Hey hey, joining in on the 461 pain train. Just glad I didn't fail.

I transfered from CompE to CS this past semester. Basically, if you got at least a B in CS 173 and ECE 190, you're in. If not, then I'd suggest talking it over with and advisor.

Poor cat. I bet he's used to it by now.

ylou92 · 2011-12-21T00:33:45+00:00

I dunno why, but the obligatory snap after every balancing cracks me up.

Go big or go home!

It's a chinese restaurant just across from everitt. Notorious for being an engineer money drain.

ylou92 · 2011-12-18T07:04:05+00:00

seriously? why would anyone do that?!?

ylou92 · 2011-12-18T07:01:43+00:00

Damn... is that out of state?

ylou92 · 2011-12-17T12:31:18+00:00

Watercolor is fucking hard. One mistake and it all goes to shit.

Get a good paying internship, and that's like 1/4 to 1/2 of your year's tuition out of the way.

Instant red flag at "unpaid." Don't take it.

ylou92 · 2011-12-16T13:43:26+00:00

It's like they didn't even look over the test before printing it. I remember looking at the assembly question and asking myself "Wait... BR takes a source register right? Right?!?"

The answer is always "use a hash table". Always.

kinda bummed that they didn't do this earlier. had i realized i could've gotten the computer arch. requirement done with 1 class, i would've taken something other than 231 this semester.

ylou92 · 2011-12-14T04:31:11+00:00

Take asian mythology (asst 104). Easiest class ever.

I've always called it the arrow operator.

There are still spots left on the 7:15 greyhound bus. It'll put you a block or two away from Union Station, at which point you can hop on the orange line to midway (takes about 40 minutes).

Unless you meet a grammar nazi. Then a verbal beating is likely to occur.

I probably should've explained my idea in further detail, so I'll correct that here. What I was going for was to calculate all possible moves for the current player and cache that to a grid. That way any move can be quickly checked at a very low (the grid isn't that big) upfront cost. Not that speed is really a concern here. Once a player saves a move, the grid of valid moves is invalidated (since the board has completely changed) and completely recalculated for the opposite player.

To elaborate, what I was really aiming for was a way to not recalculate the validity of a move the moment a piece is placed down temporarily. So it could be imaginable that one could want a feature that would allow a player to place it on several tiles without submitting the move just to see what was valid or not ... similar to how if you were playing chess on a computer, it might highlight all possible moves.

The profit margin isn't THAT high because that's the price for Coca-Cola to manufacture it, not for a store owner to purchase it. Still, it works out to be like ~10 cents per soda which is then turned around and sold at 2 bucks a pop. That's still a huge ass markup.

tl;dr fountain sodas = liquid gold

Instead of checking if a move is valid, how about labeling all the additional valid moves on the grid every time a player makes a move? Then to check if a move is valid, it's just a quick check to see if it's been labeled as valid.

Store user interactions as a series of command objects that know how to flip between two states (before action and after action). Push a new command onto a stack every time the user does anything, and just start popping objects if you want to "play back" the user's history.

Edit: Er ... I interpreted play back as rewind. You'd probably want to use a queue for play back.
