Q: Here is my beta Deck of Cards written in c++11. Are there any improvements that could be made?

Off_grid_coderI created a deck of cards that I used in a BlackJack game. I stripped out my black jack logic and left just the Deck, card and minimum dealer. The deck class is there, because I want to create additional decks such as pinnacle or skip-bo. I that about using an Enum class for card objects or a swi...

This is probably a better question for codereview.stackexchange.com. My opinion is that the advice you're trying to follow is misguided, or at least not useful for all programming paradigms. For strict OO programming, removing parameters is important; for strict functional programming, there's no way to do anything without parameters. You should use as many parameters as are necessary to do what you need to, and no more than that. — Green Cloak Guy 1 min ago

Q: How can I reduce the number of parameters in this function?

Matt BellI've been reading Clean Code by Robert C. Martin (Uncle Bob) which states that functions should have as few parameters as possible. Ideally zero. The book suggests that three or more parameters is too many for a function. I am now trying to implement this practice into my own code and I'm trying ...

Q: A Bspline module for AMO. Plus: what about lambdas in modern fortran?

Luca ArgentiHere is a (reduced version of) a module for Bsplines, which I have used multiple times for my work on atomic and molecular physics. I wrote it more than a decade ago, with the occasional tweak, and I think it would benefit from a review. It is a bit long, but it is quite useful: it can compute ar...

Q: Implementation of xavier initialisation correct?

No, I do actually want to throw away my work and create brand new commits. (Not keep my work and commit bits of it.) They might include things done differently from the final commit, taking a different path to get there - e.g. to help tell a clean "story" to a code reviewer. Since reset moves the branch pointer I can't see how reset-mixed achieves this? Maybe steps would help. — Luke Usherwood 7 secs ago

@AkshaySehgal As a regular there, I can tell you from experience that it simply doesn't work well on the site unless it's an exemplary written question.

Please do not suggest Code Review as an alternative site if it's a bad move. — Mast 1 min ago

I do understand it's subjective, but being in the field for about 9 years now. I can tell you that reviewing the learning capability of a model is a MAJOR aspect of the Code reviews that I have done over the years and is a standard industry practice.

any possibilities that the MySQL UPDATE the table with wrong data...only if you give it the wrong data. You need to do some serious testing and code reviewing. If what you're saying is genuinely not the result of a human problem (which is still quite likely) then you have a very fundamental and serious bug, if the code is capable of recording the wrong user as having added a record (especially as it seems to be doing so inconsistently, from what you say). I'd still say though that there's just as good a chance, if not more chance, that this is actually human error or human malice.... — ADyson 1 min ago

Hey, given the recent @Duga @Lurch thing should we have a sort of agreed upon bot (software) infrastructure. I'm thinking of writing a simple CR bot, and I don't want to make it a PITA for anyone else to set-up, if a problem arises and I'm MIA. I'm quite a noob in IaC, containers and VMs, so my concern may be misplaced. I'm thinking it's probably better to ask now, when I have nothing setup, then later. @Edward @Mast
 
@Peilonrayz Sounds interesting. What function do you have in mind for your bot?
 
@Edward At first something simple like tagging Python questions correctly codereview.stackexchange.com/questions/tagged/…
 
@Edward Shredding is indeed complete. You might have ignored the previous questions on the unit testing. The unit tests exercise all of the functions in the code under test including static functions, so the original code is included by the unit test. Each unit test is intended to be either a stand alone project or provide code to the overall unit test.
Altering the directory structure is not something I want to do.
 
@pacmaninbw Fair enough. I just forked the project and started to poke around.
If I do a pull request, are there any features/changes that would be particularly welcome, or would you rather just work on it yourself?
Sometimes that's my preference, so no offense would be taken either way.
 
Be my guest..
 
7:45 PM
Nice job on the documentation, BTW! It's infrequent that one sees projects at this stage of development that actually have any docs at all.

@Edward Do I need to add you to any access lists?
 
@pacmaninbw No, I was thinking I would just create a branch with a change and submit a pull request via github.
It automatically shows up on your end and you can either accept, reject or ignore. :)
 
That works
@Edward I've created a new branch called Before_Build_Code_Review, any changes to merge should be against that branch.
 
OK, good to know.
Hmm. The only branches I see are Before_First_Code_Review and Before_Parser_Unit_Test_Review.

7:57 PM
Do you see master also?
 
Yes, that too.
Those are the three visible here.
 
Hmm. Are you looking at it in a browser or in github desktop?
 
Command-line git
git branch -a
 
I'm having that problem as well. I created the branch using the web site interface.
 
Peculiar. I see it when I use the browser on your project, but not in the forked project.
Maybe because it's identical with the existing master? I don't know. I don't use the web gui much.
 
8:11 PM
It's no longer identical to the existing master. Refresh the shell you're in and do the git branch -a command again.
I added the code review question to the master.
Really wanted to add it to the branch but that failed for some reason.
 
Ah, just did git pull upstream and got 'em all.
 
Okay.
 
8:29 PM
CMake and shell don't seem to draw a lot of attention.
 
They tend to be hard to review
 
Lovely.
 
Partly it's relatively new, and partly because non-trivial questions tend to be long.
 
Yes, non-trivial questions do tend to be long. I unfortunately only ask non-trivial questions.
:)
 
I'm sure you've noticed that newbie questions tend to be much easier to review.
Non-trivial questions make me think.
And thinking is hard. :)
 
8:36 PM
LOL.
 
It's why I avoid it wherever possible.
 
Rolling on the floor.
 
Say, what have you got in mind for the editor portion of your VM?
Curses?
QT?
Web?
 
Possibly QT or Curses, I was originally thinking line editor in terminal.
Perhaps integrate vim.
It really only needs to be a simple text editor.
 
I am working on a project which runs via plain text scripts. I'm looking into what would be required to use a web front-end for it.
I really don't want to write an editor for it.

@Edward I did web development for 4 years while trying to start my own business. If I never see another line of jQuery or JavaScript it will be too soon.
