Simple CGI Hit Counter

Sunday, May 10th, 2009

If you need a simple cgi hit counter, you can use the script written by John Collins, this is popular web stats using PERL CGI, the code is open source and you can rewrite it for personal purpose, the code is available here http://www.akamarketing.com/simple-hit-counter-with-perl.html

The script consist of:

  1. counter.cgi - the actual Perl hit counter script, to be placed in the cgi-bin of your web site.
  2. count.dat - a plain-text file that will store the count value, also in the cgi-bin.
  3. counter demo.shtml - the HTML page that will call the script.

Hopefully it will be useful for your website.

Mac Game: Quarters

Thursday, April 2nd, 2009

Tedd’s Quarters v 1.04

tedd’s Quarters v 1.04 ITA

Quarters is a Freeware program and is free to download subject to normal and customary Freeware restrictions

Mac Games Quarters Game

Quarters
The original Quarter game deals with the selection of coins from three piles of coins. Each player selects coins in turn and the person left with a single coin to choose loses!

I learned this game several years ago and finally turned it into a program, namely “Quarters”. The program has elements of artificial intelligence and follows a “rule-based” AI algorithm. In other words, it plays the game as I do ( tedd ) — except it doesn’t make mistakes. I think that you’ll find it hard to beat!

After learning the rules, the beauty of the game is that it can be played anywhere with twelve coins. While, the strategy of winning the game is complex, it follows some very simple rules — which you may be able to derive from playing the program. If you can’t, however, I can provide the solution, for $5. Please see details under “The Secret” button.

Or, you can make payment for “The Secret” by simply paying $5 via:

After which, I will be notified that you paid and I will in turn email you “The Secret”.

In any event, Quarters an intriguing game! I’ve enjoyed it for years, as I hope you will.

Algorithms Book

Thursday, March 19th, 2009

I found Algorithms by Cormen et al a very fascinating book filled with an in depth study of computational algorithms. The editorial review by Amazon.com says:

If you had to buy just one text on algorithms, Introduction to Algorithms is a magnificent choice. The book begins by considering the mathematical foundations of the analysis of algorithms and maintains this mathematical rigor throughout the work. The tools developed in these opening sections are then applied to sorting, data structures, graphs, and a variety of selected algorithms including computational geometry, string algorithms, parallel models of computation, fast Fourier transforms (FFTs), and more.

This books strength lies in its encyclopedic range, clear exposition, and powerful analysis.

Pseudo-code explanation of the algorithms coupled with proof of their accuracy makes this book a great resource on the basic tools used to analyze the performance of algorithms.

From Book News, Inc. , October 1, 1990. Both rigorous and complete, this introduction covers traditional material and modern developments: elementary data structures, sorting graph algorithms and NP-completeness are included along with material on Fibonacci heaps, parallel algorithms, network flow algorithms, computational geometry, and number-theoretic algorithms. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
