Linked Lists Made Easy

Hi everyone,

If anyone out there has trouble grasping the idea of Linked Lists. Here is something that helped me.

The very thought of Linked lists and Stack and Queue and so on, was enough to make me tremble. Someone told me to check out the BTP 300 website to gain a better understanding of what linked lists were.

Believe me, if you check this site out you will not regret it, in fact you will thank me.

By the way there are a lot of other topics covered in the site which you can look at as well. Here is a link to the rest of the site

Have fun.

ANSWER to SVN at SCHOOL

Okay everyone I've figured it out. Just sign in to putty or SSH whichever you prefer.
Then type:
1. mkdir foldername
2. cd foldername
3. svn checkout ("repository")

The word repository should be replaced with the address of the repository. In this case "svn://zenit.senecac.on.ca/oop344".

Thank you and happy SVN'ing.

SVN at school, or on SSH

I came to school to study.
The first thing I tried to do is print out the notes from the school computers, only to realize that the GUI version of SVN doesn't exist at school. I looked around and found that there is a version of SVN installed on Putty and SSH. The only thing I have to do now is discover a way to use it.
If anyone has any insight, please shed some light.

BTW, If I figure out the solution I will keep you posted.


Thank you

A Stab at the Delete Key or DEL_KEY

Hi everyone in OOP Nation, I took the liberty of writing the switch for the DEL_KEY in the CIOL.C CODE. I hope you all take a look and give me some feedback on whether there are any bugs or not.

Here it is:
case DEL_KEY:
for(i=*offset+*curpos;str[i] != 0;i++){
str[i] = str[i+1];
}
if(*curpos != fieldlen - 1){
while(str[i] != 0){
str[i]= str[i+1];
}
}

Thanks for Blogging

Solution to Delete in CIOL.C

I think I found a solution to the problem in the CIOL.C Code that makes the backspace button behave like the delete button.

Here it is, let me know of any bugs, I would appreciate it.


case BACKSPACE_KEY: /* bug, when at *curpos is zero, backspace does what delete key does */
for(i=*offset+*curpos-1;str[i] != 0;i++){
str[i] = str[i+1];
}
if(*curpos != 0){
(*curpos) --;
}
else if(*curpos == 0){
(*curpos) = 0;
(*offset)--;
}

First Challenge - OOP344 - Armin Kumarshellah

I Realize this is a little late, but I had to do it to prove to myself that I'm not a total slacker. I also know that it is not the shortest piece of code but if you have any suggestions, I welcome your advice. Thank you.



void GetInt(char *strint, int val) {
int x=1, i=0, k=val;
for(i=0;k>x;i++){
x*=10;
}
x/=10;
for(i=0;x>=1;i++){
k/=x;
val -= (k*x);
strint[i]=(k+48);
k=val;
x/=10;}
}

C code when blogging - Tips for html

when writing a blog in which you want to add C code; for example:
a simple "for" statement, the html code will not show anything after the "<" sign. That is because the "<" sign denotes special character in html. Therefore when you want to write a C code in html, you must substitute the < sign with "&" followed by "l" followed by "t" followed by the semi-colon.

you can find more information about which symbols you can and can't use in html by going to W3SCHOOLS

Hope This Helps.. HAPPY CODING

ISO Reader - no cd required

As most of the people in Seneca know, whenever you download something from the ACS website, you receive it in .iso format. Most people will try to burn the image on a CD, which is fine, but some of the files are too big to fit on a normal CD. A better way to open this image would be to use a program called DAEMON Tools. you can simply download and install this program, it will appear on the bottom right of your screen(in windows), in the toolbar. Right click the icon and click on mount image. Then located the iso file and press okay. VERY Simple and easy to do.

you can get daemon tools from this website:

Welcome to my first blog

Hello friends, my name is Armin. I would like to take this opportunity to welcome all of you to my first ever blog, and I would also like to thank you for stopping by.

I have to admit, at first I was very intimidated by blogs, primarily because I didn't understand the concept. Not that the concept is hard to grasp, but I think I can blame it on my own laziness and unwillingness to learn it. Anyway, now that I am attempting it, all that apprehensiveness has virtually disappeared. I guess, like most things in life, the first step is always the hardest.

Now that I am familiar with the concept of blogging, you can expect to hear a lot more from me. The second challenge that I must overcome, is finding something worth writing about. Maybe that's the hardest step.
