Methinks it is like a weasel

It would seem that the most common form of these programs are java applets, and there was one particularly good approach here that sparked my attention. Im not familiar with java, however. Any ideas on how I might go about putting this sort of a language into C++ or VB?

Numsgil:
The most difficult part is the string manipulation.  How familiar are you with string manipulation in VB or C++?

asterixx:
Well, I guess I'm quite familiar, although compared to many other people, including many people on this forum(which is why I'm asking here   ) my programming experience is somewhat limited. So really, I don't know how familiar I am with string manipulation. I've written several programs that are capable of perhaps even more complicated code then a Weasel Program might require. What I'm really asking I guess, is what would the core mechanics of a weasel program be? The algorithm seems simple enough but turning it into a program is proving more difficult than I thought.

P.S. Id like to take this opportunity to extend my thanks to all of the people on this forum who have helped me with various things. When I first started experimenting with DB, and read this forum I had a sense that you would all be very helpful. but I didn't think you'd be willing to help a somewhat 'complete stranger' in the way you have. The kindness and decency here are going to make future versions of DB even more successful, Im certain.
 

Numsgil:
Try to get started and plunk down some code.  When you get stuck, post what your code is and I'll try to give you some help.  Often times it's bets to just jump right in and start coding when you get stuck.

VB is much easier for string manipulation.

you can download for free Microsoft Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition

its a programming environment for VB. Takes a long time to download and install but well worth it.
