1) Get yourself a couple of books on OOAD
2) Get yourself a couple of books on structural programming
3) Get yourself a couple of books on patterns, regex
4) Read

Finally, practice, practice , practice..... NullPointerException is your friend...

help i need the answer to this question for tomorrow

difference between an algorithm and a programming language

please help

hexXie · Post by **hexXie** » 08 Feb 2005, 19:56

An algorithm is the simplified version or 'summary' using simple symbols to project or give a basic outline of a program/idea,

whereas a programming language consists of a series of symbols/statements used in a specific manner to be formed into a source program to be utilised for the generation of a desired output.

Hope it helps(just a basic summary!)

Essentially scope....

An algorithm is a very specific piece of code that provides extremely restricted functionality, eg... it would typically provide very simple output in a sort function.... (greater than/less than comparison).

A programming language is the medium used to code the algorithm. It provides a structured syntax which is readable to a programmer. The structure of the language and its syntax permits the programmer to produce , shall we say, a verbose program, which the compiler is capable of interprating and rendering back into machine code, (binary executable), which is not readable....

wats up peps...

i'm a newbie in programming but i was just curious, how do u get your program 2 auto detect the systems resolution nd adjust itself? i have a problem wif that cause my program is compiled on my resolution (1024x768) nd i want the program on 800x600 but its 2 big!!

pls help...

Uranium · Post by **Uranium** » 08 Apr 2005, 17:35

What language? It doesn't depend on your resolution when you compiled it, but on the size you told it when you created the window. Or you could just tell it to maximise it.

Which University are you at?, I am at UNISA also studying BSc Computer Science - Software Engineering. I have level 1 experience in C++ and Delphi. If you need help please be a bit more specific of the language you are programming in and the problem you are having, and maybe myself or someone else will help you.

draggon · Post by **draggon** » 11 Apr 2005, 10:16

@ eraser --- does'nt it have to do with form size property. (I am not at my Delphi computer right now. Will check-up)

syntheticdarkness · Post by **syntheticdarkness** » 15 May 2005, 16:27

I need help with delphi.

The if then else statement need help fast.
this is how it is so far how do i get it right.
also needed the {{{{{procedure TForm1.bmpOKClick(Sender: TObject);}}}}} this line without the{{{}}} is also appreciated

procedure TForm1.bmpOKClick(Sender: TObject);
begin
if sPassword = Password;
then lblResult.Caption :='Valid login';
else lblResult.Caption :='INVALID';
end;

may the force be with you

Slasher · Post by **Slasher** » 15 May 2005, 16:32

I think there shouldnt be all the

;

at the end of each...

Just make if If spassword = password
then lblResult.Caption :='Valid login'
else lblResult.Caption :='INVALID'
end;

Or at least not at the end of the first IF line...

Thats waht I remember from Turbo Pascal, cant gaurantee it will work... try it...

Good luck...

eagerBeaver · Post by **eagerBeaver** » 15 May 2005, 16:36

Yea, there should be a ";" at the end of each line except when in a loop.

DarkPond · Post by **DarkPond** » 15 May 2005, 17:26

Code: Select all

procedure TForm1.bmpOKClick(Sender: TObject);
begin
if sPassword = Password then
    lblResult.Caption :='Valid login';
else 
    lblResult.Caption :='INVALID';
end;

okay i changed it to how i lay it out. there should be no ';' at the end of your IF line. i lay it out like this and then don't have a ';' on the same line as the IF

proaTt · Post by **proaTt** » 15 May 2005, 18:20

procedure TForm1.jpgOKClick(Sender: mRt);
begin
if sPassword = Password then
lblResult.caution :='Valid login';
else
lblResult.caution :='INVALID';
end; is are end be
