Retour de Prologin x2

Et voilà. Dimanche dernier c’est conclu l’édition 2008 de Prologin qui fut également ma première participation à ce concours. Comment décrire ce long week-end ? 2 idées, je pense, suffisent : éprouvant physiquement et incroyablement fun (ha… et aussi, très diététique ).

That post isn’t a in-depth comparison of the two languages because it would require lot of time and, in the end, I don’t find that sort of thing particularly pertinent. It’s just a side-by-side presentation of the same script, written in both languages, assorted with my « it’s just my opinion »-type of comments.

Dia, un modéliseur UML simple et efficace

J’ai récemment (re)découvert Dia, un éditeur de diagramme sous Linux écrit avec le toolkit GTK. Il fait apparemment très bien les diagrammes classiques mais ce n’est pas pour ça que je l’utilise. En effet la particularité de la bestiole est de proposer un module pour faire de l’UML . Pour ceux qui ne connaissent [...]
