There will be just one Nigerian politician talking for 10 seconds or more in each audio clip. I'll try to minimize noise, but I can't guarantee this.

Hi, Mr. Seun, thanks a lot, I have replied your message
Well, in summary...
I used a vector editor (Inkscape) to trace out the original image to obtain and generate an SVG file that contained the path i needed,
then, the magic was in the 'strokeDashoffset' style attr of the 'path' tag( in actual sense, this offsets the 'strokeDasharray' attr). When this attr equals the total length of the path string, the image is invisible, but while it decreases and tends to zero, the image is drawn... So the aim was to animate the gradual decrease of this attr.. smiley

I hope I managed to explain it... I might give a tutorial on it if you guys permit me..
Oh.. BTW.. I used Javascript.
Thanks once again.

Wow, congrats... It's funny how simple the whole thing was to achieve... Nice... It's been fun participating and learnt some stuffs too. cool wink

Version 2 released
Seun:

Good attempt, but you got three things wrong:
1) The animation looks like someone drawing a short lines in quick succession rather than actually drawing smooth curves with a pen. FIXED
2) There is no anti-aliasing. All pixels are either black or white. Anti-aliasing makes lines and curves smoother by adding shades of grey. FIXED
3) You didn't maintain the proper aspect ratio for the signature. Depending on user input, the output can be too fat or too skinny (pics). FIXED
FIxed necessary issues (I think undecided)..

Josh Lockhart (Modern Php) - this book is fire,it brought me the good tidings of composer and made my code cleaner since I now follow all psr recommendations.....

Programming PHP -- Rasmus lerdorf,Kevin traore


Essential PHP security --- Chris shifflet


am currently reading speaking JS in my leisure time......

@bizycodin sir,what's good with SLIM ? I'm trying to pick up a micro framework, I wasn't impressed after installing laravel,65 % of the framework was 3rd party code,hence would be sticking to composer....
tried Lumen It's a very fast light weight framework based on Laravel

If you've been following the Greek debt crisis, you may have encountered their new finance minister's upstanding and ballsy signature:

Can you write a program to simulate the signing of that signature at any size?

Your program should allow the user to select the size of the box within which the signature should be signed, and then it should simulate the signing of the signature manually within the box, as if a person is signing it with a black biro. The resulting signatures should be smoothly anti-aliased, just like the original signature above, and it should be sized to fill the user-specified box while maintaining the correct aspect ratio.

You can use Javascript, any JVM language, or Python. Upload as a zip file (yourusername.zip). The writer of the first good entry wins N10k.

hmmm.. How do we "Upload" our solutions ?? need to upload my solution to know if i'm on the right path not to waste my time and energy oo.
