There is a nice strategic map popping up when hitting NUM0 that displays all available units of your own as well as points of strategic relevance and discovered enemy troops. This is already nice from a tactical point of view, but I heard it is also possible to use this map to gain an advantage b...
It is possible to have units retreat to your base at any time. Retreating will cancel all negative effects as well as increase defense values and movement speed. However, the unit cannot be controlled until it reached the base via a more or less random path.
Failing to retreat a unit, especially...
Mines can be placed anywhere and cause heavy damage to any enemy moving over them. However, they are not free, and require resources and time to be set up.
Where and when should I lay down mines? The general idea should be to have them cover paths that are often crossed and places of strategic r...
In Starcraft 2 multiplayer, what does the following message mean?
"Player is slowing down the game"
I've seen this pop up a few times recently and didn't know if it was something intentional the other player was doing or something like net or frame lag.
I have installed and attempted to play the original Dungeon Siege on my Windows 7 64 bit computer.
The game runs, but it is horrible choppy and basically unplayable. Looking around it looks like it is a known issue.
Has anyone out there been able to get this game working in Win7 64bit? Or is ...
btw i'll be converting the design to css soon. i haven't seen any comments on meta. about it. but judging from the feedback here it seems most people are OK with it. (except for some font rendering issues)
if you don't scout banshees, you don't need stealth detection
this is a mistake most people make
You think to yourself: well he can go banshees so I need stealth detection, and he can go tanks so I need medivacs, and he can go BC so I need vikings...
I know I shouldn't try to built around everything, but it's just like leaving your base open against zerg as terran, your just waiting for them to kill your SCVs if you're not really fast on units
heh. I've been banging my head against a relational algebra problem for close to 5 hours. I am now convinced that I've made my life harder than necessary
Consider the tables Frequents(drinker, bar), Likes(drinker, beer), Sells(bar, beer), with obvious meanings. We say that a bar b is redundant if there exists a bar b1 such that (i) b1 sells all the beers that b sells, and (ii) All the drinkers that frequent b and like some beer that b sells, also frequent b1. Write a relational algebra query to find all redundant bars. Do not use the aggregate operator or joins.
Relational algebra, an offshoot of first-order logic (and of algebra of sets), deals with a set of finitary relations (see also relation (database)) which is closed under certain operators. These operators operate on one or more relations to yield a relation. Relational algebra is a part of computer science.
Introduction
Relational algebras received little attention until the publication of E.F. Codd's relational model of data in 1970. Codd proposed such an algebra as a basis for database query languages. (See "Implementations" below.)
Relational algebra is essentially equivalent in e...
I have to do this problem and then 5 more like it tomorrow, fit in class, birthday party, and prepare for my first class on wednesday. I'm scared poopless about teaching in front of 30 undergrads when I haven't even seen the syllabus for the class. Though on Wednesday, I get my Droid 2 at approximately 530 pm, which makes me happy.
well today (yesterday now) is (was) my birthday and tomorrow (today) is my friends b'day. We have two parties (I'm 4 beers down tonight and I was still pretty productive)
