I'm having a post it note moment. Post it note: Start using a Linux OS if you want to learn more about how software works in a computer.

Here, I'll teach you how software works:

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int work()
{
    //Work goes here
}

int main()
{
    #ifdef _WIN32
        cout << "Unhandled exception has occurred.";
        return 1;
    #else
        work();
    #endif
}

:teehee:

The first thing I need to know is how to put that in the computer? Do I write it on Notepad and then click something to get it to do something?

Damn, allergies hit hard yesterday. :sad:
Stupid grass...

Funny enough, I don't have any allergies at all despite the fact that both my parents are allergic to pollen, especially that of cypress.

That particular code is a joke but I guess you didn't get it. It's hard to joke with the stuff. :sad:

 

The code itself is fully functional, a compiled binary would detect if the OS it's ran on is Windows and if so, print an error message and exit with code 1 (exit code 1 stands for error). If ran on a different OS it would work, albeit it's work() variable doesn't have any commands, only a comment. It's a joke revolving around Windows' crash-prone behavior.

 

If you're serious about learning how programs work, I'd recommend looking at C++ tutorial here, a lot of programs are written in either C, C++ or C# and all three are similar to each other. The tutorial has a rather steep learning curve for beginners though, but it's not as hard as it looks once you get a hang of the basics.

I should probably fix the refrigerator so I can put the post it notes on it instead of playing around with the idea further here. :laugh:

I reinstalled Oblivion today - been chopping up some Yellow Team Combatants in the glorious Arena. Is it surprising that the first thing I did was make a custom ENB? I can't help it - I'm obsessed with tweaking graphics! :facepalm:

 

Morroblivion v065 is supposed to be released soon - that's the main reason why I got Oblivion up and running today. :yes:

 

 

 

EDIT: I downloaded v064 because the next version will allow you to upgrade instead of downloading the whole thing again, so yay.

 

 

EDIT 2: Thor keeps sending me weird things on Steam. I was tempted to use the "Block All Communications" option but I think that's a bit harsh.

Answer a question with the appropriate answer to the question and you will go far as a teacher.

 

Now that I can see that it is a computer code, after, I followed up a link to see it on another web page, with step by step instructions on how to install it; I can see it is a joke.

 

FYI : Click Start, type CMD, in the command window, type cls, and then type sfc /scannow. That should help clear your computer problem with getting some code to work in Windows that is written more specifically for some simple computation calculator. By doing the scan now trick it could clear up the problem you had getting the C++ to work in Windows Or Not! :laugh:

 

You're obviously not cut out as a comedian.

 

Just as Thor wasn't a very good salesman in respect to what I was interested in.

 

I was kind of hoping that Ra didn't come up until 9:00 AM so I could sleep in. :laugh:

I'm surprised you didn't know, it was fairly obvious by now.

You know, I'm actually considering that. Unless I get out of the country, being a professor is about the only thing I can do. At least those guys are well paid for their work. :smile:

People at work call me Big Willy. It started off with one person saying it, and now they all say it. :mellow:

 

I don't mind, but yeah, it's weird.

 

 

 

EDIT: Ahahahahaha. There is a new Assassin's Creed game that was announced today: AC Chronicles - a sidescroller this time based in China, India and Russia (there are 3 parts).

 

"Let's continue to whip this horse for every last bit of profit," says Ubisoft.

"Um, pretty sure the horse is almost dead," replies a co-worker.

"Yeah, but money!" Ubisoft declares, a long line of drool hanging from the side of its lip.

So, after riding along in the advertising fables, fame, and fortune with jobs aplenty listing in the back, along the course of your life you've found what to be really important?
