Downloading videos off website in Java/Selenium? -

-

as bit of side project, wanted create program friendly students @ university download lectures posted online.

the videos available online, , watch them, users first login university account, navigate list of courses have online lectures, click course , watch lecture. download them, users need install 3rd party extension (like video downloader professional) , download lectures

i wanted create small applet students input

  1. login user , password university website
  2. the course wish download
  3. the lecture number of course/option lectures download
  4. the download path save these lectures

program create new browser window, login website, go course, , download lecture number want.

i ideally want run in background users can't see going on. know phantonjs can run invisible, there way chrome this?

so question: selenium idea this?

how make google chrome instance invisible end user in selenium?

basically want run chrome headless. not obvious task (although might in near future) , requires prerequisites.

so answer no, selenium isn't idea it. can have better options downloading file in background process... programming or scripting language can (including authentication part) , easier downloading files webdriver.

arrays - Algorithm to find ideal starting spot in a circle -

-
so problem have been debating such: your given array of integers representing circle. then, have pick spot in circle start. place start, compare value @ array number of steps took there , if steps less or equal number, include in final set. find place start have elements in set. ex, a=[0, 1, 2] if start @ index=0, then: a[0]=0 < =0 0 included a[1]=1 < =1 1 included a[2]=2 < =2 2 included final set: {0,1,2} if start @ index=1, then: a[1]=1 > 0 1 not included a[2]=2 > 1 2 not included here loop around a[0]=0 > 2 0 included final set: {0} if start @ index=2, then: a[2]=2 > 0 2 not included, here loop around a[0]=0 < = 1 0 included a[1]=1 < = 2 1 included final set: {0,1} so in trivial case, starting position index=0 best position results in final set elements. brute force method of finding obvious, trying find more efficient method. attempts far have been examine trying find max intersect of viable starting ranges calculated each element in arr...
