| shadeslayer | Quintasan: pong | 01:30 |
| Quintasan | shadeslayer: C question time | 01:31 |
| Quintasan | shadeslayer: You can't return a whole array from a function, right? | 01:31 |
| shadeslayer | sure you can :p | 01:32 |
| Quintasan | wtf | 01:32 |
| shadeslayer | hm, wait | 01:32 |
| Quintasan | like | 01:32 |
| shadeslayer | lemme check something | 01:32 |
| Quintasan | int[1000] function(int x) ? | 01:33 |
| Quintasan | impossible | 01:33 |
| shadeslayer | typedef it | 01:33 |
| shadeslayer | and then use the typedef as the return type | 01:34 |
| shadeslayer | though I'm not sure if this will work | 01:34 |
| shadeslayer | you'll have to try it out to check | 01:35 |
| shadeslayer | so something like typedef int[100] myAwesomeArray; | 01:35 |
| shadeslayer | and then myAwesomeArray function(int x) | 01:35 |
| Quintasan | that's fucking retarded if I may say so | 01:36 |
| shadeslayer | heh | 01:36 |
| Quintasan | shadeslayer: Let's say my function returns a pointer to an interger | 01:37 |
| shadeslayer | okay | 01:37 |
| Quintasan | and that happens to point to beginning of an array | 01:37 |
| shadeslayer | why not just point to the first element of the array | 01:37 |
| Quintasan | that's what I did | 01:37 |
| shadeslayer | or well, you can phrase that better by saying you're returning a pointer to the array | 01:37 |
| shadeslayer | right, go on | 01:37 |
| Quintasan | now, how the fuck do I iterate over that array without knowing it's size? | 01:37 |
| Quintasan | I know I can increment the pointer | 01:38 |
| Quintasan | but how the hell do I know when to stop? | 01:38 |
| shadeslayer | do you know the size of one element in the array beforehand? | 01:38 |
| shadeslayer | like, is it an array of int's? | 01:38 |
| Quintasan | well yeah, it's an array of int's | 01:38 |
| Quintasan | doing ptr+1 will actually do ptr+1*sizeof(int) | 01:39 |
| shadeslayer | yeah so int is 4 bytes right? | 01:39 |
| shadeslayer | heh | 01:39 |
| shadeslayer | yeah, so isn't that what you want? | 01:39 |
| Quintasan | I don't really know when to stop my friend | 01:39 |
| Quintasan | say I do | 01:39 |
| shadeslayer | ah | 01:40 |
| Quintasan | for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++) { cout << *ptr+i; } | 01:40 |
| Quintasan | and array is int arr = new int[50] | 01:40 |
| Quintasan | Then I will get gibbrish in the output, won't I? | 01:40 |
| shadeslayer | bbiab | 01:41 |
| shadeslayer | yes | 01:41 |
| shadeslayer | Quintasan: so, what I'd do is #define a macro called MAX_LENGTH and then use that everywhere | 01:44 |
| shadeslayer | C is fugly in that regard | 01:44 |
| Quintasan | that solution is still retarded because it kind of defeats the point of using dynamic allocation | 01:45 |
| shadeslayer | OR | 01:45 |
| Quintasan | wait | 01:45 |
| Quintasan | I think I got something | 01:45 |
| Quintasan | hmmm | 01:45 |
| shadeslayer | use structs | 01:45 |
| shadeslayer | how does that defeat dynamic allocation? | 01:45 |
| shadeslayer | your array is still dynamically allocated | 01:45 |
| shadeslayer | it's just the size that's constant | 01:45 |
| Quintasan | how about you make the array +1 and make sure the last element is something like r#@WERWRQ and you parse for that? | 01:45 |
| shadeslayer | sure, that'll work as well | 01:46 |
| shadeslayer | but | 01:46 |
| Quintasan | well the point with dynamic allocation is | 01:46 |
| shadeslayer | what if the you inserted the same value in the array somewhere | 01:46 |
| shadeslayer | like you have a array of length 50 with data | 01:46 |
| Quintasan | if you need 50 elements then fucking allocate memory for 50 elements | 01:46 |
| shadeslayer | and your terminating character is 55 | 01:46 |
| Quintasan | don't allocated memory for 2131221321 elements and use 50 of them :P | 01:47 |
| shadeslayer | and the second element in the array is also 55 | 01:47 |
| shadeslayer | Quintasan: use a linked list ? :p | 01:47 |
| shadeslayer | so much better for this case | 01:47 |
| Quintasan | hmmm | 01:47 |
| shadeslayer | you dynamically allocate each element in the list, you can traverse it easily, solves all your issues | 01:48 |
| Quintasan | the exercise was to write a program that factorizes a number | 01:48 |
| Quintasan | and my friend said they were supposed to store that shit in a array | 01:48 |
| shadeslayer | a linked list behaves like an array? | 01:48 |
| Quintasan | well, they were told to use a fucking array bro | 01:49 |
| shadeslayer | that's just idiotic :/ | 01:49 |
| Quintasan | like int arrrrrr[12312321]; | 01:49 |
| Quintasan | I told him exactly them same thing | 01:49 |
| Quintasan | well | 01:49 |
| shadeslayer | :p | 01:49 |
| shadeslayer | I mean sure, for some basic programming you can sue int array[65536] | 01:50 |
| shadeslayer | but you can't keep using that for more complex problems | 01:50 |
| Quintasan | if the array was supposed to be allocated as int arr[100] then it wouldn't be hard since you can just iterate over 100 elements to display the result | 01:50 |
| shadeslayer | right | 01:50 |
| Quintasan | but when you are supposed to use a function that returns and array a they want you to print that shit | 01:50 |
| Quintasan | TIP: the exercise has actually two parts | 01:50 |
| Quintasan | a) write that in Java | 01:50 |
| Quintasan | b) write that in C++ | 01:51 |
| shadeslayer | C++ | 01:51 |
| shadeslayer | ftw | 01:51 |
| shadeslayer | if you have to write it in C++ it's easier? | 01:51 |
| Quintasan | I think his prof is kind of silly with that since in java you can do something stupid like .toString to print the whole shit | 01:51 |
| shadeslayer | lol | 01:51 |
| Quintasan | shadeslayer: Look, you don't have toString defined for you in C, do you? | 01:52 |
| shadeslayer | nope | 01:52 |
| Quintasan | That's it | 01:52 |
| shadeslayer | but if you have to write it in C++ it's far easier | 01:52 |
| shadeslayer | because C++ has better data types | 01:52 |
| Quintasan | In Java you can just .toString and tell everyone to get the fuck out | 01:52 |
| Quintasan | like what? | 01:52 |
| Quintasan | how would you do that in cpp? | 01:52 |
| shadeslayer | vectors | 01:52 |
| shadeslayer | http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/vector/vector/ | 01:52 |
| shadeslayer | dynamically sized arrays | 01:52 |
| Quintasan | HOLY SHIT | 01:53 |
| shadeslayer | that are resized as you push more elements | 01:53 |
| Quintasan | I HAVE TO GO TO UNI IN 5 HOURS | 01:53 |
| Quintasan | FML | 01:53 |
| shadeslayer | haha | 01:53 |
| Quintasan | NIGHT | 01:53 |
| Quintasan | XD | 01:53 |
| shadeslayer | heh night | 01:53 |
| shadeslayer | Quintasan: srsly though | 01:53 |
| shadeslayer | use vectors if you have to do it C++ | 01:54 |
| Quintasan | mmkay | 01:54 |
| Quintasan | will do | 01:54 |
| shadeslayer | in C it's harder | 01:54 |
| shadeslayer | but you can use LL's in C | 01:54 |
| shadeslayer | bzr-tweet - Bazaar commit and push tweet plugin | 02:22 |
| shadeslayer | because you want to tweet when using a revision control system :S | 02:22 |
| shadeslayer | reminds me of terminal.app in OS X which allows you to tweet from the terminal but doesn't source ~/.bashrc when starting | 02:23 |
| sreich | argh, stupid twitter hlol | 02:23 |
| sreich | that's a good example of someone using something on the internet, and nobody caring about it | 02:24 |
| shadeslayer | :) | 02:24 |
| micahg | shadeslayer: why is it any different than KGB for IRC? | 02:25 |
| shadeslayer | KGB? | 02:25 |
| sreich | russian police, of course. | 02:25 |
| shadeslayer | ah that thing which is replacing CIA | 02:25 |
| sreich | duuuhh ;p | 02:25 |
| sreich | is it doing anythign/goign anywhere? | 02:25 |
| shadeslayer | idk | 02:25 |
| shadeslayer | anyway | 02:25 |
| shadeslayer | I don't view Twitter as a platform where you'd announce commit messages | 02:26 |
| shadeslayer | new features in brief, sure | 02:26 |
| sreich | i use notifico right now, it's awesome | 02:26 |
| sreich | it's got a lovely site and it Just Works with my github project. | 02:26 |
| shadeslayer | IRC is where developers hang out and it's usually useful to announce commit messages | 02:27 |
| shadeslayer | Do developers hang out like we do on IRC? | 02:27 |
| shadeslayer | erm | 02:27 |
| shadeslayer | s/IRC/Twitter | 02:27 |
| sreich | no idea | 02:27 |
| sreich | i don't twat | 02:27 |
| shadeslayer | me neither | 02:27 |
| sreich | the only thing i've used it for though is notification of amd catalyst for windows | 02:27 |
| sreich | since winderp doesn't have an update thing | 02:28 |
| shadeslayer | Twitter is where I go to unwind, IRC is where I work | 02:28 |
| sreich | or rather..it's got thousands of them ;p | 02:28 |
| shadeslayer | hehehe | 02:28 |

| konvilogger | ....either it needs to grow that dep or all our software that needs l10n does | 12:41 |
| ScottK | I think it would be fine. I'd prefer python3, but not critical. | 12:47 |
| konvilogger | ScottK: it's an upstream dep, so not much choice ^^ | 12:48 |

| apachelogger | splash has scaling diff with lightdm | 13:39 |
| sheytan | apachelogger: what do you mean? | 13:39 |
| apachelogger | both were not approved to be shipped | 13:39 |
| sheytan | i send you the back ground in diff res | 13:40 |
| apachelogger | as we have a standing policy to hold on to upstream we need to estabish agreement on whether to ship something else | 13:40 |
| apachelogger | sheytan: it's all bugged | 13:40 |
| sheytan | so it's pointless for me to send this to ML | 13:40 |
| apachelogger | ? | 13:41 |
| sheytan | we cannot put bugged stuff to the release | 13:41 |
| apachelogger | bugs can be fixed | 13:41 |
| sheytan | we have no time? | 13:41 |
| apachelogger | I do not have time to fix the bugs now and then get bitched at by people for uploading artwork that was not approved | 13:42 |

| === Adityab_ is now known as Adityab | ||
| Riddell | ScottK: so a happy ending? | 22:56 |
| ScottK | Riddell: Reasonably. They didn't get through the whole thing. What was decided is 9 months of support for regular releases and a standing symlink to the development series so people who want to stay on the development series can. | 22:57 |
| ScottK | Also it's a "regular release", an "LTS release", or the "development series". No "rolling release". Concluded that's an oxymoron. | 22:58 |
