Anywho:

You could use php for that, if there is an api for either of those websites it will make your data retrieval easier, you can just use curl to request the data ([url]http://php.net/manual/en/curl.examples-basic.php[/url])

Otherwise you'll need to scrape the data from the html pages. You can probably find a library to use:

Personally I'd recommend using python and scrapy. Cause it's pretty straight forward imo.
[url]https://scrapy.org/[/url]

You'll need to store the data in some medium that is accessible for you. That could be a sql server (mysql, postgres etc), sqlite database, or a csv file.

[B]Secondly You'll need to analyze the data[/B]
This can be different on what you want to compare. If you're just looking for statistical data you can use :
R ([url]https://www.r-project.org/[/url]).
Excel is another great tool for data.

If you want to do document analysis it will be a bit more in depth. Although I'm sure there are some libraries out there to use.

Thanks for the input. I thought creating making it in PHP, because I have used this the most, but I mean, as a programmer I also want to experiment with other languages. What I am looking to do is to be able to fetch data from one used car website and compare it with results in used car website from another country. So basically I'll put in my search criteria, ala : 2004-2007 Audi A4 and it returns me the difference in those 2 websites, lowest price, highest price. Eventually I would want it to be able to show me the cars with highest price differences and even maybe e-mail or notify me when some car with high price ( user inputted value ) difference comes on sale ( or if a car with lower price than others on the local market comes on sale ).

I'm trying to blink an LED with a raspberry pi.
How do I calculate how many loops I need to delay for 1 second?

void delay(int count)
{
    volatile int i;
    for (i = 0; i < count; i++)
    {
        /* do nothing */
    }
}

[Danneh]

What language is this? Is there not a sleep command? Loops are not designed for delays

So I'm having trouble with threading in python. I think I need a lock for a function outside of a thread to access an attribute that is changed by a function that [I]is[/I] in a thread.

signal_pierre() needs to access connection which is altered by listen(), which is running in a thread to avoid blocking.

I am trying to get back into OpenGL again. I made it work the last time, but I am not sure if I have understood the "Best practices" of the VBO and VAO.

How I think it works..
The VBO: It contains the vertex data. (Eg one per unique mesh)
The VAO: It contains information of the vertex layout. Eg where to find the position, normal, UV, etc. (Eg one per shader)

But when I work with lwjgl and try to set the attributes it requires that I bind a VBO first. Does that mean that the VBO also contains the attributes and if so, then what does the VAO contain?

Or is it just a quirk of lwjgl?
If it is, should I create and bind a dummy VBO when I load my shaders and throw it away afterwards?

[tW4r]

I'm preparing for an entry test which requires Java and SQL, after looking at Java code it looks pretty much like any other OOP programming language, SQL seems pretty basic too (the basic stuff).

My question is, do any of you know very quick ways/tutorials to learn the basics of Java and SQL for an intermediate programming (JS, C#, Python, PHP)?

Sorry if wrong thread.

This is how I understand it:
A VBO specifies and holds a single buffer of data, like vertices, normals, texcoords, etc.
1 buffer [I][B]can[/B][/I] hold multiple vertex attribute pointers so you can technically format your data so that you upload all of the model's data to 1 buffer and specify how it should be read and broken down to be sent to the shaders, but you don't have to.
Instead, you can do multiple VBO's, 1 per each attribute. IIRC this is the better way of doing it.
Then, you link those to your VAO. So when you want to render, you just bind the VAO, and call draw arrays.

The way I do it is this:

glGenVertexArrays(1, &VAO_ID);
glBindVertexArray(VAO_ID);

GLuint buffers[num_of_attributes];

// First attribute, vertices. Repeat for number of attributes desired.
// variable 'N' == the attribute spot.
glEnableVertexAttribArray(N); 
glBindBuffer(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, buffers[N]); 
glBufferData(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, num_of_elements_in_array * sizeof(vec3), &vertexdata[0][0] /* pointer to first element (x of xyz) of first spot of vertex array */ , GL_STATIC_DRAW);
glVertexAttribPointer(N, 3, GL_FLOAT, GL_FALSE, 0, 0);

glBindVertexArray(0);
glDeleteBuffers(num_of_attributes, &buffers); // VBO's won't actually get deleted until the VAO gets deleted. This is just for convenience so that we don't have to type it again later.

If any of that doesn't make sense just PM me

[WTF Nuke]

Thinks of VBOs as arbitrary buffers, because that's just what they are. They just store some information. Typically though they store some information about a vertex, hence the name vertex buffer object.

Attribute pointers are a way for the graphics card to reason about your vertex information. Your attribute pointer tells it how much data to consume and how much of a step to take to find additional data, as well as some offset from the start. What this means in reality is imagine your buffer is like this:

[x][y][z][r][g][b][x][y][z][r][g][b]

That is to say that you are interleaving a coordinate and a colour. You specify to your position attribute pointer (the attribute pointer that will point to coordinates) that you want it to consume 3 blocks at a time, have an offset of 0, and jump 6 blocks to find the next position. On the other hand, you want your colour attribute pointer to have an offset of 3 (since the first 3 blocks are coordinates), consume 3 blocks at a time as well, and jump 6 blocks also.

Interleaving data is probably a better approach if your data is static (non changing) since it can fit better into cache lines.

Now we get onto VAOs or vertex array objects, which are horribly named. In reality, OpenGL is a huge state machine. A VAO is the container that holds onto some of that state. One of the things it holds onto are attribute pointers (note that it does NOT hold onto the buffer, because the attribute POINTER already knows where the buffer is when it was created, hence it points to it). VAOs are NOT one per shader, and in fact they are shader agnostic (you can use 1 VAO across 5 different shaders if you wanted to). Most people use one VAO per model, since it holds onto where your buffer data is. There are more advanced techniques that actually only use one VAO for the entire program, but the fact of the matter is you NEED to have a VAO bound before you render anything, the spec requires it.

I am trying to take an image of form and recognize all text fields on it.
I am using Java (As I am most fluent with it in terms of image manipulation and syntax in general).

I had two ways in mind:

1) Y loop and X loop in it - loop through page and scan pixel by pixel to find text fields (text fields have black border).
This worked by:

when X hits NON-WHITE pixel -> Check if Previous X was white AND next X is NON-WHITE = it means I've hit a field upper left corner.

Keep iterating X until I hit WHITE pixel -> Check if previous X was NON-WHITE = it means I've hit upper right of field.

X-1 and loop down until I hit WHITE -> That means I've hit lower right corner of field.

I've implemented it and it works but it's stupid as it requires specific format of fields and if fields are fused next to each other with borders touching - It recognizes entire table/form as one giant field as there is no white space between fields.

So shit plan, probably can be done but requires A lot of rules and checks.

2) Store every pixel as boolean (white/non white [white will always be background]) in 2D array.
Now I have massive 2D array (like 1500 down and 900 across) of 0's and 1's - 1's where there is content and 0's where there is empty space/background.

I am just unsure how to search and extract fields from format like:

00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111
11100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000111
11100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000111
11100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000111
11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

So recognize that there is a gap between those 1's and get index of:
Y:3, X:3 as top left of form,
Y:7 X:56.

IF:
Any of those zeroes in between 1's has at least 1 - ignore.

Any ideas/thoughts/tips how to get this done?

Note: It's not a commercial application, it's just a conversion tool I am trying to make so efficiency doesn't matter.

I'd have a user model (which would include a profile picture attribute) and then a friend table of user_id, friend_user_id references. You could then find all the friend_user_id values where the user_id of the logged in user matches to get the profile pictures.

The include paths are for Intellisense, not for the compiler.

Find out which include paths your compiler uses and insert those paths into c_cpp_properties.json.

network messaging? If i'm imaginging things correctly, you probably have a tight coupling between your apps. If you want to break the coupling, use a messaging system. Like RabbitMQ or something.

I could be wrong, but you should provide more details. Like how are you sending your messages?

It's just a PyQt GUI app that lives on client workstations. There's a server that's hosting a website and the database that everything interacts with. Originally, I had the workstations checking the database for new rows but there was a race condition involving a workstation setting a new row to old before the others could get to it.

I got rid of that and decided to write a script that lives on the server and does the row checking itself. If it finds one, it just sends a network signal to the workstations to refresh their tables. Ideally, I'd like to have the workstations send a message back to the server confirming the signal.

I'm currently using multiprocessing.connection to do all the networking. It worked briefly before I implemented threading and queues to pass the network object between threads. The script needs to both loop the listening interface and the row query which happens every ten seconds. I've been having problems with blocking functions which I solved by moving things around. Most recently, when the client connects to the socket, the server-side script just ends with exit code 0.

Here's how the server script currently looks, "Maria" is the nickname for the server-script, "Pierre" for the GUI app its communicating with.

Is there any way for the interval to do it by sets for example-- 0-2, 6-8?

Reason being I am selecting pixels in an image:

0   1    2    3    4    5

6   7    8    9    10  11

12  13   14   15   16  17 

18  19   20   21   22  23

Through standard interval I can select every so many rows range(0,23,2). Only way to do the same for columns is sets in intervals.
In this instance I would want 0-5, then 12-17.

(New to programming I apologize.)

If I'm understanding you correctly you'd probably want to use two nested for loops. I'm not familiar with Python so this is almost certainly the wrong format and it may need some tweaking to get it exactly how you need but something like this should be a decent starting point:

for (i = 0; i < length; i += range + offset) {
    for (j = 0; j < range; j++) {
        //Do whatever you need for each pixel here
        //You'd need to use i+j to select each individual pixel.
        //For example for 0-2 and 6-8 you'd want a length of 24 according to the grid you gave, range of 3, and offset of 3
    }
}

Definitely makes sense now, thanks.

The funny part is when you mentioned it I remember I have done something similiar to it before.

#include <cstdio>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <iostream>
#include <unistd.h>

using namespace std;

//User Input Variables
int seed;   //User input of seed
int times;  //User input of loops

int posx;           //Position on board X Coord
int posy;           //Position on board Y Coord
int startPos;       //Size divided by 2 = starting position

//Memory Variables
int clk;        //Stores initial times entry
int rep = 0;    //Stores amount of repetition

char cardinal[4] = {'N','S','E','W'};

//Error Variables
int err = 0;
string error[6] =  { "Errors: None","Errors: Exceeded Maximum Repetitions",
                     "Errors: Walked off Board to the South!",
                     "Errors: Walked off Board to the North!",
