johnyjj2 if you really want help, please post your code.

What you've listed so far is nonsense.

Whitespace between the keyword end and the period is not significant.

Perhaps you should post more code? It is hard to diagnose what is wrong.

With FPC, you must be sure to have the {$goto on}...

In Pascal, a semicolon separates statements (and terminates directives).

So the following is correct:

program Hello; { Semicolon terminates directive }
begin
writeln( 'Hello world!' ) {...

It isn't a bug. Free Pascal is a little more strict about certain things than TP.
Your program should read:

program fred;

type funcparam=function(x:real):real;

function jim(x:real):real;
...

What version of TP are you using? My TP4 wouldn't get past the 8+ letter filename.

First, you are forbidden to use reserved words as identifiers. That means unit and in are off-limits.

You must...

Argh, I couldn't find a simple example on the web. So, without further ado:

hello.dpr

program hello;
{$apptype console}
uses greet;

var
index: cardinal;

Its full path is given as the first command-line argument. So you will want to add code to check to see if an mp3 file was supplied and autoplay it. How exactly you do it is up to you, but I...

> Maybe even scan the image and set the region pixel by pixel, so we will have a long list of vectorial "lines".
That is actually non-trivial to implement. But there do exist algorithms to do it. I...

I think I understand. You want the actual button itself to have the same shape as the polygon?

You'll have to create a region and assign it to your button.
See the MS Regions documentation...

Take a look in the documentation for the TCanvas.Pixels property. (Your button has a canvas). Also look at the OnMouseDown event.

If you are going to be using buttons with pixel images (like a GIF) you will need to do pixel-hit testing yourself.

Use the OnMouseDown event's X and Y values (which are relative to the button) to...

I don't use Word, so I can't help... but what you are doing is unlikely to work well anyway because the window class names can change between versions of Word... But I think you should be looking for...

I know next to nothing about databases (because I really don't like messing with them).

But I wonder, being separate forms, are you using a separate connection to the database in each form?

It...

> hen i remove the line 22 then i get the answer 1 when input 90

That's because on line 21 you assign the answer to x instead of ans. I'd get rid of x too...

That's because on line 22 you abnormally terminate the program. Don't do that.

Good job!

BTW, what compiler are you using? I had to pull out my old TP4 to compile it...

I'm sorry, but I've already given you the answer without actually writing code. You'll have to think about it yourself now...

Good luck.

Forget the 4 digits thing. You are trying to skip a step. (Though you may not realize it...)

Just take a single digit at a time. For binary, it should be a zero or a one.


i, n, foo: integer;...

You've already got code that converts octal to a number (which you call OctToDec).

Remember, "octal", "decimal", etc. --these are not numbers. They are strings. Only people read and write strings....

Heh heh heh... Glad you got it working.


That, my friend, is a whole new can of beans. A really big, really deep one. Essentially you have to write your own cell editor. It isn't particularly...

Argh. You made me go and do this myself. I forgot how primitive a TStringGrid is... It derives from TCustomGrid but hides its DrawCell method...

Alas. I also forgot to wrap the method body in an...

1. Yep. Exactly. Sender should be sGrid.

2. Oops! It should be sGrid.DrawCell( ACol, ARow, Rect, State );
I just typed this stuff in off the top of my head...

You can resolve things like this...

No, I mean convert bin (a string) to integer. Then convert the integer to hex (another string).

I hope that makes more sense.

10110011101 is binary. You don't have to break it into anything. Just convert it to a number.

Once you get your number from the first step, convert it into hexadecimal: 59D.

Remember, the...

In your OnDrawCell event you need to choose your color based on whatever criteria you are interested in. The criteria may apply to more than one cell, even.


procedure TForm1.sGridDrawCell(
...

What?

You'll have to write that function yourself.

For hexadecimal, remember that the values of the digits are:
digits: values
0..9: 0..9
A..F: 10..15

So the DigitToInt( 'C' ) should return the...

Remember, a char is a different type than an integer. You cannot add or multiply characters.

Also remember, the point is that the digits 0, 1, 2, 3, ... are representations of numbers, not numbers...

Hmm, sorry. I thought I responded to this already.

You'll have to set the DefaultDrawing property to false, and provide a method for the OnDrawCell event.

Here's an example I googled....

I've already given you all the help I can without giving you the answer. You have to use your brain now.

Think about what you know about converting binary to decimal, and apply the same logic to...

You are very close.

You need to move line 22 up before line 19.
On line 19 you accidentally used the wrong variable. (Also, is the same as strDigit := strBin[intLoop].)

The difference between...

We won't do your homework or reply offline.

However, I can help you think through your problem.

A number is a number is a number is a number, no matter how it is represented for us humans. 10...

That C code is a mess. And it is dangerous because it uses bitfields (which C++ does not guarantee to be packed in any specific order -- so results vary by compiler!).

Alas, why don't programmers...

It comes with time.

Sorry, for the error. I accidentally mixed C and Pascal. The line should read
Timer1.Tag := n div 10;

The "extended" is the IEEE 80-bit Extended Precision floating point...

Make sure your form class looks something like this:

type
TForm1 = class(TForm)
...
public:
{ Public declarations }
procedure sendNsecondsWorthOfBtoNotepad( n: integer );
...

That timer event will not work like you expect. The Int10 is not guaranteed to have any specific value. While it may appear to work sometimes (just as a fluke of how the stack works), it will...

Hmm, that's right. (Stupid grid controls are poorly designed... they give everyone and everything grief...)

You'll have to help it along. This is what I did. (I used a tStringGrid to test.)

Set...

Ah, ye olde rodent...

Remember, a (basic) mouse only does two things: move and click (single click, that is).

So, Windows and Delphi and whatever else have to make some basic assumptions about...

You need a loop. Like repeat..until or while..do.

You can also check your answers using a case statement.

I do that all the time... :$
