I want to be a game programmer so do I need a degree in computer programming or in game development?

Game programming is based on either C++ or Java

Here is the list of skill set expected by employee

C++
Data structures in C++ - Singly and doubly linked list very crucial

How to uninstall Adobe Dreamweaver without using Windows Uninstaller?

admin — Sun, 14 Mar 2010 05:30:29 +0000

My Adobe Dreamweaver is having a serious program bug. It can’t be scanned, opened, or anything without my whole computer freezing. I can’t uninstall it using the default Windows Uninstaller, either, because it will freeze. Is there any way that I can completely remove Adobe Dreamweaver? I do not want to buy any program that will supposedly work, either. Free only, please.

Thank you!

Ccleaner has an uninstaller.

should I continue to use Adobe after installing Silverlight?

When I try to watch a video I get skips and pauses. Is there a compatibility issue?

No it just takes a while to load and sometimes the video gets ahead of where the loading is at, and it pauses until it catches up.

How do you write net ionic equation for the reaction between nitric acid and calcium hydroxide?

admin — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 23:24:31 +0000

I have to write a net ionic equation for nitric acid and calcium hydroxide and all the answers I’ve submitted have been rejected. If someone could explain how to create the equation that would be great.

Write your reactants as ions in solution, as well as your products as either ions or molecules. Then cancel out things that appear on either side of the reaction
So:
2HNO3 + Ca(OH)2 -> Ca(NO3)2 + 2H2O
becomes
2H+(aq) + 2NO3-(aq) + Ca2+(aq) + 2OH-(aq) -> Ca2+(aq) + 2NO3-(aq) + 2H2O(l)

As you can see, 2NO3- and Ca2+ appears on both sides of the equation, so we cancel them out, and they are excluded from the net ionic equation

Net ionic:
2H+ (aq) + 2OH- (aq) - 2H2O (l)

What is a job based on computer programming that makes a lot of money?

admin — Fri, 05 Mar 2010 23:22:35 +0000

Hello, I am fifteen years old, and I have approximately five days to decide my future job.
I am wondering if there is any career in computer programming that provides extremely good money (400,000$+). Also could you please list some courses that I would have to take in order to achieve this.
Thank you for your time. Full points to the best answer.
Most programmers don’t make 6 figures (or barely make 6 figures, if they’ve been at it for a while). For that kind of money, you have to have some pretty good ideas, skills, and business sense. One possibility: creating a startup that get’s bought out by a bigger firm. A great deal of success can be had through independent efforts (think: Google, Facebook), but it’s also rather risky (you’re not likely to be the next Google, or Facebook). If you’re interested in a more corporate setting, upper management positions (senior design leads, etc.) probably make closer to the amounts you’re talking about. And any large software company will have plenty of upper management positions (though not easily attained, necessarily, without a lot of motivation and people skills, on top of programming skills).

The courses you take are almost irrelevant; if they have programming courses at your school you should definitely take them; but it’s more important that you have the desire to learn things on your own. You can learn a lot more about programming by just trying things out than by taking structured courses (experience is everything).

I think you have the wrong perspective here: don’t worry about money or courses or your career, even. Just try to find something you like doing, then afterwards try to figure out how you can make money doing it.

In Dreamweaver, is there a keystroke or a way to add a button for strikethrough?

admin — Wed, 03 Mar 2010 20:33:19 +0000

I use Dreamweaver in a way that I need the command constantly. As far as I can tell, the only ways to make that line appear through the text is by manually coding it in or my using the dropdown menu. Those are both really inconvenient. Is there any way to add a strikethrough button to a toolbar menu? Alternatively, is there a keystroke that could do it for me?

Those tags are deprecated in HTML 4.0.1, meaning they may become obsolete in future versions of HTML. Use CSS to do that:

Have you tried using the Redo Command to see if it would work. My editor has code snippets which are easily added when I need them. Must be the reason why I haven’t opened my DW in ages.

Actually, by default Dreamweaver does not use the traditional and HTML tags for bold and italic, respectively. Instead it uses and (for emphasis). The latter tags are preferred as part of best practices, because they are better handled by screen readers used by visually impaired users. If you want to switch Dreamweaver back to using and , choose Edit > Preferences (Dreamweaver > Preferences), and in the General category of the Preferences dialog, deselect "Use and in place of and ."

What are the factors influencing the net direction of water movement in animal and plant cells?

admin — Sat, 27 Feb 2010 15:26:28 +0000

And how do they differ with respect to the effects of net water movements?

The osmotic pressure, turgor pressure and the water potential are the factors responsible for the net flow of water, from one cell to another.

WPF button only works when clicking on content?

admin — Sat, 27 Feb 2010 15:26:04 +0000

Using c# windows form, hosting a wpf user control, the buttons on the user control only allow a click on the content of the button, but not on the button’s blank space. Is there a property that changes this?

Have you got the click handler on the content rather than the button? I tend to code buttons as:

(Although that seems unlikely, but it’s possible.)

I’m always caught out by windows that don’t have a fill, even a transparent fill, associated with them. If it isn’t painted, it isn’t clickable!

How do I load different content in Dreamweaver without loading new page?

admin — Thu, 25 Feb 2010 16:42:33 +0000

I’m developing a website using Dreamweaver CS3, the pages all have the same wudgets on (flickr & twitter) and as a result, I’d prefer that the whole page not need to reload when user clicks on navigation. Is there a way that I could have only part of the page load different content?

Just open new instances
