Advice for poker odds calculator

Hi, Im about to start building an application that will keep track on what hand has best odds to win in texas holdem.
For every card I get I push a button, for ex AK spades I push two buttons. One for the A and one for the K, and then the final two buttons if it won or lost.
That will take 52 + 2 Buttons. Is there a better way to do it then create 54 JButtons?
Best regards Magnus.

I realize this is probably beyond the needs of your project, but if I were doing this, I'd use an image of all the cards in a deck, as a sort of imagemap. (I think that Swing doesn't support HTML-style imagemaps, but they're easy to implement -- just have a mouse listener that takes the x,y position on the image and do some math to figure out which card the mouse click was on.)
You can find images of all the cards in a deck on the net. They're so you can write card games. The idea is that you load the image and use it as a tile of card sprites, but you could just use the image as a whole.
It would be a really intuitive interface. Just click on the card you want.Yes that is a great idea, That would look really nice.Also you could add a feature where an animation of Lady Gaga appears singing "Poker face" when the odds of winning are greater then 90%.

Design advice for vertical list calculations

I'm extending a product management life cycle sharpoint 365 site,
With purchase orders, magazine store, production targets (date based) and sold dates.
So that in our production environment we can see how much is stored, how much can be sold, and what we need to buy in etc.
The thing i'm a bit troubled about that sharepoint lists are not Excel, but this has to be done with Sharepoint lists.
They prefer not to have edits directly in the aspX code, but editing workflows in Sharepoint designer is OK
In excel one could easily add a cell formula with the content of Sum the value in the row left of me and add it to the value of myself one row earlier (like B2 contained = A2+B1 ); and then copy that formula to the whole B column
The nice thing with Excel is that when you change some value in A, like A2 = 10 and and later A5=10 then B7 would be 20
Changing later a value like A3 =4 would recalculate quickly and re- totals the B column.
Sharepoint Lists, calculated fields work only horizontally, so to do some vertical actions one needs a workflow, and do some lookup based upon (calculated previous) ID field, ea ID -1. Or stepp through to All ID's till current. What borders me a bit, is that
my list will grow large at some point. So stepping through all ID's to sum them till current Item seams 'slow' to me, on the other hand if i only check the previous version then the whole column (B) wouldnt be recalculated, if someone changed an older entry.
Extremly simplified i have a single list with the columns below (where stored act as my B column).
bought | stored | sold
0 | 5 | 0
2 | 5 | 0 (raw products need to be manufactured before stored so they're added 1 by 1 later).
0 | 6 | 0
0 | 7 | 0
0 | 4 | 3 (but when sold we can subtract directly from storage)
Ofcourse i need some horizontal calculations because i need to track as well if there has been bought enough for production. But i wonder what would be Wise to do, base thing on current ID and ID minus 1, or to walk through all items by work flow (recalculate
whole list), or like with changes; recalculate from current changed till the end (not sure how to detect end yet.. but well something like that).
I just wonder what would be wise here, and the best direction for this.
The table i showed is a extreme simplified, in fact also some other tables and workflows will be the feeders of the data.
Its just that the whole thing makes me a bit worry and wonder what would be best, and maybe i oversee something maybe there are other ways for vertical calculations over lists.

After lots of thinking, and seeing how slow office 365 SharePoint reacted upon my list workflows.
I've decided to use a "site variables list", in which I store variables as rows and their value in a columns.
And I refer to them by ID (or one could use another indexed unique value).
It's maybe not an exact calculation of the whole thing (build around several lists) but everything is a lot faster then stepping trough each item in a huge list. And it also allows for a bit more easy tweaking of these "vertical" calculations.
If for some reason those calculations would need adjustments (by change of management definitions), I have easy access to those variables to adjust them.
On a side note, when I use those variables, it turned out it worked a bit better to create in the workflow local variables, then do the calculation, and put it in the right table you want those numbers to appear in. As compared to directly referring to the
total. It takes just 5 sec or so to update. With this method size of the lists have no almost no impact on the speed of the workflow now.

Poker odds

Hi, i found some source code online for a holdem poker odds calculator.
i had a look at the code, and tried to copy and compile it. It compiles, but doesn't give the answer i was expecting! bascially it's for a java appletts which you can see here:
http://www.jbridge.net/jimmy/holdem_sim.htm
As you can see, a % probability shows in the top left of the applet. What i need is the same code, so that when i supply hard-coded values for the number of players, the cards etc, it will print to the console the % probabilty. I have literally tried to work out the code for two days without any luck. I was wondering if someone who knows abit more about java could take a peak.
here is the code
poker.java: contains what i am after basically (the evaluate function i think is the most important)

LabVIEW done right: Requesting advice for a large LabVIEW project

Hello Everyone,
I have been coding LabVIEW for about 2 years now, off and on as my company requires it, and although my coding abilities and neatness have improved greatly since I first started I still end up with large, messy looking programs.
I have a great understanding of SubVIs and use them regularly and often. I am also familiar with the various code structures such as a producer/consumer or state machine. But I keep finding that too much of my main code is interdependent on common variables, indexes, and values that it seems impossible to simplify any of them into subVIs because I would need like 10+ inputs or a custom cluster for each one. This seems counter productive and time consuming.
I have searched far and wide for good programming technique for larger labview programs and I have only been able to find the most basic advice such as "Use subVIs" or "Use a state machine" and all the examples I can find are laughably simple.
I can reduce my program to 3 while loops. One captures Events and gives commands on a queue, another takes those queued items and performs actions, and the third performs data gathering, plotting, and saving once each second. This starts out good, but by the time I've incrementally added all the features my company requires, each loop is a huge interconnected mess of wires with no clear way to section them up into subVIs.
A solution would be to make everything either a global variable or FG but as a native C programmer I was always taught to avoid globals. And if I went the FG route I would need somewhere around 100+ different VIs just to handle them all.
Is there something I'm missing? I want to know how you pass data between the various loops of your program. Do you use one big cluster? Globals? FGs? None of these options seem ideal to me but maybe I'm missing something obvious.
If anyone has any advice for me, it would be well appreciated. Better yet, if anyone has, or could point me to, an example program exhibiting an ideal programming structure for a project similar to the one I mentioned above, I would love to take some time to look it over. Hopefully I'll be able to pick up some good tips and tricks for keeping my main VI to one screen size, and effectively passing all the required data to all the subVIs that require it.
Thanks in advance,
-Aaron

Do you try to identify related information that can be used by a whole set of related subVI's? For example, you might have several parameters related to a specific piece of hardware. These can be grouped into a typedef cluster (or, even better, an object with all the related subVIs part of the object class). You definitely don't want to be using custom cluster for each subVI, but well designed subVI's shouldn't have more than a few custom inputs once related information is grouped.
As for data in the loops, I usually just have one big cluster in a shift register. This is never itself sent into a subVI, but parts of it (the typedef clusters or objects from above) are unbundled and sent into subVI's. It's basically just serves as a cleaner way of holding all the parameters. I'll attach an image of a "state" of the program I'm now working on. There are only a few wires unbundled in each individual "state", even though the full cluster (the top shift register in the image) has 20-odd components (and some of them are subclusters/objects that themselves have many components, such as the "Selected Record" object in the image which itself is a 15 element cluster).
BTW, I'm using the "JKI state machine toolkit" which you might want to look at to get some ideas.

There should be no issues. Its designed to work like that. You don't change Apple IDs just because you get a new device.

Is there any chance that the phones can fall out of sync?
Unlikely. But nothing is impossible. Though I don;t see how that would happen. As long as both are signed into the Same Apple ID / iCloud Account they will be N'Sync. (Bad Joke)

If I get a message or buy an app or take a photo on the iPhone 5, how do I get those things onto the iPhone 6?
If you buy an App, you have 2 ways to get it to the iPhone6: If Automatic Downloads is enabled in Settings->iTunes & App Store, it will automatically download to the iPhone 6 when you buy it on the 5 and vice versa if you buy it on the 6, it will download to the 5.
Alternatively, you can simply go to the App Store App->Updates->Purchased and look for the App there and download it. Purchased Apps will not require payment again. i.e They'll be free to download to the iPhone 6 once purchased.
SMS Messages will sync over using Continuity as long as they are on the same Wifi network. Otherwise, restoring the iPhone 5 backup to the iPhone 6 will transfer all messages received up until the backup was made onto the iPhone 6.
Images, can be transferred either through Photo Stream
My Photo Stream FAQ - Apple Support
Or any Cloud service you want such as Dropbox, or One Drive.
mannyace wrote:
Also, something i forgot to ask initially: Should I update the iPhone 5 to iOS 8 first or does that not matter?
If you want the Continuity features as explained above you need to update the iPhone 5 to iOS 8. Otherwise its not all that important.

Multiple libraries, Pbook/Pmac, advice for management & updating please.

Hi Everyone,
I travel frequently, and am looking for suggestions to keep all my iPhoto libraries up to date. I currently have a g5, Powerbook, and Mini.
I just upgraded to iPhoto 6 and I have several thousand photos on my Dual g5. I just came back with 1000 more from my diving trip. The problem is, they are on my Powerbook, and taking up alot of space on the relatively small hard drive. I managed to work through the rough upgrade from 5 to 6, and now I need some more help...
1) What is your advice for managing multiple libraries of photos.
2) What is the best way to transfer the iphoto pics (and movies) to my desktop, which of course has the larger storage capacity, after travelling...
Thanks,

Jason:
There are several different approaches to what you want to do. Let me just throw out a couple that I'm familiar with.
To get the new photos from your PB to your G5 and maintain any keywords, and other organization effort you put into them, you'll need the paid version of iPhoto Library Manager. It will allow you to merge libraries or copy between libraries and maintain the metadata, etc. That's the only way currently available to move photos from one library to another and keep the roll, keywords, comments, etc. with those photos. You can connect the two Macs with one in the Target Mode, probably your PB, and then run iPLM to move the photos to the G5 library.
Now there is a way to have a library on your PB that reflects the one on your G5 but is only a fraction of the size. That's to have an alias based library on your PB that uses the Originals folder as its source of source files. (My 25,600 files, 27G, are represented by an iPhoto Library folder of only 1.75G). When the PB is not connected with the G5, say with a LAN, it will have limited capabilities which are in part: you'll only be able to view the thumbnail files, be able to add comments, create, delete or move albums around, add keywords (but with some hassle-but it can be done). You can't do anything that requires moving thumbnails around, work with books, slideshows or calendars. Once the two computers are networked together again the library will act as normal.
Now while on the road you can have a "normal" library to import new full sized files, keyword them, add comments, etc. and then transfer to the G5 library. Once in the G5 library they will be represented in a roll(s) and corresponding folder in the Originals folder. You then fire up the "alias" library, and import those new folders in the G5 Originals folder.
It may be a lot of work but it may be one way of doing it.
I've not done any of the "sharing" with iPhoto so don't know if that's another possible candidate for transferring.
P.S. FWIW I've created this workflow for converting from a conventional library to an alias based one.

Advice for real performance of LV8.5 operate in the XP and Vista

Hi all
My company had purchased new computers for LabVIEW programming purpose.
We may install the LV8.5 in these computers but OS are not decided yet. Also, we have the current PC is only XP licensed
Therefore, can anyone give the advice for the real performance advantage of using :
LV8.5 with Vista over LV8.5 with XP
LV8.5 with Vista over LV7.1 with XP
LV7.1 with Vista over LV7.1 with XP
New computers detail:
Intel(R) Pentium(R)Dual-Core processor E2160
BCH-P111 -1.80GHz, 1MB L2 cache, 800MHz FSB
2GB RAM
Thanks
Best Regards
Steve So

The biggest issue I have seen with 8.5 Vista vs. XP is that if you leave Vista in the standard theme, the fonts have changed. I designed several front panels to have them be out of whack with XP. So if you are going to be using code across platforms, you need to keep in mind they will look different unless you use the XP theme in Vista, or customize your fonts to make sure they remain the same between the systems. The dialog font is a different size (13 on Vista vs. 11 on XP), and a different font (can't remember the difference). That was the big one I noticed.
8.5 over 7.1 is mostly going to be the learning curve to learn the new features. Overall, I have appreciated the changes, but there are some things (mostly development related) that I have seen run a little slower in 8.5 than in 7.1, but have not noticed any runtime issues as of yet. One big change between the versions is application building, which is more complex in 8+. I do appreciate the new features, though, but NIs project still hasn't rubbed me the right way yet.
NI doesn't support LV 7.1 with Vista. I have used it and haven't seen any problems, but that doesn't mean one won't pop up. If you're going to stay with 7.1, you better stay with XP. 8.5 is the first version NIs supports as Vista compatible. You will also have to use a relatively new set of device drivers, so if you have old hardware you are trying to use in your new system, make sure it is cimpatible with the latest drivers.
I have actually had more issues with other hardware drivers and software packages than I have with LabVIEW. TestStand is not yet supported in Vista, and i found out the hard way, one of the ways it is incompatible and had to move back to XP for devlopment.

1- The EU CCd is a paying company and the form is the same Z_REMITT_S used for the client's US company.
2- The ACH payment method is defined for the country. The medium is the payment medium workbench and the format is Z_SEPA_CT.
The US company uses the classic workbench and program RFFOUS_T for ACH.
3- In Define Payment Method for Company code, I hit a snag because Under Form Data, there is only the "Drawer on the Form" segment; the entire "Forms" segment where you'd select your script is missing.
Bottom line is How do I set up payment advice for ACH for a EU company paying EU vendors? (am I even asking the right question here?)

maybe OP want to extract all numbers from his inbox using regular expressions?

Automatic creation of remittance advice for employee expense reimbursements

Hello experts
Is there a way to have remittance advices for employee expense reimbursements created automatically at the time of payment media run? In case of suppliers, in the supplier base you can heck "Advice Required" and then at the time of media run the remittance advice can be generated alongwith the payment. Is there a similar setting that can be done for employees?
Thanks
Gopal

Hi
Just to follow on from Ravi's reply: most sites that I work at have the report RPRAPA00 scheduled to run on a periodic basis (define the job via transaction code SM36) to automatically create employee's vendor accounts. A screen variant is usually saved for the program, and then the batch session is monitored on a regular basis to ensure that it has run successfully.

I recently had a kernel panic in which I think my hard drive only had so much space left after I ran a bunch of drivers I thought I needed. I uninstalled all and moved files. For some odd reason I'm not getting sound of of my hdtv/monitor.HELP? I uninstalled all the drives and apps I download. I moived files either to trash if not needed, and others to other external drives. I went into disk utility and did a repair disk permission and verify disk. Clean out junk files. Now my hdtv/monitor does not give me any sound, nor does my mac mini. Can someone please tell me what to do?

Found the problem.
Paper size for those documents are actually A5 size.
Solve it by adjusting the Scale to paper size in the printing option to the size that our printer is set to printout
which in my case is 'Letter'
Hope this helps anyone who is encountering the same problem.
