broke the shoutbox replies pretty hardcore -- probably because my message contained " and '. Until I posted this message I got a huge line of MySQL errors on the list of topics to the right, and the shoutbox said that this had "0*snip* |

Random Telephone Number11th April 2011 For a quick fix, try: [code]Console.WriteLine(telephone.ToString("000-000-0000"));[/code] instead. That will pad with a zero instead of omitting the digit. |

SQL syntax error trying to insert data...30th March 2011 It might help to assign the query to a local variable first and print it out to see what your string substitution is actually created: In this case I think your problem is that you need quotes around your string values -- you need " '$_POST[Username]' " i*snip* |

PlayMyCode - Beta testers wanted19th January 2011 Sorry to necromance, but finally got a chance to play around with it. Made a game in a pretty short span of time.

c pointers?31st December 2010 That's something else entirely. Mind you, that something else is overwhelmingly more useful. Pointers to members are a strange and fascinating (mis?)feature of C++. If I had another Foo named bar, later on I could: [code] bar.*pMember = 20; [/code] Th*snip* |

c pointers?30th December 2010 In C++, unless interfacing with code in C, pointers tend to mean you're doing it wrong, since you should be using references or smart pointers. Pointers to pointers don't tend to come up all that often. Also, pointers to members: [code] int Foo::*pMembe*snip* |

c pointers?30th December 2010 You're pretty close, honestly. The main two things that offend my delicate sensibilities are: 1. You don't need to loop and read in data value at a time. One of the arguments to fread is the number of elements to read in: [code] fread(address_of_data + *snip* |
