Well recently JS has been giving me some trouble, My current obstacle is a translator that replaces letters in the alphabet to create a simple form of encryption. My problem is that I have a numeric based system that I call Alphabetical Numeric Codec, whenever I invoke L3 of the encryption it treats A as 1, I am deeply confused, here was my first theory:

L3 is a level that transforms the letters into numbers, so, perhaps when A gets transformed it turns into numbers, and then perhaps when numbers get transformed it the encoded A into an encoded 1. I am still rather confused though, because when I deleted the number conversion units the letter A turned into something that was not even specified within the JS function.

I am going to be doing experiments shortly to try and find the problem

Update:

AHA! It turns out my invoking methods were doing two functions at once! Thus making my original theory semi-correct, in that is it, turning the letters into numbers into letters. It also explains a problem I was having with an invoke method, L4 would not even commence! Happy coding all whom can understand this

Another Update:

Here:

if (SI2 == 2)
{
if (L == 1)
{
Invoke (”translate3″, 0);
}
if (L == 2)
{
Invoke (”translate4″, 0);
}

if (L == 3)
{
Invoke (”dd”, 0);
}
if (L == 3)
{
Invoke (”translate6″, 0);
}
}

that was my invoke function, if you look closer..

if (L == 3)
{
Invoke (”dd”, 0);
}
if (L == 3)
{
Invoke (”translate6″, 0);
}

You will see that when L = 3 it invoked both dd, and translate 6, I discovered this while pouring over my code to do testing.

this also explains why when L = 4 it was not invoking translate 6.

As I said happy coding! (sorry Aubrey, but your saying is too good not to be stolen )

After months of neglect to this site I have decided to use it for something other than file storage. In fact, I wish to start blogging again! My interests have changed greatly, as you will soon see (not that anyone is reading this ); as I will be posting over the weeks ahead. If anyone IS still here (which I will be awestruck if anyone is), do feel free to leave a comment. I also hope to improve my writing skill

Fractals
By Geo Larsnick

Have you ever looked at a math book and thought, “This is boring?” Have you ever looked at an art book and thought, “This is interesting!” Would it surprise you to know that art and mathematics are closely related? That’s right, art and math come together in fractals.

But, what is a fractal? Fractals are complex mathematical equations that take geometric shape. They are vibrant, encompassing every color of the spectrum visible to our eyes. Imagine a series of triangles that repeat endlessly, constantly decreasing. This is one of the properties of a fractal, known as self-similarity. The repetition of the pattern is directed by the mathematical equation. So every equation will produce a different fractal. They can be simple or complex but all are artful representations of math.

Yet, fractals aren’t just pieces of abstract art or only for the mathematicians. No, we can see fractals in our every day life. They are hiding right under our noses, we just don’t realize what we are seeing. Ferns are fractals. Trees are fractals. The fruit we eat contains fractals. Even human beings! Every thing on the planet is a fractal—it can all be expressed mathematically. Fractals are a portal to seeing the world differently; math becomes art and art becomes math, and both are hardly boring.

Thank you everybody, for leaving comments. I’m sorry if I haven’t responded to everyone, but I’m reading them. It’s just that sometimes I get busy and it all clogs up–my mom calls that a back-log. So, responding to them all is hard. I do appreciate your input. Please keep commenting.

You know, macs are pretty good. Macs are fast, quite equipped, more useful than most other computers.

As great as the mac is, sometimes I have problems with it. In GarageBand (my music making program) for some reason I wasn’t able to control the timing of my tracks at all with my mouse. I also don’t like it when I have a computer freeze. Another thing, which is specific to my computer, is that I’m out of hard drive space.

All of these flaws are really my fault, not the computer’s fault. Two were because I rarely turn off my computer and one because I kept working on my computer. All in all, the mac is a great computer.
