For instance... I have the class Deck, which represents a deck of cards, and I want another class, derived from that, called cards, I want class Deck to have a class array called Cards[52], so I can...

There is absolutely no point in using a pointer...

Ugh you guys are awesome, thx :P

This...

Which is in higher demand in the job market right now???

I have a question, why, when your setting up a constructor, do you declare all the objects values in the cpp file, yet comment the exact stuff in the header, why not just do it all initial constructor

Just curious to see who has memorized the 70 or so lines to create a window, I for one am almost to the point of having it totally memorized, and I also know what it all means, thats obviously...

Yes, I've been teaching myself for awhile. I'm fine with most aspects, its just pointers have always kicked my ass in one way or another, like the compiler will expect me to put something in that...

Noone on here, I can nearly say I am 100 percent positive, will give an honest answer of anything besides C, you pie chart is done, very bad poll dude, no offense

yeah I actually had it on a seperate pc and didnt ctrl v it onto here, rather quickly interpreted it, my bad, but thx a lot, and one last thing, I tried to add a function called

char...

ugh can you just show me what you would do in the int main() too I'm really having severe problems, me and pointers are just not friends

So I'm having trouble with classes today, I want to do something like


#include <iostream.h>
using namespace std;
class Dummy{
char Name[256];
void setName(char nam){Name=nam;}
};

WTF, I went into your program and changed the 2 to a three and my computer started beeping about 3 times a second and printing off weird symbols on the console, i nearly messed myself

so far ty, however i have 2 questions, I dont know why I need a const in there, and I cant find any really helpful tuts on polymorphism and class deriving, can you lead me to a good one :P

I want to create a battle system for an RPG game, one a little more robust then the previous one I made. This one I want to be very dynamic and easy to use. I want to use the Allegro API for it, but...

I prefer to derive

thx :)

Learn how to fully use the windows header with help from
Windows.h Tutorial (http://www.winprog.org/tutorial/simple_window.html), I'm pretty well along in the Programming world and was wondering if...

LMAO thats great!!!

If I use things from another class I tend to just do a heirarchy, branching one off another and protecting the values i want only in the heirarchy, for example

class Mother{
};

class Son:...

//Deck Class
#include<iostream>
#include<stdlib.h>

using namespace std;


class Deck{
int Cards[51];
public:

I must say I always love a program where I can use #include<vector> vectors are like the peanut butter to my chocolate!

I figured it out on my own, but BeyondTheEye gave a pretty good description, REP!!!

What I want to do is make a grading system. There is a vector for schools and classes and students, all of these which have their own class, derived from a class called system.
class System{
School...

After reading up on them in terms of class hierarchy, they seem to just be almost like comments, to remind you that all classes use this sort of function

I've been reading up on templates and they just seem like so much hastle for so little reward. I can't find anyway to effectively use it over vectors. I am just having a lot of trouble learning them...

I suggest Allegro, its an excellent API, my favorite for 2d work
allegro.cc

thx, but I need to be able to put data into those for statements and theres no call for them in the function, wouldn't I need to use a typedef or something like that?

for(int n = 0; n<blocksx;n++){
for(int x = 0; x<blocksy;x++){

I just want to be able to shorten this into something easy so I could just type in like one word to get it to work, it is used a...

I want to be able to bring the single instance class into a function of another class without having to take each seperate little variable from the class and inject it in, can I just do something...

Your question is difficult to understand, but if you mean will it construct what you have in a default constructor to each instance of said class, then yes it should.

well its in the api allegro, I want two public classes to share variables and use eachothers functions

Topic... just wondering if it would be friend or pointers in the main or something else...

yeah I was just messing around with pointers, ill get rid of em and report back to you guys sometime later, its 7 am here and I'm tired as hell... Night

I want integers 1-52 to be drawn only once, so every "card" will be seen and not one picked twice, heres the code

#include<iostream>
#include<time.h>
#include<string>
#include<stdlib.h>
using...

yeah sorry guys I had been thinkin about it for a while but posting this unclogged my mind, a little snippet of how I did it

#include<iostream>
#include<stdlib.h>
#include<time.h>...

All I need to know is how a good way to make sure integers between 1 and 52 wont be draw twice over in a for statement... I was thinking something like

srand (time(NULL));
int *drawn; ...

dude you should take the time to comment your code, its really quick and goes a long way in speeding up the debug process, what class is this for, intro to C++ or an advanced one or what??? What year...

I hate VC++, its just such a pain to get going, I perfer Dev C++ for ease of use(though it has a lame debugger)

the criticism seemed constructive IMO, the error was blatantly obvious
