Google I/O 2009 - How Do I Code Thee? Let Me Count the Ways

[DartGreene]

A chunk of code for making phone calls, it seems complicated.

[Aaronfretwell1]

it is two long

[justme92able]

nice speech i really learned things from it!!

[CydiaForYou]

*CHOUGH* Mac *COUGH*

Reported Attack Page! Go and fuck yourself.

[3D3NN3D3]

Fatt bum bum!

[Masowai]

Is this guy's voice cracking up because he's nervous or is the audio warbling? I assume it is the audio.

I'm soooo annoyed.

[ytkarpdm]

it is really worth watching it. Great stuff and fine presentation.

thanx

[nickbee123athotmail]

Whats this got to do with the price of bacon ???

[healingwell]

Interesting but he doesn't refer to much easier ways of developing Android apps for web developers, like Appcelerator

[cyberrobbe]

@healingwell it is easier, but it doesn't provide the full set of features and its still, slow, appcelerator will always focus apple/iphone os. just look at the KitchenThink stuff, half the features shown there are not available on android.

[Superharas]

@healingwell AppCelerator isn't a real way of coding. It uses the Android SDK, to convert HTML into Native Android Code(Dalvik). Using AppCelerator isn't coding for Android, you're just coding in HTML.

Hmmm...are you sure Yahoo gives a different answer? I just put in -2^3 and received -8

[DewiBrad]

He didn't include brackets.

[scottwong426]

Follow up with google suck, I meant when you tried to do exponents with a negative number it gives you the wrong sign. Tried putting -2^4, the answer should be 16, google gives the answer -16. Tried this with other negative numbers, and you get a wrong answer. A negative number to a odd number is always a negative number, but a negative number to a postive number is always a postive number.

[Krylez]

@scottwong426 Try using parentheses.

[kengeddesjr]

@scottwong426 Look at a table of operator precedence. ^ has a higher precedence than -. So the ^ is done first, yielding 16. Then the - is applied, yielding -16.

[scottwong426]

Google , My ass. Talking about coding, they can't even do simple math. For example, when you tried to put in -2^3 on the browser it gives you negative -8. Tried squaring any negative numbers, it gives you a incorrect answer with the negative. Try it with Yahoo and it work perfectly.

[superpaco1]

google owned youtube.

so googletech can upload very long vid then 10 minute.

I envy gooletech.

[banw0005]

well to be fair, many partners have this option as well so its not google-specific

[hdzsound]

lol

first, youtube is own by google so they could have make it as long as they wanted.

second, some channel are youtube partner, and they can post longer video than normal, user and they get paid by youtube, by ads.

[Ltkshaka]

google owns youtube so they can do anything they want

[zakurai250]

@Janttux Lol I just noticed lol XD

[Dorinus2]

you know official video' ;) google pay's them :)) you don't ..

Google 1 - 0 You

[astro2191]

this is absolutely an awesome subject

[lifemichael]

Many of the video clips you take... their sound volume isn't high enough.. sometimes turning up the volume on my end doesn't help... please turn up the volume...

[bornkool]

Great Video can a person with little or no programing experience learn to write Android code, in other words is their hope for me. lol

[formfuncfab]

You'd need to learn to program in java. You can learn that online free. Then download the anroid sdk. You can get that on their site. It's all well documented. That's enough to get you started, because it's quite in depth. It can be overwhelming for some while, but if you stick wtih it, you can learn. Think of a little app you want to write for it, and start with basic core functionality. I also would like you google to please raise the volume, if possible. Thanks.

^^ wojo

[espeed623]

I'm interested in starting developing for Android, and creating a custom OS based off of Android for an NVidia Tegra based device built for gaming.

[twoboxen]

looks good... let's get that OpenGL / Audio support going in the NDK!

[gunnarMyTube]

Great presentation and engaged/engaging speaker.

[prxi]

I'm pretty excited about the idea of using native code with my android applications. Especially for some of the more complex algorithms that will be required for games :)
