Your program "hangs" here:
scanf(" %.2f", &bal);
Actually, it's not really hanging. It's just waiting for input.

I'd say you're making this more complicated than it needs to be. Use one balance...

If you have more than one statement within an if/else/else if, you need braces around the block.
if ( newBalance < 0)
{
printf("***I am sorry, you have bounced this check. $10 will be");
...

execvp()

The real reason you're having problems with your code is you're trying to modify a string literal:
>printf("ID: %d\n", getCommandId("move"));

You never allocated space for "move", so who knows...

printf takes a formatting string as its first parameter. You probably meant:
printf( "%d\n", bytes_received );

Just because you're wrong doesn't mean I hate you. :P

While you're entitled to your own opinion, that statement is just BS. There are perfectly acceptable reasons why you would...

>Prototypes don't go inside other functions.
Wrong. Prototypes don't usually go inside other functions.

And you can write a termios.h solution that will be broken on every non-POSIX system....

You forgot to allocate memory for your structures. Yes, you're allocating memory for the pointers inside the objects, but before you can do that you need to allocate memory for the entire object....

No. The purpose of a struct is so that you can keep numerous sets of data organized. You can now do the following:

struct Object3D* box;
struct Object3D* table;

Change functions that modify...

Make a structure for your objects:
struct Object3D {
int ***facets;
float ***vertices;
int *nFacets;
int *nVertices;
int numObjects;

... /* add all variables specific to your...

I have no idea what you mean by 'classes' (are you really programming in C?), but in general you should put structures and function prototypes in your headers, then #include them into whatever...

Try converting the string to a long int first with strtol():
val = strtol( argv[1], NULL, 10 );

It's also a good idea to set errno=0 before calling the function; you can then check it afterward...

You've got smart quotes “ instead of straight quotes ". Did you write that code in a word processor?

>am I correct?
Let's put it this way. Forget the pointers, below is a decimal representation of some memory, each value is one byte (so each value can hold 256 different values, in this case 0-255)....

>So now when i'm casting buffer void *s to long long, what would happen to that 5 bytes
Nothing. In 32 bit software, pointers are always 4 bytes. When you're casting pointer types, the compiler...

>well.... maybe it's a pedantic exercise assigned by his professor?
If that were the case, performance wouldn't be an issue in the first place.

Just to show you how much performance you didn't gain by trying to optimize, I benchmarked your x_bzero() function against memset, each clearing out 100 kilobytes of data. memset is more than 10...

>since I'm zeroing 2 -> 8 bytes and rest I'm not zeroing, why my buffer is all zero?
It's not. It only zeroes out 8 bytes at a time. You probably assumed the entire string was zeroed when you tried...

So in your calling function, create an array with an arbitrary size large enough to hold all the inputs your program will ever use:
TypeAudioInput audioinputs[200];


Then you can pass an...

What are you trying to do? Variable names are largely irrelevant; they're just a means of accessing memory in your system. Learn about pointers and you'll understand how this works.

>}while(again != y && again != n);
You need to put single quotes around y and n.

Before your declarations you assigned 'choice' to 0. That counts as execution.

No, you're wrong, the OP is correct. The goal of the loop is to keep asking the user until valid input is entered (Y or N). The initial mistake was made by using OR instead of AND, because you want...

>theMenu[0].menuItem[LENGTH]=" [1] Chicken A";
That won't work either. You'll have to strcpy the strings into the character arrays, or point each node of menuItem to a string literal and then make...

>choice = getData(int);
You're getting the error because getData needs an actual integer to be passed to it. Then again, making getData() take parameters which it doesn't actually use makes no...

That's because the memory address contained in the pointer is lost when the function is popped off the stack. In other words, you can modify the value that the pointer points to, but you can't modify...

A couple of other notes:

- void main is evil (http://users.aber.ac.uk/auj/voidmain.shtml). Don't use it.
- You shouldn't have your function prototype inside main(). Move line 13 to somewhere...

Not in that way. If you want to dynamically allocate memory, you would have to use malloc or calloc to allocate a chunk of...

Try putting the declaration of difflatt at the beginning of your program (before execution begins with printf).

When I put the code into my compiler, I received the same errors you described. Funnily enough, when I removed the *s, those errors disappeared.

When you pass arrays, you pass the pointer, not the entire array. And you can't declare variables inside a function. Thus, your function call would look like:
sort_date(Acc, n);

The problem that you're experiencing is that getchar() only grabs a single character from the input buffer. This would be fine, except that there's still a newline left in the input buffer that...

Post your code.

Can I have it? Pleeease? :icon_mrgreen:

>This code doesn't actually store anything in my array, does it?
Of course it does. You just aren't printing out any of the values you stored.

Try this at the end of GetID():

>GetID(students,StoreID[],i);
That's not how you pass arrays. Remove the [], and you'll pass the address of it.
