uh, this is starting to resemble my usual linux experiences :D

What distro are you running

it's ubuntu

version?

uhm

16.04?

not quite sure how to check, one sec

it's WSL

oh

yes, it's 16.04

I see that automake 1.14 has only existed in 14.04 ubuntu

Does the ltc not have a source for 1.15 automake?

well it's the latest version

so that's not really up to me to choose

I tried resetting wsl

maybe that'll help

Probably won't, the issue is in the mismatch of automake versions

maybe I'll manage to install automake 1.14

maybe I'll manage to install automake 1.14

You can try installing a debian package from https://packages.debian.org/jessie/all/automake/download

But this could screw your setup over

great

oh nvm

just a lil bit of googling should solve it

managed to install 1.14.1 from deb package!

I think it's compiling now, cool!

fingers crossed it actually goes through this time

Hi friends join in this hackers group

so now I'm stuck on boost tar.bz2 exctraction :D

no idea why it goes so slow

I don't think it's reasonable to wait 1+ hour for it to finish

Looks like a meme

@roxifas, is it normal to have archives extracting that long? how to deal with them? this is boost_1_64_0.tar.bz2, its around 80 megs

now I'm trying btc source

still the same

they all use basically the same stuff

@roxifas, is it normal to have archives extracting that long? how to deal with them? this is boost_1_64_0.tar.bz2, its around 80 megs

Absolutely not

What are you trying to do, can't you just use the binaries?

nah, I want to try out the source code

I'm sure the binaries work jsut fine

So you want to have to deal with compilation issues? :D

well do I have any another choice?

I mean I'd like to create my own coin just for fun

binaries don't really help me :D

hi

heyo

Hey

hello everyone

C++ Comma Operator: 2. Nice usages http://blog.codeisc.com/2018/01/09/cpp-comma-operator-nice-usages.html

Interesting read... Do you know what was the reason for additing the comma operator into the language at all?

i think it was a simple way to chain expressions that in the start was very useful but when the language grew it stoped being "really useful"

for simple languages, having the comma operator is very convenient

please help me . see you pictures and help me to

@roxifas

Does anyone have suggestions on how much error to allow when comparing 2 doubles (8 byte floating point numbers) for equality?

I am comparing with fabs(num1 - num2) < ALLOWED_ERROR and ALLOWED_ERROR is a preprocessor macro for a small positive number

In modern C++, you might want to use std::numeric_limits<double>::epsilon(), to represent this very small float number. std::numeric_limits<double>::epsilon() returns the difference between 1 and the smallest value greater than 1 that is representable by a double. Assuming 64-bit IEEE double, there is a 52-bit mantissa and 11-bit exponent. Hence, the smallest representable number greater than 1 is: 1.0000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000001 × 2^0 = 1 + 2^-52 there fore, std::numeric_limits<double>::epsilon() is 2^-52. If you want to define this epsilon by hand, in C++, you might want namespace { const constexpr double kEpsilon = 2e-52; } // namespace in C, you might want static const double kEpsilon = 2e-52; Predefined preprocessor macro is not recommend.

what was the code formatting tag again?

three backticks?

what was the code formatting tag again?

Single backticks for one line, three backticks for multi-line code tags

thanks

printf("test");

nice

the following is probably a bit too long though

its a small c program to switch the word order in a character array: https://gist.github.com/harry-/d76646f4d30654566349bc4d1923c3d3

oh dear

I tried to do it as short and elegantly as possible

happy to hear any comments

You should make the outer loop as such: for (int i = size - 1; i >= 0; i--) so that inside the loop it's like this: if (sentence[i] == ' ')

hm, I think I did that for a reason, but I'll give it a try

yeah, now the last word is getting swallowed

I can do if (sentence[i] == ' ' || i == 0)

but now the first letter of the first (last) word disappears

because there's no space in front of the first word, right

Ok then, everything else seems fine

thanks

I added fgets to read in a different sentence each time

also, someone told me to add a return value

guess it doesnt hurt
