It's our functional programming & data structures class. I know nothing about OCaml, but I know it's the class that makes a bunch of people drop the major

is your class offered within the context of a science degree, or an engineering degree

Gogey posted:

The only difference between our Arts CS Degree and Eng. CS is the core. Eng has to take multivariable and physics (+ some intro engineering/stats stuff), Arts has those as whatever credits. So the B.A. CS students take that class too.


It gets dropped because it's known to be one of the hardest classes in the major (along with the Operating Systems practicum), not because "a bloo bloo language."

Anyway, the K&R C textbook is amazing. Any others like this (preferably php because its the best (better than lua))?

school of arts & sciences gives out bachelors of arts (they give out both for CS at brown too)

I remember our take home final in that class was to solve 50 problems in scheme, ml and prolog. That poo poo loving owned.

I got a C# question. If I'm doing a Composite Pattern using interfaces, is there a fast way to implement an interface with a masterclass and then automatically delegate the behavior to a component?

Here's an example, I'd really like to not have to write out how BaseballPlayer does the SwingBat, CallShot, and RunToBase methods, and just have all that responsibility offloaded to BatBehavior.

code:

    interface IBattingBehavior
    {
        void SwingBat();
        void CallShot();
        void RunToBase(int baseNumber);
    }

    class BaseballPlayer : IBattingBehavior
    {
        IBattingBehavior BatBehavior;

        public void SwingBat() { BatBehavior.SwingBat();}
        public void CallShot() { BatBehavior.CallShot();}
        public void RunToBase(int baseNumber) { BatBehavior.RunToBase(baseNumber);}
    }

Jesus loving christ that's not hard to do at all. You don't keep some table of requests and ask which request the parse is for, this poo poo is called closures.


Yeah and you pay the cost for context switching and overhead of threads or processes, which is why people still do event-based code to this day.


Why would your writes block to be sane? Get better at writing. Learn 2 code.


More like

code:

a -> p -> d -> reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeead -> reeeeeeeeeeeeeead more -> wriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiite -> push.
a -> p -> d -> reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeead -> reeeeeeeeeeeeeead more ->                            wriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiite -> push.

Note that the single-threaded event-based version looks like this:

code:

a -> p -> d -> reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeead -> reeeeeeeeeeeeeead more -> wriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiite -> push.
                a -> p -> d -> reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeead -> reeeeeeeeeeeeeead more ->             wriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiite -> push.

Put event loops on multiple threads, problem solved.


What are you talking about? In all event-based code the reads are going to happen in parallel. You don't schedule a read and then block anybody else from reading while you do your thing. Non-blocking IO is the thing one does with async code, LOL if you're using callbacks with blocking I/O.


Because that's how Javascript loving works. That's how it works in the browser, that's what Javascript engines support. Have you tried to take javascript engines and run more than one inside a process? Have you tried making them run on top of green threads? Guess what: the fancypants C++ programmers didn't make them compatible with all such notions.


Blah blah blah Ryan Dahl is an idiot. We know that. We don't need you to be an idiot too.
