hey here is porbably a dumb idea: lets start adding one line of code at a time in each reply and the code like builds on itself. so like after 500000 posts it would liek totaly an OS or some kool game!

lolz i'll start

(Toggle Plain Text)

#include <iostream>

were gonna use C++ cause thats all i really know except for BASIC. but seriously try it out and see if we can make some thing. it is like those stories you write for five minuets then pass the paper on to the next guy and he contnuies for five min and so on untill ya stop and then every one gets to gethere and reads the story. we did that in the seventh grade a lot in english. i sux at english...

You must be shitting me. A half-million mismatched nuts and bolts does not make a space station.

ok maybe not an os or any thing overly complex. but would itnt be leik "fun/challenge" as a group to write some code one line at a time one person at a time that would some how manage to compile into a working program that did some thing of significances?

im really tiered and havent taken my medication in quite some time....

using namespace std;

Hmm?

Fine for a page of code. Trouble in River City for a half-million lines. Now let me make something clear. I'm not against games, humor, and fun (see some of my posts). However, I'd like to see PFO viewed as a technical forum that can be taken seriously in those (technical) areas. Lately it seems to be headed in the direction of a kindergarten of asinine inanities. Go with your communal code, but it would be good if it didn't encourage poor programming practices.

would you suggest two lines at a time insted of one?

goining in a linear fassion putting using namespace std; cuts us off from other headers and inlcude and what not.

int main()

It was one of my ways to make a joke, a silly joke.
Sorry

The engish language is linear and the units which make it up (ie. sentences) are relatively small. As with all natural languages, it's designed such that people can use it on the fly. Little foresight is required in order to construct a basic sentence.

Programming, on the other hand, is usually not linear, and the individual units (ie. functions and classes) are often relatively large. Most programming languages are not designed to be used on the fly, least of all C++. Software development often takes months, if not years of planning ahead.

what? i dont get it. gezz now i feel stupid
delete this

What he, we or I mean is that you can't make a program like that.
You have to plan what program it will be, what includes your will use, namespaces, classes and so on.
