y-intercept? What?
y = mx + b is a linear function. What are these 'four ys' and 'four xs'?

it should read: cout << "yarg!" << endl; instead.

>What medium do you want to draw it on...

Considering his lack of information, I think it's safe to assume the medium is a terminal.

I repeat, you must draw it yourself.

You must draw it "bymyself."

The = is an assignment operator. Use == instead. Your code would still need some fixing, but I'm sure you can figure that out.

You realize these are just DOS commands? Oh and btw, none of your commands work on *my* computer, I wonder why that is.

Oh wow, I feel stupid.

For homework I'm apparently supposed to implement some functions defined in <algorithm> . So this is what I have so far:

template <class I> bool m_equal( I b, I e, I b2 ) ...

Or a little little easier:

int round(const double& c)
{
if (c - (int)c > .5)
return (int)c + 1;
else
return (int)c;
}

Why are you using graphics.h ? Real programmers(tm) use a real API such as SDL, Allegro, or ClanLib.

1. Get a better compiler. (Dev-Cpp (http://www.bloodshed.net/devcpp.html), Code::Blocks (http://www.codeblocks.org/))
2. Get a better graphics API. (SDL (http://www.libsdl.org/), ALLEGRO...

Why are you erasing anything in the first place?
here's the idea:

1. Increment an iterator until isspace() is false.
2. Increment another iterator until isspace() is true. You now have a word....

Sure.

Instead of doing all this crap with the string, why not just create a new string? isspace() is your friend.

So what's the problem? (besides your bad code)

>Num goes in here??

If num goes there, why did you pass b , an uninitialized variable with a random value?

Do you know what a scope is?

Your getFib() function can't magically get variable values from your main function.

Since b is unitialized, the value of b could be *anything.*

>But the main problem I have is that when num goes to getFib() it becomes a very strange number thats nothing close to what I input to...

Well... what seems to be wrong with these 2 lines:


long double b;
getFib(b);

You could turn off terminal echoing.

Were you using devpaks? If not, I suggest you try it as generally it's quite easy to install devpak libraries. http://devpaks.org/category.php?category=SDL

ahh sorry.

First of all, you should use classes. In addition to this you should use vectors instead of strings. And third, you should make your program platform inpedendent. This means not using system() .
...

for ( int c = 7; c < i; c += 2)
cout << c << "\n";

try:

#include "SDL/SDL.h"

I don't believe so, but there is a C compiler (http://hpgcc.org/) for the hp-50g (A much superior calculator if I may interject my own opinion)

Let me guess: Your using visual c++ 6 and some subpar textbook that uses outdated headers. The class is taught by some loser who is too stupid to get a real job actually programming. In fact judging...

You need to seed rand. srand (time(0)) ( it uses ctime I think so include that)

Are most computer science professors that incompetent?

Airline homework problem? Whats that?

output:

cout << "Hello, World\n"; // '\n' returns the line

input:

cin >> var1; //sets var1 to the user input (most of the time)

I know.

just use Ancient Dragon's code but replace Sleep(1000) with Sleep(90000).

use sdl_mixer.

while(true)
{
system("<yourcommand here>");
Sleep(90000);//have to include windows.h I think
}

You should probably just create a struct that stores the name of the person and their score. Then store the the bowler struct in a vector.

-Id:/dev-c++/include/gtkmm-2.4
-Id:/dev-c++/lib/gtkmm-2.4/include
-Id:/dev-c++/include/gtk-2.0
-Id:/dev-c++/lib/sigc++-2.0/include
-Id:/dev-c++/include/sigc++-2.0
...

Try rebooting to update your path (I don't have access to a windows machine currently). If that doesn't work you could manually locate all of the necessary files.

What doesn't work?
