| 18:16 | < AnnoDomini> | Hmm... Does anyone know how to make a text output center on a point, in Visual C++? |
| 18:16 | < Vornicus> | Depends on your library. |
| 18:17 | < AnnoDomini> | Um... I'm trying to do it using Device Contex. |
| 18:17 | < AnnoDomini> | *Context |
| 18:17 | < Vornicus> | However, if you don't have a direct center-align button, you usually do it by measuring the extents of your text and using that to locate the corner you /can/ choose the location of. |
| 18:19 | < AnnoDomini> | Ah. |
| 18:19 | <@ToxicFrog> | (also kind of depends whether we're talking curses, UI, or framebuffer here) |
| 18:20 | < Vornicus> | Device Context generally means framebuffer. |
| 18:20 | < Vornicus> | I think. |
| 18:20 | < AnnoDomini> | The thing that's CDC* in MS Visual C++. |
| 18:21 | < Vornicus> | Or, essentially framebuffer. Device Context is a drawing panel. |
| 18:21 | < AnnoDomini> | That's about the only thing I know more or less how to use. |
| 18:21 | < AnnoDomini> | Not that the bloody farker TA bothered to teach us that. |
| 18:22 | < Vornicus> | Really you should look into using the more high-level stuff, rich text controls, etc. |
| 18:33 | | You're now known as TheWatcher |
| 19:08 | < AnnoDomini> | Okay, how did I screw this one up? http://pastie.caboo.se/33803 <- quantity is a positive integer, howmuch initially equals quantity, howmany is the counter of iterations. |
| 19:08 | < AnnoDomini> | For some reason, it infinite loops often. |
| 19:09 | < GeekSoldier> | what values does quantity get fed? |
| 19:10 | < AnnoDomini> | 1 to MAXINT. |
| 19:10 | < GeekSoldier> | it seems that nothing change in this loop. |
| 19:10 | < GeekSoldier> | when is quantity modified? |
| 19:10 | < AnnoDomini> | Not in this loop. |
| 19:11 | < AnnoDomini> | It's a semi-global value, defining a lot of things. |
| 19:11 | < Vornicus> | That explains it then. |
| 19:11 | < Vornicus> | You keep reinitializing howmuch from quantity. |
| 19:11 | < GeekSoldier> | howmuch will end up being the same througdout the loop, then. |
| 19:11 | < Vornicus> | Yep. |
| 19:11 | < AnnoDomini> | What? But how? |
| 19:12 | < Vornicus> | let's say quantity = 1000 |
| 19:12 | < AnnoDomini> | Oh. |
| 19:12 | < AnnoDomini> | WAIT. |
| 19:12 | < Vornicus> | what's quantity / 10? |
| 19:12 | | * AnnoDomini facepalms. |
| 19:12 | < AnnoDomini> | That's supposed to be howmuch /10. |
| 19:12 | | * GeekSoldier sees the lightbulb pop over AnnoDomini's head. |
| 19:12 | | * AnnoDomini eats it, in anger at own lack of observation skills. |
| 19:12 | < GeekSoldier> | it's ok. |
| 19:12 | < GeekSoldier> | we've all been there. |
| 19:13 | < Vornicus> | I believe there are existing functions for exactly this job though. |
| 19:14 | < AnnoDomini> | Well, I don't know of any, so I'm improvising. |
| 19:15 | | * AnnoDomini just wants to know how many digits the number has, BTW. |
| 19:15 | < Vornicus> | oh, well. |
| 19:15 | < Vornicus> | (int)log10(num) |
| 19:15 | < Vornicus> | it's not as cheap, but it's short. |
| 19:16 | < GeekSoldier> | hmm. interesting, vorn. I've never seen that. |
| 19:16 | < AnnoDomini> | Er... That would be the floor of the logarithm? |
| 19:16 | | * jerith nods. |
| 19:16 | < Vornicus> | ...bah, got it wrong anyway. |
| 19:17 | < Vornicus> | (int)log10(num) + 1 |
| 19:17 | < Vornicus> | that's right. |
