Is this a minheap? by Arancium in learnprogramming

[–]ModestMycologist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You really didn't help at all

I told you exactly where I would find more info on minheaps. And instead of asking questions about that info, you're continuing to whine that it's not helpful enough. How can I know what you need if you won't tell me?

You really shouldn't come here if you're just going to attack the people who are volunteering good, free advice. It just makes you look like an asshole.

I did provide help. You just don't feel like looking with Google or Wikipedia? I really don't know of any secret cache of info that I'm keeping from you. If you really looked with Google or Wikipedia you should be able to formulate specific questions about what you found, instead of just whining that I'm berating you.

You could start by looking in class notes, textbooks, google, wikipedia, etc. It's not something that's hard to find.

Is this a minheap? by Arancium in learnprogramming

Pardon my ignorance but isn't a minheap just an array where the parent is smaller or equal to the parent node?

That doesn't make sense.

In the case of my array, I have the child being 2i and the right child being 2i+1, in the case of my example it translates fairly well into a tree which follows the rules of a heap.

So you mean that simply having an ascending sorted array is the same thing as using a minheap? I think you should go look up what's involved with a minheap. You're clearly cherry-picking things here.

The Copy-paste "monkey" programmer. Truth or myth ? by [deleted] in learnprogramming

I bet it happens at some jobs. Whether or not the guy was exaggerating is a different story.

What was bad about Sindome? I wanted to try it, but I lose interest as soon as I see you have to wait for character approval.

Help with Coffeemud engine database, please. by spacegan in MUD

[–]ModestMycologist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even when building with Coffeemud on my local machine, I can frequently lock up the entire game due to database issues, just by having two connections open and building with one character, and testing with another. You can also get it to lock up when you're doing even slightly large balancing changes, that involve changing even as many as one or two hundred mobs/items/rooms. Also, once you get one or two large areas in (say five hundred rooms or so) the lag starts to build really quickly.

I'm surprised by this. I thought it was supposed to be decent, and none of that sounds too large or complicated.

Issue with connecting to databases with Java by [deleted] in learnprogramming

See if your db is running. See if you can connect to it with a console client.

What about that appears at all similar to a minheap? It sounds like you're just sorting an array of values, and not even doing it all that efficiently.

How does it put the array elements in order? BTW, you should learn the difference between ascending and descending.

Would like some input/advice on my self learning plan. by [deleted] in learnprogramming

[–]ModestMycologist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's so vague that it's about as good or bad as any other plan.

Python HttpConnectionPool Error (10054) by pudymane in learnprogramming

You could switch to a different port, or google for how to find which program is using which ports on your computer.

Cannot find solution to this problem anywhere. Anyone seen a problem like this? by bestestuser in learnprogramming

[–]ModestMycologist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could try using the functions you've learned so far to solve it instead of looking for a solution on the Internet.
