When I do commit, I write up the title of what I did, and describe it, and then use periods for related commits. Just easier.

For small projects, rewriting is often superb. It allows us to reorganize a mess, apply new knowledge, add neat features and doodads, etc.

This. I’m coding to contribute to a open-source software with very small amount of coders, and with a non-mainstream Domain-Specific Language. A lot of the code I did before has been proven to work from times to time, but they all could benefit from better outputs and better GUI. So, I end up reengineering the entire and that’ll take a really long time, however, I do a lot of tests to ensure it works.

I been meaning to learn Ruby to get around using Python. I like Ruby syntax better.

Chances are there’s probably something similar to dictionary in Python in your languages or at least it’s a import/#include away. Although I don’t use general programming languages at all, in my used language (G’MIC), I do something like dict$var=input where $var is a defined variable, and this way I can access input by doing ${dict$var} and that’s similar to Python dictionary. In C++, there’s hash table implementation out there via github. That being said, there are sometimes when you don’t need a hashtable dependent on the hashmap, and sometimes, it’s just as simple as basic mathematics to access data.

Seems like a good idea, I’m hoping that the syntax is sane. As far as languages goes, I think you’re missing out on G’MIC to compare as it does have things like FFT and other tools all for image processing which is just part of digital signal processing. And then, there’s Python with libraries and so on.

I only stick with these:

• pull
• add
• commit
• push

Easy.

For raster graphics image processing, I’d highly recommend G’MIC. Otherwise, Python and especially for string using regex library. I wish there was a vector graphics version of G’MIC.
