Copying and Pasting cs Code

In cs, like in almost any computer programming language, reading data from a file can be tricky. You add extra lines of code to tell the computer what to do. Sometimes you can copy and paste these lines from other peoples’ code.

For example, you can follow the pattern in this listing:

  public override void ComputeBound() {
   Node currNode = piece.Node;
   int origRow = currNode.row;
   int origCol = currNode.col;

   Node frontNode = null;
   Node leftEatNode = null;
   Node rightEatNode = null;

   Grid grid = GameManager.Instance.Grid;
   GCPlayer p1 = p1 = GameManager.Instance.P1;

   int toAdd = 0;
   if (p1.Has(piece)) {
    toAdd = 1;
   } else {
    toAdd = -1;
   }

   frontNode = grid.GetNodeAt(origRow + toAdd, origCol);
   leftEatNode = grid.GetNodeAt(origRow + toAdd, origCol - 1);
   rightEatNode = grid.GetNodeAt(origRow + toAdd, origCol + 1);

   ComputeMoveOrEatPiece(leftEatNode);
   ComputeMoveOrEatPiece(rightEatNode);
   ComputeMoveOrEatPiece(frontNode);
  }
