strange DB problem
ok thanks for that note, anyone knows about the cpu load problem? -
strange DB problem
Im having a strange problem here. When im reading from my db in my perl script, everything goes fine. However when I write to the db, the perl script goes from 1% CPU load to 60% CPU load, and stays there. This happens every now and then so not every time when writing to the db. What could cause... -
masking string
yeah that was the problem.. got it sorted now, thanks anyway! $length = length($answer); $lower= 0; $upper= $length; $hint = ""; for ($x=0;$x<$length;$x++){ $hint .= "*"; } for ($x=0;$x<($length/3);$x++){ $ran = int(rand( $upper-$lower+1 ) ) + $lower; substr($hint, $ran, 1) =... -

masking string
the generator works, it does have one argument. I used that in another chunk of code as well -
masking string
oops no sorry I forgot to rename that one for this post, I changed the variables to english for better reading. So that one should be $length -
masking string
i have written the following PHP function that masks a string with ***'s and then unveils 1/3 of its original letters to form a hint: $length = strlen($answer); $hint = ""; for ($x=0;$x<$length;$x++){ $hint .= "*"; } for ($x=0;$x<($length/3);$x++){ $ran = rand(0,$length-1); $hint[$ran] =... -
