Lesson learned but unfortunately the fact persists for our very case. Since I have the 2 options now - either to rewrite everything or to try to correct it as it is I'm a bit more for the second...

I will read on this topic, thanks.



If you are so kind to share these things with me I could use the time to correct the outlook of the program.

Generally you're right about the testing. I can't think of a way, though, to check every function, especially when one function often uses the other from the same class and executable code is...

liblifts.h is the dirty worker in this case so this is the place. I presume that the Elevator class is the primary and probably almost only source of errors. The open_doors() function and the move()...

I found a plase to paste it: http://rafb.net/paste/results/Jqrme337.html

They will make no sense without the other code. Besides the program is divided into files, besides the function and namespace division..

Hi everybody! I recently wrote a little simulation program, that simulates a real-time elevator system with 3 elevators. Since the code is around 530 lines I presume it is not a good idea to paste it...

Perhaps the second :-) Thanks!

Default constructor i don't need in this case, because i need to set up some predifined values for buttons and states. I'm still a bit confused how to edit my code so it's working, though. As for the...

Hi to all! I'm writing a simple simulation program for elevators but i get a problem, namely:


elevator.cpp: In constructor `Elevator::Elevator(int)':
elevator.cpp:41: error: no matching...

Don't forget that C++ gives you the opportunity to use string instead of char[]. Combining this with the usage of find() and substr() can solve your problems.

The documentation of your compiler keeps the answers to many "secrets". Besides ALPHA and BETA releases of programs carry these names for the sole reason to say that they are still unfinished.

temp *= num--; is equivallent to: temp = temp*(num-1);
temp += 5; is equivallent to: temp = temp + 5;

The shorthand operators are basic and useful, due to their simplicity and length.

The simplest way is to use a loop. A for(unsigned long i=user_input; i > 1; i--); could be one solution.

Then consider using another compiler.;) If you want to start over when something in the user's choice goes wrong you can either provide an ethernal loop around the code that should be performed over...

#include<iostream>
#include<string>
using namespace std;

class employee
{
string first;
string last;
int salary;

Maybe something like: extern char mir[200]; in test.h can solve your problem ?

Since strings in C are arrays of characters and an array is something quite trivial to programming languages, you don't need to import libraries to get strings to work. You can make your life easier,...

Nice. :-)

I'm reading your post and I can't really get what the problem is, especially with the decimal.. The reminder you can find using the % operator. More information and details you can find here:...

Although it's not for VC++ you can look through the code of cyber_azis and find some answers. There is a Borland library adapted for Dev-Cpp (another C++ compiler) that gives you the opportunity to...

Simple. Always get stuff from the user as a string. Then check it and get from it what you need. If you don't find it - shoot an error and let a new input be given. There are some lines of code that...

No. std is to iostream.h (cstdio.h respectively) but namespaces are just logical units holding whatever belongs in a logical way together.

Ex.:
namespace simple_operations {
double...

ups.. :rolleyes:

include conio.h and use getch();

If you're so kind to post some errors that you get, as well as a brief information about the platform that you're trying to install/use it on, maybe someone can answer you..;)

Since everybody is against the idea I'll play for it. Yes, that is Dave! (I'm searching for supporters!:cheesy: )

Look here, maybe this will help you a bit also: http://www.devarticles.com/c/a/Cplusplus/Using-MFC-in-Cplus-Part-2-Menus/7/

You can write a program to create all these things. Just a random generator for the quantities. The names you can find in adventure books for children, comics, old movies/games or.. in your...

What you're writing looks a bit more like pure C then C++. You're obviously using headers imported from Pascal to C and C++ respectively (the names of the functions you're using are calling some...

The sorting you can do in many ways. One way could be putting all the data in let's say a class and then sort the vector of objects with ssort(), qsort() or whatever function you want. Other way...

The last time when I used Pascal was ages ago, but I do remember a function delay(), i.e. delay(6); gives u a delay from 6 seconds. Maybe you need to use Crt (or if there is a new name for it) to get...

The Art of Assembly is a book that I find quite nice, understandable and deep enough.

Gillzor, the problems with the games are in general 2 - insufficient hardware recources (you're on the limit, but I don't think this is your problem) and outdated drivers for video/monitor/directx...

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

using namespace std;

class Account {
public:
Account(): balance(0.0) {};
inline bool checkpass(string number, string password) {

Since both programs require relatively low knowledge over the language you can try to find a few tutorials and go over them. This doesn't require too much time and it'll get you over the basics. I...

double in C++ has a 64-bit precision. long double has the same I think, which leaves you with the opportunity to use either double, or if it's not good enough for you, you can use something like...

Rashakil Fol, you know what I mean.

I'm giving you the "I wash my hands" type of answer, namely a link to a tutorial but I hope it would prove to be useful, since it looks like covering all the important stuff....

It is quite obvious what you wish. Maybe if you try to answer some of the questions you were asked somebody will be able to help you.
