logging running programs Does anyone know if it's possible for a Windows application to detect what other programs are running, and (ideally) how much processor usage each of them is taking? I thought it'd be a good idea for my game to record information like this in it's...

Rolling Dice Do you need to control the number the die lands at?

(SOLVED) No. of sides of regular polygon given area and side length? Since 'N' is integer I'd have thought you can solve the problem with something along the lines of: i = 3; while (true) { if (abs(poly_area(i, side) - area) < [small number]) { return i; } i = i [plus] 1; } Obviously thi...

Need Help It looks like a custom build step is calling a program called 'vsa' with the wrong parameters, or none at all. Perhaps you've got a more recent version of this program than the project was intended for? Anyway, you should be able to find what it's...
