Oh ok thats acceptable, lol Tis should be of help. I learn markdown using it --> http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/syntax

Yeah I just followed the link on your fb page.

An advise: You github repo doesn't look convincing enough to be trusted. I aint saing it isint, as a matter of fact i have forked it and am watching it. However you really need a good 'readme' preferable in markdown . Your account is `organisational` and not private so give a breakdown of the project as markdown in your readme so its looks completely professional.

@megaplaza ok cool. Didn't know that you still base on a lang but learn others. I have read part of that book, i just never finish it. By the way you owe me an android app, hmm I wont forget that.

Hmm to be honest its actually getting freaking annoying. I can give you a list of 5,000 projects right now then what? You then find someone to implement it for you. Then what? You graduate without any reasonable skills.

My advise is for you to think of somethng you want to do. Something that flows in your blood. Trust me you are better off that way. You dont have to contact someone personally and paying for something you can equally get paid for.lol.

If you see my advise as useful then please do as i say and lets know. If you see it as useless then you can go on contacting hungry humans,

Correct your github link

Ermm your question is vague, Break it down and whats a `Da`?

Seun:
It's primarily a better Java.

hmmmm

lol if , I was able to get on your case fast enough, your posts aren't restored yet tho.

Cool, I almost got lost on the application, lol

pls wat dd d 'babcock guys' do?

I mean he has the code already so no point doing it again

Well omo_to_dun has that already, lol No point re-doing it

Danyl:
//declaring the Textfields
JTextField f1,f2,f3,f4,f5,f6,f7,f8,f9,f0,f11,f12,f13,f14,f15,f16;
JPasswordField pasw;
//declaing the textareas
JTextArea a1,a2,a3,a4,a5,a6,a7,a8,a9,a10,a11,a12,a13,a14,a15,a16;

//initializing textfields

a14=new JTextArea(6,10);
a15=new JTextArea(6,10);
a16=new JTextArea(6,10);

Wow didn't you get tired of typing the same thing over and over? Just create an array of type JTextField/JTextArea and use a for loop to initialise them all

Ok it looks ok but very redundant. You have some things here that you shouldn't.

1 --> You dont want someone to be able to bypass your login for without actually login in. So set undecorated to true. Flowlayout?? Naaa not good enough, set your layout to GridLayout(3,2)


2 --> You are using some "almost fully deprecated" stuff

Hashtable hash;
Vector v;

Gone are the days of those. You need to us them generically.

Hashtable<T> hash = new Hashtable<T>();

3 --> I really dont see the use of those data-structures, If you have your username and passwords in an XML file or database, just check if they exist rather than loading them first, saves time.

4 --> When you successfully login, how do you load up details of the logged in user or whatever? You need to pss the username and password via the constructor of PatManager or take in a different stuff and pass, and then you can use it to pull out data.

The way i would have done it is:
-> a successful login
-> pass username and password to a utility called `LogedInuser` or anything better. This class would pull all necessary data from the database/xml/txt/yaml and load them into variables. This is helpful because I don't have to waste time loading stuff like that again during the actual program's runtime

Hmm woud take a look at it, yes i can give you a snippet but unfortunately i have removed he JDK7 from my system, When its officially out fo download I would rewrite it and pass it, by the way why do you anna use jdk7? I can still write it tho and then you test it yasef

You are still tryna learn everything,  A language that doesn't change the way you think is not wort knowing. I would advice you stick to something for now nd not trying to learn everything

Google translator should be fine

Hey man sorry, finally got to this thread, too many threads to look at combined with other stuffs, Have you finished ur login form?

Hmmm yeah am not too conversant with the CMS or joomla thingy, I normally write ma code from scratch.

And what language is your source in? Are you making use of any IDE's if no then what system u using? Mac, Linux or Windows?

HAhhahahhahah

Cool, good for you, So you into software development or web development?

Hahhaa you sound frustrated,  Something like, "Damn just too many languages and too many people saying different things". Well, to be honest the more languages you know the better BUT is it really worth trying to know them all? Before going into another language, make sure you are at least an intermediate in your current lang. Trust me its not worth being a petty programmer. You dnt wanna be someone who knows how to program in 10 core languages but cant develop a tangible application in 2 of them.

The easiest way I can define Functional programming is "A way of programming, ignoring either state or behaviour". Just like the name functional, it is programmed like mathematical functions. Cant say more.lol

Is it worth learning a functional language like Haskell? Hmmm. I would give you a few qualities of functional programming that I know.
1 - They are very very terse. Straight to the point.
2 - Very safe for multithreading
3 - It aint gat side effects
4 - You can easily test them

and some more i cant remember ,  I really don't know about the disadvantages or fallbacks cause I don't even care.lol. And just so you know, you can achieve a functional style in java too

Answering you question with regards to where it can be applied, I don't see people developing software with full fleshed functional languages like Haskell, rather they are used for calculations and the likes. So kinda like writing 500 lines of code to help with some funky calculations you do everyday as a clerk

Some students in ma school use it to improve their problem solving skill. Just like saying develop a bank application in one file without objects(Java) Nw dats some task. So they take a very big mathematical problem and rather than solving it easily with an advanced lang, they go functional(Dats madness for me but its fun)

Finally, I can see you are trying to learn as much languages as you can and it has got you wondering if programming is difficult. Well, you made it difficult for yaself. You don't have to listen to what am about to say next because am just a student but trust me I know what am saying. DON"T learn a language just because you want to know it or because a friend knows it. There are soo many other things you are yet to see in the language you already know. If you have to learn a new language, make sure it serves a purpose that no other language which you already know serves.

Hmmm all those stuff are for people who know HTML and maybe a lil bit of css and not actually programmers, lol but seriously wats the point of calling a site urs when you cant even code  it. I probably would leave wordpress outta it. For instance an currently developing a site built into wordpress ,  Yeah am taking advantage of their admin console so I dnt have to create my own dashboard like i always do.

And finally, when exactly are we going to face other things apart from always talking about NL? No-one ever gets tired innit?

Haha ur on it man, You can put ma name under project manager nd remove oyewale, also refine the list, remove inactive pple,

Please what is this CMS thingy yall talking about?

Yeah i can create a mailing list, i have the resources to do so but its not worth it,  We aint more than 3 working here so lets just play simple for now, Pls change ma emil to "support at fayimora.com" and "info at fayimora.com". Also, shift ma name from programmers. They are already too much,

thanks mobinga

Yaaay Interaction design is in m syllabus, The previous 3rd years had to design a twitter app dats more user friendly then twitter and some extra stuff too, Have you taken it, would you recommend i add it to ma modules?

Hahahha naa I know it aint no virus. Just dnt have time for excel and i usually think its not opening with the right program. Just checked it out now. Yeah in terms of giving someone to read then maybe ur CSV is better but structurally and from a programming pont of view, XML should be better.

Ok I think its hight time i asked. What exactly is this csv of a thing? Anytime I open a csv file it starts opening m excel so i just close it right away, What exactly is it? Also, i prefer using XML
