is there a smart way to read a file to a certain string
bit by bit ?
which loop to use?
Similian: you can read it byte by byte.
Similian: do you want to read the whole thing?
no
too big 200 MB
reading bit by bit is usually not supported by most
operating systems
Similian: then do you want to read one byte at a time?
or one line at a time?
guess a line would be better
simcop2387-lab: it is on my rindolfOS running on Intel
1001.
Which was a 1-bit processor.
heh
I had a half-bit processor
it just stored ones
ik: that would be a zero-bit processor then
no no
half-bit processor stores 0's or sqrt(2)'s
sqrt(2) may as well be 1
rindolf: a 1 bit processor would be a hell of a thing
to work with
not if you can't test it unless it's one
We're not talking about numbers, we're talking about on
and off, true and false, whatever you want to call it
sqrt(2) is nonzero, so it's one.
danieldg: not 1/sqrt(2)?
hmm it would probably be that, yes
my proc uses sqrt[-1]!
may as well
ik: think quantum computers. It tests true with
probability 1/sqrt(2)
I'm not talking about a quantum computer..
well a 1/2 bit computer clearly can't be classical
