Some instructions on how to use fullpage.js to scroll between sections in your web page. I am not a web developer, so this post will contain a minimum of javascripting, css styling and so on. I just wanted to see how fullpage.js can be incorporated so that individual web pages can be scrolled horizontally in an animated way. Step 1: Download fullpage.js Fullpage.js javascript can be downloaded from here: https://alvarotrigo.com/fullPage/ This will download a file called fullPage.js-master.zip. Once the zip file has been downloaded, extract it somewhere. Step 2: Create folder structures for your web page(s) I have created a folder called 'FullPage' containing the subfolders 'html' and 'resources' in which the HTML file(s) and style sheets/javascripts will be contained respectively: Step 3: Install the necessary styling and resources. In the 'resources' folder create a further two subfolders 'css' and 'javascript'...

This post tackles the problem of applying the 2-opt algorithm to travelling salesman problems in Java. The results of applying the 2-opt heuristic and applying it to a number standard traveling salesman test problems. are shown For a more in-depth description of the 2-opt heuristic, please refer to the following Wiki page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2-opt The actual 2-opt heuristic can be summarised by the following pseudocode steps, repeating for all feasible combinations of I and k: [code language="xml"] 1. take route[1] to route[i-1] and add them in order to new_route 2. take route[i] to route[k] and add them in reverse order to new_route 3. take route[k+1] to end and add them in order to new_route 4. return the new_route; [/code] A nearest neighbour search algorithm is included in the Java implementation. A comparison is made of the kind of results we get from the 2-opt algorithms, with and without improving the initial tour using the nearest n...

Step 1: Run the Inno Setup installer When using Inno Setup within Visual Studio project as a post-build exercise to create an installer package, you will need the contents of the Inno Setup folder as this will contain the command line executables, dll files etc. If you have not already done this, you can get it from here: http://www.jrsoftware.org/ Step 2: Create a new Visual Studio project Right click on the solution and select to add a new Installer project (class library) 3.

In Windows Explorer copy the existing Inno Setup folder contents to the one you created in your Visual Studio project. Once the contents are copied over I then right-click the...

A similar post on using the Gecko browser via WPF can be found here: https://www.technical-recipes.com/2017/using-the-gecko-web-browser-in-wpf/ In this post I extend these ideas a little so that the Gecko web browser, a WinForms control, can be used as part of the MVVM pattern. Some other modifications are necessary, such as incorporating ICommand implementations, and supervisor controlling patterns to get this thing running. Step 1: Create a new WPF project Create using a suitably recent version of .NET. In this example I use version 4.5.2. Step 2: Install NuGet packages Install Gecko. In my example I install the Windows 32-bit version. Select Tools > NuGet Package Manager > Package Manager Console Run the following command: [code language="text"] Install-Package Geckofx45 [/code] Install System.Windows.Interactivity Select Tools > NuGet Package Manager > Package Manager Console Run the following command: [code language="text...
