Not that I'm going to help, because I'm not, but the origin of number systems has nothing to do with programming languages, so I don't understand your response, Seten.

Well, I gave him some reputation, and your gratefulness is probably enough anyway. After all, people don't usually help on forums because of all the money they'll make from it. :) But good luck on...

Well. . even among the dedicated members, there is a lot of variation in skill here. Wouldn't it be better to have 3 different levels, similar to Sane's challenge at Daniweb's sister site, PFO?

if you do things like removeAll() on a JFrame or JPanel, then after adding new panels, you might need to call revalidate() or validate(). I've told people that before and they've reported back...

If you declare a method as taking an int as a parameter, then you need to pass that int. i.e. in your setX and setY methods, you cannot call setX(), you have to call setX(PUTANINTHERE!!!)

hope...

This is definitely interesting. Before I get into my crazy idea of how to do this (that involves bit stuffing and using a special character to denote the start and end of images) let me make sure I...

Why is there so much code in your remove method? All you need to do is search linearly through your array looking for an item with the name that matches the String you're searching for. That should...

Your error indicates that you attempted to parse an integer at line 128 of your program (which is correct: it says Integer.parseInt(input)). However, the program was unable to parse an int, because...

Did you even look at his code? The problem is obviously with the way he is reading in the text file.

Get help from a professional, in person, with your write up. Here are some tips since I've been through similar processes myself, but I'm not a professional at this, nor are most anyone on daniweb....

SWT was created for faster native widgets - it is faster because it uses the OS's native tools to draw the widgets, essentially. However, Swing should be plenty fast for most any purposes, and I...

Maybe I misunderstand. But if I was a new member and I didn't know who knew what they were talking about and who didn't, being able to check the user votes percentage might be a pretty useful metric....

I guess, but without some degree of feedback, nothing can ever improve.

Yeah, I understand how it works. I was saying 50 different members.

Also, jbennet, do you not like sknake? I only ask because I have made more comments about the voting system than he has, but you...

That was like when a comedian makes a funny joke. Except you're not a comedian. And that joke wasn't funny.

Anyway, why not just search my name and down vote every post? Don't be so uncommitted....

The system is idiotic. Lets see how low we can get this post guys. -50?

If you use Java's built in Stack class and Queue class, you can simply call the appropriate methods to add the items on and take them off. For both of them, to add an item on, you probably just use...

abccba

if you add each letter in order to the stack and the queue, here is the final stack and queue (in the order they would be popped off)

My question for him is why he couldn't at least thinly veil the obvious COTS "my professor wrote this and then I pasted it on daniweb"... question

Check is extremely simple actually. If any piece can currently move to the king's position, then the king is in check. Since you already have to implement the ability to allow players to move any...

Considering mods aren't ever bots, I think it'd be safe to write a quick script to let them do their job quickly. (It can't be that hard to write a check for the user's usergroup?)

Actually, at the risk of sounding whiny, I retract my statement. But I still believe that new members misuse the down vote system to "spite vote"

Like the docs say, split does not return the character that was split around. My point in my previous post was that you can easily figure out where the characters were anyway by using a little...

I don't, and I occasionally double post with someone else or vice versa. Serves me right.

:(

My example was pretty long, but try to grasp the concept and I think you'll be able to complete your program. Again, the basic idea I'm proposing is that you multi-thread your application so that the...

Sorry, took too long and couldn't edit my last post. Update:

Ok, so this seems to be the issue: since read() blocks while it waits for input, when the client's receive() method is executed, all...

I have two family members that bought Acer computers at around the same time. This was less than two years ago; neither computer is being used anymore - they both had to buy new laptops because of...

Haha. That's pretty funny and extremely nerdy of them.

I looked through your code, and I don't see a reason why you should be continuously adding and removing the mouse listener. If there is no reason to do so, don't do it. (I.e. it adds nothing to your...

Again: I'm reiterating because I feel very strongly about this.

The "new" buttons that just started showing up suck. They are annoying to look at and they are unnecessary and they serve little purpose. I can already tell which threads I looked at and I don't care...

All I can say to this whole post is hahahahah

Because I find your choice of forums to post this on incredibly inappropriate and funny

Put "Website Major" in your resume, and I bet you never get a job. But seriously, the lack of social skills and self motivation is probably a good cue for where your future is going.
