timkendall / timespan.js
Created October 25, 2014 04:41
Naive Timespan class (doesn't account for multiple days)
function Timespan (start, end) {
/*
* Todo - handle multiday timespans
*/
// Make sure times are valid times
if (!Time.isValid(start) || !Time.isValid(end)) throw new Error('Invalid start or end times');
// Normalize format ex.'02:15 PM'
this.start = new Time(start).format('hh:mm AM');
this.end = new Time(end).format('hh:mm AM')
var sqlite3 = require('sqlite3').verbose(),
fs = require('fs'),
Q = require('q');
/*
* Grab data synchronously (this loads the entire raw data into memory, SLOW!)
*/
//var obj = JSON.parse(fs.readFileSync('/Users/Me/Google Drive/CPSC-408/TimKendall-Assignment5/data/sections.json', 'utf8'));
//console.log(obj)
/*
* Grab data iteratively through a stream, extremely meory efficeint and fast

Here are some of my initial thoughts on Go (a very popular language right now). Still need to spend some time actually developing non-trivial applications with it.
