I've officially created an account, linked to facebook, and will not actively use the tinychat dev channel anytime I'm devving from my macbook:

http://tinychat.com/longdevnights

password: 3gaymen

Feel free to join anytime. Most the time you'll be staring at the side of my face as I edit code. However, you may run into times when we've got Falco, Dual Threat, and other fellas around!

And yeah, def. inspired by the other "Dev-A-Thon" topic. Keep up the hard work folk!

In the future, I really will frequent this chat, and keep it troll free.

Dev, or GTFO.

hahah yeah, it's quite simple actually:

Code: Select all

std::string ToEnglish(std::string tinktalk)
{
	std::string ret = "";

	for(unsigned i = 0; i < tinktalk.size(); i++)
	{
		int dec = (int)tinktalk[i];
		dec *= 2;
		ret += (char)dec;
	}

	return ret;
}

std::string ToEnglish2(std::string tinktalk)
{
	return "I'm an idiot";
}

int main(int argc, char *arcv[])
{
	std::cout<<ToEnglish("Hot_Sauce_breh")<<"\n";
	//Didn't turn out right?

	std::cout<<ToEnglish2("Hot_Sauce_breh");
	//there we go
}
Some times the conversion from tinkspeak to English can't be fully done. Sometimes you can get weird characters. Luckly there's a back door method. Since tink speak repeats English phrases almost 90% of the time, and it's been scientifically proven, that the phrase is "I'm an idiot", if you get jumbled words with ToEnglish(), you can use ToEnglish2() for accurate results.

I think you should send that converter to Google so other people can translate from TinkTalk to English XD
