|
Do you prefer a terse syntax or a more verbose one? Or something more in between? Is it possible for a language to be too terse? Where the term write only language becomes true (see APL or K. code: (!R)@&{&/x!/:2_!x}'!R taken from wiki). Is... |

Metaprogramming and Number Paramerterized Types

So this is just me wanting to talk about my experiences relating to the thread title. Feel free to share yours. In my opinion one of the reasons C++ still exists is because it has been extended using templates to useful directions beyond what th... |

IamANumber

In Haskell you can constrain the types that a polymorphic function can take. For example limiting a type to anything that derives from the number type class:
ZipListsAndSum :: (Num a) => [a] -> [a] -> a.
I was looking and it seems the... |

Hey folks. I am currently looking to take advantage of the stream processing nature of the graphics card to do some general number twisting.

[XNA] Crossplatfromability of XNA

I assume that the XNA Framework implementation is strongly depenendent on Microsoft platforms and since it is a managed directx superset it is implied that it is not an open standard.
As such, an XNA Framework port to mono would have to inwar... |

Object recognition - Where do I begin?
|
This sounds like a hard problem that might be better placed with deep learners. What are you going to do next with the classification into curvy or not? A Restricted Boltzman machine or likely even a Deep Belief Net might be what you need. |

I think I get what you're saying, but I'm still caught up on how that would relate to a game of Poker. You _could_ play Poker that way, but probably wouldn't. It's the same kind of i... |

Why not learning AI?

I agree that ML is not currently a good fit for games but for completely different reasons than Kevin.
The only of his reasons I agree with is the part about lack of creative control. This inability is definitely a hindrance but for some game... |

What do you think of being able to value anything from a central wiki-like system?

Awesome. So it sounds like it places the patterns in an n-dimensional real space and tries to either auto generate clusters or find close neighbors cant tell which based on description (maybe neighbors based on wiki requirement). And your a... |

Why is C++ so inefficient and slow to work with?

Programmers can code anything and solve almost any problem, that's not even the question.
