About Me

Faith-wise, I'm a (mostly) humble follower of the Lord Jesus Christ, and a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (though I usually get to church late). I attend the Beaumont 2nd Branch where I'm part of the new website team and handle…

See above, but here's a little advice too. Pick a programming language. Write a podcast ripper in that language. Add in multithreading to download multiple files at once. Add a GUI. Add playback for the completed files. Use whatever libraries you need. Lather. Rinse. Repeat. (Hm... I still need to …

Just watched Hobbit. A friend suggested that it might have been a better experience had I read the Silmarillion and some of the other supporting Tolkein books. So, having only read the Hobbit cover to cover, it was kind of jarring seeing all the extra bits. I saw it in …

Background: I'm looking to program and sell (on the Mom & Pop circuit) some internet-enabled devices. They need to be pre-configured in-store by a non-techie. The device will come online with a DHCP address. I need to find it, send it customer-specific configuration changes, then wrap it up for the …

Trying to pipe data into FINDSTR, but I'm getting whole lines and not the matching substrings. Have I asked this one before? Let's say the data takes the form of BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH "GOOD UNIQUE DATA" BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH "SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT GOOD UNIQUE DATA" …

Disclaimer: I am not a VB.NET programmer nor do I have any experience with TWAIN or WIA. Twain vs WIA http://developer.dynamsoft.com/dwt/kb/2739 TL;DR: Twain is better for scanners and requires a vendor dialog, WIA for cameras with a standard dialog. Your printer/**scanner** can do both. Here're some useful links I found …

OK, first, we need to establish your engine.

Week-old post is a week-old. Never-the-less! You can parse CSV's in 3 different ways: 1. Use a Finite State Machine to parse through the lines. https://stackoverflow.com/a/30338543 2. Use a RegEx to parse through the lines. (Technically, still an FSM, but smaller.) https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18144431/regex-to-split-a-csv 3. Use a library someone else already wrote. …

In the output scenarios you use `printf("%02d = %02d:%02d am\r\n", i, First, Last);` Each `%02d` tells the compiler you want a two-digit number with leading zeroes. However, the first `%02d` in each output line should be `%04d` since we want a number 4-digits long with leading zeroes. Try that instead. …

You've got some parenthesis hanging around in suspicious places. Better round them up. Do that by going to each left parenthesis and see where its matching right side is. One thing I recommend is eliminate a bit of Arrow-Code Anti-Pattern ( https://blog.codinghorror.com/flattening-arrow-code/ ) by getting rid of the easy possibilities …

**tl;dr**: Rust looks fun, but it'll take me a while to learn it. Do you think it's worth my time? So... [Rust](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rust_(programming_language)). As in Mozilla Rust. You know, the one that's not Go, but still wants to be hip and young. A little disclaimer: From years of firmware brainwashing, I …

Hi, Daniweb. I have this hobby project I'm playing with where I need to generate data for a MonteCarlo simulation. The data needs to fit within a bell-curve around a given mean with a standard-deviation. I'm trying to figure out which random distribution system I need to use and how …

Hi and welcome to DaniWeb! I think there's some confusion here because I'm not seeing where this would be JSP. This is a JavaScript function that would run client-side, not server-side. It uses an ActiveX object, which will only work in Internet Explorer, again client-side only. This file you're deleting …

What it says on the tin. Assume that every easily-googled effort to fix Windows 10 has failed and rollback attempts have failed. Assume I have access to a PE/LiveCD. Assume that Power -> Shift+Restart -> Troubleshoot ->??? is useless to me. (This is quite a unique situation!) Assume that I …

This post is effectively solved and needs to be marked as such, but for the reference of anyone coming along later, here's what happened: The [sin\_addr](http://www.beej.us/guide/bgnet/output/html/multipage/sockaddr_inman.html) contains a 32-bit unsigned long int. Not a string. 127.0.0.1 as a number would look like 0x7F000001 or 2130706433 in decimal. The numbers 49, …

Also, bear in mind that the iterator `(*it)` will be pointing to a **std::pair<string, PolicyRuleInfo>** object within the map. If you only want the **PolicyRuleInfo** struct, you'll want to use `it->second`.
