to import a single function from another script, simply put "from <script> import <function>". You can set vars and consts in another script. Example: [CODE="Python"]#example.py a = 10 b = 20 def function( n ): n + 20 return n #script.py import example example.a = 14 example.function(6) [/CODE]

Here in the Netherlands the weather's quite pleasant today, altough the Royal Dutch Meteology Institute predicted a thunderstorm tonight...

Have you tried Qt by Nokia? I'm a unsure whether it will be supported on Windows Phone 7 and Android at all, but it is 'the' open source alternative to DotNET they say. Maemo and newer high end Symbians were written using it if i'm not mistaken, and with the …

To me, C++ is not dying, at least not for as long as I live. I have to admit, I have to use other (high-level) languages in order to fit in at work. Satisfaction is way higher when I finish up projects in C++, though. I see C++ as my …

There's been a true fight going on between Apple and Samsung in the Hague court in the Netherlands, for any of you fellow Dutch speaking techies: [url]http://www.nu.nl/gadgets/2587590/apple-en-samsung-botsen-hard-in-haagse-rechtbank.html[/url] Basically this news story reveals how childish Apple is, even in the Netherlands, which isn't exactly between the US and Korea without a …

Programming had me enjoy my free time more.

I'd go crazy and run into the wild, to enjoy mother earth in all her naturality of the last days. I'd avoid contact with other humans anyway.

Just want to say that I was baffled when I read this forum member, who ranked WAY up in little half a year, is (only) 14 years old, whilst providing [U]true[/U] support in the networking section of this forum. Cheers to you, friend. You've accomplished something I wouldn't even think …

I was there once, there were a few mods but nobody actually answered.

you write /dev/null instead of 'toilet'.

You people should've seen the trial we had here (the Netherlands) yesterday, it almost looked like two kids fighting over eachother's treehouse ideas. It was pathetic, although Samsung seemed to be in control a little more than Apple.

R.I.P. and welcome to 27 club. Tell Kurt I said hi. Lovely voice, awful face. R.I.P.

[QUOTE]Be curious, and take it one step at a time (i.e. don't start by digging into Boost.Proto or some other crazy complicated library like that, start by looking at libraries that are small and simple enough that you could possibly be able to do it yourself, if you wanted to).[/QUOTE] …

Also known as "Snitching" applications, that simply log and report the whereabouts of an object (like smartphones, laptops, tablets, etc.).

You can ram a Lenovo (At least a thinkpad) into a concrete wall with 35mph and it still works, running it's own crash tests.

instead of calling open directly, assign it's result to a value like [CODE=C++] int a; a = fopen(filename.wav) //etc [/CODE] [B]EDIT: [/B]In your case, just check [CODE=C++]int fd[/CODE]'s value.

In the Netherlands, your choice says a little more about you than just financial things. When people find out you got a new phone you almost immediately get placed in a group. Running around with an iPhone, and you're doomed to be called a hipster (and they're right, everyone i …

I use Windows on a repetitive daily basis. If your gear can't handle it that sucks. Write your own lightweight OS in Assembly or C :)

I use Eclipse for almost all development i do, i admit it's quite resource hungry but really expandable in quite a few ways. A fun example is that i wrote a (really simple) SDL game engine in CDT and i made a plugin for eclipse which became the game editor. …

I was 8 years old when i dipped my toes into programming with LOGO, I am 20 years old now writing hardcore ARM C and assembly code ^^

Format the disk, the easy way is to overwrite all of the data with other data (just takes a long time), but if you have some coding skills just write some software that creates a file and bloats it with zeroes (NULLs). other than that, you can just copy some …

I see you have basic knowledge of the language so i won't explain on how to implement, but take a look at this [url]http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/xfta99yt(v=VS.90).aspx[/url]

Thank YOU! I was looking for this for a long time, does it do tag editing too?

It might come with GCC, who knows. Otherwise install it yourself.

It's hard to be afraid of something that is inevitable.

Hello, I'm working on a hardware project based on the RabbitSys chips, which are ideal for web based hardware development. My task now is to divide a table up in pages and i'm able to set a variable from a webpage like "CurrentPage=1" and calculate my way around. the ZHTML …

If you're familiar with service programmig you could just create your own registration service, where license codes are connected (encrypted with?) the host's MAC adress for example. It's how i do it in my C++ projects.

Try DarkBasic or the DarkGDK at [URL="http://www.thegamecreators.com"]The Game Creators[/URL]. It's how i started out on game development =)

Technically you can, if you had the datasheets and instruction sets of all the hardware you were working with. I think there's a unified instruction set which is used by libraries as OpenGL and such. To be honest, I don't know for sure because all assembly I did was on …

Having someone do your homework is not the way to go, you won't learn anything (unless you're majoring business and economics of course). If you're really keen on having this done by the end of this semester you'd better dive into books/tutorials and make it work. To really answer your …

I personally believe 'friends' shouldn't call eachother 'customers'. Even when they are.

Why not 'just check' for key presses, if there's none just update the ball and not the pads. add a delay at the end of every loop to ensure your program won't run way too fast ;) the loop's like this: do check for keypresses if true update pads update …

Hi there, In a form i have a datagrid with two columns. The columns are about 40 pixels wide and i can't find a way to have them larger when the program loads. Does anyone know a way to do this? Greets, K

[QUOTE=8mir;1463719]If you do not know the image size[/QUOTE] This almost never occurs. File sizes are one of the first data that is transmitted.

The first image you've submitted is not from Windows 7, it's Windows XP. It's not possible to apply Windows 7's Aero theme to applications running on XP. Try to run your application on a Windows 7 machine and make sure any skinning options are disabled.

It might be one of the components you haven't replaced yet. my technique is to start the machine without one of the components, one by one. If booting persists to fail it might be the PSU or CPU. Good luck.

There's a way of implementing QtLib into Visual Studio too. Refer to [URL="http://qt.nokia.com/downloads/visual-studio-add-in"]the Nokia Qt Visual Studio Add-In page[/URL] for more. Qt could be called the "open source alternative" to .NET.

How do your parents turn off the internet? Do they unplug the main phone line? if so you're stuck to Windows Solitaire, buddy. You might as well get a cellular data plan and a dongle to bypass your parents' tyrannism.

Well the Best Laptop on the market, replying to your thread's title, would be the Lenovo w710ds (look it up, it's quite overkill). Although i don't think your sister'd be satisfied with an extra screen and a built in drawingtablet, a module that corrects screen color according to environmental light, …

Have you tried updating the BIOS firmware? If the problem persists after doing so you might as well contact Dell about this because it's not a common problem.

In the name of Computer Science, i do like to see MS and *n*x to be buddies. In fact, i think ALE's (Arrogant Linux Elitists) should cut the crap and make Windows more and more compatible with it, and for Microsoft vice versa (Which they're already doing). Microsoft means proven …

Hi, could you extend your question a little further, eg by telling us what library you use for drawing the circle, if any? What namespace is it in? what header file did you include for it? How are you supposed to draw a circle to a console output? Yes, so …

instead of saving all the pixels separately, you could instead save less arrays containing four coordinates in which between are only the same color, or as i like to call it "same-pixel-quadrants". so if you have a piece of image that's only black containing 40.000 pixels, make much less squares …
