  • PHP: Dynamic inclusion tutorial

    I’m posting this because I thought that it might help some people who want to structurize their website in a way that they can easily edit pages which contain contents and pages which contain the code of the layout, as we separate layout code from contents in dynamic inclusion.

    This is for PHP beginners, but I assume that you have basic knowledge about PHP variables and form submission methods if you would read this tutorial.

  • CyStats Template Functions / Template Tags

    I used to use the WordPress plugin Counterize II to keep track of my blog’s statistics, but then I felt that I had to switch into something else. I looked for another feature-rich stats plugin but one that is faster and that will take up less database space. After trying different plugins, I chose to stick with CyStats.

    The only thing I needed but didn’t get (right away) from CyStats is the code to insert into my themes in order to call functions to return values like the total number of hits, total number of comments, total number of posts, and such. Maybe there’s a web page lying around in the Internet and I simply did not search thoroughly that I wasn’t able to find it. And since I didn’t find it, I’m making my own list of template tags (template functions) here, hoping that it would help other users.

    By the way, I got all these from the template-functions.php which is inside the /includes folder of the plugin. I’m putting a list here just to make our task easier. 😀

  • Assembly Language: a simple shop/store program

    A small program I made a year ago in Turbo Assembler.

    tasm shop assembly language

    It’s a shop displaying four items, each item having 9 stocks. The user is first prompted for which item he/she wishes to buy, for the quantity of the purchase, and if he wants to buy again. The program closes once the shop runs out of stock.

  • Assembly Language: check if a one-digit input number is odd or even

    assembly programming odd even number

    I coded this back when I was taking up Computer System Organization. It was a homework that I decided to share in my old blog.

    The program accepts a one-digit number as the input, and then shows whether that number is ODD or EVEN.

    The program uses the attribute byte to highlight ODD or EVEN with a color.

  • CCNA 2 Powerpoint Slides (Routing Protocols and Concepts 4.0)

    If you’re looking for course materials that you can install for offline viewing, click here to check the CCNA Exploration 4.0 Curriculum / Course Material installers, for offline viewing. They have more explanations that these PPT slides.

    Taking up CCNA 2 (Cisco Certified Network Associate – Routing Protocols and Concepts) ? These Powerpoint slides might help you in your study. They are not actually the course materials that you will be able to view as a student. They are the materials being used by instructors. I prefer reviewing using these because they are simpler. And no, no. This ain’t cheatsco. lol.

    The following .zip file contains the 11 chapters for CCNA 2.

  • Modern Database Management 8th Edition (PDF E-book and PPT)

    When I took up my Database Management Systems course in my second year in college, I used Modern Database Management 8th Edition (by Jeffrey A. Hoffer, Mary B. Prescott, and Fred R. McFadden) as my reference. I used the e-book and Powerpoint presentations to review for exams, and I’m sharing the following files with you:

    Powerpoint slides – Modern Database Management 8th Edition

      Modern Database Management 8th Edition (In MediaFire) (unknown, 1,261 hits)

    E-book (.PDF)- Modern Database Management 8th Edition

      Modern Database Management 8th Edition – PPT (Chapters 1-12) (unknown, 1,147 hits)

    I hope that helps. 🙂
