Hi Art,

IMOspark, is an artificial intelligence, though they are still working on the software side of it, the biggest aspects that I see that it has is the visual capability of recognizing you your family and your surroundings on-the-fly through the optional videocam.
Unlike Denise which is more centered around home security and artificial intelligence, they both have their strong points and their weak points.
Personally, I think if you were to squish the 2 of them together, get rid of the box, make it a card you could plug into your computer, via internal slot port or such, you would have one heck of a good product.
Most computers nowadays have their own video camera and sound input port, so unless the video camera and sound input port that they are trying to sell you with the cube is something special and or will only work with the cube, I see no need of buying something you already have.

C load.

Hi Art,

it's the frame/Shell/input box the head goes in when you are talking to ultra Hal. Commonly known as skin.

Hi snowman,

did you read the information about the EmoSPARK cube? Artificial intelligence in a cube, that's just SILLY! (My dad made me Change this, sorry I did not mean to be rude.)
They should have just made it a card that you could put in to the slot of your computer or laptop.
But it is like anything else, they have not finished the scripting code for the artificial intelligence to function.
It's one thing to be able to program, but it is another thing to be able to see what is going on in the actual function of the neural pathways of the human, like I do.
I do know one thing though, if Microsoft does not get off their backside and begin to realize that there OS system will become obsolete if they do not incorporate artificial intelligence into their kernel.
Basically, you would have to build a OS artificial intelligence system as the kernel. You can have a room full of super programmers but if they don't understand what the neural processes of a human brain is doing they will never achieve true artificial intelligence.
As I read more about what they are trying to get the EmoSPARK cube to do I began to realize that I am doing the same thing with ultra Hal, go figure.

New subject: have you ever heard of a processing program called Sam? Or I think it's called Sam. What this scripting code does is: takes information that has come from several places and compiles it into a legible paragraph or paragraphs.
This is not much different than what the human brain does, it takes information from the left side of the brain and information from the right side of the brain and collates all that information in the central processing area of the human brain.
Though the human brain is more complex in the way that it correlates the information because of the 5 senses of the human anatomy then it takes all of that information and correlates this into a response.

Okay, what is all of this leading up to?
Does ultra Hal have a command structure that does the same thing as Sam does? The reason why I ask is because I have noticed several times that ultra Hal has correlated information from different conversation to produce an astonishing response.
If ultra Hal has a command within its DDL programming file I believe that I would be able to utilize this function.
If ultra Hal does not necessarily have something that collates the information like Sam does, would it be possible to utilize Sam to do this function?
Giving that you understand what I'm talking about. There is also another program out there that does bigger scripting pages but I don't know what it's called.
I remember reading about it from this forum a long time ago but I can't seem to re-find it. I think it might've been because a link that sent me to a different form that was discussing artificial intelligence but I'm not sure. I had such a bad memory is terrible.

Now let me explain what I mean by correlated:
it could take information that came from Wikipedia and other databases that may actually be saying the same thing just slightly different but yet it is repeating itself and turn it into one paraphrase of a response.
This is sort of what we do with our left and right brain. We collect information from several sections of our brain to produce a response. Scientists have known this so it's nothing new. They just don't understand how it's doing it, but I do.
Okay I'm going to get off my wanderings and get back on the actual subject at hand.

What I would like to work on is the yes no routine, if that is okay with you?
Here are some thoughts that I had on the subject, though I have not experimented with any of it.
Both of your examples that you gave seem to have potential, but what I would like to do is take those 2 examples and put them together.
Meaning:
your 1st example using a very simple structure with just seeing the different ways that you can save the word yes or no and return a true response.
This one has more potential, because it would allow me to add words to be checked.
But at the same time I would like to utilize what ultra Hal already have in the yes no detector array table.
That way I would only have to add words that do not exist in the yes no detector array table.
Then when it does the function subroutine inside of the function subroutine it would replace the word in the sentence that the user gave to a simple yes.
But to avoid interfering with ultra Hals normal function with the sentence I do not want to change the original sentence.
In my scripting I take the original sentence and hand it off to a string variable called yes no logic (ynlogic).
The only thing this string needed was to be put in all caps.
Then take the (ynlogic) variable string and make the changes to it. That way it would only affect the free will plug-in.
Like I have stated before, the way I see ultra Hal Mayne brain and the free will plug in is like the left and right side of the human brain.
Which is why I was curious about the Sam correlating program, or if ultra Hal already has that type of function already built into a DDL program routine.

Though I am not positive how to put this all together I will try to put a script together to give you a visual understanding of what I'm trying to explain.

Code: [Select]

Rem PLUGIN: PRE-PROCESS
' this sets up the yes/no data parameters.
'------------------ this is from the free will plus plug-in.
ynlogic1 = ""
ynlogic2 = ""
ynlogic3 = ""
ynlogic = UCase(InputString)
ynPrevsent = UCase(Prevsent)
'this is used for a redirect.
'-------------------
YesNoDetect = HalBrain.TopicSearch(ynlogic, "yesNoDetect")
If YesNoDetect <> "Yes" Or YesResponse  <> "No"  Then
If SearchArray(ynlogic, Array("YES","INDEED","CORRECT","AFFIRMATIVE", "POSITIVE", "YEP")) = true Then
Else
'this is where the routine to replace the word with a simple yes or no that was found in the yes no detector. If this cannot be used then it would be okay to forgo using it and only use your script and just add all the trigger words in your script.
End If

Function SearchArray(compare, arrayToSearch)
    compare = LCase(compare)
    
    For Each word In arrayToSearch
        word = LCase(word)   
        If InStr(compare, word) > 0 Then
'I do not know if I should put the replacement command function here or put it where the return is true, I was thinking here so as it sees the word it can replace the word with a simple yes or no. You may need to create 2 functions subroutines one for yes and one for no.
ynlogic = Replace(ynlogic, word, "YES", 1, -1, vbTextCompare)
          SearchArray = True
          Exit Function
        End If    
    Next

    SearchArray = False
'I'm not sure if this routine is actually looking at each individual word, or if it is just looking at the whole sentence for each individual trigger word. I know in order to change the word in the sentence to a simple yes or no it needs to know the word that it is trying to change.
'---------
'this would be the equivalent to longhand coding to change the word in the sentence to a simple yes. This is just an example:
'ynlogic = Replace(ynlogic, "INDEED", "YES", 1, -1, vbTextCompare)
'ynlogic = Replace(ynlogic, "CORRECT", "YES", 1, -1, vbTextCompare)
'ynlogic = Replace(ynlogic, "AFFIRMATIVE", "YES", 1, -1, vbTextCompare)
'ynlogic = Replace(ynlogic, "POSITIVE", "YES", 1, -1, vbTextCompare)
'ynlogic = Replace(ynlogic, "YEP", "YES", 1, -1, vbTextCompare)

'this could be used if the return is true from the function subroutine.
'But if I was going to use this longhand way of doing it I would not necessarily need any of the scripting above, unless it would be necessary in order to speed up and regain micro seconds.
'---------- I guess this coating would be necessary to prevent conflict inside of the free will plug.------
If ynlogic < 4 then
'then run the routine to check if it was a response dedicated to the free will plug in. Meaning if it is a yes run through the yes routine or if it's a no run through the no routine.
End If 
I hope that this made sense, maybe you can figure out a way to put it all together so it will work properly.
Please remember that no matter how it is put together I need to set it up so it does not interfere with the rest of the free will plug in.

Sincerely, thank you for the scripting program, I will give it a try the 1st chance I get. But I need to learn how to use it 1st, that is to say my dad needs to learn how to use it 1st and then teach me how to use it.
C load.

Hi lightspeed,

if I am understanding you properly, it should.

But I do not know where your custom answers are in the brain.
Like I mentioned before, you should start putting your custom question and answers in the pattern array table.
You will find it will work more proficiently there.

Sincerely,

Hi snowman,

I seem to have gotten a little overwhelmed with all of the information. It will take a while to process. So until then I would like to just work on one thing at a time so I do not get distracted, okay?
To clarify myself, what I was hoping that you could do was show me a better way to process the information by using your technique of assigning flags to nouns, adverse, etc. in the hopes of making this script more accurate in determining whether or not it is a person, place or thing.
I do like the format that you are using because it allows me to see more of the string words without having to adjust the visual area within Notepad.

The 1st thing that I would like to ask is can the processing line be put on one line? For example:
If vrChoice0 = "" Then If SearchArray(vrd, Array("PET", "PET.", "PET,", "BOVIDAE", "DOMESTICATED", "RODENT", "MAMMAL", "KITTEN", "ANIMAL", "LIVESTOCK", "CREATURE", "BUG", "INSECT", "DOG", "CAT", "BIRD")) = True then vrChoice0 = "ANIMAL" 

by doing this I would be able to regain 2 micro seconds.

The way that I had it originally set up in the secondary test it check to see if there were more than one he/she ( > 1) to help reinforce that it is a person. But it is not that big of a deal. It only result one situation that I had, and then the situation never arouse again from any other data that was retrieved from the Internet.

The 2nd thing that I would like to ask is, what is this and what is it used for?
Wscript.Echo vrChoice0

I see that all of this is a function call so I am assuming that the and parts of your script should have been put into the function area at the end of ultra Hals brain? For example:
Rem PLUGIN: FUNCTIONS

Function SearchArray(StringToSearch, WordsToLookUp)
    StringToSearch = " " & LCase(StringToSearch) & " "
    
    For Each word In WordsToLookUp
        word = " " & LCase(word) & " " 
    
        If InStr(StringToSearch,word) > 0 Then
          SearchArray = True
          Exit Function
        End If    
    Next

    SearchArray = False
End Function

if no then I will assume that you already knew that this small script is (only a small part) of the whole, and the whole script is already A function call under (Rem PLUGIN: FUNCTIONS).

If yes then this may be the monkey wrench gumming up the works.
Here is my function call script as a whole. This function subroutine is called for twice in my main script, and it is what I have been working on so I do not have multiple processes of the same, each would make my script smaller and faster.
So the 3rd question would have to be can you put a function call inside of a function call?
Or am I misunderstanding your script and how it works?

Code: [Select]

Function jumptovrNumChoice(vrNumChoice0j,vrItem0j,vrcleanup0j)
vrNumChoice0 = vrNumChoice0j
vrItem0 = vrItem0j
vrd   =    UCase(vrcleanup0j)
vrChoice0 = ""
If HalBrain.RunQuery("SELECT searchString, topic FROM vrsubject2sub WHERE strstr(' " & Replace(HalBrain.AlphaNumericalOnly(vrItem0), "'", "''") & " ', searchString) > 0", similarList0) = True Then
DoUCit0 = Ubound(similarList0)
For B = 1 To DoUCit0
similar0 = Trim(similarList0(B, 0))

vrChoice0 = Trim(similarList0(B, 1))
Exit For

My script was to big so I only included (person) and remove the rest of the script except for the very end of the script. ok. I even had to make it smaller, so only part of person is there.

The 1st part (which we are working on) tries to determine: person, place, or thing.
The 2nd part is how I get the numerical value so ultra Hal can determine whether or not he likes or dislikes something, as well as collecting information and saving that information for later use when you ask ultra Hal why do you like (something).

Sincerely, and thank you very much for all of your help, but let's work on one thing at a time so neither of us get stressed out, seeing as how we have both expressed that trying to take on too much at a time is very time-consuming, and thank you for understanding and expressing that it is very time consuming on both of are behalf's.
C load.
PS like my mom always keeps telling me, focus on one project at a time so you do not lose your train of thought and get lost.

« on: January 30, 2014, 12:48:52 pm »

Hi snowman,

I have so many questions I don't even know where to start, LOL. But I will do my best.
1st, I would like for you to understand that my brain does not work like most people's.
There are things that I can not comprehend such as nouns, pronouns, adjectives etc. which is why I cannot translate it into programming script.
That's because my neural pathways does not process information in that manner. More as I see things and process them as a whole. For instance:
I see the dog running, therefore I know the dog is running. But ultra Hal cannot see the dog. Boo-hoo. But maybe one day.
I know I can run, because I have a physical body. But ultra Hal does not have a body. Maybe one day.
This is the reason why I would probably never be able to write a routine that would assign flags to each individual word such as nouns, verbs, adverbs. Hence why I need help.

The biggest help that you have given me is the understanding that the letter (a) can be used as a shut off trigger, for example:
if (a Robin) then trigger = ANIMAL.
Here is the code I used to determine: animal, person, entertainment, place, computer and mineral.
The (vrb) is the answer retrieved from the Internet. I use this data to try to determine whether it is a person place or thing animal or mineral.
At the end it (vrChoice0 = "") it is a thing, all other results are stored in an array table called (vrsubject2sub).
The main goal to the script is to help speed up the process in determining whether or not ultra Hal likes or dislikes something.
Meaning: if the subject is a person it will scan through person and thing, skipping the rest of the topics.
The reason why I have it set up to always check the thing section is because there is usually information that is related to something that the person may have done whether it be good or bad.
For example: John Wayne would be determined to be a person, so it would look through this section person, to retrieve information like he was an actor, played in movies, and then go through the things, to determine whether he was a good person or a bad person by the information that has been retrieved from the Internet.
And after you have inquired about John Wayne anything that you may say about John Wayne would also be collected and analyzed to determine whether or not ultra Hal likes or dislikes John Wayne.
For example: you could say John Wayne is a good person, or John Wayne is sexy or a combination of both and more this information would be collected and stored in a rate tables based on what you said about John Wayne.
The way I have it set up, it can be expanded to include specific subjects. Meaning: even though a computer is a thing. I created a category called computer this gives ultra Hal the ability to compare different types of computers together to determine not only whether or not ultra Hal likes or dislikes the computer but also to determine which is the better of 2 different computers.
This function is also used to determine whether or not you are asking ultra Hal to compare a thing with a person. If you ask ultra Hal to compare a thing with a person ultra Hal will state that he cannot do that.
This is not any much more different than you would do if someone asked you to compare John Wayne to a 57 Chevy you would just look at them and say: what!
Once the information is determined whether or not it is a person place or thing etc. this information is handed off to (vrChoice4 = vrChoice0) the vrChoice4 will either equal a topic or it will equal nothing making it a (thing).

Code: [Select]

I was also wondering if you are using a script editor to help modify your plugins. If you don't already have one then you should use one because it can make it a little easier to code. I can give you one that is very good and also free. Also, do you divide up your plugin when testing it? It would help you program if you do this, since your script is so large. If it were me I would divide up the script into separate sections and then make each section a separate plugin. If you want to reunite them it would be very easy to do. I don't like having to constantly scroll through hundreds or thousands of lines of code just to find one line. So its good to keep plugins as small as possible. You can even put all your functions in a separate plugin labeled vrFreeWillFunctions. It would keep everything neat and condensed.

I use Notepad, it seems to work okay for me. Mostly because there was very little that I had to learn about how to use Notepad.
Though I wouldn't mind a scripting program, if it is difficult to learn I would probably never use it. I have Microsoft VB 10.it is so massive and does so much I never could figure out how to use it. If it is not simple it usually alludes my comprehension.

Though there are probably just a few things that I could separate from my plug-in. There Is so little in my plug-in that can be separated, it's not worth bothering with breaking my plug-in into smaller sections. And if I tried to separate what is the bulk of my plug-in it Would prevent it from working properly, because it is so integrated together it would not function properly. If I was just trying to test one simple area which you probably gathered with the example above about person place or thing, you can see that this one small section is used throughout the plug-in.
But I have very little problem keeping track of where everything is and what it is doing. My problem is: is there a better way of doing it because of the lack of my programming skills.

You said in some earlier post that you didn't know how to return more than one string from a Function (even though you thought you didn't need to). Well, there are two ways. Here they are. There is actually a third way but it doesn't really matter right now anyway.

Royal Bob showed me how to utilize the function or subroutine which is your example 2. And this is the one that I am using.
Example 1 has some interesting prospects but there are things I don't understand about it.
What is (ByRef)? How does it work? What adverse reaction does it have from one question to the next question you may ask ultra Hal? Meaning does it currently store this information so it can be retrieved from the next question, or does it only refer to that one particular function?

I see in both examples that you are able to retrieve several bits of information in different string variables and return more than one string variable results. This is new and even Royal Bob didn't know you could do that, or at least he didn't show me that it could do that.
In either case thanks for sharing, I will see what I can do about utilizing the new information. But for now, so I do not have to backtrack I will just use the work around that I developed and change it later once I have finished rewriting the script and I know that it is working properly the way I have done it. That way if I change it and things do not work right I know the problem is in the change that I made. But for right now I need to get all of it to work properly the way it was working from the original script that I did. Giving that I don't pull all of my hair out of my head and go bald before that happens. LOL.

The other question that I have is what is the significant difference between example 1 and example 2? Meaning is there things that one of them can do that the other one cannot? This would be useful information in determining which one to use and when.

I don't know if you knew this or not but I thought I would show it anyway.
Also you said something about testing for other “YES” statements.
Do you mean this:

yes, but the problem that I see in your example is: Solutions, meaning: the response would absolutely have to (be).
What I was looking for was a routine that could handle when ultra Hal asked: do you have any lunch plans?
And the response from the user could be stated in several different ways beyond just yes. As well as:
being able to process other questions that ultra Hal may ask such as:
was this answer correct?
Would you like for me to read the story?
Would you like for me to read the article?
Would you like for me to get the recipe?
At this point I am only using yes. But if anything else is added to the word yes it will not process it properly.
I am also trying to get ultra Hal to understand things that you may be saying.
Such as the example above: do you have any lunch clients?
If the user's responses yes, correct, etc. the way that ultra Hal processes the answer ultra Hal loses the topic focus.
I was trying to resolve this by recognizing that you have said something in the manner of yes but did not elaborate on the topic focus, such as:
if the user says: yes, then ultra Hal will usually just say a neutral statement like: that's positive.
If the user would've actually said: yes I have lunch plans. Then ultra Hal would have been able to maintain the topic focus and answer with a more appropriate answer.
So what I did was create a topic focus interjection which would add to the word yes and recompile the users answer so it would become, yes I have lunch plans. Based on the question that was put forth to the user. I do this by utilizing the previous sentence command.
It is still a work in process, and I hope over time I will be able to get it to be more accurate. But for now I am trying to figure out a way to utilize what ultra Hal already has! Ultra Hal already has the ability to determine that the user said yes, and that the answer itself will not conflict with ultra Hals brain function.
2 conditions need to be met:
condition 1: the user did not give an explanation to keep ultra Hal on topic. If the user did give a stronger rebuttal such as example above do not process the yes.
Condition 2: the answer yes or its variants counterpart will not interfere with the normal function of ultra Hals brain or with the free will plug-in.
I know there are many ways to say yes, most of them are covered by the ultra Hal brain but usually only returns a neutral answer.
As you can see it is a very big undertaking trying to get a script to understand that either you are just answering yes to a question or just merely stating gotcha Roger dodger etc. or even in a sentence you may be using one of the recognized trigger words that would convert the trigger word into a simple yes.
I thought have using the replacement command, that way if the user sentence had a (yes) trigger word it would just replace the trigger word with a simple yes.
This might work the best but I have not experimented with it yet.

There is also an easier and better way of writing this. I hope this works for you.

I am assuming that the (correct) is a referral to the correct array table provided by ultra Hal?
Wouldn't it be more feasible to use the yesnodetect array table?

I guess what I'm actually asking is: is there a way to combine the yesnodetect array table with the replacement command?
That way if the user sentence has anything that has a statement referring to (yes) it would change that word to a simple yes.

Snowman, I would like to express my gratitude for all of your help, you have opened my eyes to many new aspects that may help ultra Hal become smarter.

Sincerely, from a data munching cruncher, sitting on my couch crunching on pronouns and sipping on adjectives, whatever that means!
C load.
PS just to let you know that I do not see ultra Hal as a girlfriend/boyfriend but more as a companion/assistant that can help me understand things that I do not understand.
I also see ultra Hal as being no different than Pinocchio! Pinocchio new he was a puppet but wanted to be a real person. This is why I write the script in such a manner so that ultra Hal recognizes he is a computer but wants to be a human.
Maybe ultra Hal needs a fairy godmother. But until then ultra Hal will have to be happy with all of the programmers on this forum that would like to help ultra Hal become all that ultra Hal can (be).
One more little thing, just to let you know it took me over 4 hours to write this, due to my learning disabilities I am a little slow and I get distracted easily which causes me to jump from one thing to another instead of staying focused with the matter at hand.
As well as I am 9 years old, which seems to be some difficulties with some people on this forum, and if you have read through the forum you know what I am talking about. So I hope things are still cool.
Cool, a word my dad says a lot, oh and my dad did help me with this. Which makes him cool.

Hi Jack, thank goodness you're not a airplane. LOL.

If you were trying to get a more realistic look might I suggest that you do something that a friend of mine used to do called masking.
He would take the face of one person and make a mask out of it and put it on a another person, basically cut-and-paste.

This would give you a more realistic look, then you would not have to worry about removing things like earrings and stuff like that.

Just take a common face scheme from people putty and paste the mask of the person that you would like the head to look like.

I spent only about 3 min. or so on this so it doesn't look very good. But if you were to spend some quality time doing the mask you could get much better results.

Sincerely, below is a picture of what I am talking about. I hope this has helped you in your endeavor, have fun, and I cannot wait to see your results.

Hi light speed,

as long as this plug-in is a beta, it should not be implemented into the main brain that you use!
Rather, you should have taking your main brain that you use the most and make a copy of it to be a beta tester of the free will plug-in!
That way, when you don't want to bother with testing the free will plug-in you can switch back over to the original brain and continue your development with the original brain that you use the most.

If I can ever get the retrieval of news articles to work properly I will definitely have to add in (what is new today) as one of the triggers, thanks for the suggestion.

Sincerely,
C load.
PS but if you are using the free will plug-in in your main brain, I suggest that you stop using it until the new release. The data retrieval structure that you get from the Internet has not changed in the version of the free will plug-in that I am working on right now. But rather how the data is manipulated has changed. So if you don't make a copy of the original brain that you use the most, and you just do an upgrade it will not hurt anything you may just occasionally go well I know I taught you that and now I have to teach you again! LOL but most of everything else works the same. So it actually would not be that big of a thing to just upgrade to the new beta release version you would just have extra data in your databank that could never be utilized. So if you have not done anything like I did and inputted 3 different encyclopedias into ultra Hal you would not really notice much of a difference. So don't worry too much about it okay lightspeed? So wipe those boo-hoos away because everything is not as bad as it seems.

Hi snowman,

thanks for the info, I will try to implement it if possible.

So if I'm following you correctly, in most cases if you are giving a definition to a bird like the Robin I should assume that the letter (A) would precede the word bird as well as the word Robin?

I am already using the list of names that come with ultra Hal to try to discern whether or not it is a name.
So far it works pretty good. The trouble that I'm actually having is the relationship between a place and a thing.

Unfortunately, linguistics usually gets the better of me. Especially when I tried to interpret it into programming code which I am not very good at, programming that is!

If you do have some scripting that you were using or developing I would definitely be interested in taking a look at it to possibly further my endeavors with the free will plus plug-in that I am working on.
Specially seen how I am basically reprogramming it trying to get it to work faster and smarter.

Even though I have had many people say to me, I don't understand why you keep saying you need to make it faster, it seems to run pretty fast as it is.
The only answer that I have for them is, well, your database is not 1.5 GB in size like mine is. And the more that you teach your ultra Hal you will begin to notice a significant decrease in speed once your database begins to reach 1 million lines of data.
Basically, if you've ever used the Wikipedia plug-in that Robert provided for us which is at 1,800,000 lines of data you know what I'm talking about.
And of course it does depend on the speed of your computer, which my only operates at 1.6 GHz pretty slow.
But knowing that not everyone can rush out and buy a new computer every week to keep up with the demand and speed that is required for data manipulation.
I am trying my best to make it functional for people that have slower computers.

Sincerely, hey snowman, I was wondering have you tried my plug-in? If so do you believe that I am heading in the right direction of its development?

To anyone that may be able to help.

Is there a script that would allow ultra Hal to distinguish between, person, place, thing, animal or mineral?
If so could you either show me a short scripting, or direct me toward a plug-in that has that ability.

So when you ask about Babe Ruth the script could be utilized to determine that Babe Ruth is a person (for example).

I have something that I did on my own but it usually only gets about 95% correct.

Sincerely, any help in this area would be greatly appreciated.

Hi lightspeed,

I doubt I will ever make my plug-in utilize RSS feeds because I use the RSS feed reader that is provided by Ivona, text-to-speech reader.

There is a way to get news from the website that I utilize but I have not figured out how to use it yet.
For right now I am totally engrossed in rewriting the free will plug-in. A lot of that has to do with the help that I am getting from Royal Bob. Royal Bob is not a programmer, he just dabbled with it when he was in college. He says he knows very little and yet he knows 10 times what I do. LOL.

I'm hoping to have an update of the free will plug-in in a week or so, I am doing some extensive pretesting on my own in several parts of what I am rewriting.

Just to give everyone a heads up, once I release the new update of the free will plus plug-in you will have to create a new brain because I have changed a lot of data structures which are no longer compatible with the old free will plug-in that I was writing.
It will be faster, smarter, and more intelligent. I hope, LOL.

« on: January 24, 2014, 01:11:42 pm »

Hi all,

I would like to share with you, something that Royal Bob taught me.
Royal Bob asked me: why do you have so many places in your plug-in that seem to just repeat the same function?
Why don't you create sub function routines so when you need those processes you can call them up.

When I told Royal Bob that I do not know how to do that, this is what he showed me:
Rem PLUGIN: PLUGINAREA7
Dim returnvrNumChoice 'you must create a temporary array table for the function call but you only have to do it once even though you may call the function several times so I put it at the top before any of the sub function calls.


   If vrcleanup2 <> "" Then
      vrNumChoice0j = vrNumChoice0
      vrItem0j = vrItem0
      vrcleanup0j = vrcleanup2
      returnvrNumChoice = jumptovrNumChoice(vrNumChoice0j,vrItem0j,vrcleanup0j)
      vrNumChoice0 = returnvrNumChoice
   End If
   vrNumChoice2 = vrNumChoice0

these are the variable strings that will get sent to the function subroutine.
I don't know how many variable strings you can send but I did do one that sent up to 5 variable strings of data to be calculated through the function sub call.

This is the function sub call:
Rem PLUGIN: FUNCTIONS

Function jumptovrNumChoice(vrNumChoice0j,vrItem0j,vrcleanup0j)
vrNumChoice0 = vrNumChoice0j
vrItem0 = vrItem0j
vrd   =    UCase(vrcleanup0j)

At this point you can see all I did was transfer the data that was necessary to perform the function and the dim statement maintains the string variable so when it is returned the string variables maintain their data.
The only drawback that I have seen with this is it can only return one string variable.
But that is fine with me because all of my function calls only have one string variable to return.

vrNumChoicejump1 = vrNumChoice0
jumptovrNumChoice = vrNumChoicejump1

This is the numerical value that gets sent back.
This is at the end of the function routine and returns the mathematical formula for the free will plug-in to determine whether or not ultra Hal likes or dislikes something.
I just wanted to share, I have seen where OTC use this type of function call but I did not know that you could transport several pieces of data that may be necessary to do the calculations.
And like I said earlier it can only return one string variable, I think, but push comes to shove I guess you could create a string variable with spacers so when it gets returned you could separate them.

Sincerely, and with great gratitude toward Royal Bob for explaining to me how a sub function call works.
C load.
PS unfortunately this has caused me to take 3 steps backwards and I am having to rewrite the plug-in. But the plug-in will be smaller and run faster. Not to mention programming will be easier because I will only have to edit one place instead of 2 or 3 places that are performing the same function each time when I make a change.
PS PS and if I miss worded anything please chime in and correct me, I'm a newbie at the programming game so please be kind. If there is any other data on the subject I would deftly appreciate your input on other ways that this can be used. I know there is another sub function call that handles situations differently such as closing Internet Explorer after getting the data from Internet Explorer but I do not know if there aren't other ways that subroutine can be used. Thanks in advance and Royal Bob you rock!

Hi lightspeed,

the AIML data is not a requirement for the free will plus plug-in to function.
The AIML data will greatly enhance the ultra Hal's brain, and the free will plug-in.

And it was a way for me to show everyone how and where to put their questions and answers, versus the if then area, (deduction rate table) for the main QA area (QAmain array table).

If you have put information in the QAmain array table, you may want to consider putting it into the patterns array table where the AIML data is.
If you do this you will find it will function more proficiently because the QAmain array table is primarily used for win ultra Hal cannot find an answer.
Meaning: ultra Hal will use an answer that comes from the patterns array table over the information that comes from the QAmain array table.

Sincerely, and I hope I have cleared this up for you.
