So Ed and Julia have already left. Michael is leaving tomorrow, and I on Monday. So sad :'( Anyway, our code can be found here, some of which is still unpublished: http://www.gotdotnet.com/codegallery/codegallery.aspx?id=e94bc8ef-87b1-424b-ae25-39e81004e86a I've had an amazing summer, and I've met a lot of cool people (shameless facebook plug http://purdue.facebook.com/p.php?id=13701676&l=47052cead2). I'm definitely hoping to come back next summer. I don't have my own blog set up yet, but I'm working on it, and posting that link will likely be my last post here. Dan

So the coding contest is over. It was a lot more fun than I expected it to be. Although I have not yet finished the puzzle I was working on, I can say that I was amazed at the complexity of it. So I'm hoping that those of you that read this blog are technical people because the following is going to get very technical, and may even sound like rambling at some point. For this I apologize in advance. So we started on Friday around 5pm. We get the spec off the website and start implimenting the virtual machine. So Luke works on his implementation and tests it. However, by some stroke of magic his program works the first time we run it. Needless to say this was amazing. At first we weren't sure that it was working though because we were getting this random garbage being printed out to the screen. But then we got smart. We decided to capture the output to a file. So we do that. And we open it in Visual Studio, and there's this message that says "Delete everything up to ...

So it is Friday, and the end of our 3 week push to get out some awesomeness. There has been all sorts of things coming out of our lab, the best part having our dif and merg come together in a couple days without too many problems. After struggling around for about a week and a half without a serious form of source control (e-mail and im before that) we finally got Team Foundation Server running and getting used to the idea of checking in and checking out code and making sure that everyone had the latest version. Once we got that working I started to merge everything together in the UI so that it was functional. However, my implimentation was a bit off so it was updated and now everything totally fits intop the look and feel of visual studio, except our use of a smiley face as an icon because we haven't picked anything new. There is an interesting coding contest going on at http://icpfcontest.org that we are going to be participating in, along with some of our co-workers. I ...
