Q: Bash Music Player ( First Project )

Amr AymanI have finally finished creating my first real project, It's just a simple music player that can provides the user with the latest music from any site (as long as it contains mp3 files) he provides in the settings file .. It can play it, download it and has an simple settings file from which the ...

Can't help but think bashing and music don't go together.
@rolfl That's like heavy metal

Q: Ruby GUI Advanced(?) Tutorial

user41331I'm studying Ruby GUI and I'm wondering if there's no tutorial or code examples in the net - beyond those for just beginners, or, if I'm not knowing how to do the proper search...?! I'd appreciate very much any hint or sites. Thanks.

I know it's heavily offtopic
but I don't exactly know the close reason there

Ah wait, that's why there is other ;)
And already on the first item in Effective Java, I have learned new things. Definately advice everyone to read it.
@rolfl It's not that big of an issue that it is a rather old book, as long as you notice the issues: Interfaces can't have static methods, ...

This question does not appear to be a code review request within the scope defined in the help center. - is this a mod-only close reason?
@Mat'sMug Which one?

@Mat'sMug The Ruby GUI Advanced(?) Tutorial question?
20:36
yeah
Strange, I can still see it
it's closed, not vaporized! :D
Ah, I'm blind, I thought you meant that you couldn't see the question anymore
I think it is yes, because it'snot what I had put there ^^, but then I didn't have that fancy link either
anyway TTQW - later!
Please come back when you've managed to do something working in Ruby though and we can help you to improve, I personally find Code Review a very good way of learning. — Simon André Forsberg 14 secs ago

@SimonAndréForsberg Thanks for the addendum there, I was actually not 100% sure enough to pit that in, however I knew for 99% it would be offtopic on any SE site
@skiwi Just my way of helping SO don't get more trash than necessary.
I want to use some code someone else wrote in a small project of mine, but the code's been licenced under the PSF License, so I looked that license up to see if there were any special rules about using that code. Apparently the license is only supposed to be used for the Python standard library? And if you license your own code with it you're doing it wrong?
It's a 137-line Python game, I shouldn't have to try to decipher this legalese :c

Q: how many moves to make word start become word end

bazangPlease treat this as a interview at a top tech firm, and share your thoughts on how you think I did. Be honest, and leave no stone unturned. Problem: Given two words (start and end), and a dictionary, find the length of shortest transformation sequence from start to end, such that: Only one let...

Q: How do I avoid over-using the garbage collector?

GibadoI'm wondering what the best way of initializing variables so that I don't over use the garbage collector with a for-loop. Assuming the variable is only used inside the for-loop. Is it better to declare the variable outside of the for-loop? public void foo() { String tempName; for (Pers...

@StackExchange Not sure what to write on that one but I did my best.
@StackExchange I recognize that question... hasn't there been a similar one a while ago?
22:14
@StackExchange Got carried away and wrote an epically long answer. I really like it. I hope you too.

A: Data screening using Perl

amonStyle Guides The Perl community does not have a single universal style – there is more than one way to do it. But sometimes, consistency isn't a bad thing either. Here are the three important cornerstones of Perl style: A perlstyle manpage exists which explains a sensible core of a style guide...

Perl: code crap unless explicitly told otherwise.
As it is with any language. The same liberty that allows me to write crappy code allows me to craft absolutely elegant code.

Damn, I'd really like to review a question or two, but I'm just too tired...
Same here. The one bounty question is C++, but I don't have anything great to say about it.
Nevermind; it has already ended.
Right now, I'm just voting on some off-by-ones before the reload.
Shame. This post would've received more attention had it been given a better title earlier:

Q: RPG character creation implementation

raddryThis is a little yet unfinished RPG I made with C#. It runs well but I'm wondering if there are things I could improve to make it more clear or optimal. I'm basically asking for some feedback and suggestions. The program is obviously not finished but I'm asking now before I move on so I know if...

Q: Optimizations on Project Euler 34?

jshuaf 145 is a curious number, as 1! + 4! + 5! = 1 + 24 + 120 = 145. Find the sum of all numbers which are equal to the sum of the factorial of their digits. Note: as 1! = 1 and 2! = 2 are not sums they are not included. I can't figure out a fair way to optimize the upper bound from th...
