Request Your Programs

[Dayoh]

I am half decent at coding ;)
And as you's may not have already seen i have helped a member with a problem and i successfully meet his needs.

So this is the thread to request a program u may need, and ill look into it.

(i will not send and or make viruses and try to harm anouther persons P.C.)

ooooOOOooooo, now this sounds interesting!

What kinds of programs can you write, dayoh? I'm sure I could think of a few usefull programs I might want =P

[Dayoh]

Hopefully anything u throw at me lol.

hehe, how about a modification for windows media player version 10.00.00.4019 that adds a new type of playlist - a "smart" playlist that shuffles all your songs, but higher rated (star rating) songs play MUCH more often than lower rated songs. Five star songs will play quite frequently, four star songs almost as frequently, 3 star slightly less, 2 star not as often, 1 star almost never.

But if that's not possible....... =P

How about a "screen saver lock" program that, when enabled, prevents the screen saver or other power features from being activated? For example I could double click the .exe file to enable it, and it would keep the computer from doing anything as a result of being idle until I press a preset key on the keyboard (maybe escape or ~ or tab)..... and maybe it would display a dot in one of the corners or something to let you know its on.

(neither of these are high priority, only if you have nothing more important to do =P)

PS: you don't do web programming, do you? caus if you do then I have TONS of tasks to be done =P

modification for windows media player/"screen saver lock" program

id say that these could be done, i always wanted to make my own media player :), the screen lock thing could be done using the API's and such.

And in answer to the web stuff, yes i do, i am currently getting my own web design site online, the site is online but not finish lol
And yes i am planning on entering the web industry when i leave school ;)

DUDE! I was thinking of starting this exact same thread when I got better at programming! That's awsome... But anyways, let me see if I need anything.... Yes! Going with bluemicrobyte's media players idea, I would also like a media player -- But I dont want anything fancy. I want the oposite of fancy, just something that dosent lag on while multi tasking on my super slow computer. That is, the oposite of realplayer. :P

Alll I need is something that can play CDs and mp3s that are saved on my computer. Something like windows CD player, but can play saved stuff.

Well the first thing I need to get done on a website is in this thread: http://www.warboards.org/showthread.php?t=17773

If I have any other PHP related tasks, I shall post them here =P

You could easily write a macro that creates a playlist like that, although it wouldn't be dynamic. All you would need to do is create a playlist where all your five-star-rated songs are in there five times, the four-stars are in the list four times, etc. etc. and one-star songs are only in it once. Or whatever proportions you prefer.

If you're still wanting programs to make try this.

Create a simple product log that can compute XE^X = V Where "V" is a variable that the user supplies. And the program solves for "X"

(And just for good mesure here's the problem in words:

X times E to the power of X equals V)

PHP is easy. What's hard is trying to make windows apps in C++ >.<, though you mentioned once that you used VB6, so I may try that.
