I've been on a quest to learn C++, and to learn, I've started building a small RPG skeleton to help myself learn the language. I've tried to make sure that I've followed C++ styles/standards correctly.
This is the first "part" of my development of the skeleton, and it includes on usable class, C...
Don't recreate your random engine everytime
Here:
std::random_device randomDevice;
std::mt19937 engine(randomDevice());
std::uniform_int_distribution<int> distribution(minimumExperience, maximumExperience);
This does not make it more random and can affect...
I would like to refactor that code.
def experiences
work_experience_array = @coach.delete(:work_experience)
education_array = @coach.delete(:education)
array = []
array << work_experience_array.map do |experience|
Db::Experiences::Work.new(experience.for_indexing)
end

Yesterday and today I've made a very basic syntax highlight.
It creates a function in the window object that handles part of the job:
(function(window){
var f=window.highlight = function(lang, element){
var lang_defs = f[lang];
if(!lang_defs)
{
throw n...
I want to store some user settings into a file, so that the users get the same experience on all machines they're working on.
The built-in user.config turned out to be insufficient, as I can't store Nullable values in it.
So I created a simple class for my program that stores the user settings i...
So, there's quite a few ways to do this, but, the easiest way to calculate raall the values need to add up to \$1\$.
Consider decimals as percentages, for example: \$40\%\$ would be \$0.4\$.
Which means, this needs to go/change:
var treasureItemsWeights:Object = { "1" : 5 , "2" : 20, "3" : 40...
Short answer: carry a notebook and pen - it'll give your hands something to do. You can switch both items to a single hand for handshaking purposes. You can also use them to make notes, so you'll seem (and possibly be) well-organised.
Long answer:
Don't worry about it. Kind clients will be un...
Given a bunch of latitudes and longitudes stored as Points, I would like to determine the points that are closest to each point given some maximum threshold in meters. This is my first stab at this:
DECLARE @ThresholdInMeters FLOAT = 1000000.0;
IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..#Points1') IS NOT NULL

I have a security question, if anyone can provide some guidance I'd surely appreciate it a lot.
So I have this php curl function to check if a site is online or not:

Treasure Item
The fact that you have a variable named treasureItemsWeights and that your function returns the key tells me that you might have other variables, such as treasureItemsValue or treasureItemsType and treasureItemsCount, treasureItemsPosition etc. If you do, this is a bad idea.
You s...

I have some classes that read data from tables located in an external data source.
If the table you want to read data does not exist, the client library for the external data source raises a generic exception so I have to make some tricks to know if the problem was that the table was not created...

I'm developing an online tournaments platform in which players can play single or in a team.
The tournaments have two typologies (single or team). Now I have to design the games table and I doubt how to do it. This is what I have:
