My friend who is a VB6 programmer is doing a benchmark against C
and the VB is running faster than the C but we know this isn't a reliable benchmark

Could you look at our benchmarks and tell us...

No I don't mean ones better than the other. Mine are the same and the creator of C++ says they should be the same too.I wanted to know which ones were showing this size problem.And i mean just a...

On my forum I go to we were talking about how some peoples C++ hellowords were 10x larger than the C version.On my GCC and G++ there is no difference but on some of theirs there is a huge one.If any...

For a program I'm writing I only need two digits past the decimal.I was a c programmer and the way I would have done this was

printf("%2f",variable);
Is there anything like this in cout?

Man I got SVN up and I love it :)

Does anyone else here use SVN for their projects?

Thanks :-)

Is this the right way to use fgets when its for non file input.


#include<stdio.h>

int main()
{
char userinput[256];

printf("Enter a string:");

I tried with MinGW with MSYS and it worked fine so its a VC++ problem

UPDATE:
After more playing around it seems the windows console is to blame?
It runs fine on the MSYS bash console for...

ROFL I didn't look at the date :confused:

I use to do C++ and switched to C and I like it.The main big difference besides no OPP is the input and output .
Here is a site that helped me http://computer.howstuffworks.com/c.htm
It helped me...

The program runs untill input is entered with scanf this program just closes after you hit enter.

I have trying C and so far it's gone great but this has been driving me mad today.

I could swear scanf worked earlier but its crashing my programs?
I know you get this problem when you forget the...

Between NASM and FASM which one would you pick?
And I pretty new to ASM but I think the Intel style looks better so I think that rules GNU out unless they have a Intel version syntax.

I don't think thats very true OS/2 is more of a unix like OS like xenix with lots of DOS support.And MS DOS was made before OS/2.

For a while I have read stuff on GNU I don't agree with their views on copyrights.Is there any BSD like groups like GNU that are more about open source then anti copyrights.

I like the BSD license...

Ok I think I'll stay with C++ :cheesy:.Well I think OOP will help its just hard sometimes for me to get its concepts.I think I'll try to focus on the OOP more now then try to hide from it:o.

I started learning C++ as my first language. But some of the OOP stuff gives me trouble. I know C is a widely used language like C++ and has about the same syntax but isn't OOP.I have tried some...

Well it is really a .Net language so it still is a JIT language.

I like open source but sometimes I don't agree with gnu and all the rules you have to follow when you use it for your things.Is there one doesn't have as many rules that makes you have to make...

I will say I won't but then get the first day it comes out:cheesy: and then be screaming because of huge bugs.

:cheesy: Many people have told me that.

I'm a learning C++ programmer but one of my friends is a VB 6 programmer.He wants to go to vb.net but it makes him mad because it's so different from VB 6.Could someone please tell me any good...

I don't know if this too OT but so many people ask.I just got Sam's C++ in 21 days and it's great.Don't let the name fool you because the book is huge and I don't think I'll finish it in 21 days;)....

LOL Man I wish I would have found that out about C++ for Dummies :cheesy::cheesy::cheesy: when i got it a while ago.

I'm 16
My favorite shows are Xfiles ,trigun(ANIME) ,SamuraiX(ANIME)

My favorite movies are The Matrix ,Lord of the rings ,Kill Bill ,
Dirty Harry
My hobbies are C++...

Hi I'm a new C++ programmer and this site has a lot great info. It's my new homepage:cheesy: I just wanted to say hello to everyone and thanks for all the help.

Should I use the codeblocks IDE with MinGW or Dev C++ IDE with MinGW???

I'm only a beginner C++ programmer and I don't like VC++ express because of installing the platform SDK:eek:
