FractionCalc 1.0

Post by Snocrash »

I created a simple fraction calculator if anyone is interested. You can download the code here:

https://bitbucket.org/brianotto/fractioncalc (Apache 2.0 License)

My background has been with PHP / MySQL / SVN for the last 13 years, with a bit of C and C# in hobby projects over the years. This app was really just an exercise to start learning Mercurial, and to try out PureBasic. I've been looking for a new language to learn in my spare time, and PureBasic has turned out to be quite nice to work with. The Form Designer has a few quirks, but otherwise it's been great!

I love that it's a native compiler that supports so many operating systems, produces optimized code and tiny executable sizes, and it's been so easy to pick up the syntax too. Also, looking around these forums, it looks like you guys have a great community around here! Lots of people helping each other, and some great code has been posted. Anyway, been a pleasure so far, and it looks like I will be sticking with it and trying out some more complex projects soon.

Cheers!

Might be a 'combo box' choice that was the closest thing.
In the description & the source code - it's purebasic.

Yea, that's correct. It was the closest option they had. The source code is written in PureBasic.

Yes, I knew it was PureBasic.

It's a shame, power gets the credit.

They now have PureBasic added as an option. :)
