Source code

[kataklinger]

Including other configuration files like makefiles, ...

[crc]

The actual sourcecode for the minimal build of my OS is 1,237 lines; the extra drivers add another 60 lines, and the editor is about 15 lines. The makefile is 20 lines. And 65 lines for the optional serial console. So it's a total of 1,397 lines at the moment. It could be shrunk to under 1,000 lines if I squeezed out blank lines and comments.

I expect it to grow to 2,500-3,000 lines once I've implemented everything I want.

Hm .... currently, my task control block management code alone contains ca 1200 lines of code.

the amount of lines is gonna raising as development continues.

Hmm... for all that I have worked on Pro-POS' design for over two years, and spent quite some time in working on the PDCLib, my "accountable" lines amount to a measly 5000 or so, including gratuitious commenting.

With regards to the PDCLib, that will change as soon as my tower recovers from a long-standing illness (called Windows). Working on a 640x240 PDA with 1/2 keyboard and no compiler hampers coding productivity a bit.

51602 lines in "*.c","*.h"
2461 lines of makefiles (including copy/pasted makefiles, templates and commands for DOS/linux/cygwin configurations)

1032 lines of CodeMonkey plugins and IDL files

35090 lines of tools

Hi,

Here's the line counts for the current rewrite of my OS (which is roughly 99.98% NASM and a few make files). These line counts don't include blank lines (generated via "cat -b *"):

2216 for include files
17657 for kernel
31119 for mixed boot/configuration code
21619 for regional database source files
748 for DOS utilities (written specifically for the OS)
184 source for generating boot images

73543 TOTAL source

Then there's 3340 lines of html documentation, plus the source code from the previous version of the OS which will be "ported" to the new version (GUI, CLI, PS/2 keyboard & mouse driver, user interface code, virtual filesystem code, floppy driver, serial port driver, etc)...


Cheers,

Brendan

Lines in ASM is a bit shorter then lines in C.. Couldn?t we count the size of the source/binarys instead?

[Solar]

10 lines of working ASM bring as much fame as 10 lines of working C. ;D

Actually, the question as it is now asks for the number of line numbers. I haven't used line numbers since GWBasic, which was a long long time ago. My OS code thus doesn't have line numbers

[Dreamsmith]

How many line numbers does your source code have?

HA! I didn't even notice that. I'm afraid I have to change my answer to zero -- I haven't used line numbers since my days of coding in Applesoft BASIC.

Good eye, Candy. The rest of us were asleep at the keyboard...

number of line numbers

and there you lost me... ???

If the question is "How many line numbers...?", the answer should be the number of line numbers. Consider:

Code: Select all

5 REM Simple Eliza
10 PRINT "How are you?"
20 INPUT A$: PRINT
30 PRINT "Why do you feel " + A$ + "?"
40 INPUT A$
    : PRINT
50 GOTO 30

The above code has 7 lines, but only 6 line numbers (5, 10, 20, 30, 40, & 50).

are u sure that is what he?s asking? sound wierd..
anyway, my current version of Notepad don?t support line numbering..
a guess should be a couple of thusands, i don?t think i am over 10.000 yet..

I don't think it's what he meant to ask, but it is what he did ask.

Actually, it does. You just type the line number at the start of the line. Note that the "line number" has nothing to do with which line of the source code it is. Consider:

Code: Select all

12 REM Another example
39 PRINT "Hello, world."
81 PRINT "How are you doing?"
117 INPUT A$
118 PRINT "That's nice."
2842 END

No editor support is required, indeed, how would the editor have any idea what the line number of a line is, if you didn't enter it in? The "line number" has nothing to do with the line's position in a file. Think of it as a numeric label, although it's a bit more than that -- it also determined execution order.

For real fun, have your line numbers out of order! (They'll execute in numeric order, least to greatest, but there's no requirement that they be ordered that way in a source text file -- lines can be entered in any order.) Enter and execute this into a BASIC interpretter:

Code: Select all

20 PRINT "A"
40 PRINT "B"
10 PRINT "C"
30 END

The output of this program will be:

Code: Select all

C
A

BASIC -- gotta love it...

[bubach]

yeah, yeah... u know what i meant didn?t you?
(PS: i know old basic, i am not _that_ young )
