<luckyluke42>youpi: looking again at the code, only the thread_set/get_status accessors are missing, using i386_xfp_save instead of i386_fp_save + i386_fp_regs, right?
<white-wolf>hi
<white-wolf>i would like help to develop hurd, but need learn to code. i would learn in autodidaxie. witch connaissance i need to begin, in maths, etc... could you help me to create an autodidaxie program ?
<white-wolf>my french presentation of my vision of hurd https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/101X9EVEPkNdn7EfbzfBc08FPyqlHVar5FQPNimpBcbY/edit?usp=sharing
<ThinkT510>white-wolf: you'll likely get the same responses you got from #minix
<youpi>luckyluke42: xmm save/restore on context switch is implemented in gnumach, otherwise it wouldn't be available to userland
<youpi>it's indeed only the set/get status accessors which are missing
<white-wolf>ThinkT510, but by why can i start ? to learn coding ?
<ThinkT510>white-wolf: I don't know any french resources you can use to learn from
<white-wolf>i have book
<white-wolf>but any else c langage witch knwolegement need ?
<ThinkT510>the vast majority of resources out there are still going to be in english. I'm no linguistics expert so I can't really give you tips on how to learn english better.
<white-wolf>ok in fist upper my english skill ?
<ThinkT510>yes, I'm sorry that seems to be needed
<white-wolf>ok thank it's a first step
<white-wolf>in maths witch need i know ?
<ThinkT510>unless you want to get into studying cryptography you'll only really need very basics math skills. learning how to program is more about understanding logic and problem solving
<white-wolf>o.k.

<etno>In France, algorithmic science is sometimes called "math". Algorithmic is an important theoretical background for proper programming.
