Make a mess

How about a little group project for some light entertainment? This project has no specific aim, and anyone can contribute by adding/changing whatever they like, as long as it meets the rules. To do so take the most recent version, add something to it, then post it back.

The rules are simple:
1) Each new revision must compile with g++, but may have bugs in it (deliberate or not).
2) Only standard libraries can be included.
3) New versions should describe roughly what was changed.

I'm sure that between the lot of us we can come up with something amazing. I attached something to start off with.

C or C++?

Code in whatever will work, although probably no ASM unless its going to on all PCs.

An update of your man struct, it really needed it:

Code:

---

struct DATE {
  WORD year, month, day, hour, minute, second, millisecond;
};

typedef struct {  // version 2
  pman mother, father;
  BOOL sex;
  char *name;
  double x, y;
  DATE birth;
} man, *pman;

---

No, no, what you really need is:

Code:

---

        man* people[100];
        people[0] = MakeMan("Bob");
        printf("Hello I am %s ", people[0]->name);
        free(people[0]);
        getchar();

mother is a pointer to a man?

Removing the disgusting pointer typedef...

Code:

---

struct DATE {
  WORD year, month, day, hour, minute, second, millisecond;
};

typedef struct {  // version 2
  pman mother, father;
  BOOL sex;
  char *name;
  double x, y;
  DATE birth;
} man;

---

>> mother is a pointer to a man?
yes, the man struct is just a human.

dave, if you get rid of code, you should add new stuff to take it's place.

another update:

Code:

---

... // code needs to be made for the memory & ai

struct DATE {
  WORD year, month, day, hour, minute, second, millisecond;
};

class HUMAN {  // version 3
  // family
  PHUMAN mother, father;
  PHUMAN *child;
  DWORD children;
  // specifiers
  BOOL sex;
  char *name;
  double x, y, z;
  DATE birth;
  // more
  BRAIN mem;
};

typedef PHUMAN *HUMAN;  // I like typedefs! >:(

>dave, if you get rid of code, you should add new stuff to take it's place.
Naw. To quote Prelude: "My best code is written with the delete key."

I hate pointer typedefs/defines. They only make the code harder to read.
And gender should be an enum!
And no char*, only std::string!
What's missing is smart pointers, though.

Code:

---

struct DATE
{
        WORD year;
        WORD month;
        WORD day;
        WORD hour;
        WORD minute;
        WORD second;
        WORD millisecond;
};

enum eGender
{
        Female,
        Male
};

struct HUMAN
{  // version 3
        // family
        HUMAN* mother;
        HUMAN* father;
        HUMAN* child;
        DWORD children;
        // specifiers
        eGender gender;
        std::string name;
        double x, y, z;
        DATE birth;
        // more
        BRAIN mem;
};

---

Yarin:
Small alterations can be left in comments, like dave's, and elysia's.

If you are going to change the structures, you should alter the rest of the code to facilitate this. For example, whats BRAIN? If you simply dump your structs in, it will mangle the prog. Not that theres much to get mangled yet, but maybe post something that will compile?

Code:

---

class BRAIN
{
public:
        BRAIN(): bHasBrain(false) { }
        bool bHasBrain;
};

struct DATE
{
        WORD year;
        WORD month;
        WORD day;
        WORD hour;
        WORD minute;
        WORD second;
        WORD millisecond;
};

enum eGender
{
        Female,
        Male
};

struct HUMAN
{  // version 3
        // family
        HUMAN* mother;
        HUMAN* father;
        HUMAN* child;
        DWORD children;
        // specifiers
        eGender gender;
        std::string name;
        double x, y, z;
        DATE birth;
        // more
        BRAIN mem;
};

---

:D:D:D

And here I was just going to do a stupid little die roll, and make "Bob" walk somewhere.

Much better. :D

Code:

---

class BRAIN
{
  public:
      BRAIN(): bHasBrain(false) { }
      bool bHasBrain;
};

struct DATE
{
  WORD year;
  WORD month;
  WORD day;
  WORD hour;
  WORD minute;
  WORD second;
  WORD millisecond;
};

enum gender
{
  female,
  male
};

struct HUMAN
{
  // version 3
  // family
  HUMAN *mother;
  HUMAN *father;
  HUMAN **kid;
  DWORD kids;
  // specifiers
  gender sex;
  char *name;
  double x, y, z;
  DATE birth;
  // more
  BRAIN mem;
};

Code + tabs = unreadable hash of mashed tomato juice!

Well if you want to go for it citizen. So far the last valid submission was my original post :(

Hmmm.

Code:

---

class BRAIN
{
public:
        BRAIN(): bHasBrain(false) { }
        bool bHasBrain;
};

struct DATE
{
        WORD year;
        WORD month;
        WORD day;
        WORD hour;
        WORD minute;
        WORD second;
        WORD millisecond;
};

enum gender
{
        female,
        male
};

struct HUMAN
{
        // version 3
        // family
        HUMAN* mother;
        HUMAN* father;
        std::vector<HUMAN*> children;
        DWORD dwChildren;
        // specifiers
        gender sex;
        std::string name;
        double x, y, z;
        DATE birth;
        // more
        BRAIN mem;
};

---

Let's stop making life so hard on us... When we have C++, let's use it! ;)
And I still prefer tabs. You stole my quote, and now you try to steal it again? :rolleyes:

Elysia: could you please put that in a file w/ relevant includes and stuff in a form that will compile and maybe do something? That would give the next person something to work with :)

>> And here I was just going to do a stupid little die roll, and make "Bob" walk somewhere.

Ah, great idea!

Code:

---

BOOL HUMAN::Rotate(double rads)
{
  rot = rads;
  return TRUE;
}

BOOL HUMAN::Walk(double distance)
{
  x += cos(rot) * distance;
  y += sin(rot) * distance;
  z = GetHeightMap(NULL, x, y);
  return TRUE;
}

---

That's a horrible class. Each instance of HUMAN has a children vector, even if a particular human is only part of a family. Some humans don't have children so I'm not sure if that is a part of being human. Not to mention that we're using WORDS and DWORDS, which isn't very cross-platform, but mike wants it to work on g++.

Hmmm, with these problems, I think I liked Bob more.

Going somewhere with the class, Elysia?

Yarin: thanks for that. :p

Putting it into something compilable now.

Alright, here's the source, tested and everything.
Now feel free to continue building on it.

how about making them reproduce now! without any help from programmers!

If you want it, go ahead, code it ;)

Need a method man.sexytime(). Problem is, they won't be able to reproduce if they're both men :\ -- although they can still have 'sexytime'.

How about this then?
Disabled precompiled headers.
Moved declarations and definitions to top, above the prototypes.

That'll play. Danke.
