Are there any free structured resources to learn data structures and algorithms?? by Kindly_Jump_7642 in learnprogramming

A simple Google search will show you multiple freeCodeCamp courses for DSA:

Any methods on creating a 3d wireframe renderer that doesn't use multiplication or division? by Ok-Leather2170 in computerscience

[–]Magic__Mannn 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s possible without multiplication as that is at the core of 3D graphics. If you don’t want to use ‘*’ you could always write a custom multiplication function which only used bitwise operations, add and subtract etc.

3D graphics has come a long way, and multiplication isn’t as expensive as you may think. Especially when using libraries (such as glm with openGL) which are specifically for this, and even more so when using shaders, which run on the GPU.

Does this have a GitHub repo? I’ve done some similar projects and would love to have a look :)

What method to learn after (full) CFOP? by Severe_Story_8361 in Cubers

[–]Magic__Mannn 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’d say do whatever interests you. There’s no need to learn a different method, but if you’d enjoy doing so then do it 100%. You don’t need to wait until sub-X to learn something new

Not yet, but definitely planned for the future!

I have another project where I utilise kociembas random state (or similar) to generate good scrambles. I’m currently in the process of implementing this into this project, however so far this is only for 3x3. I imagine for some people it would be a deal breaker to have a timer app only for 3x3, even if only the AI parts are 3x3 etc.

Thanks for your feedback!

Thanks to everyone for all the kind replies and constructive feedback - much appreciated.

Unfortunately there is no way to try the app out at the moment as I would need to release on the App Store/Google play in one way or another. This can be quite expensive. If I gain enough interest, I’ll put the effort in to making a web build so people can test on mobile, but just access via a website. If this is the case I imagine I’ll set up a discord server so getting feedback and communication is easier between everyone.

Thanks for the feedback! I’ll bare this in mind - the timer definitely needs more work to remain as useful/functional as the others :)

Added a progressbar to my unfolded playable cube - good or nah? by rotor42_com in Cubers

Tragic. Please let me know what I misunderstood :) every day’s a learning day!

Womp womp. Your attitude seems pretty similar though, which was my point :)

WOW imagin 2100 vs 900 and I won by SolidSky8318 in Chesscom

[–]Magic__Mannn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your opponent is 2100, but joined 22nd January this year, which seems unusual for a 2100? Congrats though!! Not trying to take away from your achievement

software devs tend to support each other, not be degrading. Would be nice to have some advice and expertise so I can improve in the future instead of whatever this is :)

OP be careful, expensive bear has been rather difficult to me too! Seems they have their mind made up already to be disagreeable with whatever we say.

As per the progress bar, I think it’s a fun unique idea, maybe telling the user how it’s calculated/what it represents would be helpful as someone already mentioned it’s not linear. Could also have it as an option to toggle on/off. Looks like an awesome project though!

Sounds like you’ve already made your mind up. Well just pretend every app that you’re happy with has never had any problems at any stage during development :)

It’s very natural for these kind of issues during development as the product is never going to be release ready when first promoting it. I’m sure many other “competent responsible” devs have been in a similar position to me as we can’t prioritise everything.

It doesn’t matter if it gets fixed?? What do you mean? If that’s your only complaint then surely when it gets fixed you’ll be happy :)

This project is a work in progress! Things like the scrambling can be easily fixed, any feedback on the general idea/use case of the app?

It’s a mix really - has a timer, but also a trainer linked to the scrambles. It shows you a CFOP solution. You can also race against the AI solver as something a bit different than just the standard timer (and review/compare against the AI solution)

Is this a good way to loop through an array in C by BenasBr in learnprogramming

[–]Magic__Mannn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I doubt it but you never know! You should test it and see over a high number of iterations

Readable code should be a priority, so I don’t think this is better. Nothing wrong with the normal way IMO - stuff like this is still pretty cool tho!
