So, Thursday was my first completely missed post (and Friday my second). Not even a stub of a post to say that I wasn’t posting. I didn’t explode, nor did the blog go to hell. So, I suppose I can stop making such useless posts, at least on occasion. Also, I can rest easy on [...]
What’s that? Yes, that’s right, this is actually going to be a decent post. I made some more progress on my MATLAB code. The aircraft code is pretty much finished, and I’ve also tested it finally. Annoying MATLAB note number something-more-than-one, when you want to edit a value (known as a property) in a MATLAB [...]
So I added a listing of all of the books I’ve used in my studies, with a little description of my opinion on them. There should be more than enough information to try to track down a copy in your library or off the web. You’ll of course find this information to the right hand [...]
Considering the average number of days in a month (in a non-leap year), rounded to the nearest integer (just truncated in a leap year. Yes, I did the math on this) is 30, I’m considering myself one full month of daily blog posts into this. For me, that’s pretty impressive, as I’m usually the kind [...]
Did some thinking on MATLAB today. Not content with just doing a GUI, I figure I’m going to implement a simple sort of file I/O system whereby when a user enters constant values it can save them, and then reload them on a later start of the program. The inputs required include some that will [...]
MATLAB is a nice program. It’s great for doing what it does, expandable, pretty easy to program, overall a very handy tool. Seriously, though, they haven’t thought much about usability so far as I can tell. This isn’t a rant about the program being hard to use for built-in functions. In fact, that’s all pretty [...]
Matlab m-file (Download and run) Matlab Source Code (to view online) For the most part I haven’t changed the workings of this code. I did change one error dialog that told you the height needed to be between 0 and 20,000 meters when inputting an incorrect value for the height increments. Just a copy-paste situation [...]
Alright, I’m officially putting my Java development on hold from this point until… well, when I change my mind (probably no more than a couple of weeks, possibly much shorter). The reasons for this are twofold: While I enjoy Java more, I’m actually required to do my MATLAB assignments, so I need to get to [...]
Today’s post is mostly organization for me, setting down guidelines for the Material class I’m working on. Still, this could also serve as an informative post as I’m using strategies set out in some of my books. A contract is essentially what the name implies: a list of terms and conditions. In these particular circumstances, [...]
I’ve settled on an IDE called tIDE. It doesn’t seem to be very popular, but I find it to be amazingly quick when set up on a flash drive, it’s remarkably small, and it works quite well for everything I need. It’s not Netbeans in terms of some convenience features, but it’s actually survivable to [...]
