Guess i'll get one of you to write an application for my thesis for me :3

Oh, crap
What do I have to do exactly? Also you better credit whoever does it.

Well, it's still far off, maybe next month before i start but i intend to write a simple program that stores info to a database of some sort, i havent given it much thought yet but i'll probably use this weekend to read up on how database management systems work and see if it's within my capabilities of even attempting to learn
Credit? Bibliography right? well, lets take it a step at a time :3

Surely you don't know every language there is, nor have mastered any of them. (Surprise me)
What programming languages do you know?
How advanced are you at programming?
Have you created applications or games before?

Well that's very easy. Is it your own project? Or do you have to meet certain requirements?
A database doesn't necessarily have to be a MySQL database or such.
You can also create a textfile, treat it as a database and store your information there.
Also, I don't think any of us should write the thing for you. You have to do it yourself. I'll definitely help you though, should you need it.
Okay, i'm really poor in programming but i'll start a little research on DBMS's tomorrow

Of course not. But learning new languages that I will never want to use is not exactly thrilling.
Quote:What programming languages do you know?
I'm going to translate "know" as "have used before".
C#, Java, C++, C, and html (if you count that). Actionscript from high school, but considering that would really be pushing the definition of "programming language" into a grey area.
Quote:How advanced are you at programming?
Not very.
Quote:Have you created applications or games before?
Applications all the time. Games not since high school (I actually find the graphics aspect extremely boring and tedious to make, and text games are no fun to play).
Quote:Fix SSAA?
Change the ints back to floats, done. Nobody cares, it's just a running joke at this point. I have no idea how to PROPERLY fix it without undoing the changes made in r6549.

It's pretty easy depending on what tools you're using.

Yeah, and you just ruined it. Booooooo NaturalViolence!

I really want to start working on my mouse app for iOS/Android, but I have to figure out how to deal with gyroscope input first. I already made an app for Android (I called it "Tilt Mouse", I never released it) that lets you tilt your phone to move the mouse on a Mac or Windows machine. I want to take it farther and offer all kinds of different input methods.
