>>But this looks ugly and I had to use a separate variable.

I think that looks beautiful. In fact you can just make a function that does that, and so it will be in a sense a one liner.

I don't...

You need to do a little more :


int LoadBitmap(const char* filename)
{
GLubyte* pixels;
HBITMAP hbmp;
BITMAP bmp;
GLuint size;
GLenum format;

don't use the sqrt function. compare the squared distance.

Haven't tested it yet, but it could be similar to this :


int M = 5;
int i = 1;
while(i <= M) cout << i++ <<" "; //print from 1 to 5
while(--i > 0) cout << i << " "; //print from 4 to 1

Yes, structure goes by units of 4.

int cnt = 0;

for infinite loop
{
//do stuff
if(//do stuff is what i need) // then break;
else cnt++;

//if cnt is above the limit then break;
}

sizeof(array)/sizeof(double) ?

Have a left, middle, and end variable. Make middle static.

Move left up 1, move end down 1. If left == mid || right == mid then stop.

I think what you are looking for is something like this :


char *twoDee[][3] = {{"item1", "1", "1"}, {"item2", "1", "2"}};


You need to supply the column before hand.
Thus the code :
...

Here is another way you might want to try. Its in c++ though.
You could try to convert it into c.



float GetFloat()
{
std::cout<<"Enter a number please : ";
float num(0);
cin >> num;
