2019-10-23 - Peace of mind
-------------------------------------------------------------------
I am looking for the peace of mind to read a book, to program a
bit, and to learn some. Because that'd be nice things to do.
However, i'm a bit restless...
But at least i'm in a good mood today. :)
I read a bit about memcpy today, a function in string.h to copy
blocks of memory. And although i've used the function in the past,
i had apparently forgotten about it, as i was copying some
characters into strings using a for loop in some of my code.
It's funny to notice i'm still a beginner when it comes to C. But
hey, it's a good opportunity to learn a little bit every day.
Also i learned about ANSI terminal control sequences, such as \x1b[H
and such... Gosh all the things you can do.
I wish i didn't had to work as much at my day job, so i could spend
some actual time and energy learning all of this. Now i'm just
casually dabbling a bit into programming in the evenings. Ah well,
at least i have a cool computer to do this stuff.
Also, here's a 'screenshot' of the little programming thing i'm
working on. It's a tiny little library to create ASCII canvasses
and blit stuff from one place to another. Isn't that cool? :P
