that url didnt work. 404 not found

anonymous · Answer

Lots of math problems here, yo can make algorithms, and also code any way you want to solve any of the problems here: http://projecteuler.net/index.php?section=problems OCW Computer Science Courses http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/#electrical-engineering-and-computer-science

i must code in a little different environment. there are different keywords in a lot of those examples. i use a program called VIM. it's just a terminal. my school doenst allow us to use an IDE.

anonymous · Answer

U can use Visual Studio 2010 and .NET 4.0

anonymous · Answer

ya but not during school. i'd rather practice the same way i'll b goin to school. just coding in machine language. what they do is give us a word problem to figure out through coding. we can use any way we want as long as the output matches

anonymous · Answer

lol So u code i 0 and 1s? Yeah right... The most near way u get to that is using assembly language, with neumonics, registers etc....

anonymous · Answer

ok no not 1 and 0. we just use the terminal in MAC OS. it picks up keywords and stuff but i dont recognize a bunch of the syntax in those examples

anonymous · Answer

which examples?

anonymous · Answer

on the site that royal posted. like enum {false,true}. i have no clue what that means

anonymous · Answer

and sleep(1)

anonymous · Answer

that's C, which is old.... enum is  a list of numbers or any other type (user define or primitives) but it is as words for the programer to see them:

enum Weekdays = {Monday, Tuesday, thursday....} // days of the week

sleep( ) is a system function, represents the time in miliseconds

Did you check out Project Euler that fr33 suggested? That sounds like what you want. It's basically a bunch of maths problems which you solve using any program, you get points etc for solving them, try getting on the high score table!
