Re: Delete unused MySQL indexes 12 Hours Ago by Reverend Jim I faced a similar problem when I created and maintained the corporate side databases to mirror the EMS (AGC/SCADA) real time data. One month of data was roughly 300 meg and it was critical that this be available 24x7. Sometimes databases break and it is important to recover them as quickly as possible. Knowing that around 90% of the queries were on… Re: 💻 What’s the First App You Install on a Fresh Windows Machine? 1 Week Ago by Reverend Jim First app is Macrium Reflect so I can take an image of the fresh install. Then I repartition to C/D, move my user folders (documents, pictures, etc.) to D. Then I take another image. After that I begin installing my base apps before imaging one more time. How secure is Github? 1 Month Ago by Dani I use Github for DaniWeb's code base. I was just wondering though. How secure is it? Would you ever store passwords or other sensitive information in Github (Don't worry. We use .gitignore.)? What about code that could be considered a trade secret, or that type of thing? Re: How to Efficiently Develop Apps for iOS and Android? 2 Months Ago by gorgebutler Developing apps for iOS and Android efficiently requires the right strategy and tools. Using cross-platform frameworks like Flutter or React Native helps save time and effort by allowing developers to write a single code base for both platforms. Optimizing performance, focusing on user-friendly design, and following platform-specific guidelines … Re: How old is your computer? 2 Months Ago by Reverend Jim I stick with Windows because of long familiarity at the office. After years of networking/sysadmin and dbadmin I just had too much invested in MS. Too bad OS/2 died. When we got PC workstations for the control centre operators to interface to our AGTC/SCADA system we went for OS/2. We felt it was far superior to anything from Microsoft at the time… Re: How secure is Github? 1 Month Ago by rproffitt Given the state of affairs in the USA, any security we thought we had is gone. DOGE is gaining access by force now. Do we really need this conversation? Re: How secure is Github? 1 Month Ago by Salem Given who owns github (M$), and their location (U$A), I wouldn't trust anything commercially sensitive with them. Why do you even need it, apart from the simple convenience of it all (that's the trap, make the honeypot sweet enough, plenty will arrive). There's not much there that can't be replicated on a server machine you physically control.… Re: How secure is Github? 1 Month Ago by Reverend Jim I don't trust any online service to store my information, sensitive or otherwise, other than whatever password I use to access a particular site. And I assume (mistake, probably) that they keep only the encrypted copy of the password. I saw an ad a while back (I think it was on Ask Woody) for a service that offered to keep all your financial … Re: How secure is Github? 1 Month Ago by Dani > There's not much there that can't be replicated on a server machine you physically control. Redundancy in the cloud. > How many people have commit rights on your codebase? Every contributor has a complete copy of the entire git repo. So even if you lost everything, you can sync with any of your peers and be back up and running to the… Re: How secure is Github? 1 Month Ago by pritaeas No sensitive info in any CVS. If I had a codebase such as DW, I'd store it in a local git store, synced to another machine of mine. No cloud. Re: How secure is Github? 1 Month Ago by Salem TBH, if it's "just me", then password protected tarballs of your `.git` directory, uploaded to one of the more trustworthy sites might be an option. I wouldn't touch google/onedrive with a barge-pole. Dropbox maybe at a pinch. Personally, I use https://mega.io/ If your DW hosting provider gives you access to filespace outside of the… Re: How secure is Github? 1 Month Ago by pritaeas https://www.theregister.com/2025/03/17/supply_chain_attack_github/ Re: How secure is Github? 1 Month Ago by Dani > https://www.theregister.com/2025/03/17/supply_chain_attack_github/ Well that’s coincidental. Doesn’t seem to apply to our repo though because we don’t use tj-actions/changed-files and use private repos. More to say when I’m not on my phone. Base Conversion Module 16 Years Ago by lapo3399 I'm new to Python, and as I was coding for Project Euler to develop my skills in this language, I needed a function for converting between two bases. I know that int() can convert anything to base 10, but before I looked for a Python module concerning this math, I thought it would be a good idea to try and code one myself. Please, let me know if … Base Conversion Class 14 Years Ago by Patplays852 Below is a Base Conversion Class that will take in any number (up to around 2.4 billion digits (limited by string.substring's integer property)), It will convert from any base to any base (from 2-36 inclusive) It does have some simple error handling such as if you enter a number that is incorrect for its base (ex: FF in base 15 and under), it will… Re: Base Conversions 11 Years Ago by David W @tinstaafl ... a Dani Virtuoso indeed ... very well designed and developed ... and demos the efficent code that can be often obtained by the use of tables.

Originally it was limited to bases 2-16. [code=Python]import string def convDecToBase(num, base, dd=False): if not 2 <= base <= 36: raise ValueError, 'The base number must be between 2 and 36.' if not dd: dd = … Base 10 to base 3 conversion 13 Years Ago by monkeybut I am having trouble figuring out how to convert base 10 to base 3, I have tried several different attempts and this is my latest effort, anyone have any ideas. I was giving this algorithm but am having trouble creating a function for it: [B] 1. Set k to the number of digits needed in the converted number(k = floor(logb(v)+ 1) or (floor(10(v)/… Base Conversions 11 Years Ago by Emma_3 I'm trying to convert a number from any base between 2-36 to any base between 2-36. I have the conversion to base 10, but I'm having trouble getting it from base 10 to the desired base. Any ideas? I know part of this idea will work, I just can't get it all together syntatically. And don't worry about the checks (user inputs number 13, base 2), I'll… Re: Base Conversions 11 Years Ago by David W You do show some nice style in your coding ...

The resulting number has been put into an array and so can be of any size. But the decimal number that i take as input is limited by the range of int. What i want to do is to take it as a string and then change its base. The challenge is that i then cant divide and … Re: Base 10 to base 3 conversion 13 Years Ago by Duoas Your professor has actually given you a complete solution -- but his pseudocode is a bit off. Your function should take only one argument: [b]v[/b] - the value to convert to base 3. Everywhere you see "b" in his pseudocode you should replace that with "3" (because "b" is the [i]base[/i] -- your base is [i]3[/i]).… Re: Base Conversions 11 Years Ago by tinstaafl One way to make your coding more efficient is to use a string to represent the digits that may be encountered: const string digits = "0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"; Now for any base the value of a particular digit can easily be converted to the appropriate symbol just by using the index of `digits`(Hex 'F' has a value of 16 … Re: Base Conversion 11 Years Ago by john.kane.100483 Well here's my program now.

The reason the binary version worked with this approach is because it is working on the bits directly; the `<<` operator is the left shift,… base class pointer and derived class object 13 Years Ago by gauravk_bhanot [CODE]#include<iostream> #include<conio.h> using namespace std; class base{ public: base() { cout<<"base constructor"<<endl; getch(); } virtual void out() { cout<<"I AM BASE"<<endl; getch(); } }; class derived : public base { public: derived(){ cout<&… Re: Base converter 20 Years Ago by Asif_NSU I have this vague idea that when developing an arbitrary precision arithmetic it is necessary to convert a number to a higher base. The number if converted to a higher base will require less digits and so we will get an increase in the speed of multplication, addition etc. Actually my reason behind writing this base conversion program was a first … Base conversion program (C++) 14 Years Ago by jengah27 I'm a little new to c++. I have written a code for a base conversion program. It handles base conversion between bases 2-36 and stops when the user enters "0".
