This has been a very entertaining discussion!

I love all the "Obviously you have no idea what you are talking about" comments.

I now understand why there is no peace in the Middle East. They...

You are forgetting Einstein!

Einstein said that as you go faster, time seems to slow down for you so that those at 'normal speed' think an hour has gone by but to the faster ones it only seems...

Heck give it a try and see! I haven't done this in a LONG time, so I may not have 100% of the steps down.

Well, Naru contributed breakfast, Kc dinner. Here's dessert....

The linker can remove unreferenced functions too. In VC, under Project Settings/"c/c++"/Customize there's a checkbox called "Enable function-level linking."

Check it, and unreferenced functions...

Ah, and here all this time I've been thinking of pass by reference as the same as pass by pointer, but with the compiler hiding the pointer syntax from you. :0)

Yeah, bottom line is that the...

rather than

printf("Greetings!\n");

You could use:

const char* greeting = "Greetings!\n";

printf( greeting );

the first statements uses logical and (&&) the second uses bitwise and (&), so you might try using '&&=' in the second statement.

The difference might be subtle; say the input_val was '2'. In the...

Compilers are usually set up to compile files with ".c" extensions as C and ".cpp" as C++; so if you are going to add C++ only stuff, the first thing to do is rename your .c files as .cpp. (and...

It looks like the part starting with

{
double hours[CARS]

is intended to be the main() routine? And then it calls that other routine and passes in hours?

(also, don't forget the semicolon...

To help organize your thoughts, how about:

display a prompt to get the file name
read the filename from the console

display a prompt to get the mode (read/write)

Huh? It sounds like the assignment is, given a node in the target list, insert a new node into it. Otherwise you'd have an assignment like "insert in sorted order"

So, given a target node called...

Check out 'strtok()'; it will parse a string, stopping on one or more tokens; in this case your ':'.

The strings you parse could be referenced by an array of string pointers:


const char*...

Although I realized after posting that, what you WANTED to know was how to make a reference to a class....

AClass classInstance;
AClass *pClassInstance; // pointer to the class

If you know the window to send them to, you can use WM_MOUSEMOVE and WM_MOUSEACTIVATE. But you have to know the HWND. One way to do that is to use EnumWindows and EnumChildWindows to find the...

How about:

int is_prime_helper( int n, int test )
{
if (test < 2) return 1;
if (!(n%test)) return 0;
return is_prime_helper(n,test-1);
}

int is_prime(int n,int p)

Not sure I understand the request, but using new for dynamic arrays goes like this:

void CreateArray( int numberToCreate )
{
