Re: Vector Rotation

Yep, you got a problem, homie.

After you calculate the x component of the vector, you have modified it before using it to calculate the y component of the vector.

Use a temporary vector, and assign it to your original vector after the calculation is done.

Re: Windows.h

First of all, you need to understand the concept of a header file. A header file doesn't "do" shit. 99% of the time, with the sole exceptions being inlining and macros, a header file doesn't even contain any executable code. All it contains are the definitions of data structures and the d...

Re: Windows.h

Jeeeeeeeeesus. Let's get started, sunshine. Is there some globally defined name in the process space of all programs running on my machine from which my programs use to access hardware/OS functions that #includes like windows.h latch onto, or is it that somewhere in the code of #includes like window...

Re: Great Article on Stack vs. Heap in the CLR

I think the heap vs stack portion of this article is a huge "no shit" for a developer of a natively compiled language... For a very strict definition of "developer", sure. But there are a lot of people calling themselves developers these days who couldn't even describe a stack d...

Re: Great Article on Stack vs. Heap in the CLR

I think the heap vs stack portion of this article is a huge "no shit" for a developer of a natively compiled language... Whether you're using a garbage collector or not, heap management and fragmentation still exists (only you have to care about it even more), and the stack operates in exa...

Re: Falco's worst nightmare realized

And trust me, the JIT managed C/++ equivalents for .NET and JAVA bytecode are extremely bastardized, obviously. You can't produce safe code with either language.

Re: Python as a game scripting language

You stand to gain nothing by extending a scripting language with another scripting language. You do however stand to lose performance, time, and increase your executable size greatly... The entire point of using an embedded scripting language is the ease of development and not having to recompile co...

Re: Programming Trivia Questions [HELP ME OUT!]

I had a boss at work who was notorious for destroying poor coop students who were interviewing at my job. My all-time favorite interview question to ask the CS kiddies is probably this: "What is the difference between run-time and compile-time polymorphism and give examples of both." So to...
