Os?

[~teh_pwn3rz~]

spin soem? what is that?

he has some code i can give you. he asked me to port it fro him, nearly finished

public Class UserInput
{
public static double GetUserNum(string prompt double def, double lower, double upper, bool include, bool AllowErrMsg)
{
string temp;
double test = 0;

Console
temp = Console.ReadLine();

{try

test = double.Parse(temp); //convert the string into a double
}
catch(Exception e)
{
if(AllowErMsg)
{
Console.Writ testtesttesreturn ttesttesttest;
else
{
//if the user's number is out of range
if()
Console.WriteLine("That number is outside the program's operational parameters. The range of acceptable input is: {0} - {1}.\nDefaulting to {2}.", lower.ToString(), upper.ToString(), def.ToString());

return //exit with default result
}
}
else /*the OK range is outside lower to upper
{
if((test < lower) || (test > upper)) //if user outside the EXclusion zone
retu
//if the user's number is out of range
if(AllowErrMsg)
Console.WriteLine("That number is outside the program's operational parameters. The range of illegal input is: {0} - {1}.\nDefaulting to {2}.", upper.ToString(), lower.ToString(), def.ToString());

return def; */exit with default result
}

Eh, ok. What did you port it from? Binary code?

[timeshifter]

wha? that doesn't make any sense... What's it written in? QB#++.NET?

[cid]

A good basis for building unix apps is python, if you want to work at your own OS you might as well make your own programming language to accompany it.
Start With Python
Then Goto Assembly
Then Work On File Structures

The rest is over my head, I wouldnt know how to get it to read the hardware properly, then read and write properly, search properly. Have it read on board components like ram, get the video card to read properly so you can even SEE.

Honestly your tutor sounds like an idiot. Linux shell isnt that hard, and the fact that he says all unix was programmed in QBasic is retarded. QBasic like thatoneguy said is an Intel based application...

So why does RedHat, Solaris(Sun processing), Whoppix, KnoppixSTD, SUSE, etc... run on Intel and AMD based processors?

My tuter is no idiot, he taught me to write a "Hello World' program today. He remember all the code in his head and typed itall in at one try, did not even crash first time .

[thegreatone]

What you mean... like this ??

Private Sub Form_Activate()
Me.Print "Hello World"
End Sub

Indeed he is a super-coder...

[~teh_pwn3rz~]

me.print doesn't work for me, he didnt do it like this.

he used a massagebox.show(hello world")

[grilkip]

Who's alt are you?

[~teh_pwn3rz~]

pardon?

[capsulecorpjx]

in what lenguage do you build an operation system?
does any1 knows on any really googd links to sites that got lots of info about how can i build my own os? i know it might take hard work but i really want to try any ideas links? thx

You have to realize that pretty much all languages (that are not JIT or Scripting), are compiled to binary.

You can use assembly (the lowest level language, which is basically a symbolic representation of the actual step by step CPU calculations), to make an OS if you're good enough.

But to answer your question, I would imagine mostly C and C++.

[wossname]

JIT compilers do compile to binary, just in time as it were.

whatever

When i pass this class ill know more tahn you. but now I need to begin leasrning the codes for writting things on the cosole window then i can write a cool program like grep and then seach all the file.

I think I just passed an elephant, and I know one thing.....

[dglienna]

Anyone that knows the first thing about a language can write a Hello World app.
I did it with Net the first day I tried. I used a messagebox, and was told that it was not a traditional app as it didn't write to a console window.

Its the only code i know in VB.NET

MessageBox.Show("Hello World","Hello World", System.Windows.MessageBoxButtons.Ok)

[wiz126]

was it hello world app or was it
as a 'OS' dos hell world?

[Jacob Roman]

Its the only code i know in VB.NET

MessageBox.Show("Hello World","Hello World", System.Windows.MessageBoxButtons.Ok)

That's one big reason why I hate .NET. Too much freaking typing/seaching for commands. I can do that in VB6 a whole lot faster and shorter:

MsgBox "Hello World", vbOk, "Hello World"

[timeshifter]

Even with that, the OK button is default,so you don't even need it...

[kaihirst]

THATS WAY UNFAIR!!!!!!!!

TAKE IT OFF!!!!!!!! AND I DONT MEAN YOU F**KIN CLOTHES EITHER..

NOT FUNNY....

M$ will crush you before you even started

No your tutor is verifiable genius. What primary school do you go to?

MsgBox "Hello World", vbOk, "Hello World"

We all eagerly await the beautiful and elegant solution to this problem that LF will bring.

how about a

HWMsgBox

command

Hey!! VBF needs [LightFusionCode]...[/LightFusionCode] tags

[wossname]

spot the deliberate mistake.

So you plan on implementing OOP without a hierarchical class system? That will certainly rock the programming world to the core, damn JR you must be a serious Nobel candidate

[yrwyddfa]

OOP is for idiots, girls, and noobies.

[Pino]

oop is the future, it was designed by qbasic

[yrwyddfa]

'oop' is a subset of 'oops' which says it all really

[wossname]

Oh YEAH!! Well VB is BV backwards so there.

pwnd.

[Pino]

Yea What He Said :-/
