Those are some impressive feats of coding you have listed.
really ? trust me it dont seem that impressive when youve been working on the same shit for the last 3 years hehe

C / C++ /C# / Re: Which version of C?
« on: September 30, 2011 »
yeh, the rewards are there if you can do it.
when i first started coding way back on the zx spectrum it was all in basic for the first two years. There was one person who stopped me learning machine code and the hardware in that time (myself).. i look back and think wasted two years hehe .
so i say. dont be shy , dive in, use other peoples source code to help you understand.
if you do you wont look back nor would you want to.
there isnt any wrong way to program something, just different ways (wrong is when it just doesnt work)
oh going off on a tangent now, will stop

C / C++ /C# / Re: Which version of C?
« on: September 28, 2011 »
dont get me wrong,
I've nothing against c# as a language, but its not C or C++ and shouldnt be compared as such.
i'm sure its a fine language and yeh as a Rapid dev tool its great
like VB was great, but i feel for serious stuffs you need complete control ( C / C++ & asm).
my nephew plays around with C# & xna but hasnt a clue on how the computer actually draws a pixel onto the screen.
these languages shield you from the down and dirty and ultimately
stunt learning.
sorry, its just my opinion and i totally support others, its a free world

C / C++ /C# / Re: Which version of C?

go and download a copy of Code::Blocks IDE. this comes with the MingW32 Compiler included.
then learn C. with C you learn lots of low level stuff
then learn C++, (if you feel you need to),
then you can forget about C# (scripting)...

Games , Gui's, cpu emulators.
I do enjoy compiler design, I am currently working on my own version of basic.
that enjoys features from C

dont use asm for hobby code anymore, no point unless its for the 64 or amiga.
most of my own stuff is for PC now and for which i see little need to bother with x86 asm

thanks everyone for making me feel welcome,
ok my background information, well..
(deep intake of breath).
I am an embedded software developer by day and an avid bedroom coder by night, I have been writting code since the days of the zx spectrum and have gone thru the c64, amiga route developing my skills in 6502, m68k asm & C..
I use Arm & coldfire micros in my day job and hate them. I love 8bits (speccy, 64, amstrad etc) . love (16's) amiga, st etc.
I have written a few emulators in my time. and have spent the last3 years at work writing a coldfire emulator for which to test our in house developed OS.
I have developed Os drivers, FAT32, USB stack.. (jeez thats enough about work)
um, born 1973, now married 2 kids. (and I still feel like its 1987) and im playing exolon on a speccy.
