Does the italic syntax work in chat?
@Mathemats This is not a good fit for Code Review, as the code does not seem to work as intended. See: "However I noticed something that bothered me, which was the fact that if i were to enter a number when asked to enter a name, it would assume that number is a name." — Phrancis 37 secs ago

Q: angularjs component code style

fretsejazThis is my first open source release and I'd like to get some feedback on my code styling/organization. Implementation tips are appreciated as well. The code is for a angularjs select box that allows you to select from a list of values, or enter in free text. The control can be configured to: ...

00:37
Anyone recognize this girl?
@mjolka quick VS related question
@Mehrad sure
@Hosch250 looks like Marlin
Marilyn, you mean?
Marilyn Monroe.
@mjolka you know sometimes when you put a breakpoint multiple lines get selected. like the whole chunk will be debugged at once?
00:39
I just colored her in with PS Elements.
@Hosch250 at least the famous hair style :D
Yeah, it's her.
@Hosch250 Oh. okay. cuz the only thing was stopping me from being certain was that it was in color
you mean norma jeane ;)

Q: distinguishing user input numbers and characters (beginner)

I have currently finished my program however there were a few details that bothered me. I was supposed to create a program which can calculate average of individual marks an...

00:41
@mjolka does it ring a bell what I am talking about ?
School assignment.
@Mehrad yep
I have this return line which has heaps of code in. and breakpoint propagates and hugs all the commands
Monking
and I am receiving a cast exception in there somewhere.
@mjolka would it be any way to break into it without changing the code?
00:42
@Mehrad try right-clicking in the code, select Breakpoint -> Insert Breakpoint
Step into doesn't get the lines I am suspecting
@Mehrad that's odd about step into
@mjolka Huh? Just click the gray bar along the left side.
That sets break points.
Thanks for the help guys, migrate this thread to code review? Okay bro. — NoGlitching 17 secs ago
It is a loooooooooong code review task, I'me not sure if it belongs to SO, I suggest to migrate it to code review — chouaib 2 mins ago
@mjolka there aren't much methods in those multiple lines so step into only gets into them but the one liners get executed in on go
@mjolka tried that, but no matter which line I go with, break points get's moved to the return line and the whole lot get's selected
@Gemtastic morning man
00:45
What's up?
@Mehrad Spread your oneliners into multiple lines.
@Hosch250 turned out really well
@Hosch250 if you have this await TaskEx.Run(() => { return "foo"; }); as just one line, clicking on the gray bar will highlight the entire line
you can right click on "return" then select Breakpoint -> Insert Breakpoint to break in there
Oh, OK.
Cool.
So say I have this
return new myItem
{
    tada
    lala
    Foob
}
which line I would right click on to do the Insert BP
00:47
@Mehrad ah! i don't know if you're able to
cuz doing it from the gray strip, no matter which line the whole lot gets selected and break pointed
i'll have a play around with it
afaict it's not possible
emmm... thanks bud. last time your comment on how to catch specific exceptions was really useful and I am using it since. Then your name popped up the first when I googled and didn't find much. @mjolka
@Gemtastic not much... :)
@Mehrad if you really don't want to change the code, you could try evaluating some of the expressions in the Immediate window and see if they throw an exception
Not much apart from this code talk :P
00:50
@mjolka great point. let me give it a go
somehow, that immediate window has some serious limitations. doesn't like lambda's and all
@Mehrad ah yep :(
working on it. thanks
hope it won't let me down
@Mehrad are you able to paste the code, or is it confidential?
@mjolka the code work fully. except there is one sheet in Excel which throws the tantrum and I want to catch which line or cell is problematic without going through 1300 lines.
1300 row of excel though. not the code
i'm glad it's not the code
00:54
but the exception is thrown in some lines of code like this
                Price = table.Columns.Contains(Strings.PricingSpreadSheet_Column_NoChargeOption) ?
                    ((row.Field<String>(Strings.PricingSpreadSheet_Column_NoChargeOption) == "Yes") ?
                        0 :
                        row.Field<double?>(priceColumn)) :
                    row.Field<double?>(priceColumn),

                ConfigCode = table.Columns.Contains(Strings.PricingSpreadSheet_Column_ConfigCode) ?
                    row.Field<string>(Strings.PricingSpreadSheet_Column_ConfigCode) :
and what's the exception type/message?
There is try which catches the possible Cast exceptions since the excel file is open to modification by humans
gosh darn humans
CasTException
CaseException?
00:56
so I imagine a cell is like text in Excel and I am expecting it to be casted to <double?>
sorry InvalidCastException
01:22
Gosh darn humans is right @mjolka!
@RubberDuck they will soon be replaced by us
01:36
@Mehrad i'm absolutely stumped. might be best to rewrite the code. at least that way if you ever have a similar problem, debugging will be quicker

@mjolka good call. was thinking of the same. waiting to see if you would come up with a solution, but I think it's mainly a bad approach and even if it had a solution it would be a workaround.

Once again Resharper is amazing
@Mehrad Why is R# called Resharper?
@Hosch250 Resharper is an add-on application for VS and not to be confused with R#
Oh, OK.
I don't use it.
actually you're right
their sign is R#
I though R# is a language of some sort same as C# and F#
02:20
It is.
I was mixing the two up.
I know R is which they heavily use of number crunching but not sure R#
Whoops, that is R.
Okay. so R has a R# which I would say it's OO
No, R# as not a language.
R++ is.
I guess we got super confused in multiple things at once :)
02:22
At least, not in this list:
The aim of this list of programming languages is to include all notable programming languages in existence, both those in current use and historical ones, in alphabetical order, except for dialects of BASIC and esoteric programming languages. Note: Dialects of BASIC have been moved to the separate List of BASIC dialects. Note: This page does not list esoteric programming languages. == A == == B == == C == == D == == E == == F == == G == == H == == I == == J == == K == == L == == M == == N == == O == == P == == Q == == R == == S == == T == == U == ...
Unless, it is esoteric.
I can't find any R# language on the web, though.
BBIAB
There is R and apparently R++
and there is R# add-on for VS known as Resharper (which I don't know why they decided to not to pronounce it R(as are)-Sharp)
@Hosch250 yep. there is no R# in that list either
so I guess it's not one

Q: 3-D Space Vector

TheBestOneI wrote the following implementation of a Vector in Java. I was wondering what you folks thought of it. package space; public class SpaceVector { private final double x; private final double y; private final double z; public SpaceVector(double x, double y, double z){ ...

@Hosch250 if you haven't used it give a go. especially that you're using VS heavily. It's totally free for students so why not to miss on it
@Mehrad why cast with as as opposed to a direct cast?
02:34
Is makes sense to me, but I'm not convinced with As... Seems like a lot of extra null checking.
I saw let the exception happen and hunt down the bug when it happens.
In most cases at least. There might be some instances where you really don't know what you're being handed. Then it might make sense, but that should be rare.
Thanks for the link!

03:20
R is a fun language :)
@Legato - FYI, in Java, the bit-size of booleans is not specified. The most common JVM's implement single boolean values in a 4-byte address (the minimum available address pointer), and arrays of boolean are implemented as 1 byte per boolean.
The boolean[] array in the sieve is still a good idea, but, technically, a BitSet is the way to go to get to 1-bit-per-boolean.
boolean[] is good enough and fast enough for all uses in genral educational and 'programming-challenge' situations;
bitset allows you to have about 4 boolean values more than boolean[] because, bizarrely, Java needs some space for an array length, so you cannot ever have quite as many as 2^31 values in an array, but a bitset can go the whole way.
All the bitset saves you is about 7X the memory ;-)
bitset = bitmasking?

Q: Using self-hosted OWIN

03:35
If so... yes it takes 1/8th the memory.... but boy, you've got to be storing a lot of bits before that's even remotely significant. Do you need to store one million boolean values? Because that's 1MB of RAM vs 1/8 MB ram.
@RubberDuck I know. However, good practice about exceptions, afaik, is that if you even remotely can guess something is going to happen in your code which you could prevent it from failing, it's advised to make a programmatic check rather than trapping it in the try/except.
and again it depends how you like to program at the end of the day :)

Q: Program to break apart an int and determine how many even, odd, and zero digits

Audrie TalbotI'm trying to write a function that breaks apart an integer and outputs the count of even, odd, and zero digits. I'm having trouble with the do...while loop. It seems to be an infinite loop. I thought that q would act as a sentinel...not really sure how to stop the loop. Appreciate any help offer...

In this case I knew I have exceptions thrown and I had a code like this
            catch (InvalidCastException)
            {
                // do nothing
            }
so I decided to do something about it rather than doing nothing :D
@rolfl Thank you for clearing that up. I wouldn't want to spread misinformation! Can I still correctly note that booleans are the lightest commonly used data type available?
@CaptianOblivious, thanks for commenting straight in between my talk :D
03:45
@Mehrad i know i'm preaching to the choir, and you're doing the right thing using as here. but an easy way to think of it is: cast when you "know" the cast won't fail. use is or as when a cast might fail. use as when you want to use the result of a successful cast
@mjolka exactly. and I guess I have made quite a right choice here since the data in the excel can be tempered with and cast could be failing anytime. Loved the outcome of this conversation. I guess it will improve this chunk of my code to the right level.
@Mehrad yep -- never trust user input!

@mjolka that sounds weird
@mjolka I've had that.
Do you have a main function?
Or its equivalent?
Did you use the wrong parameters or type or something?
@JaDogg You know R?
@Hosch250 it's an add-in, so i don't have a main. i have a StartupCommand, which would be the equivalent
Alright, are you doing it right?
i must not be :)
05:22
@Hosch250 thanks, it's not that StartupCommand though
so it seems to be thrown by ServiceLocator.Current.GetInstance
Anyone want to bet on what happens when I kill the System Interrupts process in Windows?

@mjolka Sorry, was reading. Lost track of time.
OK, I was thinking, should I give all tutorials free, and charge for quizzes?
The tutorials take weeks to write, should I charge for them, or for some of them?
I could have a one-time charge for each tutorial set.
Or, I could charge for each time the user wants to access a quiz.
@Hosch250 i'm a fan of apps where you pay once and get the whole thing
@mjolka hahaha... finally { GoDanMorphy's();}
maybe provide a sample tutorial on your website and/or in a free trial version of the app, so people can assess the quality before making a purchase

I prefer pay once too.
But, with under 7k users, sure won't get reimbursed.
But, this really is just practice anyway.

Seriously, don't really have time to maintain a website too...

@skiwi Sometimes you need to take a risk, like moving to belgium ;-)

take a bullet for the team :)
@Heslacher how about no ;)
Though studying is actually interesting in Belgium
It's like way cheaper
@StackExchange I don't even understand
@Donald.McLean Greetings, User
@skiwi if that's the problem... In Germany there's no tuition fees
@Vogel612 I don't see people from here going to study in Germany en masse though, not sure if something is missing from the picture or if nobody really likes studying in Germany for whatever reason
hmm... I have no clue actually... maybe that's just for Germans??
In Sweden you actually get paid to study, moahahaha

@SimonAndréForsberg And Sweden has the nicest girls!
If only it weren't that damn cold over there... The place would be filled with students
Naaah.... Lithuanians are better.
@skiwi It is filled with students.
at least some cities
@SimonAndréForsberg I still think there'd be ever more then though :)
On my university it's really not bad at all (Biomedical ftw), until you walk into the CS department

buenos días
muchas welcome @JeroenVannevel
hey @JeroenVannevel
Visual Studio is being incompetent again this morning.
It is terrible. It can't recognize the dlls it built as being valid .NET assemblies.
It builds them just fine. The code runs just fine. But I can't inherit from a custom control because it claims none of my DLLs are .NET assemblies.
Even though they are.
I have been at work for 3.5 hours and written 0 lines of code. I have restarted two computers and one iPad a combined 11 times however.
What an incredibly shitty day so far.

At least I'm not the only one in dll hell this morning.
I feel your pain @nhgrif.
Now I can't see my mapped network drives... Wtf...
@nhgrif Check if they are built for the same platform (32/64 bit)
Furthermore, if it works and you want to ask for a better solution, post it on codereview.stackexchange.comhalloei 56 secs ago
I already resolved not being able to see SQL databases and resolved a certificate issue.
@nhgrif Then let's hope it will get better!

@Heslacher I built this project yesterday and released it to about 150 beta users. No settings have been changed since, and my email inbox isn't flooded with people with broken software.
@nhgrif Maybe the email inbox is broken too?

Q: WORM TEST please read over and tell me if it will work

Got my network drives back after a few restarts/relogs
Btw, Visual Studio claims it is unable to load any assembly... Including the assembly I am trying to add the control to (which is also the assembly that contains the control I want to inherit from)
@CaptainObvious Wow, you didn't even try.
Suggest this is moved to CodeReview where tremendously patient people reside. — OldCurmudgeon 1 min ago
Needs a move to CodeReview site. — OldCurmudgeon 12 secs ago

@Duga Shouldn't that be more Programmers related?
@CaptainObvious WTF is that...
CodeReview is not a compiler, but I'm guessing if we were, we'd refuse to compile this. — nhgrif 55 secs ago

^that made me LOL
Was having a special job dedicated to Human Compiler a real thing back in the days?
I don't know what the hell that question was, but I've just nuked it from orbit.
15:55
whoa did we get the numbering for our code blocks?
Monking Malachi'd YO!
@Mehrad Yeah. That's bad, and doing something is better than nothing, but I might let it throw and catch the issue farther up the stack. Same old story. It depends.

Q: Write to files in Delphi

NickFuryyHi I'm doing a program in delph writing in all kinds of files either text or executable. The code I have is this: var openfile: TextFile; begin AssignFile(openfile, 'test.exe'); Append(openfile); WriteLn(openfile,'[test]hi world[test]'); CloseFile(openfile); end; That...
