ACM Regional

Alsalam alikom wa ra7mat allah wa barakatoh

I'm writing this blog before traveling, ISA, to el kuwait to attend the ACM Regional Contest that will be held there....

I can't describe my feelings for the current moment but u can say they r a mix of enthusiasm and some joy.....
u know, mmmm i'm not really worried about it, this doesn't mean i'm sure we will get the first place ... but just cuz we will do our best to satisfy ourselves...
For me, i'm convinced we can get the first place, I saw the AUC team who traveled to the world finals last year... they were not Genius, they just have the experince to know what is right and when to do it ... this is the main difference between them and us... So i really believe we can manage .... Pray for us people ...

I know nobody, and i mean it, nobody will read this blog at least before the contest ... maybe later i'll release it for public but till now i didn't think about that ..... it's not a big matter to think in ....;)

I wish to give a lot Presents to my team (this term means to get YES from the first un-expected submission ;) ;) ;) widely used among ACMers ;) )

be ezn ellah we will do something u all will be proud of .....

As2alokom al do3a2.....
Astawde3kom allah alazee la tadee3 wada2e3oh..

Windows7 adds Math Input Panel

Alsalam alikom wa ra7mat Allah wa barakatoh… I was reading a windows team post about Input Panels improvements in Windows7 [ here ]. When at the end I saw a very interesting –intuitive if you wish- new thing… which is, as you guessed, the Math Input Panel… Yes, that crappy font is mine… I “drew” that by mouse as I don’t have a tablet pen/pc. You can then paste it directly into word and it’ll recognize it as an editable equation… During my tests, the output panel (the top part) hanged, but I liked that the drawing panel was still responsive and I could still write/erase… till the top one started to respond again… One other thing to know, after you click Insert (that button down there) it copies the equation in MathML [ Wikipedia link ] format.. which is a standard way of representing equations and hence any application that recognizes the format can insert it not as an image but as a nice editable equation… If you think it recognized something wrong, you can click “Sele

Visual Studio 2008 Not saving changes or project properties?

Alsalam alikom wa ra7mat Allah wa barakatoh (Peace upon you) I’ve recently ran into problems with VS 2008. Summarized here: When you try to edit the project properties (specially C++ projects) you are faced with a little nice message saying “Exception from HRESULT: 0xF9F0F308”. Sometimes when you are editing a file (specially large ones), VS doesn’t recognize you’ve made changes (ie doesn’t display that ‘*’ in the files tabs) hence, when you save, nothing actually gets saved. For those 2 problems, a friend explained the problem and a work around (till they officially release a fix)… Open up a Visual Studio 2008 Command Prompt Run cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE" Make a backup copy of devenv.exe in case something does not work right. ie. copy devenv.exe devenv.exe.bak Run editbin /largeaddressaware:no devenv.exe Happy VSing… :)
