well, looks like no one here will help with the homework...
try this
private sub Commad1_click()
dim i as integer
for i=2 to 10 'why 2 cos 1 is not prime number
if i mod 2 =0 then debug.print i
next i
end sub

Because most of us here don't do people's homework for them. Your code does not work 100%.

Hi I have spent the day looking at implementing RSA on the client side with javascript and on the server side with C#.NET.
I think I am overlooking something very simple and this is my problem. To make a key of 1024 bits requires a datatype to store it in. What datatype should i use, i considered byte[] but surely byte[]*byte[] is undefined (to create the key).
Any help will be greatly appreciated
Thanks
Dan

You need to find a library for integers of arbitrary length or write one yourself.
Cheers,
Sebastian

Write or find the class that will handel the 1024(or biger) bit long number.
if write see some algoritms like:
1) Baret reduction
2) Montgomeri multiplay
. . . .
you will ned them in class.
[ It will better if you write class]

My new project, I'm working on some path-finding algorithms for little AI
people. I have a grid of terrain heights and I have a pathing algorithm. The
trouble I'm having is how to weight the movement cost from one square to the
next. If moving across level terrain from one square to another is 1, how do
I cost uphill and downhill travel? I'm kinda stumped.
Also, moving diagonally is technically 1.41 in distance, should I cost it as such or just leave it as one for simplicity's sake? What are the pros and cons?
Any thoughts?

I think you should leave it as 1.41, otherwise you'll have funny results 
Regarding height, maybe a cost formula like sqrt(deltaX^2 + deltaY^2 + (k*deltaZ)^2) might do
You could change the k coeff if climbing is more or less expensive than moving horizontally.

Wow. It never occured to me that the Pythagoreum thing worked in three dimensions. Thanks. That helps a lot.
My question is though, what to change the value of k to? If the target square is n higher or n lower, how do you cost it for the expense of climbing uphill, or downhill as compared to walking over level ground? I thought about giving it an arbitrary value based on the difference in terrain heights, but that seemed kinda clunky to me.
What I should do I suppose is find a chart on the internet of the amount of calories burned in walking as opposed to stair-climbing and wall-climbing. That might help.
Thanks again.
----------------------
...ten minutes later
Okay, I looked up the calorie charts and it turns out that stair-climbing is approximately double straight walking, and wall-climbing is approximate triple straight walking. So if I convert that to angles:
0 = 1
45 = 2
90 = 3
Now how do I convert that into a formula so that values in between return their appropriate costs?
I'll assume the values are the same for going down in terrain as well, though they might be slightly cheaper.

cost = 1 + (angle / 45)
d'uh. I better get some coffee. Thanks all.

I felt curious about the calories issue, i think it is a good idea of giving values to k I've found this link:
http://www.calorie-count.com/calories/activities/17.html

I figured it out. Thanks, kind sir.
k = 1 + (angle / 45)
Now to figure out how to calculate the angles...

Just remember your trig functions:
/|
h / |
/ | o
/ |
/ θ |
------
aI remember them with the mnemonic SOHCAHTOA:
SOH -> sin(θ ) = opposite / hypotenuse
CAH -> cos(θ ) = adjacent / hypotenuse
TOA -> tan(θ ) = opposite / adjacent
Then, to find the angle, you can use the inverse trig functions:
θ = asin(opposite / hypotenuse) = acos(adjacent / hypotenuse) = atan(opposite / adjacent)
In standard Cartesian coordinates, if the triangle is oriented as above with the origin located where θ is, then the adjacent side (a) is x, and the opposite side (o) is y. So, since you usually know x and y, there is no need to calculate the hypotenuse to find the angle, since you can then do θ = atan(y/x).
Be aware that the above identities are true only for radian angles. If you need degrees, then you must convert at the end using the identity 180 degrees = π (should be a pi, but it looks funny in my font) radians.

I kinda wish I took Trig. I suck.
Thanks anyway.

Maybe the first part of this might help:
Trigonometry[^] at MathWorld.
Some of the stuff towards the bottom gets into some advanced stuff, but at the bottom of the page there are a bunch of links that you could follow that might help too.

Okay. I think I got this...
So in this case, x would always be 1 (or 1.41 if it's diagonal), and y would be the difference of the current terrain height and the target terrain height?
No wait. That's not right. I'll have to figure out the ratio of x (being 1) to y (being anywhere from 0 to 255).
It sucks being almost a nerd, but not quite.
-----------------------------------------------
K... I went with an arbitrary ratio of 25:1. So if the difference is 255, that'll count as 10x (approximately). Hopefully that works.
Thanks all.

I'm not quite sure what you mean... From your other post, I think the way you have your terrain is basically a matrix of heights (just random numbers I picked):
+---+---+---+---+
| 3 | 2 | 2 | 1 |
+---+---+---+---+
| 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 |
+---+---+---+---+
| 6 | 9 | 9 | 7 |
+---+---+---+---+
| 4 | 6 | 5 | 4 |
+---+---+---+---+ Say, you wanted to find the angle between the '6' cell and the '7' cell in the middle of the matrix. If you think about like you're looking at the matrix from the side (as if you were actually looking at the terrain, but more like a cross-section), then the second row would look like:
---
---/ 8
---/ 7
---/ 6
5Assuming that the distance between cells (not counting diagonally) is 1 (as you said, for diagonally it should be sqrt(2)=1.414). So, if we just look at the 6 and 7 levels ("zoomed in"):
-----
/ 7
/
-----/
6we can make the triangle:
-----
/| 7
/ |
-----/--+
6So, I think you do want the difference in the terrain heights as your y.

Yup. That's what I figured as well.
The question was, if the distance between 6 to 7 is 1, and the difference in heights is anywhere from 0 to 255, what ratio do I use to scale down 0 to 255 to corespond with the distance of 1 grid square. I went with 25:1 (arbitrarily).
Thanks for your help.

Well, I don't think you need to scale the y values to calculate θ...
Examples:
x=1, y=1:
θ = atan(1/1) = atan(1) = π / 4 = 45 degrees
x=1, y=255 (a very tall slope):
&theta: = atan(255/1) = atan(255) = 1.566 = 89.775 degrees (almost a vertical wall, which makes sense if you are going from a square at height 0 to a square at height 255.

But what if it's 1.41, as is the case when going uphill diagonally? Does it still work?
"Go to, I’ll no more on’t; it hath made me mad." - Hamlet
|
|
|
|

Yup, since the formulas are based on right triangles, and they can be computed totally in terms of the sides of the triangle. No scaling needed
One thing to watch out for is making sure your signs are consistent. For example, if you are going down from 7 to 6. In C and C++, there is the function atan2() which can take into account the signs of x and y for you, but I'm not sure if other languages provide it.

I'm just taking the absolute value of the difference, so going up or down is essentially the same result.
Thanks once again.

If you have a grid of terrain heights you'll never meet the 90° case, so I considered a h threshold
cost = Sqrt(deltaX^2 + deltaY^2 + Math.Max(1, ((DeltaZ > h) ? 3 : DeltaZ))^2)
The case deltaX = +-deltaY = +-1 gives an angle of moreless 35°, I merged it with the case of 45°
I am assuming your grid is a "square" one and that you apply the formula when -1 <= deltaX, deltaY <= 1
Havent't check it though, hope it helps ...

Now that you mention it, a 90 degree angle would require infinite height in the adjacent terrain square.
I'm not sure what Math.Max does. You'll have to dumb that down to psuedo code for me.
My terrain is a square grid of heights from 0 to 255. I randomly assigned the values to each square and then smoothed them over with each square moving to the average height of its 8 neighbours. After a couple passes I got something that looks like a terrain. Then I assigned an arbitrary value for the sealevel and voila... a map.
Super clunky, but I'm too dumb to get into fractal terrain heights and all that. Actually, if I thought about it long enough, I suppose I could come up with something sort of fractalish, subdivide... displace... but I just wanted to get to the fun part, working out the Ai for the little people.

Hello, I have a strange problem, but probably it is because i am lacking knowledge, but what?
When debugging this:
double dTryThis = 1.23456789;
the debuggers variable watch shows this value for dTryThis:
1.234567889999999
instead of the expected 1.234567890000000! And so is the wrong value used for further calculations! Is my computer sick or am I or what? I am on Visual Studio 2005 C++.
Thanks a lot for your help!
Martin...
