The implementation of iterators in C# and its consequences (part 2) (3)
on
The Old New Thing (28) permalink
Now that you have the basic idea behind iterators under your belt, you can already answer some questions on iterator usage. Here's a scenario based on actual events: I have an iterator that is rather long and complicated, so I'd like to refactor it. For illustrative purposes, let's say that the enumerator counts from 1 to 100 twice. (In real life, of course, the iterator will not be this simple.) IEnumerable<int> CountTo100Twice() { int i; ...Contribute comment -
The implementation of iterators in C# and its consequences (part 1) (3)
onLike anonymous methods, iterators in C# are very complex syntactic sugar. You could do it all yourself (after all, you did have to do it all yourself in earlier versions of C#), but the compiler transformation makes for much greater convenience. The idea behind iterators is that they take a function with yield return statements (and possible some yield break statements) and convert it into a state machine. When you yield return, the state of ...Contribute comment

Supplementary reading on the subject of anonymous functions and other CLR topics (3)
onWelcome to CLR Week 2008. I'm going to mix it up and start with a link listing. Now that you understand C# anonymous functions, you will instantly understand Jared Parsons's caution regarding mixing using statements and anonymous functions. Other CLR topics: The CLR code generation team blog ponders To NGen or Not to NGen? Behind the Code interviews Patrick Dussud on the subject of garbage collection.

Parking lot wayfinding by means of giant, stereoscopic words that only line up when you're correctly positioned (64)
on
Boing Boing (2698) permalink
Axel Peemoeller's award-winning parking lot design has giant words that snap into focus when you stand (or drive) in the right position, providing strong orientation cues: "In Melbourne I developed a way-finding-system for the Eureka Tower Carpark. The distorted letters on the wall can be read perfectly when standing at the right position. This project won several international design awards."

The delete key is your friend. The less code you have, the less code you have understand, the faster the remaining code runs, and your builds will be done sooner. Omit needless junk, aggressively get rid of crap you don’t need, trash that “someday maybe this will be useful” stuff. The probability of a disk failure is directly proportional to the amount of code that you have checked out but not committed. (I really like ...Shared by chrishawn (3) tripp (0)Contribute comment -
