I'd much rather be the pigeon that craps on the statue

Evolve and build apon your knowledge and never give up!

Well learning the language is not what's really important, learning programming concepts is what's important. You can look up the syntax of a language, ideas take a while to learn and understand. I would say the same to you grim, you can write code that works, but you really don't know much about good programming practices.

I still dont understand what every one means by "good practice"

ill be the judge of that. tell a joke.

I most likely won't be on SNL, but I have always wanted to be on it. It's usually not very funny when you type out a joke and all you see is text on the internet. But people at my school find me to be funny, meaning they probably would not laugh at the things I say if it were typed and they read it on a screen. Am I making sense?

Code that is future-proof.. easily extend-able.. and if passed on to another; easily and quickly understood. That means good naming conventions.. a practical, working, thought-out structure that can support all possible scenarios (related..).. and making full use of your knowledge of built-in methods and members.. Good-practices do not necessarily mean fastest, but they do mean longevity.

Future Goal: Master the computer.

i've been trying to make one, if not two, halo 2 apps. i was using grimdoomer's tutorial, but it is unfinished

and according to my friend The500Sun, the Tag Members and Header should be stored as "Integers" rather than "Longs"? they are 32bit numbers, correct?

Post by **Grimdoomer** » Wed Feb 06, 2008 2:47 am

I still dident change the longs? dam, well yes they are suppost to be int's. Ive been so tied up with Gravemind, Ill try to finish it when I get the beta out.....

I would recommend not using his tutorials. I would recommend learning enough about programming to understand how to read BinaryData, and then learning enough about Halo Map Files to know which data to read and store.
