(I didn't produce the VB6 Portable. Considering I have a license, I use it as a utility at school.)
So it has to display all of them? That takes longer then writing a file

hm, I still haven't managed to get an MS Windows binary compiled, but I have been able to get a run time for 100 Million.
left an 848MB out.txt file... :)Quote:
[james@Deamon ProgChall]$ time ./count.bin
real 0m42.290s

EDIT: - ran 8m54.171s for 1,000,000,000
I'm impressed...
EDIT2: - Finally got a windows binary compiled. yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!
Email being sent in the next few minutes.
ok, comp is closing today, any entries not recived by tonight (9PM GMT) will not be counted,
Last chance to get your entries in.
I'm pondering if I should do it or not... because your 9PM is a lot different for me (6AM)
Can you send confirmation e-mail to those who sent you stuff? I only ask this because gmail does not like sending binaries:mad:, so I sent it in a 7zip archive last night.
that would be a good idea (may for future contests though ;) )
What I did to send all the files (including *.exe files) is zipping all the files just as you normally would do, and then change the extension to something else. I believe I changed it to*.zap for this competition.
All the receiving person has to do is changing the extension back to the original.
I think that would be the most easy way to send *.exe (or other prohibited) files via gmail...
Hmm, in that case I would most definately like to know if my mail actually was sent.
When I tried to send an *.exe file I got a message that for safety things... bla bla... could not send message.
Same thing happened when I zipped the files (*.zip)
but with the extension changed to *.zap I got no message telling me it was not safe or anything...
[edit]: Sent myself an email to confirm what I just said: Message pops up only with *.exe and *.zip. NOT with *.zap.
Also, when I changed the extension of the received file (at an other email account) back to *.zip it worked as it was supposed to work, I could read the zipped files...
maybe they had a change in policy?
OK, I don't know if you managed to get my submission before my server fell over... I'll email them in an archive if you haven't got them, just let me know.
