a++ means 'increment a and return the value that it was before' b = a++ is equal to b = a; a+=1; ++a just increments a.

[Darwin226]

Sorry guys, that's not what I've asked.

[Jawalt]

[QUOTE=Darwin226;29023475]If I for example did
a=5
it would store 5 somewhere in the memory and make "a" reference it.
Then if I set "b" to reference the same 5 and did a++, should it increment "b" too, or should it store 6 in memory, make "a" reference that 6 and leave "b" as it is?[/QUOTE]In a lot of languages I believe numbers are immutable, interpreted ones I mean. Which means b would still reference 5 and a a new 6.

[QUOTE=Darwin226;29024133]Sorry guys, that's not what I've asked.[/QUOTE]

The answer is: it depends.

Most languages(that I know of) handle primitive datatypes like ints and shit like so

a= 5

b= a

a++

which leaves b equaling 5 and a equaling 6.

However, when you are dealing with "objects", there are different implementations, should you copy the object and make a new memory location, or just have both variables reference the same thing?

Then there's of course pointers and shit which specifically reference a single memory location etc.

I'm sure you know all this. Just do what you think works best for your language.

Ugh, 1 thing I hate about Mono is it does not support obfuscated assemblies at all. Which doesn't make sense because they are valid. Any obfuscation at all makes Mono flip its shit and break. I mean hell all I have it obfuscating is type names and mono still crashes :\.

Anyways got my client/server code working. Surprisingly no unexpected errors either.

I think incrementation shouldn't be defined with addition. 1 is such an arbitrary number to increment by, especially when there can be other numbers between 0 and 1 (as is the case with real numbers). Why not allow defining incrementation for other enumerables, such as days? You can get the next day when you know that the current day is Monday. But you can't add together Monday and Sunday.

I'm not obsessed with Haskell, I'm not even the one with the Haskell lambda as my avatar

though I admit that my views about incrementation are affected by Haskell's succ and pred

I stole Knighty's title grabbin' idea.

The bot now checks every word in a message, and if it's first seven characters are "http://", it retrieves the title (or puts in that placeholder title if needed), runs it through ln-s.net if the URL is longer than...I believe it's 40 characters...and sends that message to the channel. Planned features include YouTube support.

Yay, got my GUI working. And by working I mean that the GUI is now the only thing working.

I don't know, then it just would be a bunch of checkboxes with text on the front.

There's actually a lot of bots support title grabbing. My idea was just the youtube data scraping :P I figure it would also be useful for other websites too (maybe linking to a wikipedia page gives a short description, I dunno).

I'm not sure about this. I can see exactly what you mean, but Winamp looks pretty damn awesome when it fills my second screen; it'd look extremely ugly with the Windows theme imo. I guess it depends on the application.

I don't know. I think I may have done something wrong since, while cells die and whatnot, the entire thing continues to live. It fills the screen (not literally fills) and never dies out.

Okay, I'll answer it correctly then:

[QUOTE=Darwin226;29023641]I guess my question is:
Is a++ EXACTLY the same as a = a + 1?
And for that matter, is a+=1 the same thing too?[/QUOTE]

No and no.

I modified Conway's game of life to have two "factions", red and blue.

I added a single rule:
-If three pixels of the opposite color surround a pixel, that pixel dies.

It just doesn't produce patterns like that. Big, full patterns explode and die out. There's something wrong with your rules.

None the less, it makes interesting patterns.
