  1. think division by zero or the Real square roots of a negative number, also check out wikipedia.
  2. Good plan Emeralis, distract him with TVTropes
  3. What he said is still true, undefined means that literally anything could happen, from a segfault to printing out the meaning of life. It is the behaviour that is undefined, and it may be fixed at compile time, run time, or even bath time.

    do you see the mod button at the bottom of the sidebar?
  6. ... you're obviously new to this, arent you stop revealin' yo plans, duuuuude.
  7. if you want an OS which you can browse the web on then Ubuntu is probably the most easy to use, though like Eero said, the performance wont be great. Wordprocessing is kinda difficult cause you're stuck with either web-based ones, or open office, which sucks the left one. If you wanted to actually learn some linux, I suggest checking out Arch linux. It gives you a bare-bones installation, without a GUI or anything, and you have to learn how to install each of the bits. I've been using it as my desktop OS for the last 4 years now, and it's worked perfectly as a browser, mediaplayer (VLC), programming interface (various languages), and chat (pidgin) which is all that I really use. You could also learn to produce professional grade documents/papers/etc with (La)TeX, and the editors on linux are good enough.
  8. Woooo, thats great. Sorry to hear of Mi'ch's health. Glad to hear she's gotten better. Now you best get your staff under control, before they spike ALL the people
  9. it is likely to be like this public class Rational{ private int numerator; private int denominator; // along with getters (and maybe setters) for each of those values public int add(Rational op2) { // snip } } Though there is some issues, the add function should be returning a Rational should it not? And the return statement should be `new Rational(sum, commonDenominator);` ?
  10. Oh noes, Eric got to you first you're doomed, I say... DOOOOOOOOoooooooOOOooOOoooOOoooOOOOMED... lol I'm kidding, but you need to watch him, for he likes to spike people. Great to have you here, and I'm really glad you are enjoying Brandon's work so much
  11. heh, its a very basic 3column table where you put what you want in prev,this,next attributes XD

  12. Well I would say that Malazan gets far far FAR better than the first one. Not that I have any legs to stand on; I didn't like The Hunger Games much, and so am not going to give the followups any time.
  13. I concur with Eric, any and every contribution you make, whether it just be lots of little spelling or layout tweeks, or bigger more grand rewrites of what we have to be more complete and particularly more readable, every idea you have is welcome. Pretty much anything and/or everything you do we will be grateful for. So yeah, just edit away. Any and every article is up for pretty much constant improvement, and as long as you dont mind others tinkering with your edits, everything goes
  14. I used to have (up until about September) a Nokia 3410: That worked a treat for what I needed it for, I don't use it much lol. Now I've got a boring Samsung slidey phone from about 5 years ago, which is functionally worse than the 3410 XD. I'm thinking of a tablet/smartphone, but I don't use my phone enough to justify a contract, and my technology addiction is satisfied by my computer. So *shrugs*, maybe sometime in the future, when all phones are significantly better than what's on offer atm.
  15. That includes 99% of everywhere

    I'd love to see you try and oust Eric, considering the amount of spikes he'll have control of now
  17. Hey there Leven, great to have you here. Thanks for the help on the wiki

    Very well deserved spikes all around Congrats to you all.
  20. They don't really deserve it, they're pretty bad at what they do.
  21. Hey there Fungi, great to have you aboard... are you a fun guy?
  22. Of course you can pm me whenever , and you can get rid of the no-caps-in-titles thing if you want That sounds like you have it all planned out for getting prizes
  23. Not at all, tbh your contributions themselves so far have made you worthy of an award (if only because you're one of the only contributors). Your plan sounds like a fantastic one. I find it very hard to write articles (or any significant chunk of anything). I find it much easier to go in and fix little things, or add small amounts of facts, etc. Which doesnt lead itsself to removing stubs, but more to adding MORE stubs XD. Any and all types of contributions are welcome
  24. Sorry, I meant the two sets of symbols found in Well of Ascension and Hero of Ages, the historical ones, you can find digital versions on Isaac's website, here and here
  25. Hey there Windrunner. Thanks for the wiki contributions . We've been thinking about this, and our ideas so far is to have a monthly theme, and the most awesome contributor(s) of that month get a forum award. Once that starts picking up steam, some particularly amazing contributions (anything comparable to Eric's shard article in completeness) would possibly get a prize sent their way.
