Has anyone suggested using a list yet?

I would suggest a book instead.

I already have a book. If I buy a second book, should I keep them in an array,
or do you have a better suggestion?

Is one of those books a Dictionary?

I don't read recursive books, they either take too long or suddenly end in
a painful StackOverflowException.

Does this result in you performing a core dump?

No, I don't do core dumps either, analyzing them also puts me in an eternal loop.

Yes, of course, books should stay into the stacks.

You can make a LIFO stack in the corner. Or buy some string and make a linked list. Or buy two buckets and make a hash table.
Despite everything, the person most likely to be fooling you next is yourself.

Buying buckets to store books. That's a novel concept, I'll have to ponder that a while.
However my first book isn't waterproof... So I'll go for the string, bind the books
together, and get rid of the problem. I can store one bucket in the corner (that will come
handy some day), and no need for a stack, so now I have a spare bucket.
Any suggestions how I can keep two buckets in an orderly fashion? an array of buckets? Anyone with a better idea?

Another idea for storing books would be a table. One book on the table, and one to keep it level.
Or perhaps a tree of some sort. If you already have the string.

Buckets are usually very stackable, at least when empty.
Otherwise you can just put them in boxes and throw them in a heap.

Aha, buckets can be boxed, hence they are value types, hence I don't need my string
to link them together, I'll use it to bind the books instead as I already was going to;
so all I need now is two boxes. In the end, in order to store two books, I need two boxes.
Right. OO is simple after all, it just takes a while to get used to it.
Now that we discovered all this, do we still need the second book? and the buckets?
and the string? the boxes? And if we only need a single book, what is all this OO about??

Books are usually already bound when you buy them. If you use thread instead of string, and make a doubly linked list, it would be multi threaded. I hope that you don't have a single threaded apartment.
If you have only one book, you could get some glue and make it static.

Yes, of course, but I was given the advice of storing the books in buckets, and
they fell apart; no one told me to buy empty buckets. And I wish I'd gotten the glue
advice first. Yes mine is a typical singles apartment, how did you guess?

I'll change up the recommendations. If you only need Add() and Remove() functionality, I would say to use the Generic Collection class from the System.Collections.ObjectModel namespace instead and avoid the extra bloat of the Generic List.

Hi My Friends
I develop software with C#.Net 2005, Yesterday installed Borland Delphi 2006 on my PC for debugging and working another program, Delphi work correct and no problem but when switch to C#, see Runtime Error about float.Parse method.
For example if you write float f = float.Parse("2.3");
See below Runtime Error :
Input string was not in a correct format.
This method work in the previous and at now work on the another PC, I think System library conflict with delphi.
If you have solution for me, I will grateful from you.
Best Regards,
Reza Shojaee

Could this be a localization issue? Try specifying the IFormatProvider.
float f = float.Parse("2.3", NumberFormatInfo.InvariantInfo);

Thank you for your guidance,
I test your solution and get appropriate result.
But do you know why in the previous no need to determine NumberFormatInfo ?
Best Regards,

I presume in your computer's language settings it's expecting a comma for a decimal seperator (2,00) rather than a period (2.00)
Invariant Culture just tells the language to always use "."
|
|
|
|

I suspect that maybe the install of Delphi may have triggered a change in your localization settings, or maybe a windows update? I can't be sure this is the case, though. I haven't run into a situation where my locale has changed without my intervention.

Reza Shojaie,
Works fine for me. So its something to do with your setup. Test it on a clean machine without delphi.
Regards,
Gareth.
