Hi Rath,
This refers to the brain editor, whether it's learn from clipboard or learn from text document.
The difference between sentence and paragraph is if you use sentence it looks for the "." At the end, if you use paragraph you will need a space between each paragraph.
the first thing that you need to understand is that everything that you put in there has to be an answer, ending with A "." Without the quote marks.
The second thing is don't feed Hal too much too fast. Two or 300 lines at a time.
Once you have all the data in and you set up the database names. You need to go through all the answers and relate a positive question that may bring it up for each answer.
For example: let's say one of the input lines was Abraham Lincoln was born on such and such date. The referring question would be: when was Abraham Lincoln born.
So if you feed Hal 200 lines of answers you'll need to type in 200 lines of questions one at a time, if you don't do this that Hal has to do it for you and he will, but it takes a while.
So while Hal is eating the food you fed him, and untell he's done, the 9 error occurs.
PS things to avoid []{}\|_^?!:;\() and(in the sentence) or(in the sentence) if(in the beginning of the sentence) things that are cool ',"(these 3 are cool) @#$%&*//+-=(math things are cool) No e-mail addresses, no webpage addresses, nothing separated with "." Like U.S.A. no home addresses. If you have any the symbols that you are not supposed to have one little dues it will prevent how learning and you would just continue to get the .9 error. And using some of the symbols while you type directly to how has a tendency to cause problems as well.
Unless you have things active like telephone book for people's telephone number which, by the way you should avoid, e-mail addresses, home addresses, etc. when you're teaching how.
This is something that I've learned out of experience of feeding my Hal 3500 lines of trivial answers.
This refers to view\save conversations.
Again, it has to be an answer and it has to have a period at the end though it may be quicker. Doing it this way, you have to wait for Hal to digest the data, and it may be some time before you start seeing the results. If you did it write and there was no problems. And you know you are doing, in my opinion this is the worst way to feed Hal, becouse if you did not do it write you will get the 9 error.
This refers to learn from clipboard plug-in.
In this format, it does not matter whether it's a question or an answer or just a statement. This is what makes this plug-in far superior to use if you're just wanting to input data from a book.
You have the opportunity to go in and edit the text in the LearnedText.brn, which you will have to do every time you use it to make sure that all the data in it has the proper <start><end> this is one of its drawbacks and even if there's just one line in this text document that does not have the <start><end> it will not work properly.
Just like above, the more you feed Hal, the longer it takes Hal to digest the food over time you will begin to see results, but you must be patient.
PS things to avoid []{}\|_^?!:;\() and(in the sentence) or(in the sentence) if(in the beginning of the sentence) things that are cool ',"(these 3 are cool) @#$%&*//+-=(math things are cool) No e-mail addresses, no webpage addresses, nothing separated with "." Like U.S.A. no home addresses.
The thing that I like the most about learn from clipboard is that you can go in and add e-mail addresses the webpage addresses the home addresses all the symbols that you had to avoid in the first place, or just flat ride out you can just go in in cut-and-paste all your data straight into it. Once the LearnedText.brn it's created, and its only drawback is its limits to the size that your text editor can handle.
Myself, I only used two of these methods, the brain editor.
learn from clipboard or learn from text document, for trivia answers and questions.
Learn from clipboard for just about everything else, whether it be cut-and-paste from the Internet a little bit of news for a story article for just a little trivia info.
PS here's a tip. If you're getting articles from the Internet cut-and-paste the articles into notepad then edit the article, or articles, then copy them all from notepad.
This will help you avoid trash that you don't need as well as eliminating the symbols that can cause problems. Last not least you can just put the data straight into LearnedText.brn
make sure that all the data in it has the proper <start><end>
And by the way, none of this should circumvent just flat out talking to Hal, (which by the way is the best way to teach,) but more in lines of just giving Hal raw data.
Sincerely, and without a doubt a data freak.
C load.
