I'm swiss, so my mother tongue is German and my English is probably a little bit messed up. Sorry for that.
I'm still new at processing... I'd just like to have some help with the following problem:
I want the user to type in a short text or message which will be transformed into a QR-Code. Since it would be orbitally difficult to write sth that encodes it live I want the program to enter this particular message on
http://qrcode.kaywa.com/ and to show the output (as a QR-Code).
It would be great if the user didn't even notice this (Like, typing in message>output QR-Code without anything in between to be noticed).
I'm new at processing. My task at school is to program a QR code generator and reader as a first project. Bad thing is, I have two problems:
1. I don't know how a QR code works. I mean, I know the basics, but how does a generator "translate" data into binary code? And what's the logic behind the placement of the squares? Probably this is even the wrong forum to ask, but I'm trying anyway.
2. What would be a good start? Should I work with arrays? My programming skills are quite limited yet and I seem not to fully understand the tutorials *blush* (I am swiss, so my mother tongue is german. I'm studying English for about seven years now, but it doesn't seem to suffice...)
