5 Questions re DB opns

Numsgil:
It's all a matter of practice.  I'd start off a new programmer on some task that isn't directly related to the engine, some small little piece.  They'd learn a bit about the program in the process, and try for something larger.

When I started programming, I just added a few commands and sysvars, and PY checked over my work when I emailed it to him.  I'm thinking this would work the same way.

Ulciscor:
Well I'm well eager to have a go, what could I do??

Numsgil:
OOh, yay!

Here's a good task:  I want to make sure that the stack is working right.  Endy was saying something about how the stack was behaving screwy in a recent post.  (I'll have to find it).

Using Visual Basic in debug mode, check to see if the stack is working properly.  That includes removing values, giving 0 if there are no legit values, dropping off older terms as the stack gets too large, adding values properly, etc.

All the code is contained in the module "DNA Execution".

Numsgil:
Here's his post.

Numsgil:
Also, this sounds alot up your alley:

Improved snapshot function.

I'm trying to pick things that won't interphere with porting the code to C++.
