#programming help

[awizardmostkitty]

would it be possible to like... ask for programming advice? there's some really smart ppl around and to be honest I've confused myself a bit too much perhaps haha. explaining more below the cut because it's a bit of a lengthy explanation.

essentially I'm trying to parse an ID string into the way I'm formatting my json files. the format looks like this:

{

"name" : (name, string),

"id" : (id, string, they look like "e[a]" or "d[e[a]]^o.d.o" or something like that, there's a lot of variety),

"op_count" : (int, the number of individual runes combined to create this one. Each rune could be made up of smaller runes, so if I know which runes are in it I can reduce the op_count by combining those rather than each one individually),

"operations" : {

"base": {

"path" : (filepath to that rune's json, optional)

(if "path" isn't here, then either it already has the json, or else it's empty, as is the case for a combination like "('[n.k.n.k]', o)" which begins with a group rather than a single rune)

},

"op": (either one or sometimes two characters specifying which operation is performed),

"mod" : {

(Follows the same structure as "base")

}

}

there's a couple more quirks to this. If there's multiple operations, then each operation and mod will be "op#" and "mod#" with # being which operation it is. Grouping symbols like "[", "(", "'[", or "'(" follow a slightly different format for applying an operation, they instead become part of the mod, without really advancing the count of the mod# unless it's something like a group within a group. Here's an example of a completed one, I've done a number of these by hand which is why I have it:

{ "name": "Laughing", "id": "('[n.k.n.k]', o)", "op_count": 3, "operations": { "base": {}, "op1": "", "mod": { "type":"()", "mod1":{ "type":"'[]'", "mod1":{"path":"res://scripts/json/yes.json"}, "op2":".", "mod2":{ "path":"res://scripts/json/yes.json"} }, "op3":",", "mod3":{ "path":"res://scripts/json/action.json"} } } }

Because I've done a number of these by hand already, I'd rather not change the format, but if it's absolutely necessary then I'll push on through.

I've gotten it so that I have a list of each composite rune ID as well as a list of how many operations have been performed by the time that ID appears in the list, and a second list of each operation (opening and closing a group are considered separate operations until they're in the json, so that I can figure out where a group ends) and how many rune IDs have been seen by the time that operation is performed.

This sort of allows me to cross reference the list to get an idea of what happens where, but I've driven my brain right out of my head trying to figure out how to use these to get a string like "a.(b,c)" to turn into something like:

{

"name" : (name),

"id" : "a.(b,c)",

"op_count": 2,

"operations":{

"base": { (data for "a") },

"op1": ".",

"mod": {

"type" : "()",

"mod1": { (data for "b") },

"op2" : ",",

"mod2": { (data for "c") }

} } }

I don't know if I've made any sense at all, I'm not a bad programmer I promise I've just spun myself in circles over this 😅

no need to worry about where I get the data for "a," "b," and "c," that part's taken care of. Just need to parse the id string into the json format if I can.

okay, tumblr-backup is working GREAT for me EXCEPT now it wont make an archive of my blog. like, i keep running it, and it makes the .first-run-options file, but no "posts" or "media" folders show up, and no posts get downloaded. i finished archiving my original posts, but i really need to run it again grabbing my writing with the notes archived, because a lot of writing is saved in the replies. it just keeps skipping over posts as if it's seen then before and doesn't need to archive them but im trying to tell it to archive them again anyway! i've gone to new folders, saved it on and off my external hard drive, i've zipped and deleted my old archive, i've deleted and freshly installed tumblr-backup, i don't know what else to do. please can anyone tell me why this is happening? i dont know if i can copy all these notes by hand

Could I get some help from coderblr?

I was relegated the legacy code of a game, which has a lot of problems. The owner burnt out from the technical debt, and I have no idea how to tackle it properly since I was given the code (2 years ago, maybe more)

The code is all in 1 file. From memory, there are at least 30k LOC. The methods are not documented, and several arguments can be of two classes which are not under the same polymorphism, and really shouldn't be (a character and a location).

I don't know what I should do first: split the classes into files but keep shared methods, split classes and shared methods, documents all the file, migrate to better libraries, bugfix everything I can, maybe a secret option?

Thanks for reading!

hey would any python programmers be willing to help me with my code? i’m having a small issue with an if statement and stack overflow won’t let me post a question

[lind-l-t4ylor]

Need help figuring out this error... Noticed it only occurs once the delays are added. If I only use line 18-21, it functions fine.

[star-byrd]

anyone have tips on learning the basics of linear algebra in approximately seven days. trying to take a datamining class and i might have dived directly into the ocean.

[mabeloid]

can someone who's better at coding please tell me what this bug is

(chessgamesarr is a dtype=str numpy array)

why is it cutting the last two characters off why is it doing that i thought it might be a character limit thing but that only is 58->56 long that would be a weird number to cut off at

[siris-neon]

I'm supposed to use Assembly to make a game for one of my college courses, anyone have any tips or advice?

[ukagakadreamteam]

🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️how to make run-time? my time works perfectly fine for two hours, minute resetting to zero and hours increasing properly, but then the minutes start counting past 60 after two hours, even reach 100, and the hour does not increase

If you need help debugging, we'll need to see what code you're working with!

Feel free to send it in text form or as a screenshot here, or you can join our Discord server to get more immediate help.

Writing Data to text file gives error,unknown parameter

hi All

I am trying to write some parameter to a py file as follows

Let’s say I have the m-file 1 that contains the parameters like p=2,,,, q=3*p ,,,,,, and tf=1

m-file 2 is a function like : mvar(m) , I always assign m=1,

file 1 runs m-file 2 that contains these lines:

fid = fopen(‘myparams.py’, ‘w’);

fprintf(fid,’p1 = %d\n’,p1);

fprintf(fid,’q = %0.12f\n’,q); fprintf(fid,’tf= %0.12f\n’,tf);

to write them on the third file myparams , it writes the first 2 but for the last one, tf , it gives error , while it is introduced in the same way also I dont know the difference of %d\n with %12f\n

the error is

Function is not defined for ‘tf’ inputs

%d is used when you want to write an integer (1,2,3,…)

%f and all derivative (%12f,…) are used to write float numbers (specify the precision, add spaces,..)

see the help of fprintf.

and I just try the code bellow, it works.p = 2; q = 3*p; tf = 1 ;fid = fopen('myparams.py', 'wt'); fprintf(fid,'p1 = %d\n',p); fprintf(fid,'q = %d\n',q);

I think unity hates me

I'm trying to make like. a good nice slope that my character can walk on right

but everything is so fucking jagged

like I use the smooth height tool. it barely works

it makes like these weird little jaggedy hill things that make it impossible to walk anywhere and I kind of want to cry

PLEASE. HELP

[surfacedfox]

I think I have finally understood how to use C++ in Unreal after all these years?? and tbh I kinda hate it lmao. this is most likely, very much just my brain being my brain in a low-stimulation environment from having this knowledge, because the way it works is not just "hey let's learn something new" it's "memorize this pattern and apply it 10x". Honestly, I'd really, really love to be proven wrong on that one, but all of a sudden, the general advice to program in BP and then convert it to c++ makes sense now

[zorangezest]

humanformers au where these two get to bond because they’re both tech savvy programmer nerds or somethibg

more of this au!
