 | Is it possible to write a full blown operating system (such as Linux) in Python? I mean writing a kernal, and then other applications that the kernal calls, without having Windows, Linux, UNIX, or Macintosh OS installed on your computer? |

 | The world is filled to the brim with phonies, liars, backstabbers, and heads full of hypocrisy; every day is a constant attempt to bring others down in order to restore justice and satisfaction in our own hearts. And why is it that everything makes so much more sense without the …  |

| | Take a look at `http://www.cprogramming.com/tutorial/cfileio.html` for file IO in C. It is relatively straightforward, but feel free to post here again with questions that you may have. |
| | Hey all - I have searched the internet with no luck, so I finally resorted to here to ask for information. I am trying to find a way to find the time it takes to shut down, sleep, and wake from sleep for a Windows 7 install. I understand that … |
| | A `struct` is a way of combining variables into one **struct**ure. You can do so as such: typedef struct NAMEOFSTRUCT { int a; char b; float c; } NAMEOFTYPEDEF; Use `typedef` to keep your code neater, as you can now just use `NAMEOFTYPEDEF struct_name;` to create this struct in memory. … |
| | Go to download.com and search for the program Switch. It converts from m4a to mp3 and wav so thats why I like it. I can burn my songs in my iTunes in other programs.  |
| | Before I begin, I want to apologize if this is in the wrong board. Please move it if it is. A friend of mine was going to toss a Dell PowerEdge 2950 and so I gladly took it off his hands. It has a SAS bay on the front that …  |
| | This is kinda like the word association also located in the Geek's Lounge. What you do is take the song listed before you and make another song and artist with the word it it. example: 1: Heaven - Los Lonely Boys 2: Stairway to [B]Heaven[/B] - Led Zeppelin You can't …  |

| | Re: number game Use code tags, please. And try declaring [icode]tries[/icode] as an integer at the start of your application. |
| | I hate backseat moderating, but "dickheads" isn't a family friendly word. And, no. Windows isn't less secure, people just don't know how to properly use the security. You won't get virii if you stay off of malicious websites, and don't sign up for stupid newsletters. Again, if you stay as … |
| | My mouse just randomly stopped working under Vista (Home Premium). It works on the login screen but not anywhere else. It's stuck in the middle of the screen. I had to tab my way to this posting screen to type this. By the way, it's my Synaptics built in touchpad … |
| | I have to rewrite the atoi function - that is, convert a string given by a command line argument and convert it to an integer. It works for single digit numbers, but when you give it two or more digits, it only converts the first number. I'm not sure what … |
| | Running: Windows 7 Home Premium. I am not sure if I am posting this in the correct board, so please move this if I am incorrect in my post placement. I am trying to set Allegro up, for programming a 2D game in C (which is why I chose this … |
| | This is for a CS course I am taking. I'm stuck. I need to write a program that takes a number and tallies up how many cycles it takes of multiplying the digits until it is a single digit number. ie: 715 = 7 * 1 * 5 = 35 … |
| | Windows 7 - VMWare Player 3.1 I recently got Ubuntu 11.04 installed and set up nicely in a virtual machine. I have fixed resolution problems and removed the top bar from the application so it looks almost like an actual native GNOME desktop. However, as I will be using this … |
| | I stopped using Linux for a while, but recently began a computer science course in college and decided to install Ubuntu 11.04 into VMWare. I needed to download an IDE. I type: [CODE]user@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get install geany Reading package lists... Error! E: Encountered a section with no Package: header E: … |

| | TT4Titans that wasn't very helpful... You can try using msconfig (Start>Run>msconfig) and remove some stuff from start-up. If you don't know what a process is, go [URL="http://www.sysinfo.org"]HERE[/URL]. But WOW! It's surprising you're even running XP on 98MB! My worst PC was 128MB and it ran XP like a slug with … |
 | Are you kidding? Pink Floyd don't suck! Wow man, wrong guy to say that too (just kidding, but they don't suck)... I like Poison, The Alkaline Trio, Dashboard Confessional, Anberlin, My Chemical Romance and some others.  |
| | Is it possible to set a desktop background using batch? Meaning have a batch file open on start-up and then change the background to a jpeg of my choice? For example, my school's pcs are not set to retain the background after log-off. I always have to set my UNIX … |

I forgot you could embed classes such as:[/B] [code]class Heroes(): class Lords(): class Phill(): hp = 25 >>> Heroes.Lords.Phill.hp 25[/code] ------------------------------------------------------ I am attempting to write an RPG in Python. I am not worrying about the battle system or mapping quite yet, and am more focused on …  |
| | I am looking for a freeware/open source equivalent of FL Studio 7. Meaning something that can create music using the computer, and can save to mp3. It would need a guitar, bass, and drums kind of feature. I need a freeware one because, frankly, I can't afford the $1000 to … |
| | Using the tutorial found here: [url]http://www.daniweb.com/code/snippet216550.html[/url], I have begun the graphic portion of my game. I have many .gif battler sprites loaded into variables in my project. However, all of these battlers are right-facing. I need some of them to be flipped to be left-facing to be on the hero's … |

 | What do you mean "Apple has no business charging for MobileMe"? They made it, they can charge whatever the heck they want for it. And if people want to pay for it, what's the big deal? As long as people pay, Apple will charge. It's as simple as that. |
 | Online tutorials do suck, actually, except for the Javascript and other web language tutorials on w3schools, but as for VB.NET, inside of the application there are links to a bunch of tutorials on the start page. If you know VB6, VB.NET really is the same, except for a few major …  |

| | I'm pretty sure that if you don't use icons on your desktop for a certain period of time, Vista will kick in and tell you that you need to clean it up. |
| | Re: Python problem Tank() is a class defined by your application. So you would have to have: [code]class Tank():[/code] Somewhere, for your code to work. |
| | I downloaded a patch to install DirectX 9 under Wine, but where do I put the patch for it to work? |
| | What do you mean by "command line [B]stuff[/B]"? This is very vague. System() can be used to control your program, yes, using commands like "PAUSE" and "CLS," however I would suggest using something like cin.get() or cin.ignore() over System("PAUSE"). Be more specific please. |
