A few days ago I uplaoded two projects on Sourceforge.net (world’s largest open source programs’ repository). They are LANSim and AG’s Library Manager.

LANSim

(Update: This has now been uploaded to Github – https://github.com/applegrew/lansim. Please download or fork it from there.)

This is a network simulator. This is meant to be user friendly as well as feature rich. This field lacks software with good user interface. Even the commercial softwares in this field is quite lame. This aimed to go along Multisim(R) and Blender(R) form.

AG’s Libray Manager

This a versatile library manager made in Java. It requires MySql at backend to store the database. This is not made to function only as a library manager but can be used in many places like CD rental shops etc. It has the feature to export the result to Microsoft Excel format. It can also import from there (but there isn’t any easy way to do so currently). The number of fields of information you want to store for your items can be customised by changing the MySQL table structure (Currently there isn’t any easy way to do so).

This is amazing. I actually forgot to post on my blog the Python script which I made for Blender. Get more insight into this script at http://blenderartists.org/forum/showthread.php?t=62821. Download the latest code from applegrew.pastebin.com.

To know what is this N-Queen problem is go here. My code can be complied using any ANSI complaint C++ compiler. I successfully compiled it using g++ and MS Visual C++ 6.0. I point I would like to mention is that when I ran this program for N=10 then it occupied 600kB when compiled using Visual C++ 6.0 and it took around 2300kB! I have to tried to keep memory requirement under check. It has respectable processing speed.

Get the code from applegrew.pastebin.com. For some reason the previous post of this code got deleted from pastebin. If you encounter such problem again then post a comment here. I will repost the code.
