Note to myself

(February 20th, 2009)

In MySQL, the functions CURDATE() and NOW() is not the same thing.
CURDATE() does not return the current time (hours, minutes, seconds), witch NOW() does.

I have to thank myself for 1 hour of pretty unnecessary debugging! :)

#tweetcoding: 01 – First try

(February 19th, 2009)

This is my first attempt on the tweetcoding contest held by grant skinner… and I do have to say thats its very funny indeed :)

Note that this example does not fully use object ‘o’ for persistant data, yet. And to save place I also had to shortcut Math.cos (but hey, evertyhing is till in the 140 char span, sorry 139 chars)

if(!i)o.h=50+r()*50,g.clear(),v=.2,c=m.cos;//43 chars
ls(1,0,.4+c(i*v)*.6);//21 chars
(!i?mt:lt)(m.sin(i*v)*(i*v*.2),c(i*v)*o.h-i*.1+o.h);//52 chars
(i>o.h*.2*100)?i=0:i++;//23 chars

Compiled entry here.

More about the competition here.

If time allow, its possible that I will attempt to do a few variations before the final sumbit.
