New "Game"!
It has been a time since a decent solo submission so I have been working on this password thing. It just tells you some useful hints and tips on how to improve your passwords and it will have a mini game where you have to make a password that won't be hacked easily. Should be out sometime next month.
Tell me what you think.

I wonder when the day will come that we get multi-threading in flash.


#include <stdio.h>

char*p="#include <stdio.h>%cchar*p=%c%s%c;%cmain() {printf(p,10,34,p,34,10);}";

main() {printf(p,10,34,p,34,10);}

Tell me what you think.

You need a more exiting game concept, there isn't really much behind creating a strong password. The graphics are looking quite good though, hopefully someone will find it helpful or enjoyable.

That is all I am looking for, if you just find one thing new and helpful then I have succeeded. It is not there to be fun or 'new'. But atm there is no submissions like it, it may prove useful to some.
Thanks for the feedback.

We didn't actually make the game, we just designed the concept and how it would work, that screenshot is all there is of it. I would quite like to make it one day, if I can be bothered.

We could only choose modules in the final year and even then it was only a choice between digital culture (which I did Meth 2.0 for) or 3D Animation. I suck at Maya so digital culture it was.

As for work, I'm currently unemployed, although I've only be looking a couple of weeks. I've got an interview week after next with Public, which looks promising.

Also it's meet up time again.

Good luck for that, you will have to tell me how it goes, they have a great portfolio of work and seem like a good professional company to work with.

Also it's meet up time again.

I am in doubt if to go, will have to research travel arrangements and costs. But I would love to go again.

Anyone know why Flash thinks the following is correct?

12346 * .1 = 1234.6000000000001

Similar problems are causing my rounding functions to give me similar results for certain numbers.

It's just a rounding error, and it's something that you're never going to get away with in any kind of programming. You can try casting your numbers as integers if it's a constant problem.

The bytes are too small, man! It's all about the bytes! Gotta make them bigger, to make the rounding errors smaller. It's an active subject in geometric algorithms or something at the moment.

decimal numbers are stored similar to binary numbers, they're still sums of powers of 2, just negative powers of 2 (2^-1 = 1/2, 2^-2 = 1/4, etc) [floating numbers have an exponent too, not important for now]

hence, .1 would be stored as a sum of powers of 2

1/16 + 1/32 + 1/256 + 1/512 + 1/4096 + 1/8192 + 1/65536 + 1/131072 = 0.09999847412109375

in binary:
.0001100110011001100110011...

you aren't gonna get to .1 with this sequence with a finite number of bits (just like how 1/3 is .33333... in base-10)

The default is 24FPS but it is sometimes hard to work with, yes it is the native frame rate for PAL but 25 means 2 seconds is 50 frames and not 48, with big numbers it is easier working with 25's than 24's don't you agree?

I quite like 30. It's smooth without looking artificial and I'm used to coding stuff in it :)
