Programming & Design - October 2006

I understand that a programming language converts command into binary that the computer can understand, and that one binary number represents one bit and since 8 bits is a byte that makes one character, but what I don't understand is how does the proccessor understand binary in the first place? How does the computer when you get down to it, understand what to do when you just say, on off on on off... etc.

Aloha,
Okay, so I have this script working:
http://www.triviacafe.com/stamps/fonttest-working.php

However, there are a FEW things I need help with.

1) I need it to use a multiline box, instead of an input box.
a) I need the GD Exported image to MIRROR that of the typed text. So line breaks MUST appear where they are in the multiline box.
Example:
GD Output:
This is a
Test

Content in the Multiline box:
____________________________________
|This is a
|Test
|
|
|
|
|____________________________________

b) Each individual line must be centered.
That means calculating the width of the font (which will be variable, detemined by a dropdown box, I'll add that in myself) and dividing it by half of something or other... I don't understand the math, I'm a designer. That's why I'm here.

If anyone can help me, without just spouting a bunch of numbers at me and expecting me to understand, I would greatly appreciate it.

If you need to email me, my addy is jon [at] phazm dot net

I need to write a simple scanner for ASCII files. The scanner should recognize (find) three kinds of tokens in the input file: strings of spaces, single new lines, and words (a word is defined as any sequence of characters not including spaces or new lines).

Everything in the input file can be broken down into sequences/tokens of one of these three types.

I'm need to write a driver (main() function) that repeatedly calls a function called getToken(). getToken reads the next token in the input file, and returns to main() the token type, and the actual string (lexeme) of the token.

For each call to getToken() (for each token returned), main outputs the token type (a unique integer is OK to represent the type), and the string (except for new lines – this causes problems). main also outputs the position in the input file for each token: the line number and the char position on the line of the beginning of the token

The logic overwhelms me and I can't think it through. Help!
