User talk:Spoon!

Welcome

Welcome to Rosetta Code. And thanks for your contributions. I can count on one hand the number of RC members who've contributed so much in such a short period. I founded RC and maintain the software and (more or less) organization side of things. If you have any suggestions or ideas, feel free to speak up on the Village Pump or in the talk pages, or stop by IRC and discuss them. --Short Circuit 19:34, 3 February 2008 (MST)

Sequence instead of sequance

Hi, How do I correct the spelling on this page (and its Talk page too). Thanks, --Paddy3118 13:53, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

Words Of Equal Characters

Your Java solution misses out the anagrams of caret for some reason? --Paddy3118 04:24, 27 September 2008 (UTC)

Oops I missed copying one line of the output. --Spoon! 05:39, 27 September 2008 (UTC)

Ta! --Paddy3118 07:50, 27 September 2008 (UTC)

About Obj-C / GC on Rational arith

Yes I knew that, but since it started swapping heavily, I had added some code that in my mind should have forced the GC pool to release memory sooner... anyway it continues to behave the same way (with or without the added wreck-code), at least on my 256Mbyte memory system. I wonder if it also depends on the way I've implemented the class, and if there's a better way that uses less memory. --ShinTakezou 16:07, 15 February 2009 (UTC)

True/False Values

I took my time to complete my Python edit, not knowing you had in the meantime added your own. Will you merge, or should I? --Paddy3118 19:14, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

Oh yeah you should merge it as you see fit. --Spoon! 19:27, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

Symmetric Difference

erp...I didn't see your changes before I went and repasted a corrected version of my code. Sorry about that. --Michael Mol 04:50, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

that's fine. i'll make the changes again. --Spoon! 05:26, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

Dynamic programming

It was your submission of a dynamic solution to the 0-1 knapsack problem that set me on the path to learning some more about DP, and ultimately submitting this after many hours of toil. Its your fault! (and thank you :-)

Address of a variable

Hi Spoon! I made a couple little fixes. The default int isn't big enough to hold the address, but that might not be obvious without the hex formatting. Also, getting the address is only half of the task. I tried setting the address and couldn't figure it out.  :( I guess I need to learn more first. —Sonia 11:22, 19 January 2011 (UTC)

Odd word problem and C++(11)

I am kind of newbie for C++11 (and for C++ after all too), but your changes at Odd word problem#C++, are they correct? Is it still working? As I would expect, gcc gives error about the shadowing of prev. Then, let us suppose we fix that... but where's the recursion? That code does not work anymore... at least, with gcc 4.5... there's some C++11 special feature gcc-4.5 does not implement correctly that would make that code work?

Moreover, I've used capture by reference, it seemed to me usable in this circumstance, without problems. Is there any reason not to use it? ShinTakezou 22:53, 5 May 2012 (UTC)
