If you want to sound good when your saying that, just say you have 1gb of ram, because that is what 1gb is,

List:
1 bit
8 bits = 1byte
1024 bytes = 1kb
1024 kb = 1 mb
1024 mb = 1 gb
1024 gb = 1tb
1024 tb = 1nb (1 nano bite)
and thats all i know...

Edit: Bits not bites

Any way you say it it really sounds fine. It is just you would use your list if you wanted to be more in general.

Re: Emerald

yes...
wait, let me do a calculation for how many bits there are in a terrabyte
...

i think it is: 24576, don't think thats right...

ill try again.
...
This is more likely
There are 879609302208 bits in a terrabyte!

Re: Emerald

*double post dance*

I'm learning GTK+ cross platform user interface thingeh.

it's much easier than the windows api.

will convert CPPE to Cross-platform stuff soon.

Re: Emerald

J#,

* 4 DAYZE TILL CHRISTMAS

all we need to do is make the Python emerald output the save files in an easy way so that you can interpret it in J#. I don't really know J# though

Re: Emerald

Iv got a J++ book, but i think its kinda outdated.
I'm on my new computer, almsot 3 times as much hard disk space, better proccesor, way better graphics card. And it just looks awesome!

Plus my dads got a spare 200gb hard disk if i need it.

Re: Emerald

J++ is Microsoft's Java, Correct?

J# is a more standard language, ergo, you don't need the MSJVM to run it's stuff

Re: Emerald

four years ago, I could barely do Visual Basic.

Which is why I stuck with Visual basic for a while

Re: Emerald

J++ and J# have been replaced by C++ and C# for the most part. (The .NET versions anyway)

But J# is the C# of the internet, which i plan to use to make the online viewer, thoug it would help to see if i could get my hands on the code for the Scratch Applet. to see how it works and if it can be replicated to work with the emerlad coding.

Re: Emerald

it shouldn't be that hard, the syntax in java and J# are close, and C++ and java's are even closer.

java was meant to be an easier version of C++, that was cross-platform. my dad is a java programmer for a company called lexmark.  big_smile  i know more than the average joe about it.
( i still can't program in it, scriping languages are BETTER!!! )

Re: Emerald

Yes , I know that Java is meant to be an easier version of c++

but also requiring the JVM to develop stuff instead of plain executables is just plain irritatin.

the only redeeming factor is applets.

which can be developed for free(alternative to 500- 700 $ for flash)
but C++ is STILL better

Re: Emerald

We need to make our own Applet for "Meow" ( Marvellous Editor Of Wonder xD ) not use Scratch's. Gershmer, do you have MySql support?
