I couldn't remember 'homophone'.... it has been far to many years since I was in school and what I used to call items is no longer used... thank you for the term.

I made a middle school teacher mad one day when I told him I could speak a sentence out loud that he could not write on the chalkboard. He took me up on the challenge, and I spoke a word and he wrote it, until....
(Background: in English we have to, too, and two, all pronounced the same, each with a different meaning.)
The sentence is: There are three [twos, or toos, or tos] in the English language.
He stopped after writing three on the board, and then got mad saying I hadn't picked a definitive subject.
I said thank you. That was my point.

Wait until they add while and for and if clauses. Now that will put a grin on your face!

Indeed it will... the example of used with my wife was: Which would you like for breakfast, cereal or pancakes?
My wife's response was, "That's easy in your world!"

Hi All,
I know of the no programming questions in the lounge, but what is the difference between MFC & MVC?
I am thinking I need to update my skills as they only apply to Win forms, what and how to update them is the question I would like answered... SORRY!
|
|

Wow ... long way to go!
MFC = Microsoft Foundation Classes, an API that made Windows Programming easier than plain Win32 code when I was little and helped me earn my authority rep points here. That was a long time ago, not sure if MFC still exists.
MVC = Model View Controller. That is one of many way to organize your SW architecture, but a good one.

Oookay! so does that mean what I know about Windows programming is still of use? Can you recomend article on MVC, I understood it was a completely different way to program....
|
|
|
|

You misread my post : There is absolutely no relations between MVC and MFC, but for the fact that it relies to programming.
|
|
|
|
|
Oh, sorry I though that MVC had replaced Win Forms, sorry looks like I will be googling!
|

Not even close. MVC is a buzzword compliant architecture for web development. WPF/Metro/Win8/Win10/WindowsStore/Modern/WteTheyCallItTomorrow style apps are the intended WinForm replacement and use something called the MVVM (model, view, view model) architecture.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I liked it, and found it far more easy than having to deal with all the messaging thing.

An ... API then.

They have nothing in common except they are programming related acronyms.

Wow, great minds come together (see my other post).
