    I hope you were young and didn't know what you were doing.

    I'd have to say though, it's pretty awesome to have not given up (10,000 lines is a lot for a beginner) and come out with a working product when you have such hideous code.

    Impossible. I'm the source of all cool, so any cool you have came from me originally and you're just borrowing it.
    My best code is written with the delete key.

    most recently: an expression template parser (with unlimited look ahead), a huffman template, a digital logic template (for compile-time virtual circuits), and an automated dereferencing template. way .
    Code:
    #include <cmath>
    #include <complex>
    bool euler_flip(bool value)
    {
        return std::pow
        (
            std::complex<float>(std::exp(1.0)), 
            std::complex<float>(0, 1) 
            * std::complex<float>(std::atan(1.0)
            *(1 << (value + 2)))
        ).real() < 0;
    }

    I think your sig counts as being pretty cool

    Uh-oh...

    You may want to find out a little more about Prelude before you start tossing around genders.

    That is, if it's not already too late

    This thread makes me realise how much I suck.

    Or I'm just borrowing suck from the source of sucky programmers.

    Since most of my work is classwork, it's just simply not cool at all.

    The coolest things I've made were a text-based tetris, a text-base trivia game (which can load various properly formatted text files), and a Roman Numeral <-> Arabic Numeral Converter, a standard playing card deck implementation with various working card games for it, and a little open GL world that doesn't even support collision detection.

    Not very impressive or cool, to say the least.

    ...and what isn't cool about Prelude's sig?
