AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around creating a time selector with up and down arrows for selecting hours and minutes. Participants identify this component as a "spinner," which allows users to cycle through numerical values. The conversation also references common applications, such as clock apps on cellphones, that utilize similar functionality. A link to Oracle's documentation on spinners is provided for further reference. Overall, the focus is on the design and terminology of a user interface element for time selection.

In the above case, the requester knows the target's "secret" key - because they have his ID, and therefore knows his birthdate.
Thread 'Project Documentation'
Trying to package up a small bank account manager project that I have been tempering on for a while. One that is certainly worth something to me. Although I have created methods to whip up quick documents with all fields and properties. I would like something better to reference in order to express the mechanical functions. It is unclear to me about any standardized format for code documentation that exists. I have tried object orientated diagrams with shapes to try and express the...
