My issue is I am trying my first attempt at writing a very basic lexical analyzer for ascii text files. so far, it reads and compares to my token list properly, however I am unable to grab the final token without a space or pressing enter. I've tried using the delimiter ^Z ASCII 26 as another selection before comparing the string to my t...
The usual way to read a file in C++ is this one: std::ifstream file("file.txt", std::ios::binary | std::ios::ate); std::vector<char> data(file.tellg()); file.seekg(0, std::ios::beg); file.read(data.data(), data.size()); Reading a 1.6 MB file is almost instant. But recently, I discovered std::istream_iterator and wanted to try it in o...

How do you catch up with new things and technologies? I mean, I'm really interested in some technology. It has lots of great books, that I need to read to be proficient in it. Not to mention that you only know what you actually worked with, so reading does not give you much, you have to work with this technology. Moreover, there are clas...

Some quick background: This Fall, I'm heading into my second year perusing a BS in Software Engineering. I picked up programming in my first year of high school, learning languages like Basic and PHP. My senior year of high school was when I got much more serious. For the last two years, I've been reading for about two hours a day. I do...
PHP has a great downloadable reference - since there's nothing similar for HTML I'm looking for a great HTML book that describes each element one by one .. almost like a specification for HTML, but written in simple terms that an entry-level programmer could figure out and learn from. Now don't give me the W3C HTML spec since that's far...

Hey guys, I'm writing a small program to read in a csv with a variable number of lines and have a question about best practices: Is the best way to create storage for the data on each line to make an array that holds the data structures of the csv (one per each line of csv)? Size allocated to the array could be set to a large number (f...

I have the reader and know that the Sun version of Java 6 includes javax.smartcardio and I have read a bit about these APIs. Having never worked with smart cards before I wonder if there is a simple way to read bytes of date in a given secto...

We're creating a web service where we're writing files to disk. Sometimes these files will be read at the same time as they are written. If we do this - writing and reading from the same file - we sometimes end up with files that are of the same length, but where some of the data inside are not the same. So with a 350mb file we get mayb...

Hey, I'm trying to read a EAN-13 barcode from my webcam. I already wrote a class to do that work. I'm taking a picture from my webcam, trimming it to show ONLY the barcode, and reading the barcode with the code tables from wikipedia. For some reason, the barcode gets trimmed, but the output is always "0-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1". I wonder...
