hi how easy is it to stream live video feed through the internet. Do you just need a computer, a video camera and a broadcasting software with internet connections. google gave me these<http://www.nchsoftware.com/broadcam/index.html>........... any ideas of how these can be achieved. thanks
ffmpeg <http://ffmpeg.org/> is good and customizable in terms of formats. And it's free. On Mon, Jun 22, 2009 at 6:42 PM, Steve <sikileng@gmail.com> wrote:

It's a basic question and i'm sure alot of you can answer this but i'm still a bit sure. Take a look at the code below. #include <stdio.h> main() { int i, j; for (i=0, j=1; i<8; i++, j++) printf("%d - %d = %d\n", j, i, j - i); return 0; } Now the results yielded are 1 - 0 = 1 2 - 1 = 1 ... 8 - 7 = 1 i'd like to know what the delimiting factor here is, i.e. considering i've not set a loop limit for j, what's stopping my calculation from being as follows.. 148 - 8 = 0 as an example though from my understanding, it should present an infinite loop. I\ve been pondering this a while, thought i'd get some Guru's out there to help out with my understanding of this. Rahim.
i < 8 is the condition being evaluated so the moment it returns true (when i == 7) thats it. j has no influence on the evaluation of this condition. its same as if you had done main() { int i, j; for (i=0, j=1; i<8; i++) { printf("%d - %d = %d\n", j, i, j - i); *j++;* } return 0; } -Billy 2009/3/22 Rahim Kara <rahim@applecentre.co.ke>

lol, i can see where that's going, i thought about what Billy said as well and it made more sense to me, So in essence, if i set values for i and for j, due respect would be given to both and if only one, then the application would only function using that limit i.e. the query i brought forward where i<8 is the only condition set. That making any sense? On Jun 22, 2009, at 10:03 PM, Chris Mwirigi wrote:

@chris your code is extremely dangerous. Theortically your program will never stop execution but again in reality your program is going to crush eventually. You must remember when dealing with C/C++ that its your responsibility to manage the memory on the stack and the heap otherwise you end up with memory leaks, buffer overruns or stack overflows. Like the case in this code. The bounds of a signed int (16bit) are ( -32768 - 32767) so when j crosses the upper bound something has got to give. Seeing your code will cause an infinite loop. REMEMBER C AND C++ DO NOT PROTECT YOU AGAINST OVERWRITTING, ACCESSING OR OVERRUNNING MEMORY, YOU HAVE TO FIGURE ALL THIS OUT YOURSELF AND DECIDE HOW YOU ARE GONNA HANDLE IT. IN THIS CASE MAKE SURE J DOESN'T CROSS THE UPPER BOUND OF int... YOU HAVE BE WARNED!!! Steve Obbayi, Address: P. O. Box 19916 - 00100, Nairobi, Kenya.

Hi Booker,
Do you have a link to the source of this information? Is the authenticity of this "warning" guaranteed or is it chain mail?

Hi skunks and skunkettes
You should be alert during the next days:
Do not open any message with an attached file called 'Invitation' regardless of who sent it, It is a virus that opens an Olympic Torch which 'burns' the whole hard disc C of your computer.
This virus will be received from someone who has your e-mail address in his/her contact list, that is why you should send this e-mail to all your contacts. It is better to receive this message 25 times than to receive the virus and open it.

I find this hard to believe... are there any guys {Especially IT security Gurus - Chuks Jonia } who would care to shed some light on this... They say nothing is impossible... but it is impossible to lack a solution for a human generated problem... especially a virus. I mean its not a carnivore or a dragon that will "literally " EAT YOUR HDD! Muraguri.

@steve.... Rahim asked for an infinite loop just gave one On Tue, Jun 23, 2009 at 8:12 AM, Steve Obbayi<steve@sobbayi.com> wrote:
@chris your code is extremely dangerous. Theortically your program will never stop execution but again in reality your program is going to crush eventually. You must remember when dealing with C/C++ that its your responsibility to manage the memory on the stack and the heap otherwise you end up with memory leaks, buffer overruns or stack overflows. Like the case in this code. The bounds of a signed int (16bit) are ( -32768 - 32767) so when j crosses the upper bound something has got to give. Seeing your code will cause an infinite loop.
REMEMBER C AND C++ DO NOT PROTECT YOU AGAINST OVERWRITTING, ACCESSING OR OVERRUNNING MEMORY, YOU HAVE TO FIGURE ALL THIS OUT YOURSELF AND DECIDE HOW YOU ARE GONNA HANDLE IT. IN THIS CASE MAKE SURE J DOESN'T CROSS THE UPPER BOUND OF int...
YOU HAVE BE WARNED!!!

true @ billy j is only incrementing and not being evaluated for the loop. try this
main()
{ int i, j;
for (i=0, j=1; i<j; i++, j++)
printf("%d - %d = %d\n", j, i, j - i); return 0; }
On 6/22/09, Billy <billyx5@gmail.com> wrote:
i < 8 is the condition being evaluated so the moment it returns true (when i == 7) thats it. j has no influence on the evaluation of this condition. its same as if you had done
main()
{ int i, j;
for (i=0, j=1; i<8; i++) { printf("%d - %d = %d\n", j, i, j - i); *j++;* } return 0; }

It's a basic question and i'm sure alot of you can answer this but i'm still a bit sure. Take a look at the code below.
#include <stdio.h>
main()
{ int i, j;
for (i=0, j=1; i<8; i++, j++)
printf("%d - %d = %d\n", j, i, j - i); return 0; }
Now the results yielded are
1 - 0 = 1 2 - 1 = 1 ... 8 - 7 = 1
i'd like to know what the delimiting factor here is, i.e. considering i've not set a loop limit for j, what's stopping my calculation from being as follows..
148 - 8 = 0
as an example though from my understanding, it should present an infinite loop.
I\ve been pondering this a while, thought i'd get some Guru's out there to help out with my understanding of this.
Rahim.
