Is it a Windows handle, the one in windows.h? It's not an initializer, it's what int and char are: a type.

If it's a window handle, it's basically as specific as a pointer. A pointer used by...

You can look all that info up in a STL List reference, as the one found here:

http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/stl/list/

See the "STL Algorithms" for sorting data inside STL containers.

Erm. I guess it can be compile in MSVC++. You can try to install MSVC++ Express and grab the platform SDK. Google is your friend. Can anybody else compile this code?

Example of inheritance using virtual functions:

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

class base {
public:
virtual void func(){
cout << "First level: Base class" << endl;...

class Client
{
public:
string name;
Menu order;
int table_number;
string type;
double bill;

Client(void)

Errr, ignore that last part. Sometimes I'm unclear.

Student student;
for(int subject = 0; subject < 4; subject++){
string code;
int cu;
char pass_or_fail;
inFile >> code;
...

No, student already has 4 subjects: use those.


Student::Subjects::setVar();

That sucks. But still, just loop the student array then, one time for input, one time for output. So no more extra variables representing members in class Student! ;)

You could create a function that accepts a reference to a student and outputs it's data?


void output_student(Student &stud){
//put the output code here
}
//....
int main(){
//loop each of...

Totally wrong approach buddy. Create 4 students, read out their data.

Example code:

cout << students[0].getVar() << endl;


Kinda like that.

Good luck with the assignment, don't forget about the STL! (It has a queue, of course you can't use that, but it has plenty of other useful containers and algorithms).

If you're standing in queue line at the grocery shop, does the LINE look like a tree, with intersections and such, or more like an array of (possibly annoyed) customers?

I sure hope it doesn't...

It doesn't compile in MinGW's GCC. Looks like MSVC code?

I'm getting these errors:

=|
sdvrp.h|18|warning: ignoring #pragma warning |
sdvrp.h|222|warning: no newline at end of file|...

Oh it does you no good, but you can't really check for !file, since file would be.. something. Although it "worked", maybe by accident.

Anyway, Could you hardcode the path, "C:\test.txt", and put...

Wait, doesn't the fstream constructor *always* create something? Check if file.good() is true.



Oh and, don't open it twice. In the constructor OR with fstream.open(), not both.

Hurr, it might be a really stupid "error".

One time (at band camp, xD) I was trying to open a file from an app I wrote in Code::Blocks on windows. So I put that file in project/bin/debug/, but...

Yeah, but keep in mind he didn't design the functions himself, his prof did it for him. He needs to use these functions, unaltered, I think.

On my dualcore processor, 2 cores where in use and it indeed didn't give any errors as stated earlier. This is on Windows XP x64.

Okay, not 100% right. Darnit. xD

I've just created a single multithreaded program and it was (a dreaded task and) crashing constantly! So I ended up creating mutexes for every "group" of shared...

"Set pass/fail" I guess? Maybe the int is the subject indicator? Ugh, the variable names are horribly chosen. Just use that int as subject index and the char as.. P or F or something? Or grades? I...

MrSpigot was 100% right, my bad. You don't need mutexes to write and read from one variable at the same time.

Tested with:


#include <iostream>
#include <windows.h>
using namespace std;
...

That's wrong, almost 100% sure, couldn't make sure with google, but it's just 2 threads trying to access the same memory: doesn't matter if they read or write, both will lead to errors.

Agreed on...

Sure, it looks fine, but you need to write it yourself if you want to learn C++, not somebody else.

I mean, do you know what this &*(array + k) does? (It looks rather redundant...)

What doesn't work?

new doesn't set the allocated memory to 0, could that be a problem?

Be a bit more specific please.

Haha, no, that function of course needs to know what subject to set. Change it a bit, add a comment for your prof? The other functions do have such a parameter, so maybe he forgot?

// set the subject grade (pass or fail)
void Student::setSpf(char score,int grade)
{
}

How does that function know what subject it is supposed to work on?

xD Okay, sorry. I'd suggest sqrt() nonetheless, but it doesn't really matter.

He means the sqrt() function.

And, not related to programming, you're squaring it, not square rooting it.

A small addition:
Sometimes set functions do return something, and most of the time that's whether they succeeded or not.

Anyway, seeing the format, it's like this:

<name>, list(<subject>,...

while(!inFile.eof())
{
// use getline to read entire line
getline(inFile, s);
cout << s << endl;
}

That's wrong code. eof gets set when it has read eof, so and...

while(firstTry == true)
{
{
cout << "It Is Your First Try, We Will Create My Array First:\n";
updateArr(arr, size);
}
return firstTry = false; //Don't return here, hehe.
}

From the reference: (http://www.libsdl.org/cgi/docwiki.cgi/SDL_keysym)

"... The unicode field is only used when UNICODE translation is enabled with SDL_EnableUNICODE. ... "

I suppose you did...

Maybe make sure that conversion is going alright?

Output (char) (event.key.keysym.unicode) or something.

ASCII chars in UTF-8 might be something like, {\x00\x<ASCII-code>}, in that case,...

newnode = new Node;
newnode = NULL;


Eerrrr? That's a bit of weird code. You're trying to derefence that pointer on the next line! ;)

Here are two examples I created and use as a reference, maybe they are of help:


/*
** Playing around with WinSockets
*/

#include <stdio.h>
#include <winsock.h>

First post!

Read the sticky at the top of the forum?

It's called a bool in C++ ;)

You can create types with typedef.

typedef <newtype> <oldtype>

IIRC

You can have a monster class with a function isHit(const unsigned int x, const unsigned int y); that returns whether the monster is hit. This makes the hit function belonging to the player really...

You're coding in C++. Forget about global variables, try and make a class that has all those variables. If you can't fit it in a class or function you're quite possibly doing something wrong. ...
