Hi A few months ago i have seen a small "IDE" (it doesn't really deserve the term IDE) for creating and testing small projects in c# (maybe also other .net languages) The idea was just to test, and that you don't have to save, although you are asked if you want to when you exit. The idea was really small and quick, perfect for testing a little code snippet. Does anyone know this application? I've been looking for it via Google and on gotdotnet, but i couldn't find anything Thanks Peter

the name of the component you are mentioning is CFCOM by a company named Odyssey or something like that unfortunately, that extension isn't free of charge, and as a student i can't afford it

I need my own because i cannot use the WMP in a PocketPC2003 application written using .net cf .net cf doesn't support COM

Hi I may have to write my own media player. I'd like to use Microsoft's WMP or DirectShow, but apparently i've got no other choice. What do i have to think about writing an own media player? Or can you refer to a text about my plan? Thanks

Recently a friend and i got into the discussion of the difference between nerds and geeks I think that geeks are more the general technical persons (building, developing, etc.) and nerds are more the Heavy-Users He said that geeks are also the techincal, but nerds have certain knowledge on a specific topic What do you think?

Well, okay, still there is a disconnect here. You seem to be suggesting that 0 has a meaning for people who understand binary as opposed to people who don't. For computer geeks, zero is "off" and one is "on". Both are states of the same switch, so in a sense there are two "things" going on here. Right? But you still can't say "There is 1 type of person who understands binary..." because 1, even in binary, represents a numerical concept of 1 thing, it does not in any way represent the duality of a bit since it is only one of the two values that a bit can hold. Am I missing your point? That was exactly what i thought, your posting made it also more clearly why 10 is written, thanks

Ben Bryant wrote: your question suggests you belong to "those who don't". I think you are mixed up about how a binary digit can have two values, 0 and 1, but in this joke 10 is not being used as a list of these two digits, it is the binary representation of the number 2. i know that 10 represents 2, since my dad made jokes about when i was about 8 (whats 1+1? - 2? - no, 10, hehe) but i just thought this could be possible ...

"There are 10 kinds of people when it comes to binary. Those who understand it, and those who don't." i guess most of you know this quote and i hope most of you understand it but i've got a question why isn't it "There is 1 kind of people ... "? 0 is in the geek world a value and has meaning and does not mean nothing, like in the real world (:-D)

can no one help me?

Hi I'm currently looking forward to purchase a new subnotebook this summer and i haven't decided yet which one to buy It should be a subnotebook (12,1" is maximum, but smaller preferred) if possible, higher resolution than XGA (1024x768) if possible, integrated dvd/cd drive battery life should be more than 4h subnotebook must be available either in europe (Austria) in July or in Asia (Shanghai or HongKong) beginning of August price shouldn't extand €2000 (~ US$2400) Thanks p.s.: I'd really appreciate if you can recommend a notebook out of experiences and write a little text about a subnotebook you recommend and own

Hi My development experience are a real strange phenomena. I'm getting more and more productive as it gets later and later. Before 5pm i'm not very productive, but i found out that my most productive time is between 2am and 4am, not kidding I have no idea why this is so I must also mention that i'm still a student und such productive days are only on weekends, because i must get out of my bed at 6am during the week So how is it with you guys?

Until it's my birthday :-D

hi do you know a CAD-Application for designing electronical plans it should also allow testing those plans, if there are any logical errors freeware are preferred thanks

and does anyone also know or can anyone recommand this book C# and the .NET Platform by Andrew Troelson here's my situation: i'm already a experienced C# developer, but i want now to buy a advanced programming book focused on .Net and C# again thanks for your help

hi i have found this book The Applied Microsoft .NET Framework Programming in C# Collection by Jeffrey Richter and according to the reviews i have seen, it should be very good so how do you think of this book? thanks for your help

you can save the picture and then load the new one to save: System.Drawing.Image img = pictureBox1.Image; img.Save(path, ImageFormat); to load a new one: System.Drawing.Image img2 = System.Drawing.Image.FromFile(path); pictureBox1.Image = img2;

If you mean price inflation, then u're maybe right. yep, i ment the end-use price and i think that most users, the more experienced one, of us could create such a application, at least the basics, even i could make one with .Net and the compact framework it's very easy, but my app would have such a bad user experience and user interface that no one wants to use it :laugh: but i'm pretty happy with my TI 83+ it has everything i need and want and i prefer such a real calculator with real buttons than a software for a PDA

because teacher don't like if you save small hints on your PDA and they can check the TI more easily because they are used to it and such a software that could replace this TI-89 won't be cheap
