There was too many stupid spam comments. Discovered reCAPTURE through lifehacker, basically a CAPTCHA but it helps digitize books as well as stopping those pesky spam bots from submitting comments. Its also accessible for the visually impaired!
Its a good thing!

Yes, I did it and it didn’t actually take that long. I have found that C++ is far easier to read input from the terminal than in java, too many complications. First you have to create an “in” buffer then read the buffer to a string the convert it to an int. Far too much effort compared to “cin”.
Next task: create GUI

Haha, updated my tree generator that I made last year when I was bored. Its really basic, has no real GUI and is probably not that well written, but I love it, and so should you. It now takes an integer as input and generates a tree to the terminal of that size. The best tree has to be a 0 size tree:
I
I
@
or “The Stick” :p
Anyway, it needs to be run from the command line, so if you don’t know how to do this, take a look at GCC (the GNU compiler for C++ (and C as well, I think, correct me if I’m wrong))
If you happen to want to make a GUI or some way for anyone to run it, cos I don’t know C++ that well to make one, feel free, just give credit and let me know!
I might port it over to java if I get really bored at some point, yey!
Anyway here is the source for My Tree Generator.
[EDIT] Oh yeah, and the code is very, errrm, uncommented, sorry.

Yes, lots and lots of updates, as you can see I am updating so much. Anyway, my dissertation has pretty much got a whole 2 chapters done! and as its a software engineering one I have to show good software engineering practices, which means testing. I am thinking that I will try an open testing phase at some point when things are actually coded so will put it up here, for anyone to have a play and give some feedback. So until I remember to update again, and/or if I make a program. Might try something Christmassy (sp? is it actually a word?)…
Also, might give Project Wonderful a go.
And anyone got any better theme suggestions?

Hello all. All being anybody who happens to find this site and reads this, if that is anybody…
I am currently doing my uni disertation on a piece of software for playing games on graphs and teaching the teachniques to the player. This might get released here when its done, depending on if I am allowed as I am extending an existing project from last year.
This post is also a test from using google docs & spreadsheets. It works really, really well and seems much nicer than open office on my mac. I might even use it to write a proper document :O
Right, that is all for now.

I made this site to put my programs and other apps that I will try and be making over summer to improve my programming skills for next year at uni.
I may try and make a theme and/or a brand new website from scratch at somepoint.
