good morning everyone
<ykk>
excuse me noobness but how often do you guys use quick sort on an array? just learned about them yesterday and seems like an integral part to programming and something that should be thoroughly understood
<apeiros_>
ykk: why'd you care with a language with ruby?
<apeiros_>
even in C, you'd not write the sorting algorithm yourself, you'd use qsort
<ykk>
it's in a book "Learn to program" by Chris Pine
<apeiros_>
(and ruby's Array#sort uses, or at least used, qsort)
<ykk>
so you would have to ask him that =\
<apeiros_>
well, that's for educational purposes
<apeiros_>
learning about algorithms and efficiency
mmuehlberger has quit [Quit: mmuehlberger]
<apeiros_>
but you'll rarely ever have to implement your own sorting algorithm. that's solved stuff.
<ykk>
ahh
<ykk>
good to know about but not necessary to be able to write my own. gotcha
<ykk>
starting to feel like i started programming too late, oh well
<apeiros_>
meh, it's never too late ;-)
<ykk>
started when i was 12 opening up my ibm pc. the txt files explaining to code were too hard to read and the books always required compilers that I was missing lol

lots of fun digging into foreman today... trying to get resque workers to quit gracefully after crtl+c is sent to foreman
amerine has joined #ruby-lang
<crankharder>
crtl+c is SIGINT pretty much everyhwere, and confirmed by foreman: "^CSIGINT received"
<crankharder>
so why if I remove that call to terminate_gracefully does foreman still die when I press crtl+c ?
<crankharder>
and before anyone asks, I'm removing it in the right instance of foreman inside ~/.rvm/ etc

it's as if trap("INT") bubbles the signal right through to the process... and kills foreman and all the children with SIGINT, instead of "gracefully" which would be SIGTERM -- if you want to dig through the rest of the file

crankharder: if you delete the handler it uses the default INT handler which terminates your process

just not so gracefully
<crankharder>
i didn't delete the handler
<crankharder>
i removed the call to terminate_gracefully
<drbrain>
oh, I misread
<crankharder>
so it should still puts stuff
<crankharder>
and then presumably do nothing else
<drbrain>
I am unsure
<crankharder>
next step was to add Signal.trap("INT"){puts "do nothing") on line 6 here

personally, I think a high level language is good place to start. no need to confuse yourself with pointers, memory allocations and garbage collection just yet.
<badeball>
you have all the time in the world to learn c and I definitely that will make you a better programmer, even if you never end up using it. you will probably look at everything differently afterwards.
<ggreer>
my first language was LOGO (1st grade), then C (7th grade), then TI-BASIC (9th grade), then perl (also 9th grade)
<yianna>
everything is ambgious since now to me that applies to social life
<badeball>
s/definitely/definitely think that/
<ggreer>
all of those languages suck, but at least C lets you write fast things
<ggreer>
today I mostly use javascript and python. I like ruby but I know django better than I know rails
<badeball>
I ended up starting with visual basic 6 for some reason
<badeball>
that's a long time ago

C is a very unforgiving language. I don't recommend starting with it
<yianna>
lol vb6
<yianna>
i started with QBasic and cried a few times
<ggreer>
one time I spent two days trying to track down a bug. it was a single = in a comparison
<yianna>
I was like 10
<eam>
qbasic? vb? Man, I had to start with GW Basic
<ggreer>
modern compilers will probably warn about that
<yianna>
awww gg that sucks lol
<yianna>
was that on your Tandy eam?
<eam>
I really like pascal for teaching

yianna: it was on a DEC Rainbow which dual booted CP/M and DOS, each on a different processor
<badeball>
ggreer: python seperates between expressions and statements, so that'd never happend there
<badeball>
I'm not sure if I like that
<eam>
z80 and 8088
<yianna>
eam: sounds like one of those old school machines but after eproms
<eam>
I was way too young to know any of that stuff at the time
<eam>
I only knew how to make simple loops, and basic CP/M navigation

but in 1998, hp-ux's cc kinda didn't care about linting
<badeball>
I remember my cousin trying to introduce me to C when I was like 13. that didn't go very well :P

badeball: I still have traumatic memories from when I first learned C
<ggreer>
that damn single =
<yianna>
why learn C if I know ruby wouldn't it be better to learn a lower language then C?
<ggreer>
after two days I was almost in tears. my dad looked at my code and said "hey, you have a single equals there"
<yianna>
lol thanks dad
<badeball>
yianna: C works on a much lower level. you need a deeper understanding of how computers work in order to fully utilize the language.

<badeball>
wait, I think I read your question wrong.
<badeball>
yianna: you can't really go any lower than C unless you want to target a specific hardware, in which you could learn assembly.

my friend told me about machine code

she showed me a project she was working on it's similiar to an arduino except more powerful and she said she works on a real low form of code

do not write asm

assembly?
<badeball>
I have fidgeted with assembly and machine code for the x86 platform when I wrote my own dummy language and compiler, but that was purely for academic purposes.
<yianna>
it's not an arduino or pi it's something else
<yianna>
ahhh so there is "machine code"
<yianna>
well she must be a friggin' genius then, no wonder why my noob questions get no response from her lol

yianna: hold on a second there.. you have a female friend working with machine code? *drool*
<badeball>
FEMALE?
<rue>
badeball: STFU.
<yianna>
gender specificity should be redundant when it comes to all things code and geek
