The point in contest is 'Do I need to know math to program'. So I guess the answer is no. Unless you need to do anything even slightly usefull. But even then you can copy and paste without knowing what you are doing :) Comparing not knowing physics and brewing a cuppa is a bit far fetched -...

aaaaah! GOTO BAD BAD BAD!!! I started with Basic way back on the c64 (POKE 32680,1 baby!) and dabbled in machine code a few years later (basically ASM with numbers instead of text). Then moved on to AMOS on the amiga, from where I went to Univerity and had my first run in with C, and then OO...

Have you even downloaded it? The source is in there!

The blu+ version works great. Awesome job. Is the slight pause when a bullet is fired/enemy is hit (can't tell quite when) normal? I guess it is related to sound?

Well, run a competition for submissions while offereing nothing in return and you are bound to get lots of hits :D

If enough want is as the mascot, I'll do that :) I don't want to put anything out there before a decision is made, just in case. A wallpaper can be done no probs.

Not really true. As soon as you use a single variable, you are already using algebra. Assigning a value to an arbitrary label is part of algebra, i.e: a = 5; so you can't really get away from it. You are right though, the rest is structures and language constructs like conditional...

hehe :P funny thing is, Jengo - what did you THINK it was going to be like? Writing a story?

Me too. The cross is too much.

Here is an updated mascot with GP-like D-Pad also (and one without).

Funny, I was just coming here to post this myself. I agree that the site should perhaps be renamed to GPX, though bugger that gpx.com is taken :(. Anyway, I have devised a MASCOT obviously based on the linux/open source theme (by being a penguin and all) but hopefully different enough to be of...

And I knew there was a reason I always use malloc :)

but - myStruct *struct; function addStruct( myStruct *struct ){ myStruct aStruct; // ... // Do stuff to struct // ... struct = &aStruct; } addStruct( struct ); // Does 'struct' now still exist? :)

Thanks guys. Not sure if I can use basic_string in this environment, but I'll see. The weird thing is that wchar_t is already defined...

Well, I'm attempting a port that absolutely needs unicode support, so no getting around it. All the functions are there and already written, but the compiler does not undertand 'wstring' so I need to typedef it myself (apparently it was removed from newer versions of GCC?). The problem is I...

This is true :). No-one posted (well, a few did, which was fun) but there have been many hits so some are at least looking at them (3700+) http://www.gp32.co.nz/snippet.php

Hi, Just a tip with libpng - it was crashing on me alot too (not with SDL, but with standalone version) which turned out to be the use of 'setjmp' and 'longjmp' for some freaky 'goto' style error handling (BAD BAD BAD BAD!). So I altered the source for libpng (I have a cut down load-only...

ok, I now have the definition of a wstring: A wstring is a string where the elements are wchar_t instead of char. Does this mean that I can conclude: typedef wchar_t* wstring; (so wchar_t* == wstring) ??
