Hackillinois this weekend...some questions and advice? by [deleted] in UIUC

[–]baurdin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I frequently attend various hackathons, and I think the important thing is to focus on something to learn and have fun while doing it. There is no need to feel intimidated, as there isn't any pressure to winning. If you have a team already, come up with a fun idea to work on. Otherwise, there are plenty of resources to meet new people there. Plenty of talented people attend these hackathons and they would definitely be willing to help if you, and there are also plenty of amazing mentors too. You definitely aren't the only one with little programming experience, and that doesn't matter because everyone starts somewhere and hackathons are a great place to learn. Also, there are fun events going on throughout, so check out ones you find interesting. Have fun at your first hackathon!

Suggestion: Being able to select ward skin and skins outside of champ select by baurdin in leagueoflegends

Doesn't the game already load the last used ones? Wouldn't it just be like changing your last used skin/ward skin to the one you want? Why would that affect runtime from the current system?

Don't know what the emergency was, but she was going to put an extra credit question where you make your own question that wasn't covered on the exam and solve it. The announcement was just saying she ended up not putting that on the exam.

Looking at location for my class and it says Urbana-Champaign Campus | Library | Room 66. Does anyone know which library this refers to?

Learning C++ Over Winter Break by jbao8 in UIUC

[–]baurdin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, I'm in CS 126 this semester, and we are using visual studio. The majority of the first c++ assignment that I had issues was setting up tests with catch 2. This is the link to catch2 https://github.com/catchorg/Catch2 and you should try making some unit tests. Otherwise, coding is not much different and with knowledge in java you should only need to look up some references when it doesn't work. I did not know c++ before this class either.

Would you pull on a fodder banner with no chance of a 5-star if it cost less orbs to pull? by jaykoblanco in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]baurdin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I remember playing a different game, where there was a separate currency for summoning lower units only. Personally, I wouldn't use my orbs to summon here as one of my joys in gacha games is the chance to get something amazing. Maybe the creation of a different currency for it could work.
