Q: Basic Pokedex in C++

So I recently started learning C++ about a week ago, and I made a bit of progress. In honor of Pokemon Go releasing, I decided to make a pokedex with the original 151 pokemon. So far I have 120 or so of them in there and it works PERFECTLY! (Thank goodness). I believe my code could be much more e...

c++

Mast

16:08

@CaptainObvious That's some pretty sensible code.

Dan Pantry

although the name2 in the constructor.. is that standard in C++?

I'm going to guess you can't use this in the constructor because the object isn't fully initialized yet. Right?

skiwi

@Mast Well, I don't really like hard-coding, but it's a start :P

Mast

@skiwi The alternative would be an unwieldy vector.

EBrown

@Mast Or File IO

We all know how that goes in C++

Vogel612

this is command alpha.... who the heck authorized usage of cluster nukes?

EBrown

Mast

@EBrown Pretty good actually.

Vogel612

Mast

Dan Pantry

EBrown

Command alpha, we have confirmed target acquisition. Recommending precision strike.

N3buchadnezzar

16:12

quickly tries to mention something on topic

Dan Pantry

no, seriously, I am wondering about that C++ code

Can you not use this in the C++ constructor?

Mast

@DanPantry You don't want to do that.

Vogel612

are we decided on that huge SQL Question with an unhealthy amount of case statements?

Dan Pantry

in C# if you want to assign stuff to an object in the constructor you're free to do so, you just don't want to leak this

Mast

In C# you use a different methodology when it comes to things like that.

EBrown

16:13

@Vogel612 I'm not decided on anything. I have commitment issues.

Mast

C++ is more back-to-basics, write-it-like-you-feel-it.

EBrown

Sorry @DanPantry, wrong message.

@Mast Since you seem to be one of the more interested users in Khronos, what do you think I should make a development goal after the .5alpha release?

@syb0rg Is it cross-platform at .5alpha?

syb0rg

@Mast Yes, .5alpha requires a stable build on Windows, Mac, and Linux platforms

EBrown

16:19

My Alexa is free to me.

"Alexa, what's going on?" "Here's your morning briefing: ..."

Mast

The Source ain't free though.

Dan Pantry

@Hosch250 We already talk to Duga. She just never replies. :(

EBrown

Doesn't need to be.

Mast

@EBrown So, Alexa tells you what you're forgetting to get in the supermarket?

EBrown

@Mast No, she just plays NPR and BBC news for a bit.

Hosch250

16:20

@Mast Cortana does.

syb0rg

@EBrown Oh, radio... good integration idea

Hosch250

Cortana will even tell you when you get to the supermarket, in case you haven't noticed yet :P

EBrown

Alexa also reminds me to get groceries sometimes.

Sometimes she forgets.

But that's not her fault.

That's on me.

"Alexa, play monopoly with me."

Hosch250

@EBrown Error 1: You can only play one monopoly game at a time.

We are already playing monopoly with you.

EBrown

"Hey Cortana, who's your favourite batman?" "I don't think I can choose."

syb0rg

16:24

@EBrown Damn that's a pricey cylinder: amazon.com/Amazon-Echo-Bluetooth-Speaker-with-WiFi-Alexa/dp/…

EBrown

@syb0rg Yeah but it does stuff.

Cool stuff.

You can do home-automation with it and such.

Hosch250

I don't care for home automation. I like getting up and walking around.

N3buchadnezzar

@Hosch250 It can brew coffee, or chase the annoying whippersnappers of your lawn.

Dan Pantry

@N3buchadnezzar whippersnapper is all one word

;-)

Hosch250

I don't drink coffee (not on principle, we just don't buy it).

As for the whippersnappers, I don't mind them.

I have 8 other people in the house to chase them for me, anyway.

Mast

16:28

@Hosch250 I have it disabled on my phone. Perhaps I should try.

N3buchadnezzar

Why do you have so many servants?

Dan Pantry

@N3buchadnezzar /r/nocontext

Hosch250

My phone was designed for WP 8/8.1. It doesn't handle 10 well at all..

EBrown

My Lumia 950 does W10 just fine. :P

Hosch250

@N3buchadnezzar If you can call siblings/parents servants...

@EBrown Try a 520.

EBrown

16:30

@Hosch250 Eww no.

Hosch250

It did handle 8/8.1 nice. I probably should roll back, but I like the new Office apps.

Learning languages is hard. Harder than learning programming languages.

IMO.

Hosch250

16:38

Agreed.

syb0rg

Programming languages have lots in common though: instructions to accomplish a task (with things such as loops, conditionals, etc.)

Normal spoken languages are MUCH more dynamic

Also, programming languages have strict rules associated with them, spoken languages don't

Hence the reason it's so hard for a computer to process natural language
