About Alex Barry
Expertise
I have been a qbasic programmer since 2000, creating games, minor libraries and various small programs. I have experience using interrupts, graphics, file input/output, the mouse cursor, and using libraries. I have also learned FreeBASIC, c/c++, python, php and html.
I do not claim to be an absolute authority in any language, but I don't mind looking things up and learning with you.

Experience
Hobby programming since 2000

I no longer belong to any community programming groups, but do have knowledge of *basic dialect and C/C++

Topic: Qbasic, Quickbasic



Expert: Alex Barry
Date: 2/28/2008
Subject: A Trillion Problems

Question
How would I go about labeling 27 trillion, yes 27 trillion, different individual bits of data, each with a random # 1-10,368,000.  Ex. Cel1, Cel2, Cel3, Cel4... without doing this for each and every one?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  And this is not for homework, but a project of mine in which I am Way over my head!

Answer
Hi, Joseph,

I hate to burst your bubble but QBasic would not be the language to use for this, not to mention that to label 27 trillion bits of data would take a rather long time.  May I ask the purpose of this?  Perhaps if I knew the goal of labelling these bits of data, we might be able to figure something out,


Take care,
Alex
