To make it a more secure method, you could do a binary write to the file with the time of day (in clock ticks) that the file was written, the number of guesses that occured, and a strange binary...

This would require a data aquisition card, an instrumentational amplifier attached to a very sensitive inductor, and amplified so that the minute changes in electrical forces in the air generate a...

Umm...What point was made, exactly, with that post?

and kelechi96,
don't get discouraged too much, some of the people around here can be a little ignorant at times, but will usually help you out...

I would sugguest attending class.

An example of this would be to measure the amount of electrical energy in the air at any given point using some sort of analog device, which then converts this into a voltage difference, which is...

Your function makes little to no sense to me. Just think about injecting test values into it. Say you pass it 5, base 10:

5 / 10 = 0.5 = 0 (int)
"0123456789abcdef"[0 % 10] = '0'
Well damn. ...

I don't understand why your are interchanging null terminated c style strings with the String class. The string class alone should suffice here and it handles its own memory (and also contains an...

Hey thrashing the thrashers is just as hypocritical as hating all racists.

Use a for loop. And show some freakin effort!

It's easiest to read it from right to left. int const * const reads constand pointer to constant integer. Meaning the pointer value won't change, and the pointed to value won't change. No effect...

Unless its an RTTI assignment, you probably shouldn't use it. Use the method I described earlier.

Hard to tell when you don't show us the context in which they are used.

If you have to use RTTI as part of the assignment, then google it. Otherwise do as the others sugguested. Implement in the base class (the one you derived the 2 accounts from?) a virtual method...

What they are trying to say is, it's bad practice to exit your program spontaneously. Objects would be left undestroyed, memory orphaned, and it just doesn't look professional. Instead, use logical...

I don't think that would help the performance. If anything, it would just increase build time by about a few clock cycles (setting a const flag). If you actually broke down the code you write into...

You can load the files in using the fstream.


ifstream inFile;
vector<string> data;
inFile.open("File.txt");
while (!inFile.eof())
{
string sString = inFile.getline();
...

Your map code seems fine. Maybe post more code, where s and v are declared. It seems like this wasn't copied and pasted, since there's a few program-busting spelling mistakes in it. You might...

As for the actual problem, I would go with a simpler method. Simply push all the keywords into a vector of strings, then load in the file to check against (a txt file) into another vector of...

If you are using VS2005+ press ctrl+a+k then f. This will run a macro to format all of your indents perfectly =)

How about...don't read the file twice!! It's practices like this that cause execssive wear on harddrives. Why not load everything in the file into memory (an array/vector)? You will find that RAM...

This is just semantics. It doesn't matter at all. In fact, it's faster to make them all members (from a coders perspective) since you need one less argument per operator.

The reason for using const modifiers is for situations like this:

Point const X(5, 2, 3);
Point Y(0, 0, 0);
Y = X;

Since x is a const, the previous version of your code will not work, but the...

here's what i used to test it:

#include "NumberList.h"
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
NumberList mylist;
cout<<"Adding 5..."<<endl;

Well it's up to you, really. Taking out the - 1 in the while loop will adjust it to what you want.

This seems to be working fine... I made a list of 5, 10, 20, 30, and then insertedbypostion @ 2, and got the list 5, 2, 10, 20 , 30. Isn't this what you want?

Arrg I'll compile it and see what I can find out for you :P. Post the whole code (or better yet attach a zip of the whole project)

The position should still be -1, so in the while loop, use

while (nodePtr !=0 && position < pos - 1)


also, init position to 0, not 1

I think the if(pos <= 1) should be if(pos < 1), since 0 is the head.

Hmmm perhaps you should be comparing to position - 1, since 0 is counted. While something may be in 3rd in the list, it would be counted as 2nd since position starts at 0. Position will always...

At a glance I saw more than 15 syntax errors. I'm way too lazy to point those all out... you have [] around a cout statement - that would probably make a compiler explode. You have ; all over the...

remember that an array's max index is always 1 less than its size, since 0 is included. So for part 1,

numberArray[0][0] = 148;

and #2

numberArray [8][10] = 18;

Hmmm I think using chars should be fine. Post the whole program and I'll race you to debug it.

int list::recursion(int item, int position, node * temp = startPtr)
{
if (temp->next)
{
if(temp->item != item)
recursion(iItem,...

For problems like this, I would step through the code (via F10 to step through and F11 to step 'in' in VC++). Keep an eye on your local variable list, and as their values change make sure that they...

I'd recommend you either #ifdef #define something at the start of your .h file, or use a #pragma once line to ensure it isn't being included multiple times.

I don't understand your for loop (which is also syntactically erronous) , or the do loop. Just get rid of them for now, and implement them later if need be.

Hmm you are using the switch syntax...

I suppose if you were writing software for something with very little available memory (ie a cell phone), it could become a problem. But now I'm just getting off topic.

Also, checking to see if the pointer is NULL is a method of checking if the memory was actually allocated. But an exception will halt the execution before this can be checked, so the nothrow arg...

Hmmm. Maybe you should include the code to make the program run? Also, I would sugguest using inheritance rather than unions for this (like ancient dragon said). Here's the drawer header my school...

Hmmm i never realised that the class only represents 1 toy. Ignore the part I said about arrays, but still fix the recursion issue.
