So, just got done a draft (which is required) of a programming homework and I realised how managing pointers is complicated.

The goal is simple: make a module to add something to a dynamic list where that list has data and each elements has a pointer to the next entry (this is done so that adding stuff anywhere in the list is much better than an array).

Doing it is much more complicated to understand. You have to assign some pointers and if you do it wrong, you loose the data so it's just very confusing and you really need to slow down and check stuff to get it.

Plus, it;s confusing to get that a pointer points to a variable so its value is an address.....I knew that part before, but messing with it is still confusing.

Though, I guess I would get used to it after messing with them, but it's fun when this is so complex to challenge my brain, I really like this :)

Your stuff sounds interesting, but makes no sense to me. So props for figuring this stuff out.

Also hi.

hi :)

I'll try to keep it VERY basic, but it can be confusing easilly, so please bare with me.

Programs uses variables. They can contain different stuff of different types (like text or numbers) that is a value. You pretty much use these variables for.....well many things such as basic math.

Pointers are variable, except their values is special. Instead of being of a simple type (like a number), they contain the memory address of another variable. They literally "point" to a variable

This might sounds straight forward, but it can be really confusing when you realise how powerful they are. You could tell a pointer to point to the address of a variable, you could ask that pointer the value of the variable it points to (that part is hard to get) and you can even tell a pointer to point to the same thing as another pointer.

Add all of this and it becomes quite......fun to mess with these in the real world :)

Just finished cleanup duties in my house, I removed hilarious amounts of dust from my room once again, while I prepare some space for my Sailor Moon figures that are in office, ready to be picked up.

I'm thinking about going to programming classes, I already know more about computers than most other kids in my grade-

There needs to be an invention that acts like a self-automatic vacuum cleaner, sucking up nearby dust in the air. I'd buy that.

Where the hell do you live in, a haunted volcano?

Don't you live in Canada?
I live by a fountain of youth I found in Canada. It's in a cave in a dormant volcano. Atleast i'll never be cold or lonely here cause the poltergeists are fairly friendly.

If you do, I hope you are ready.

Would you all go to this school?
The more pictures of HHD you share, the more I start to remember the days I was addicted to Habbo Hotel.



Did anybody else play this in the past? This used to be my tween social life.

I would pay a lot for that; living in a city with desertic weather means endless dust covering everything in my house even if I close the windows.

Programming is fun......if you have fun doing it. it;s really simple because tbh, it;s NOT easy, there;s sometime in my homework I have been stuck on stuff that I had to figure out, but man, the feel when you're done is just.......ahhhhhhhh

I remember one project was to set up some RNG to have simple shapes drawn on a specific window, although they gave you the code for drawing the things, you need to randomise the parameter to give it to them like the position, color and what shape it is.

Randomising itself isn't hard, you just use functions included with the language, but the fun part is limiting them. You want your screen to look "pleasant" and not having like a giant circle hiding everything. I had so much fun I messed with the rgb parameter to have it max green, it was beautiful :)

Like, the best thing I love about programming is the core is VERY simple to get. Every programs are literally composed of 3 things: sequence, loops and alternatives (stuff that happen upon a condition being met). The fun part is when you put these together, it's like chess, most can understand the basic rules but in practice.....it's so complex.

I used to play Habbo Hotel a lot, not sure why I stopped
I think I stopped when I started college 5 years ago.

I logged in a couple of times since then to see how much has changed. Somehow, it manages to change a lot, yet look the same simultaneously.

To think I used to steal credit from my mum's phone to get in-game cash. :p

I feel like I remember you, but at the same time, I see a different person.

Didn't you used to be a bird?

I just found a new avatar. Man, I think this is my favorite one so far. I'm probably going to go back to Mighty soon enough though.
So, what do you guys wanna talk about? Maybe some :4sonic: discussion? INB4 Sonic games and the fanbase sucks.

The first thing I wanna make in Super Mario Maker is a recreation of New Super Mario Bros.'s rendition of Bowser's Castle
That level was great, man.

I decided to get a nostalgia trip and listen the classic Pokémon OST of the Kanto Saga while thinking of a posible series ending scenario; If the Pokémon anime reaches its end (which is still very unlikely anyway) the final battle music piece appearing in the series should be the Kanto Trainer Battle Theme, better known as "Burning Battlefield".

Not only is a throwback but also it is one of the best battle themes, heartpumping, intense and the guitar really gives that cool sense of urgence.

Somehow, I can't imagine an ending for the anime series. I only imagine it just abruptly stopping after a season ends because it got cancelled, due to [insert businessman reasons here]. Like any other cancelled show.
