C++ -> Flash

I am trying to make this into flash:

class Ccc

{

public:

char name[100];

int startTime;

int endTime;

cc() //constructor

{//null out everything

name[0]='\0';

startTime=-1;

endTime=-1;

}

int makeTime(int hr,int min){return hr*60+min;}

};

class Cschd

{

public:

Ccc cc[10];//I sure hope nobody has more than 9 classes in a day

int makeClass(char *name,int start_hr,int start_min,int end_hr,int end_min)

{

int num=0;//the array for which class of the day (0~9)

while (cc[num].name[0]='\0'){num++;}

int len=0;

while (name[len]!='\0'){cc[num].name=name[num];}//cc[num].name=name;

cc[num].startTime=cc[num].makeTime(start_hr,start_min);

cc[num].startTime=cc[num].makeTime(end_hr,end_min);

return num;//returns the id of the class instance

}

};

#define SATURDAY 0

#define MONDAY 1

#define TUESDAY 2

#define WEDNESDAY 3

#define THURSDAY 4

#define FRIDAY 5

#define SUNDAY 6

Cschd schd[7];//the schedule for every day

schd[MONDAY].makeClass("MA241",8,15,9,15);

//etc...

OpenGL and GLUT on Mac

I have been having a bunch of problems with GLUT and OpenGL on mac, but I finally got it!



Before I continue, go into terminal and type in:
"man make"
"man g++"
"man manuals are not found you NEED to upgrade Xcode! (I have no idea how you got MacPorts to work if you have not done this already)
Xcode is about 2.5gB, so it will take a while. But the upgrade is really nice (at least in my opinion). But it is needed for MacPorts.

Next, I will go over all the wrong steps.
MacPorts is a really nice tool, but you will NOT need it to install OpenGL and GLUT. It uses the "port" command from Terminal. Such as: "sudo port install cmake", which installs cmake. I tried installing glut though MacPorts, but it did not help. So I tried installing it manually from a zip file. Which include files are located (from what I currently know of) in two spots on the computer: "/opt/local/include/" and "/usr/local/include". I dragged and dropped some files in there (as well as some "Allegro" files, which is another library. I will be going over "Allegro" for a little bit in here since it also messed me up. I copied .../Allegro5/* into the include folders, but I really needed to copy .../* of the zip into the folder (leaving the Allegro5 folder intact though the copy). This left conflicting packages (ie. Memory.h!). Allegro needed to install something in "/Allegro5/platform/". (try to compile with #include , and it will point out the file). It has a cmake file in that folder, which I believe comments/uncomments out the installed setting or something like that. I tried to install cmake, but it got hung up while installing/compiling. Reading the log file, it died trying to #include . I fixed that by formatting the folder how it was supposed to be. And more useless stuff.

So what should you do?
NOTHING! Thats right, nothing! It is ALREADY INSTALLED ON MACS!!! Lucky you!
But to use it the right way you need to:

Use the right includes:
#include <OpenGL/OpenGL.h>
#include <OpenGL/gl.h>
#include <OpenGL/glu.h>
#include <GLUT/glut.h>

Terminal users:

g++ main.cpp -o main -framework GLUT -framework OpenGL
gcc main.c -o main -framework GLUT -framework OpenGL
make is the same way

Xcode users:

Right click project in the "Groups & Files" bar (left side)
Add
Existing Frameworks...
Select Glut and OpenGl
You should see them added with your project

My conflicting dpkg install of g++

This guide to how to do install a 3rd party app from your computer via terminal. Unix only, Windows terminal (Command Prompt) does not have these fancy commands.

Copy everything below and paste it into the terminal. It will auto run when you paste it.

How to extract it & copy it over: (please change the stuff in red)

cd ~/Documents/folder/to/app/
cp Geo.ipa Geo.zip || exit
unzip Geo.zip
cd Payload
rm Geo.zip
scp -r Geo.app root@192.168.1.999:/Applications||rm -rf "Payload" &&exit
rm -rf Payload
ssh root@192.168.1.999 || exit && exit
cd /Applications
cd Geo.app/ || echo "ERROR D" && exit
chmod +x Geo
echo "done!"
exit
exit
<- end highlight right here, then copy

It will prompt for the password two times.

And there we go! Go to the home screen and it should be there. If it isn't look though all your pages. Tf it still is not there, open up an app, use the app for about a minute and close it. If it still isn't there, restart you iPhone.

300: Revised Abstract

Laurens Requirement

My research examined the application and benefits of using Solar Power vs. Wind Power as alternative energy. I found that we need to reform our ways of obtaining energy from the carbon emitting producers and replace the process with clean, renewable, options. Without these new options we would soon face the doom of filling our atmosphere with concentrated carbon dioxide. The problem is in finding which option is best in a given situation. My method in analyzing the problem was to explore individual requirement in each case, understanding what it needs, what can be done, when it can be used, etc. By learning which option is best to use, we may develop a more efficient result and a cleaner environment. Unfortunately, there is no clean cut answer to each problem as there are variables to consider, such as reliant climate, sun and wind, environmental protection, and costs. For example, wind generated energy requires a lot of wind. Solar generated energy requires a lot of sun. Placing these options in regions not suited to the particular environment does not make environmental sense.

Some possibilities are being explored now with varying results. Solar generated street signs have been proven too unreliable due to the cost of each solar panel and the unreliability of weather patterns. According to “Solar Powered Signals: Myth or Marvel?” by Coetzee, theft of solar panels was one of the biggest cons for using solar generated street lights. However, there are some good possibilities, such as a US and China solar project to develop the biggest solar farm set for completion in 2019 in the Mongolian Desert with a total of 11,950 megawatts of power. The same US company is also developing three more solar farms, one the Mohave Desert totaling up to be 1,100 megawatts of power.

Revised Abstract: The Future of Renewable Power

My research examined the application and benefits of using Solar Power vs. Wind Power as alternative energy. I found that we need to reform our ways of obtaining energy from the carbon emitting producers and replace the process with clean, renewable, options. Without these new options we would soon face the doom of filling our atmosphere with concentrated carbon dioxide. The problem is in finding which option is best in a given situation. My method in analyzing the problem was to explore individual requirement in each case, understanding what it needs, what can be done, when it can be used, and so on. By learning which option is best to use, we may develop a more efficient result and a cleaner environment. Unfortunately, there is no clean cut answer to each problem as there are variables to consider, such as reliant climate, sun and wind, environmental protection, and costs. For example, wind generated energy requires a lot of wind. Solar generated energy requires a lot of sun. Placing these options in regions not suited to the particular environment does not make environmental sense.

Some possibilities are being explored now with varying results, wind generated power used in residential zones has been unacceptable due to audible noise caused by the spinning turbine generators. Solar generated street signs have been proven too unreliable due to the cost of each solar panel and the unreliability of weather patterns. According to “Solar Powered Signals: Myth or Marvel?” by Coetzee¹, theft of solar panels was one of the biggest cons for using solar generated street lights. However, there are some good possibilities, such as a US and China solar project to develop the biggest solar farm set for completion in 2019 in the Mongolian desert of China². This project will supply power to three million Chinese homes when fully completed with a total of 11,950 megawatts of power. The same us company is also developing three more solar farms, one the Mohave Desert, California totaling up to be 1,100 megawatts of power³.

As these solar and wind options become cheaper and more available, we can count on seeing them competing with other non-renewable options in the future to help relieve our demand for energy.

Abstract+

THIS IS OLD, A REVISED ESSAY CAN BE SEEN ABOVE!

The whole reason for my paper was to examine the results and uses of Solar Power vs. Wind Power energy solutions for alternative energy solutions. The paper also illustrates that we need to reform our process of obtaining energy from our carbon emitting plants to clean and renewable options, without these new options we would soon face the doom of overpopulating carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. The problem is finding which options are best in the given situations. My Approach to solving that problem was stating the requirements for each what it needs, what has to be done, when to use it, and so on. By learning which options are best to use, we may develop a more efficient environment. Unfortunately, there is no clear cut answer to this question as each need very reliant climate and weather to be able to produce energy. Wind generated energy needs a lot of wind, Solar generated energy needs a lot of sun. Placing them in regions that do not suit the environment does not economical sense. Unfortunately wind generated power cannot be produced in residential zones due to its audible noise from the generators turbine spinning to produce power.
Further through the paper I discuss the possibilities of using solar power. Unfortunately solar generated street signs is too unrealistic with the cost of each solar panel and the reliability of the different weather patterns. Theft of solar panels was one of the biggest cons from using solar panels to generate electricity for street lights and street signs. Although that idea does not work, using solar panels to cool medicine such as vaccines is a viable option for developing countries such as Africa where electricity grids are not always readily available in the area treatments need to be performed in.

"Solar Energy is also being looked into providing energy for developing regions where energy grids are hard to come by or economically or physically unfeasible."
