Back to Linux

I have been using Windows on my main computer for some time now in order to be able to try out different C# stuff. However, despite Visual Studio being a real nice IDE I think Linux gives a better overall development experience.

To still be able to try out different C# stuff I have switched to Linux and installed .NET core and the Visual Studio Code IDE. Of course .NET core lacks a lot of functionality available in the complete .NET framework and Visual Studio Code is much less powerfull than the full fledged version. Still so far it feels sufficient for the tests I am writing outside of working hours. And it feels good to be back in Linux :).

  1. Låter ju intressant! Min föräldraledighet går mot sitt slut (början av mars), men jag vet inte var jag hamnar än. Men en lunch borde vi väl kunna få till, eller?!?
    Har du något tips på hur man kommer igång med C#, vore kul att kika på.

  2. Tjo! När börjar du jobba igen, och var?
    Komma igång med C#, hmm hmm, bäst är ju att göra något riktigt. Du skulle kunna börja med att följa en enkel tutorial - typ den här https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd492171.aspx - och få miljön på plats.

C# Enum as bit field

Bit field enum Whenever you wish to express combinations of properties of an object, bit fields are a good way to accomplish this. As a simple example, consider a file in the file system. It can be Readable , Writable , Hidden or a combination these. The different attributes can be defined as an enum : [Flags] public enum FileAttribute {   None      = 0b0000;   Readable  = 0b0001;   Writeable = 0b0010;   Hidden    = 0b0100; } To indicate that this enum is expected to be used as a bit field I have defined it with the FlagsAttribute . It is important to understand that the FlagsAttribute does nothing more than making some changes to how the ToString method of the enum works, making it possible to print out all flags. It does not introduce any validation or special treatment of the enum in any other way. I have defined the values of the different fields of the enum using binary representation, this should make it even more clear that this is a bit field and which bi

Codility tasks - Part I

I was recently faced with two codility tasks when applying for a job as an Embedded Software Engineer. For those of you who arn't familiar with Codility you can check out their website here:  www.codility.com Task one - Dominator The first task was called Dominator. The goal was to, given a std::vector of integers, find an integer that occurs in more than half of the positions in the vector. If no dominator was found -1 should be returned. My approach was to loop through the vector from the first to the last element, using a std::map to count the number of occurences of each integer. If the count ever reached above half the size of the vector I stopped and returned that integer and if I reached the end without finding a dominator I returned -1. So was that a good approach? Well, the reviewer at the company rated the solution as 'pretty ok'. His preferred solution was store the first integer in the array and set a counter to 1. Then loop through the remaining i
