Programmers Aplenty

[Infin 763]

I was wondering if anyone has ever used CUDA before?

[+Dr. Obvious 14,606]

Only as a user in certain apps, sorry.

[Se7en 10,762]

Only on weekends.

Nah, not here

My degree honours project is to show CUDA working on an algorithm and compare it with the same algorithm being processed without CUDA. Essentially showing the benefits.

I need to learn CUDA from scratch so I was wondering if anyone had tips on a good source of learning. I'll also need an idea for what kind of algorithm my demo will be on, but that comes later.

It sounds a damn sight more interesting than the areas I cover which are financials and advanced manufacturing

Sound's more interesting than my honours project; which consisted of programming a mobile device using the Android API to connect to a RC car with an integrated xIMU board, and using the mobile device's accelerometer to steer the car and the xIMU's accelerometer to determine the tactile elements..

Sounds more interesting than my honours project. I didn't do one.

Unrelated to my CUDA project: does anyone know any Erlang?

[fever 9,884]

No sorry...webbie dev here mainly.

[Infin 763]

Destined to program in the obscure languages and libraries.

[+Dr. Obvious 14,606]

Sounds interesting, though. Kinda.

Here's a wild shot in the dark. Someone 'ave a look at this and tell me if my logic is faulty. Also plz tell me where.

-module(ass2).
-export([main/0]).
-export([printList/1]).
-export([compare/2, compare/1]).


main() -> 
	List = [2,5,3,6,3,2,7,8,5,6],
	SortedList = lists:usort(List),
	printList(List),
	printList(SortedList),
	printList([]),
	compare(SortedList, List).
	
printList(L) ->
	io:format("~w~n", [L]).

compare([], []) -> 0;	

compare(A,  ->
	[H1|T1] = A,
	R = [X || X <- B, H1 == X],
	printList(R),
	printList(T1),
	compare(T1, .
	
compare([]) -> 0.

The problem is mostly in the compare(A, part.

[+Dr. Obvious 14,606]

What... language is that? Looks oddly familiar, but some of the calls don't make sense to me...

[Infin 763]

That was Erlang. I sorted my problem though, but there's still more to do.
