music

A bunch of really hot artists have been active lately, fun to watch. Drake's im so proud of you struck a chord, or a cord. either way it worked

last 1 for now

I am about done with joe and fred, here is the last one for a while before more work. yippee aye kiyay

more objects

So while rewriting this in c and haskell is still a work in progress, here are a few more examples

gender = $gender;
        $this->height = $height;
        $this->weight = $weight;
    }
    
    public function talks() {
        echo "Hello World!!\n";
    }
    
    public function walks($steps, $direction) {
        echo "I walked ".$steps." steps in ".$direction."\n";
    }
}

class MailMan extends Person {
    public $bagWeight;
    public $routeLen;
    
    public function _construct($gender, $height, $weight, $bagWeight, $routeLen) {
        parent::_construct($gender, $height, $weight);
        $this->bagWeight = $bagWeight;
        $this->routeLen = $routeLen;
    }
    
    public function delivery_time() {
        return $this->bagWeight * $this->routeLen;
    }
    
    public function mailboxes_seen() {
        echo "I saw ".$this->routeLen." mailboxes today!\n";
    }
}

$fred = new Person("male", 6.0, 175);
$fred->talks();
$fred->walks(5, "west");

$joe = new MailMan("male", 5.5, 140, 5, 10);
$joe->talks();
echo "Joe's estimated delivery time is ".$joe->delivery_time()."\n";
$joe->mailboxes_seen();
$joe->walks(9, "right");

a ruby person

here is another example and then I am done procrastinating and back to work. this re-implements the person classes in ruby rather than python if python is not your thing

#!/usr/bin/env ruby
class Person
    def initialize(gender, height, weight)
        @gender = gender
        @height = height
        @weight = weight
    end

    def talks
        "Hello World!!"
    end

    def walks(steps, direction)
        "I walked #{steps} to the #{direction}"
    end
end

class MailMan < Person
    def initialize(gender, height, weight, bagWeight, routeLen)
        super(gender, height, weight)
        @bagWeight = bagWeight
        @routeLen = routeLen
    end

    def delivery_time
        @bagWeight * @routeLen
    end

    def mailboxes_seen
        "I stopped at #{@routeLen} mailboxes"
    end
end

fred = Person.new("male", 6, 175)
puts fred.talks
puts fred.walks(5, "north")

joe = MailMan.new("male", 5.75, 140, 10, 5)
puts "Joe's estimated delivery time is #{joe.delivery_time}"
puts joe.walks(10, "right")
puts joe.talks
puts joe.mailboxes_seen
 

the most important part of programming really is just playing around and seeing if you can actually do what you want, usually you can, or you can teach yourself how after many hours of trying

A quick view of objects

Here is a quick intro to object oriented programming, the great new buzzword in modern programming. Its really quite simple, I will try to put this out in as many languages as I can, but here it is in python. The long short is that anything you can describe can be an object, for our example we're going to use people, fred and joe. Fred is a poor simple soul, nothing too special, joe however is a mailman. now a mailman should have all of the characteristics of a person, but he will need some extra stuff. However, it would be a waste of time to completely redefine everything they share as people just to create a mailman. so we make a object based off an object and voila. in the technical speak, we have classes and subclasses. pythons explicitness helps this a bit i think. without further ado, the code, enjoy

#!/usr/bin/env python
# coding: utf-8

#person, our first object
class Person(object):

#person traits
    gender = None
    height = None
    weight = None

#define our person object
    def __init__(self, gender=None, height=None, weight=None):
        self.gender = gender
        self.height = height
        self.weight = weight

#identify some actions
    def talks(self):
        print('Hello World')

    def walks(self, steps, direction):
        print('I walked %d steps to the %s' % (steps, direction))

#notice not an object, a Person
class MailMan(Person):
    routeLen = None
    bagWeight = None

#re inited with extra arguments **kwargs is shorthand for all of the person args
    def __init__(self, bagWeight, routeLen, **kwargs):
        self.bagWeight = bagWeight
        self.routeLen = routeLen
# super makes sure we know we are a sub class
        super(MailMan, self).__init__(**kwargs)

#new mailman specific actions
    def delivery_time(self):
        return self.routeLen * self.bagWeight
    
    def mailboxes_seen(self):
        print('I stopped at %d mailboxes' % self.routeLen)

if __name__ == '__main__':
#poor plain fred
    fred = Person(gender='male', height=6, weight=175)
    fred.talks()
    fred.walks(5, 'north')
#joe the mailman is just so much cooler
    joe = MailMan(10, 5, gender='male', height=5.75, weight=140)
    print('Joe\'s estimated delivery time is %d' % joe.delivery_time())
    joe.walks(5, 'right')
    joe.talks()
    joe.mailboxes_seen()

  

There you have your quick intro to objects, not so bad was it

life and stuff

So yea, i ride bikes and stuff, but the latest pressure has been coding on a coference call, next trick, live on stage at a conference. that and there are job listing that give me faith there is still home in the coding world thats it too much work and not enough play, coming soon a lesson on objects
