2019-10-23 - Peace of mind ------------------------------------------------------------------- I am looking for the peace of mind to read a book, to program a bit, and to learn some. Because that'd be nice things to do. However, i'm a bit restless... But at least i'm in a good mood today. :) I read a bit about memcpy today, a function in string.h to copy blocks of memory. And although i've used the function in the past, i had apparently forgotten about it, as i was copying some characters into strings using a for loop in some of my code. It's funny to notice i'm still a beginner when it comes to C. But hey, it's a good opportunity to learn a little bit every day. Also i learned about ANSI terminal control sequences, such as \x1b[H and such... Gosh all the things you can do. I wish i didn't had to work as much at my day job, so i could spend some actual time and energy learning all of this. Now i'm just casually dabbling a bit into programming in the evenings. Ah well, at least i have a cool computer to do this stuff. Also, here's a 'screenshot' of the little programming thing i'm working on. It's a tiny little library to create ASCII canvasses and blit stuff from one place to another. Isn't that cool? :P ...........(<>)......................... ..........._\/_....\\\\................. ...................[oo]......../\/\..... ...................\==/........(<>)..... ..../\/\...........-||-........_\/_..... ....(<>)........./| |\............... ...._\/_........|.| |.|.............. .................\d----b/............... ........./\/\.....| __ |............/\/\ ........(( +))....| || |............(<>) \/\......_\/_.....|_||_/\/\........._\/_ ))............../_\/(( +))............ \/_...................._\/_............. ........................................ .........................../^./\..`..... .....................Meow./o o \-_..\... ......./\/\...............|.I./ `-/... ......(( +))............../../`'-. /.... ......._\/_..............`..`....].].... ........................................
