The first programming language I ever write code was Microsoft's QBasic. After QBasic I moved to Visual Basic 6.0 and some Pascal and when I grew up and I had to work my life I wrote in C#, Java, ASP, ASP .NET, ActionScript and later PHP. The last decade I write in Java, PHP, some JavaScript and some C for the Arduino framework on a daily basis.I also got involved with Python but I soon realized that...

The other day I was making a small CPU miner for Ethereum using Java. I decided to implement the stratum protocol and I came to the following... difficulty. Stratum does not send the target directly to the miner as the Getwork protocol does. Stratum sends a double data type that holds the difficulty and the miner have to generate the target from that. Stratum example message of mining difficulty: {...
