You said: "You shouldn't get hung up on this "reporting %"; it's a totally artificial construct you have to maintain yourself. If your process is indeterminate, it is totally useless."
I only care about it because Microsoft has forced us to. This is exactly why forcing us into a percent scheme rather than allowing the user to implement how the user handles the data (integer) passed to BackgroundWorker::ReportProgress(int), and raising the "RunWorkerCompleted" event when the "percent" is at or over 100 is a really stupid design on the part of Microsoft. In addition to the problems already mentioned, I have to use BackgroundWorker::ReportProgress(int, object) to pass an integer higher than (or equal to) 100 in order to prevent the "complete" event from being invoked.

% is usefull if your "UI" is a progress bar.
Besides being able to pass a "state" object INTO the BGW process (which could have its own "%"), and TO progress and completed events; as well as being able to access "shared properties", "% reporting" is a "bell and whistle" and not a limitation.
That's why I said not to get hung up on it.

If it was just a "bell and whistle" as you say, then using it versus the state object would be optional. There would be an overload for just sending a state object. I find it annoying to have to worry about an unused parameter and how it could screw up someone's program if they aren't careful. If you disagree then that is your prerogative. Functionally it works fine, so I will use it; I just try to make my shared classes as versatile to different use cases as possible; I am a bit surprised, (and annoyed because that is my prerogative), that Microsoft didn't do the same here; especially when their own documentation says that it is up to the user to do something with the data.

It is "optional". You seem to think it somehow controls the event processing; it doesn't. 0, 100, nada makes no difference.
Depending what "examples" one finds, one "assumes" one is more significant than the other (state object vs % vs BOTH vs NONE) based on the code emphasis. You just happended to be focused on the "%" ones.
Belt, suspenders or both?

Actually it does make a difference. If I send an integer >= 100 as the percentProgress parameter to BackgroundWorker.ReportProgress, then the BackgroundWorker.RunWorkerCompleted event fires even if the DoWork callback is not completed. I tested this before I even started this thread to find out what happens when I send a number greater than 100 (because the documentation implies that the number should not be greater than 100).

I'll take your word for it.
I found no use for it; since few processes I deal with are "determinate".
"Exiting" based on a calculation seems like a bad day.
(The value sounds more like an "input" to a progress bar (i.e. the "ui" part of "reporting progress"); the usual assumption).

hello, i want to promote the student one class to another class, by using what field to update automatically the student promotion to the next class and next year.can you give some ideas.

No, because we have no idea what your code or data organisation looks like.
What you've asked is like phoning a travel agent at random, saying "I want to upgrade my hotel room" and putting the phone down. The travel agent doesn't know who you are, which hotel you are supposed to be staying at, when you are staying, or even what country the hotel is in!
Remember that we can't see your screen, access your HDD, or read your mind - we only get exactly what you type to work with. And at the moment, we don't have anything at all ...
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Use the "promotion transaction".

First, promotion is a 'process' which means you must write a method that changes some data (for you to figure out) in an existing instance (a student) to represent that.
Second 'automatically' means that something must trigger that method. Up to you to figure out what that means but it could one of the following
1. A method, which really does nothing but call the first method above
2. A timer that runs at some periodic basis which then calls the above method.
3. Some other method, for example something like 'determine final grade' could call the first method above.

Hi Friends,
I want to calculate the distance between the HD Camera (industrial grade, small tiny one 16mm 1/2" 5MP) There are few formulas that I had found in the net. But not sure which to use.
Can someone suggest the correct formula to calculate the correct distance between the camera and the object. (preferable with the angle of inclination)
Thanks (in advance) for the help
Regards,
Dorairaju

Well without some frame of reference you can't.
|
|

If you don't have to details on the lens being used by the camera, it's impossible to calculate. You also need to calibrate the system with known points in the image. How accurate you get is also dependent on the object you're measuring distance to. You're not going to get an accurate distance to the center of a ball in the image.
Also, the accuracy is going to be rather poor if you're only using one camera and nothing else.

Place reference objects / lines in the "frame".
Wonder why there is a "ruler" on the side of doors leading in / out of banks?
Or the "lines on the road" used to measure speed / distance over time (from above).

my projects link button not work in iphone 6s but desktop work properly why?
|
|
|
|

???? What? Sorry, but what has this got to do with C#? Is it code related? If so, what code do you have? Remember that we can't see your screen, so you have to give us a lot more detail than this if you want us to be able to help you.

Because there's a secret bug in your secret code.
Seriously, how do you expect anybody to be able to help you based on the complete lack of information you've provided?

You may be surprised to know that an iPhone 6 and a Desktop are actually different devices.

Hello,
I would like to validate strings to datetime format using regex please
modified 15-Nov-17 6:00am.

Not with regular expressions! 
Use DateTime.TryParseExact[^] to validate the string against your required format.
However, there's a small problem. Your "valid" string doesn't actually match the format you're validating against. Your format requires the letter "T" between the date and time, but neither of your strings have that.
string input = "2017-09-19T08:04:31.123";
DateTime parsedDate;
bool isValid = DateTime.TryParseExact(input,
"yyyy-MM-ddThh:mm:ss.fff",
CultureInfo.InvariantCulture,
DateTimeStyles.AssumeUniversal,
out parsedDate);
"These people looked deep within my soul and assigned me a number based on the order in which I joined."
- Homer

|
|
|
|
DateTime dt = DateTime.ParseExact(input, "yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss.fff", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
|
|
|
|
|
In practice, you would wrap a call to DateTime.ParseExact in a try/catch block ... because it will throw an error if it fails.

Better to use TryParseExact, which won't.

I am actively looking for the best library that will allow assessing the multiple values, based on weights (preferable as int instead of double from 10,000 - 120,000).
I was looking into many different examples but each one of them is either operating on linear functions or using double.
Let say I will have 4 columns:
Column A, Column B, Column C, Column D
120, 3, 3.23, false
84, 12, 2.12, false,
22, 3, 2.1, true
Which AI C# library could assess the output based on weights (column A weight from (10k to 120k depending on the int))
I am kinda stuck here.  Looking for a way to start with this, even with simpler example (so just with two columns like column 120 = 10k, 84 = 11k, 22 = 23k, column b = 0.3, 1.2, 0.3)).
I will greatly appreciate any direction just to get me started
Thanks in advance.
