1. 300 Statements Furore, Diskmag, 3D, Computing, Religion, etc.
It's not that hard to get up to 300 statements. I though "300! Blimey!
I'll never do that much", but I got up to it quite quickly with my
robotic-arm controlling project. It works now (just in time for the
deadline), by the way (thanks for a couple of replies to my inquiry a
while ago).
Personally, I can cope with using trace(1) and as I'm not spending the
money on Eu Full version am not complaining. I might stop being a stingy
git (for once in my life) in a while and register it, though.
As for the diskmag, am I doing something that nobody wants here, or do
you just all need prodding to write stuff? I seem to remember Pete
saying he'd write something a while ago (maybe that was in a private
mail, though). Come on everybody!
BTW, is anybody doing a 3D engine? Using the excellent ModeX lib?
I can do one with flat shaded polygons at about one frame every year,
but not much else. Gouraud-shading? Textured? EuQuake?!!
Oh, and would it be a good idea for me to write 'Visual Win32lib' for my
A-Level Computing project? It might have to be in (excuse my swearing)
VB, though, as EuW32 looks a tad complicated to write in (without
'Visual Win32lib', of course!)
Panic! Exams in a few days!

And just in case anybody cares:
I am an atheist
I am English
I like ham and pineapple pizza
I can speak and understand French and Italian, and can understand Latin.
If anybody wants to know any more about me then I suggest you e-mail me.
In the meantime: talk about Euphoria not about religion, pizzas
languages or any such irrelevant rubbish. This has been a public service
announcement. Signal to noise ratio and all that. Thankyou.

Same here. I just need money. Money doesn't come too often for me...

Is there any specific articles you would like? I might be able to help on
some subjects. (Perhaps some arcade game AI theory...?)

Yeah, what 3d advancements have been made? Anybody up to porting Descent
(the source code has been released... Check it out at www.descent2.com)
to Euphoria? I might be able to take a shot at it in a couple weeks.
(BTW, the porter(s) will only be regarded as heros by other Euphoria
programmers, and won't be able to make money off it. It's the condition
you accept by using the source code. (But I'm sure there will be plenty
of $1.00 donations each month.. ;) )

I don't really mind. Anything at all, as long as it's interesting or
useful (preferably both!)
