Some of you asked for it. Here’s something to get you started:

These instructions are a work in progress and alpha. However, they do get the basics working.

If you are so inclined, have a look at the NMakefile (you’ll come across it in the instructions) and give me a better way to build it.

I spent probably 8 hours getting a working environment (much yak shaving including a faulty mac book pro DVD drive). I then spent another 8 – 10 hours getting this working. I worked through it about 5 times to minimize the amount of changes I needed to make to the original library source.

I ended up using some link and pre-processor seams to get most of this built. However, most of my time was spent trying to figure out the command line tools and their options.

If you can give me some guidance on improving this, I’d like to hear it. However, this is now a low-burning thread, so some assembly required!

Enjoy,

The title says it all. I was bothered by a few things in the Shunting Yard Algorithm (actually many more things), but I felt compelled to fix two of those things.

So if you have a look at the album, you’ll notice 2 more videos:

• Video 5 of 4: Remove the need for spaces between tokens.
• Video 6 of 4: Remove duplication of operators in algorithm and tokenizer.

Hope these are interesting or at least entertaining.

Several people asked for them, so here is a series of 4 videos. The first series on the RPN calculator in Java was a bit rough, these are even rougher.

Even so, hope you find them valuable.
