Hello fellow programmers,

 

There was a thread called 'Show your setup' a while ago, but I want to create another one specific for programmers. I am interested in seeing other programmers setups.

 

So I shall go first with my setup ;)

 

What's on my screen:

What language are you coding in and what are you doing?

There are 10 types of people in this world, those who understand binary, and those who don't.

I am programming in c++. I am using visual studio 2012 as my IDE.

I am working on a very basic map editor for a 2D tile based game. I don't know what genre of game it's going to be yet :P. It is probably going to be a platformer, because I really like the genre.

 

EDIT: here is a screenshot of the map editor.

Sorry for all the questions. I'm 17 and I really want to learn more languages than just basic. I took a computer science this year (grade 11) but my grade 12 computer science class got canceled.

How long did it take you to learn c++ and is this a hobby or  a job

Well I am 17 years old too ;p

I learned the basics from following visual basic tutorials when I was like 13 years old. I programmed for half a year and basicly started doing other stuff. When I was 15 I learned about game maker and started learning that. It was a lot of fun and I made some fun games. About 3/4 year ago I found out about a game programming study. I had to program a game and give a presentation to be accepted (only like 40 people of 300 could get in, so only the best). They only use C++ because it's the industry's standard. The game you had to make could be in a programming language of your choice. Since you could get the highest rank if you used C++ I started learning that. I bought the book 'Learning c++: through game programming' by micheal dawson (the school recommended it). I started reading it and in 3 monnths I was making my first game with graphics.

Tl;dr version

I saw a game programming study. They recommended c++. Started learning it 3/4 years ago.

The code you wrote in your picture looks extremely complex, how long do you reckon it's going to take me if I know only basic as of right now. How efficient are you in it?

Well, anything that you haven't learned yet looks complex. If you use C++ for a few months most of these things should start to make sense. I am still far away from being a professional.

If you now basic, you already know a lot of all languages. All languages have a lot of the same concepts, like functions, variables, etc. I don't think it would take you very long.

Yeah, I was looking at some Java code, and there is a lot of similarities. Such as giving a variable a name and calling upon that variable. Float, Single, Double. Good thing I learned BASIC :)

This my current setup. The left window is temporary processing sketch until I work out how to do serial communication with C++ and the right is the beginnings of an arduino fan controller.

Is that a Runescape private server?

Yeah, it is

I'm the sysadmin, IT guy, network guy, UNIX admin guy, software dev guy, et all in our small family owned company that specializes in Oracle and Electronic Commerce consulting.

 

Our setup is not really impressive for photographing.  Hardware wise it is our laptops, and our Oracle Linux boxes (RHEL 6) with the databases, Ora Apps, and various services for apache https, samba, subversion.  VMs on one of the linux boxes run guest Windows for SQL Server, SSRS, etc.

 

We use a bunch of various IDEs for Oracle, Java, etc.  Most of my time is either in a unix shell or in Oracle.

 

I've just completed setting up subversion with our repository tree structure on a linux server.  Just imported the latest source code from all of our projects in the SVN repositories.  Even with just a few developers in our company, SVN is going to help ALOT with keeping track of code.

 

I can take a picture but the hardware is not really impressive.  Basically its just our laptops consisting of Macbook Pros and Dell Precisions... the RHEL boxes are simple with G2120 (upgraded recently from Pentium E5200 and Core 2 Duo), Routers, switches, a bunch of bare drives and toasters for backups, etc.

 

I do have a dream machine parts wishlist for a super server.  But it isn't really practical for our current development.  But it would be fun to have.  Someday though :)
