Use Q&A n00b language!

plz I need codez for program wich cn recogniz face expresions. Want in c#. its urgentz thx.

The benefit of this language is that you (theoretically) would never have to worry about anything because others write the code for you. Practically this language might be hard to master though ;)

It's an OO world.

How about noting down language? Start program RichTextbox Shiny Buttons (no ribbon) Status. Every feature in Word. No menus. End program. (Yes, I'm a experienced programmer in VB.NET)

That's proof of bacon being portable. :)

Actually, everything in VB should start with Dim. Never understood what it means... Dim-witted maybe? :laugh:

Drowning In Misery? Although I was refer Dim as Declare for variables etc.

Klingon. At least code comments would be better.

BeFunge is the best for parallel programming. I had written an interpreter one time but it didn't work. There are plenty of them availible for free, though.

Not as good as BACON, though.

And what plat would you use to form a crossed becon?

Lutoslaw

If you knew BeFunge then you wouldn't say that. There is no BACON which would beat it.

It's a historical thing. In BASIC only arrays could be explicitely declared, with a specified Dimension. Now every kind of variable can be declared but the Dim keyword remained.

It's from the misty days of "Once upon a time" when all variables were arrays. The original keyword was dimension, which later flavors shortened to dim (the old comment indicator, rem, is similarly derived from the keywork remark.) A statement such as

DIM v

was just an abbreviated version of

DIMENSION v(0)

Don't know... I learned something about art and media, but that was to be expected from an art and media study :rolleyes: Never went to school for programming (actually, I just finished school alltogether) :laugh:
