So my interest is in data compression

[heavyiron8]

I just spent 13 hours implementing the algorithm that winzip uses to compress files via java. Feels so good to see it working perfectly after so much work.

if anybody wants to see the code, I'll be happy to email it.

try programming forum, maybe interested people there

Now it's time to develop your own algorithm.

Now it's time to develop your own algorithm.

Perhaps a "girlfriend" or "social skills" algorithm. 😛

I have an algorithm, but it's pretty hard to dance to.

i remember having to do LZW and huffman in school, that was fun

Believe it or not, developing algorithms is something purely mechanical and can be automated as well.

I got plenty of that lol, no need for girlfriend in college.

We used the LZ78

i compressed someone's data with my fist once.

My interest is in tits. Big ones. Lots of them.

And ass.

Creating an algorithm requires an in-depth understanding of the problem to be solved and the steps necessary to complete the operation. How would a programmer even know where to begin on a 'Girlfriend' or 'Social skills' algorithm?

...not sure if serious...

very serious

meh, did this in high school.

meh, did this in high school.

Sure... of course you did.

I did this in my spare time, not something I'm turning in to anybody. And I wrote code for a robot that can navigate my school's entire building back in high school. Won me the programming applications competition, got a scholarship out of that as well.

you're back!!! 😀
