| Sky89 <Sky89@sky68.com>: Apr 24 08:30PM -0400 Hello... Read this: I have just revolutionized computing with my following very new inventions that are my following new scalable algorithms and there implementations: I have just invented "scalable" LIFO stacks, they come with different characteristics: blocking and not blocking and bound and unbound and they are suited for Real-time systems. And i have just invented "scalable" priority FIFO queues, they come with different characteristics, blocking and not blocking and bound and unbound and they are suited for Real-time systems. I will sell them to Google or/and to Microsoft or/and to other software companies.. So stay tuned ! Thank you, Amine Moulay Ramdane. |

Hm, what > about gfortran? We ran into a problem there also. Not a bug but a lack of an old commonly used print extension (carriage control of the device using the first character printed). So we have yet to finish the port as the conversion of our code will require some 10,000 lines of code to changed. But a C++ conversion will require the same conversion so all work in that direction will be good. Thanks, Lynn |

They fixed one bug (a limit of 300,000 global symbols in the linker) and we cannot duplicate the second problem in a subset of our source code (a failure to automatically initialize all local vectors to zero). We are not giving them our source code. Thanks, Lynn |

This would help C language development. Not having to be "C++ compatible", C could devlop in the direction it always had: Stability Speed Simplicity A language that doesn't fill your brain with computer trivia. jacob |

It's interesting - I don't know just when or how I came by this understanding, but I know that it happened relatively early in my programming education. I remember being conscious of this principle, in more or less the same phrasing, at an early time, but don't remember hearing it directly expressed. There were some strong influences that definitely contributed, and it's possible it came from one of those. But even if they didn't use the same words I'm sure the idea resulted from those teachings. It was only much later that I realized that many programmers have learned this not through teaching but only later after years of experience. There isn't any real point to the above reminiscing. I thank you for the positive comment. |
