vb.net - Changing the solid desktop background color in VB -


i'm trying change solid desktop background color, , i'm using registrykey :

dim cd new colordialog if cd.showdialog = dialogresult.ok     dim rk registrykey = registry.currentuser.opensubkey("control panel\colors", true)     rk.setvalue("background", cd.color.r & " " & cd.color.g & " " & cd.color.b) end if

i'v seen this question, didn't in case.

the code above working because value in registry editor changing, background color not, if edited color control panel, change same value in registry editor , background color change, have explaining that, or there other way it?

i got work, can't done editing registry key, in fact need use user32.dll api so, , can use registry key value of color only, not set it, steve (↑).

here worked me :

first > declare function use api :

 private declare function setsyscolors lib "user32.dll" (byval 1 integer, byref element integer, byref color integer) boolean

second > use call function , change color :

dim cd new colordialog if cd.showdialog = dialogresult.ok     dim backgroundcolor integer = colortranslator.towin32(cd.color)     setsyscolors(1, 1, backgroundcolor) end if

hope useful :)

recursion - Can every recursive algorithm be improved with dynamic programming? -

i first year undergraduate csc student looking competitive programming. recursion involves defining , solving sub problems. understand, top down dynamic programming (dp) involves memoizing solutions sub problems reduce time complexity of algorithm. can top down dp used improve efficiency of every recursive algorithm overlapping sub problems? dp fail work , how can identify this? the short answer is: yes. however, there constraints. obvious 1 recursive calls must overlap. i.e. during execution of algorithm, recursive function must called multiple times same parameters. lets truncate recursion tree memoization. can use memoization reduce number of calls. however, reduction of calls comes price. need store results somewhere. next obvious constraint need have enough memory. comes not-so obvious constraint. memory access requires time. first need find result stored , maybe copy location. in cases, might faster let recursion calculate result instead of loading somewher...
