First babysteps in C…
This is definitely a different beast than Python! (it does at least help that I know the basics from python)
mistakes will be plentiful, but as the program says, I should care 0% :sweat_smile:

So far as I can see - you have avoided divide by zero :grin: C is quite good at allowing you to build it up from pseudo-code - step by step. But watch those pointers!

Still looking for a good resource to learn C by doing actual small projects that grow in complexity as you advance through the course…

Well - that is the way they show you in Kernighan & Ritchie, but the projects aren’t all that big! You come out of it knowing a fair bit of how to build up a program, though. Most of the time the individual parts are a lot simpler than you expect - if you define what you’re trying to do well enough!

A lot fo the stuff I used is probably not in print anymore - the ‘market’ has moved to C++ and Python for the most part - but the old ways still work just fine on gcc… It wouldn’t surprise me if some of the earlier books ended up online these days…?

Oh yes, even the newer stuff…
I know it’s a bit in the gray area, but I always buy the paper version for when I’m at home, and do a quick google search for the pdf version of the same book to use when I’m commuting to work.

I guess the shade of gray depends on your location - but I do similar even with entertainment titles… buy the paper version, and ‘locate’ the epub or pdf. The author gets paid, I get a backup -so everyone should be happy, right? :grin:

you are running epic games from your linux desktop? i never tried that

Who needs window borders anyways? :slight_smile:

BSPWM

I switched to a tiling window manager, because a new year, so I wanted to make the switch. Before I fully switched, I already tried some different one in virtualbox. I tried Awesome, i3, bspwm, openbox.

But I found bspwm has the most logical configs. I like that the autostart file & the keybidings file shkxd and the bspwm config file are different files, unlike i3 where everything is in one file.

I think skhxd file is really really easy to configure.
