So what is everyone thinking of using for this? Language/IDE(or no IDE)/system/keyboard/whatever?
I'm using my dual-display 32-bit vista system, one screen for code, the other for more code, and analysis of problems/input/output, plus my good old aluminium clipboard for my doodelings to help me visualize solutions. I'm likely to use Sun's Java, with the latest Netbeans release. If I feel the problem is "really easy" I'll probably bust out notepad++ and write it in VBA (or similar). I was debating using a C-based language [c, c++, or any variants] but decided to stick with Java. I would prefer to use VIM but I feel it isn't worthwhile to install on windows... it just feels dirty. I'm using a good old IBM Model-M keyboard circa 1988. Best keyboard in the planet. I highly recommend the Model-M to all programmers that can type fast -- if you can, get a USB model-m (won't be IBM made), just for compatability sake. I'm going to be drinking Jamaican Blue Mountain instant coffee, and Tazo Green Tea, instead of energy drinks. And snacking on some scoop chips + dip. My SVN server esploded, so I'll be doing source management via "file- >save as..." =/ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "google-codejam" group.
