I keep getting mail form the Association for Computing Machinery urging me to join up and get access to all these wonderful resources.
At something like $84 (USD) a year and with the dollar/pound exchange rate it isn't a lot of money, but is it worth it?
Any opinions?

Hello
I am following "The Art and Science of Java" book and it shows how to calculate a leap year.
The book uses ACM Java Task Force's library.
Here is the code the books uses:
import acm.program.*;
public class LeapYear extends ConsoleProgram {
public void run()
{
println("This program calculates leap year.");

Hi, All,
Do you know any online problem sets or contests that accept solutions in Haskell? I know only El Judge, but unfortunately it has some problems with ghc, so any Haskell problem is rejected with "memory limit" resolution.

Is it possible to make use of the Microsoft acmStreamConvert() method and associated ACM functionality without the machine in question having a sound device?
I wish to do conversion/compression of various audio types in my application on a machine that may not have a sound card.
Thanks.

I joined the ACM last year. The Communications magazine is a huge plus, but they have so many other things available, I feel like I'm very much missing something I should be reading. The number of journals alone I can pick from is overwhelming. (And hard to parse through if you don't already know what you're looking for!)
Suggestions...
I am a software developer in France and I've realized that I am more interested in research and advanced topics more than just programming. So I decided to go back to the university next year for graduate studies and I would like to join ACM, IEEE and IEEE computer society to start preparing from now.
However I still have some questions...
I see that phpBB uses the term often to describe things like XCache, ACP, eAccelerator: http://wiki.phpbb.com/display/DEV/Cache, but what does ACM actually stand for?
I understand that all of these are PHP caching mechanisms and I use XCache myself, but I could not find what "ACM" actually translates to.

Hi guys. I'm trying to use the ACM library, my source code looks like this. On running it the Applet is started, but the output is still in the console within Eclipse. It is supposed the app to be started in a standalone window, not in the console. What I'm doing wrong?
import acm.graphics.*;
import acm.program.*;
import acm.util.*;

Hi there! I'm trying to write a java application in Eclipse.
I'm really wanting to use the ACM.Program package, however, my copy of Eclipse doesn't have it installed!
I've looked all over the net, and I can't find a single download for the ACM package.
More info:
Whenever I try the code:
package helloGeiodo;
import acm.program.*;

Hi!
I'd like to know which one is more suitable for programming contests, online judges.
I don't want answers like "go with java" or "c++ is the fastest". I'd like to know that in more details, lets say like "95% of the time you wont need to write in c++, java solution will get accepted too" or "java has BigInteger object and c++ doesn...
