You don't need those brackets {} at case becase you're useing one function or whatever

        case 166, 165, 164, 163, 280, 281, 282, 283, 288, 284, 285, 287, 57, 265, 266, 267: return 0;

How long do you scripting/programming, ******?
Your work is really awesome!

Sure he is
He started with a very young age because his dad is a well known programmer (or something like that)
And he is not like the most of this community around ~16 or ~15 (if you look at the age thread - bad youth)
He should be something around 25, I think

But I got a question, too, why are you still that active and your lastname, want to ****** for your dad again

And admin can delete that in the near future

Shouldn't need this as the function doesn't need to be public.

I don't get it. I made it public's as stock's are slower.
So what exactly are you trying to say?
I've been reading alot of your topics, but I don't get the bit part yet?
Some topics seems a little confusing, if you only know pawn.

I may have used a godfather function. I don't really know, as I haven't used gf.
I think I found the function on this forum, and edited it to fit my gm.

Anyways. Thanks for the hints.
I learn new things every day. So thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

Re: Useful Functions - ded - 30.12.2009

Afaik, functions don't need to be public unless they are called by SetTimerEx and things.

Re: Useful Functions - Djiango - 30.12.2009

Thanks pawnstar.
I've been reading about publics, and I think I get it now.

Re: Useful Functions - ded - 30.12.2009

No problemo

Re: Useful Functions - M4S7ERMIND - 31.12.2009

what does quicksort do? some efficient data collection O(xn) O(n) O(1І).. it would take me 4 days to figure out what ******'s functions do. >_<

Re: Useful Functions - Donny_k - 31.12.2009

"IsACivillianSkin(...)" This function is a modified version of "IsValidSkin" from Simons debug script IIRC.

Functions are required to be public when they are being called by the machine, this is when it's a timer or you are calling it using the CallLocal/RemoteFunction, they don't need to be public unless they are one of the two.

It makes this "64938" into this "34689", it's sorts values into an order (score systems mostly use it).

Yes I know, I was filling in the blanks ("things").

I'm not correcting you dude.

O(xn) - Means it is also relative to the number of items, but slower than the other one per item (I'm not sure this is valid notation).
O(1) - Means it always takes the same time regardless of the number of items.
I dont know if I understood right O(1) is the most efficient, then O(n) and O(xn) is least efficient..

Alright, I used GenerateList for IsValidSkin:

  12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19
};

main()
{
  GenerateList("Gamemode.pwn", "IsValidSkin", Skins, true);
}

stock IsValidSkin(skinid)
{
  if(skinid >= 0 && skinid <= 2 || skinid == 7 || skinid >= 9 && skinid <= 41 || skinid >= 43 && skinid <= 64 || skinid >= 66 && skinid <= 73 ||   skinid >= 75 && skinid <= 85 || skinid >= 87 &&
    skinid <= 118 || skinid >= 120 && skinid <= 148 || skinid >= 150 && skinid <= 207 || skinid >= 209 && skinid <= 264 || skinid >= 274 && skinid <= 288 || skinid >= 290 && skinid <= 299) return 1;
  return 0;
}
It generated me this:
pawn Код:
stock bool:
  IsValidSkin(val) //line 11195
{
  static
    s_iValArray[] = 
    {
      -377,   -1025,  -4195335,  -8388625,  -2097153,
      -1,   -65537,     -1,  -131074,    4093
    };
  if (val > 299)
  {
    return false;
  }
  return (s_iValArray[val >> 5] & (1 << (val & 0x1F))); //line 11207
}
I use it like this:
pawn Код:
if(!IsValidSkin(skinid)) return SendClientMessage(Invalid skin ID...
Then I compile and it gives me 2 warnings:
(11195) : warning 208: function with tag result used before definition, forcing reparse
(11207) : warning 213: tag mismatch

The warnings are gone when I remove bool: from line 11194, so I dont know why theres bool.. :\
Anyway, is that more efficient than IsValidSkin I used before

Re: Useful Functions - M4S7ERMIND - 31.12.2009

The tag problem got fixed, when I moved the function above where its used, however the tag mismatch was still there.
I generated: GenerateList("Gamemode.pwn", "IsValidSkin", Skins, false);, changed the function to IsInvalidSkin and then
the tag mismatch warning was gone. :S

I try to make my server as efficient as possible, thanks for help ****** ^^

Why would I start filling a list that return false. It would take me forever :S

Im glad you fixed tag mismatch problem and thanks for providing me with such a useful information and for the update link. ^^

Re: Useful Functions - StrickenKid - 01.01.2010

Useful string & charcter uppercase and lowercase functions

pawn Код:
stock bool:isupper(c)
{
    if (c >= 65 && c <= 90)
        return true;
    return false;
}
Usage:
Код:
isupper( char ) - returns true if the char is uppercase, returns false if not
pawn Код:
stock strtolower(str[])
{
    for (new i = 0, j = strlen(str); i < j; i++)
    {
      if (isupper(str[i]))
        str[i] += 32;
    }
}
Usage:
Код:
strtolower( "StRiNg" ) - translates the uppercase chars to lowercase - does not return a specific value
pawn Код:
stock bool:islower(c)
{
    if (c >= 97 && c <= 122)
        return true;
    return false;
}
Usage:
Код:
islower( char ) - returns true if the char is lowercase, returns false if not
pawn Код:
stock strtoupper(str[])
{
    for (new i = 0, j = strlen(str); i < j; i++)
    {
      if (islower(str[i]))
        str[i] -= 32;
    }
}
Usage:
Код:
strtoupper( "StRiNg" ) - translates the lowercase chars to uppercase - does not return a specific value
Happy coding and have a happy new years,
