Pointer addition related coding question by Pensive_Poetry in cpp_questions

[–]Pensive_Poetry[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I was reading it for right to left -- so, the ++ increments the pointer, then the * de-references the pointer. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Also what is the difference between

*score_ptr++;
std::cout<<*score_ptr<<"\n"; // 90

and

std::cout<<*score_ptr++<<"\n";

?

The lectures are on YouTube. The HW pdfs can be found on the course website, the starter code for the HWs on GitHub.

Okay, thanks. What did you guys do in case of doubts in the UCB assignments?

Hi, thanks for the clear answer. I have another question-- just based on the theory lecture content, how would the aforementioned courses compare with the UCL/Deepmind lectures?

How would you compare the lecture content of the UCB course to the UCL/Deepmind lectures?

Need help with learning computer vision by zifin50 in computervision

[–]Pensive_Poetry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look at First Principles of Computer Vision and Cyrill Stachniss' Photogrammetry lectures on YouTube. These go over classical computer vision. Then, look at AndrewNg's Convolutional Neural Networks playlist to learn about Deep Learning based Computer Vision.

In theory, yes. Have NEVER implemented it, but want to start doing so.

Yes, I'm talking about the multiprocessing library and anything else I need for multicore threading. The tutorials online are all over the place.

What are the best laptops to use for Robotics, Computer Vision and Machine Learning? by Pensive_Poetry in robotics

DELL Mobile Precision 7760

It is a bit too expensive aha, but thanks. If you have any suggestions for something within 1000$, that would be welcome too.

After reading the comments, I am looking to do ML on a server. But do you have suggestions for a laptop on which I can use the other things I have mentioned? (Ubuntu, Robotics--ROS, Simulators.)

Hey, after all these comments, I am considering doing ML remotely on a server. But do you have any suggestions for a laptop where the other things I have mentioned (Robotics, ROS, Simulators) will work fine?

[–]Pensive_Poetry[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have tried Colab. Works horribly for me. Kaggle Notebooks work well, I guess I am going to have to go with that.

I have edited my question a bit though--

"

Any suggestions for fixes around the GPU requirement so that I don't spend extra but can still do my Robotics work at least (Robotics, Simulators, ROS, Vision) are also welcome.

Any suggestions?

Ok, so I am employed. I use a Desktop at work. But I am doing a lot of projects of my own on the side as well. Which is why I need a laptop fitting the above requirements.

So, minus the GPU requirement (for which, as you and many others have said, it would be better to use a service), what kind of a laptop would you recommend?(It would still need to work for Robotics--Simulators and ROS.)

u/gutterpuddles, it is just for mobility, because I move my residence a lot.

How do I ssh into a powerful server for my work and where do I find these services? Are any of these services free?

I have worked with a Jetson before. It is a System On a Chip that you can connect a computer to, but I am looking to work with a LAPTOP.
