LOL a library is a library, a collection of non built in functions, for esoteric uses.

Correct me if I'm wrong, honestly.

A program (any language) can STILL only do a few things:

1. Input from user
2. Arrays
3. manipulation of user input (the math or the functions)
4. choices (if/then statements)
5. Loops (for iterations)
6. String manipulation
7. Output to the user.

Not necessarily in this order, ofc.

/e ..and library's of non built in functions for those that need something out of the ordinary

lol no

please name non-assembly languages which do not use libraries for the performance of (non-trivial) input/output
btw, with "any language" you refer to non-assembly languages i assume

/note not claiming that assembly languages don't use libraries, they have extensive libraries available for convenience but one can do without if one wants to

LOL SLAMT

yea, any language that is used to crunch numbers in any form, is going to have at least some library shit, somewhere, that's going to convert extremely popular shit to other extremely popular shit

hey ghot

hex doesn't convert directly to decimal either, it has to be binary first, in both ways

does that make you.. mad?

You're equivocating standard and core to mean the same thing. Done wit dat one.




Yep and that would define a CORE library. Done with dat one.

/e really funny part is this topic was done at post #6 and #7 ....all else is semantics pissing contest :/

Actually I'm not the one doing that, Wikipedia is...






So you learned to program in 1984, you stopped in 1984. Do you really think someone with 1 years experience from decades ago in a subject that changes as quickly as computer programming, should be commenting about programming now?

And FYI 2013 - 1984 = 29 years, not 19.

He was probably using roman numerals to do this equation, too hipster to use built in libraries he made his own and it didn't work.

But yea there are libraries for roman numerals to ascii, easy assignment

http://roman.sourceforge.net/

read through some more of this thread, ghot claiming the romans did it all wrong, and that they "didn't have a zero" really gave me a good chuckle, explains how a lot of our basic principles for math are "wrong" according to you. Then again you can't pull off basic subtraction so there's that.

I like all of the attention this topic got but this is no longer my problem, My new problem is finding an easy way to do boolean algebra w/o using kmaps for example this is one of the things i need to simplify using boolean algebra

D'C'B'A+D'C'BA'+D'C'BA+D'CBA'+D'CBA+DC'B'A'+DC'BA

hahahahahaha

implying that people were incapable of doing math until a more modern (by more modern --> one that we currently use) numerical representation existed.

hilarious.

Pythagoras, Euclid, Democritus; all hacks!
