and It's GAMER404! - gamer404 - 06-06-2008

And gamer404 is here!

Hi. I'm gamer404(Bet you didn't figure that out). I'm more of a programmer/web designer/ graphic artist than a spriter(I know 10 programming languages), but I'm getting better Smile

Hope this place is better than Pixeltendo, where I go flamed on everyone of my works Rolleyes


cya around,

~Gamer404~

=D

Lets talk shop then comrade. How long have you programmed, what have you programmed, can I see examples [snippets of code] and can you explain how a doubly-linked-list structure format is done in C?

By the way. I've got about 9 years of programming expierence under my belt, don't try to fool me with hello world examples, I expect something more intricate.


RE: and It's GAMER404! - gamer404 - 06-06-2008

I don't know C, just C++ and C#, and I have know idea what a doubly-linked-structure set is.
Your scaring me zee Tongue And I have about 2-3 years experience- I'm 13 dude.

Let's see what I have on this harddrive...

Quick PHP database setup script I wrote today:
PHP Code:
<?php
//connect
$con mysql_connect("$_POST[host]","$_POST[user]","$_POST[sqlpass]");
if (
$con)
  {
  echo 
"Connected to Host";
  }
else
  {
  die(
'Could not connect: ' mysql_error());
  }
//create cocoa database
if (mysql_query("CREATE DATABASE livefire",$con))
  {
  echo 
"Database created";

  }
else
  {
  echo 
"Error creating database: " mysql_error();
  }
//create user table
mysql_select_db("livefire"$con);
$table" CREATE TABLE users
(
Name varchar(15)
Pass varchar(15)
Email varchar(50)
AccType int(2)
)"
;
mysql_query($table$con);
echo 
"Table Intialized";
//create Admin Account
$admin" INSERT INTO users (Name,Pass,Email,AccType)
VALUES ('
$_POST[name]','$_POST[pass]','$_POST[email','2') ";
mysql_query($admin,$con);
echo 
"Administrator Account Created";
//Finish
mysql_close($con);
unset(
$con,$table,$admin);
echo 
"Process Complete!":
?>

Here's an SVG button:
Code:

I'm on a mac right now, so I don't have any C*/GML snippets. Plus, I'm a web junkie Big Grin


RE: and It's GAMER404! - Zee - 06-06-2008

Hmm, the PHP database code is pretty common and simple stuff, and you didn't deviate too much fromt he standard. The and SVG button looks alright, I would suggest getting a consistant formatting style.

Also, if you have any hopes of getting a job involving programming, comment and indent are almost as important as the actual code. After all, it's good form, good practice and self-assisting when you invariably mess up. [It happens to everybody, I'm not being rude here]

You do seem very web-focused. Though, I prefer C# and ASP.NET with SQL where needed more effective myself. Then again, I just like C# more than I like PHP.


RE: and It's GAMER404! - Pigyman - 06-06-2008

Hey, I'm not the only one! I started C# at the age of...12. Nowadays I spend my free time programming with XNA (a C# game creator tool for Windows, Xbox 360, and Zune). I don't do much web development though...so you got me there. I'm fluent in C#, know basic JavaScript, and very, very, very little VB. But that's enough about me, what do you program for fun? Like, any projects that you are working on that would intrest us?

Guy's cool in my book.


Sup.


RE: and It's GAMER404! - gamer404 - 06-07-2008

Thanks for the tips Zee. I've looked at ASP, but I'm a mac guy, so that doesn't work out real well. I am pretty web-focused, and I need to work on formatting Big Grin, but when I think of "Programming Job", that's in like 9 years.

@Piggyman- I would LOVE to do XNA, but my dad's work laptop(The only windows we have) doesn't have a good enough graphics card Sad Let's see, nowadays, I'm part of [url="www.xsoftgames.com"]Xsoft Games[/url] and Have a few projects there. I"ll tell you a little more later(Storming right now).

THanks Geo!
