EDIT: Oh, please note that due to the way C++ works, there are several automatic conversions to integer within that function, of course.


Automatic conversions to integer? I don't remember that from my C++ programming classes in high school. Must have missed that while I was busy writing papers for my PSEOP college English class while the C++ teacher wasn't looking. Can you tell me when integral conversions would occur? Would it just round decimals to the nearest integer? I can come up with an accurate idea of whether that system is working as intended or giving an absurdly big bonus to unskilled players.

Hey Buzzsaw why not help out with the SMP as you pick up on mathematical things the rest of us generally ignore Smile


Where do I sign up? What does SMP stand for? My C++ skills are antiquated but they -do- exist, and while my skills are antiquated and rudimentary, my understanding of a computer's 'thought pattern' is not, I'm pretty good at understanding code if I've got a source book handy.

As for the maths, I'm good with the maths. I also enjoy the maths. The source code is not just something you dump something on, it's a series of tubes, and if the maths get clogged, the series of .... nevermind. I'm trying to be witty about something that sourced from some severe idiocy.

That's what I get for cruising around on The Internets. It rots your brain, what you find on The Google.

Anyway, I think that with JA2 in general, basic C++, and my absurdly dorky love of MATH, I'd really enjoy helping with any stuff. Even if it's just updating things in various databases that let more skilled coders focus on codey stuff that a layman couldn't handle.

So, where's the enlistment office?
