Quantity is not always the best criteria for evaluating sources of information.

Are you opening the output file in binary mode?

[edit]Another curiosity that I did no investigation of...

Issues when building with mingw:

This includes the cast you've already corrected. So it's mostly just that anonymous struct you may want to look at.

The thing with using lint is knowing which diagnostic messages you can turn off in general. Stuff that gets repeated hundreds of times and relates to something the programmer verifies is not an...

Or change the scope of i. Remember to return a value. And to initialize sum.

No.

Spot the difference:
cout << (first_name, last_name);
cout << concat(first_name, last_name);
Same thing. Pick your favorite.

Yeah. Some the copying should be done a bit different from what you have. Some ideas:
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
int count, i, j = 0, k = 0;
...

You can't do this in the declaration:
const double PI = 3.1416;
Initialize PI in the constructor...
class Circle

How about something along this line?
nclude <iostream>
#include <fstream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
ifstream iptilvar("ip.txt"); //open filestram
string line, ip;

My assistance has been subpar tonight. Try this:
void loadFileToArray (string namesArray[], double gradesArray[][4], int &numberOfStudents)
{
string filename;
ifstream inputDataStream;

Keep track of the index of the highest value while taking input. Initialize to the first element:
int hi = 0;
When you find a new highest value, capture the index:
if ( votes[i] >...

That happens to be true for the garden variety PC of today, but it is not true as a generic statement.

Use integers.

#include <iostream>
#include <cmath>

int main()

cout << "RAND_MAX = " << RAND_MAX << "\n";
return 0;
}

You can't pass an array by value ("the whole array"). When you "pass an array", you instead pass a pointer to the first element. What I believe you are doing is writing to a random memory location...

Well, choose your poison: multiple passes of the same file, or a single read with a buffer. Both are relatively simple, I'd recommend just examining what's there. Experiment a bit. Learning to code...

You're going to return from main in one of two places:
int main ()
{
int number;
int counter = 0;
int flags = 1;
bool flag_none = true;
bool fag_yes = false;

cout << "Enter a number,...

Just sayin'.
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
/* Extract value for # of elements in array */
int i;

for ( int x=0; x<3; x++ );
Do you know what the semicolon does to your intended loop?

template <typename Comparable>
typename LeftistHeap<Comparable>::LeftistNode*
LeftistHeap<Comparable>::merge( LeftistNode *h1, LeftistNode *h2)?

You kinda need to know whether the binary contains LE or BE data.

Where'd the 28 go and the 20 come from?

Some starters: Sort out your confusion about strings and numbers. Assignment is =, comparison is ==. Multiline blocks are not determined by indentation in this curly-brace language.

And this differs from using push_back with some "default" strings how?

My "Ballpark?" example was how I understood the question neithan was asking:

Ballpark?

Sooner or later you'll need to learn that this is the wrong thing to do. Generally you want to put the interface (class definition, function prototypes, etc.) in the header, and put the...

Folks might find it helpful if you'd post "Plot.h".

If you made a toy program in which you printed val in hex and then the resulting tmp in hex, do you think it would shed some light on it?

[edit]Hm. Maybe not. It doesn't look like the greatest...

The first suggestion worked dandy for me, starting with the code you posted. I'd recommend trying the suggested remedies again.

Maybe observe the output first?
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>

int main()
{
std::ifstream file("file.txt");
std::string line;
while ( getline(file,line) )
{

(Q1) No. AND is not used to toggle a bit, it is used to clear a bit.
0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1
& 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0

0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0
If the last bit were already a zero, it would not...

No subtraction, it's error checking.

Since it seems to be lingering: 16 decimal is 10 hex, which is 10000 in binary; 15 decimal is 0F hex, which is 1111 in binary.

Since I don't see the problem with the one set of code, I'm wondering if it's in the other. Do you see the blank line when you open "appointment.txt" in an editor? Or when you're working with the...
