UAIseeker Vs SAMs Vs JUAIseek (2 Viewers)

Whats going to happen to UAIseeker now?

I thought you couldn't host a UAI predicting thing for free on
boredofstudies.org since it became too popular?

How come there isn't a reverse for sams?

i'm just wondering how does the accuracy compare to JUAIseek?

for my UAI

real: 98.3
JUAI: 98.25
SAMs: 98.4

JUAIseek still has the advantage of being able to be used while
not connected to the internet. This was the whole reason I
made it.

i like SAM's more better, this is an unbias opinion either, but it's truly a well designed predictor, and provides a thorough means of statistics outputed for the user, and the design is intuitive and friendly, Laz put alot of work into this, and i believe it's about the best predictor, and i give it a 10/10.

i like SAM's graphic feel

That was true throughout 2003 - we are now attempting to make alternative arrangements for revenue, without charging students. However, it will mean that we have to foot the bill ourselves for a few months.

I'm not entirely comfortable with the way the other reverse procedures have been implemented, and I haven't yet had time to revamp them. I decided that I wanted SAM to be a premium service, and hence it won't include anything that isn't both methodologically sound and completely actualised.

Actually, it was just me. Your tool will always have advantages over ours. I have no plans (and no desire) to write another offline calculator - I need to be able to tweak it at my own leisure. And because of that we can never implement anything like your slider bars, which I'm still very fond of... mmm... but compromises have to be made. *sighs wistfully*

i havent tried the others, but this one is pretty good! i like the fact it doesn't have to be downloaded, however of course the downside is you always have to be connected to the net

SAM wins, a lot more friendly, and for my UAI, more accurate than JUAI...

the advantage of having it online is the actual program can be updated regularly without having u guys have to go and download and unzip it and install the java framework to use it.

who is ever 'offline' anyway?

(yes, this is a cheeky comment)

lol, good point.

I like SAM's statistics and GUI, but I like JUAI's simplicity. I'd probably use both.

it only really needs to be updated once a year....

I'm very sure applications do generate alot of bugs here and there, and you wouldn't wanna continuously release a minor updated build, having it online is the best way for it to be updated instead of having users re-download etc...

one of the reasons i didn't download JUAI is because there were so many versions, i didn't know which one to touch. the other reason is that i don't like downloading programs and having them sit on my computer and only touch them once or twice.

Maybe you could implement a "Check for updates" feature in your program? With that, if you ever thought of a new feature you wanted to add, or discover a bug that needs fixing, the user doesn't need to download an entirely new program?

just get the final version.

It is only 100k, it won't take much space

 

[Carlito]

much easier just to do it on the site now.

downloading and installing things is a bitch.

 

[Winston]

Well give JUAISeeker a break, it was a good try, it got 03'ers during the day of the release of the HSC marks pretty good, development is not easy for everyone he put effort into it

 

[Carlito]

Yeah i used the JUAISeeker alpha for mine, and it was pretty close to what i actually got. Thanks jm[insert alot of numbers here], and it was much appreciated.

 

[Ragerunner]

Damn I GOT. TO. LEARN. HOW. TO. PROGRAM!!!!!!!!!!

 

[jm1234567890]

hmm...i think i'll work on the user friendlyness side more next year
