| 01:00 | <@Chalcedon> | gah!!! |
| 01:00 | <@Chalcedon> | why the hell won't you PRINT!!!????!!!!!!!! |
| 01:02 | | * Chalcedon beat python |
| 01:08 | <@Chalcedon> | ... |
| 01:08 | <@Chalcedon> | you are bizzare, machine. |
| 01:09 | < Serah> | Blame Python, not the machine. |
| 01:09 | < Serah> | The machine is only doing what is told. |
| 01:09 | <@Chalcedon> | mmm... true. |
| 01:10 | <@Chalcedon> | I think it got itself into a loop, because once I gave it a new instruction, it printed fine without me altering anything. |
| 01:11 | < Serah> | What really gets me about coding is that I can write some code and it doesn't work. I can pore over it for hours and days until I give up and write the same piece of code in a different file. |
| 01:11 | <@Chalcedon> | and it works? |
| 01:11 | < Serah> | The difference is that the new code works, and the old does not even though they are an exact match. |
| 01:12 | <@Chalcedon> | yay. |
| 01:12 | < Serah> | The most peculiar thing about this whole event was that when I copied the new ( same ) code onto the old ( same ) code, what didn't work before suddenly worked. |
| 01:12 | <@Chalcedon> | .... |
| 01:12 | | * Chalcedon offers stick? |
| 01:13 | < Serah> | I kept the code for a couple of days trying to assertain what the differences were, wether there were any but location and date. But none were appearent. |
| 01:13 | < Serah> | Ghost in the machine? |
| 01:13 | <@Chalcedon> | goodness only knows. |
| 01:14 | <@Chalcedon> | I know windows gets into a loops sometimes, you reload a webpage or network tree and it says "it's not there, I've checked", when it hasn't actually checked /this/ time and you've fixed the problem from last time. |
| 01:14 | <@Chalcedon> | perhaps it is a similar problem |
| 01:15 | <@ToxicFrog> | Serah: if it's python, possibly whitespace issues. |
| 01:15 | | * Chalcedon gives TF a cookie |
| 01:15 | < Serah> | It wasn't. |
| 01:16 | < Serah> | And when I say exact match, I mean exact match. |
| 01:16 | | * ToxicFrog nibbles |
| 01:16 | <@ToxicFrog> | How peculiar. |
| 01:18 | | * Serah nuzzles ToxicFrog |
| 01:18 | | * ToxicFrog pets Serah |

| 02:18 | < Reiver> | This was a good thing. |

| 04:18 | < Reiver> | So, Java. |
| 04:19 | < Reiver> | If one is trying to maintain a chessboard and track the position of the peices on it, is this best to use a static 8x8 array, or an Arraylist? |
| 04:20 | < Reiver> | Upside to the Arraylist is that you only have as many points as you do peices. Upside to the static would be that it'd be less mindbreaking to manipulate, perhaps? |
| 04:20 | | * Reiver is really not sure. |
| 04:22 | | * Chalcedon can't help |
| 04:23 | | * Chalcedon is nowhere near up to doing chessboards |
| 04:23 | <@Chalcedon> | what is an array list? kind of like a coordinate? |
| 04:25 | <@Chalcedon> | (or list of coordinates) |
| 04:25 | | * Chalcedon looks at the potion list... and breaks |
| 04:26 | | * Chalcedon shower |
| 04:27 | < Lukhan> | Who cares about the overhead of an arraylist? premature optimization... |
