Why would you start a thread in the Geek's Lounge and then say this? I mean what's the point of starting a thread if you don't want other peoples' opinions?

Get the count
Calculate the sum
From the count and the sum, calculate the average.
From the average, get each deviation (error).
Square each deviation (squared error).
Add up the squares...

Code tags and formatting please. The code is unreadable now as it is.

Before you can work on the borrowing function, you need to set up your ArrayLists correctly.

Yeah, I don't see the word "extends" in your Java code, so I'm doubtful of the inheritance. firstPerson is right regarding pointers and pass-by-value. I'd have to see the overall set-up, but you're...

Can't test it since you haven't provided the input file. My best advice for now is that you need to make sure you're reading in the data in the first place. It looks like the first thing read in on...

Yes, you are correct. Thanks for pointing that out. I was thinking of the time(time_t*) (http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/clibrary/ctime/time/) function. I was pretty sure it would not be a...

Not very difficult. It's far harder to pull off the trick as the person typing in the question.

But you're in the wrong forum. It's definitely not C++. Go to "View Page Source" and you'll see...

Without seeing the function calls and the class and the exact assumptions regarding what you can assume as far as data, plus whatever else may be going on with the stream, I'm not 100% sure what the...

Close on the code tags. Note the / (slash) on the ending tag:

You need to find "s" OR find "ing", not both. If you have "standing", you want to end up with "stand",...

If you read it in as a c-style string, you can use getline and specify 6 characters (5 + 1) maximum. Or use get () five times.

Open the file.
Read all or part of the file into variable(s).
Display the variable(s).
Repeat steps 2 and 3 till end of file.

You're going to have to clarify. Do you have some executable program, originally written in C++, that you want to run at, say 2 p.m.? All sorts of languages can be used to cause this to happen, not...

That's the main problem, I think. I'm not crazy about the syntax-defaulting the way it is now, but since I know about it, I can get around it when I want to. However, the code syntax defaulting has...

Runs fine for me using 1235 and 3459 as input. They're sum buddies and are reported as such. What input is not working for you?

The devil is in the details and you have dots there so it's unclear whether there is some sort of pattern. You have this line in a previous post:



Replacing "A" with "test",

You say id has...

I'll reiterate what I said in my last post. The code is not going to compile with terms like A[0].b in it and it has nothing to do with whether you use if-statements or switch statements. A is a...

If you can get it to work without a function, it's a matter of converting that code so that it's inside of a function. Post the code that works where it's all in main.

That's what "return" does. It takes you back to main, to the place right after where you called the medic function, which puts you back in the main function. So if the person enters 2 in the medic...

Do NOT call the main() function. If you want to repeat, your program should look something like this (starting at line 61):


do
{
// display user's options
// ask user to input option.

http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/clibrary/cstdlib/system/

"system" is in cstdlib, not iostream.

But you're right. That's not the problem. You need to proofread your posts. The error isn't...

Lines 20, 88. Arrays already are passed by reference. Get rid of the ampersand:


void medic(int & money, int & potionsize[5]);


Delete the ampersand in red above on line 20 and on line 88....

If you use "system", you should import cstdlib, because that's the library "system" is from.

But don't use system ("PAUSE") anyway. Use cin.get() once or twice instead.
...

I think you need to give an example. What's idnum? How does one determine yearbirth from idnum? idnum is an int. There's no "int" class, so the dot operator won't work.


idnum.subint (0,2);
...

You should replace A with test everywhere inside your function body. A is a type. test is the variable itself. test is an array, not A. You cannot dereference A with the [] operator because...

Looks good to me. Try it out. Does it work?

I'm not sure than sum[] array is initialized except for index 0. also, there is no call to srand, so I imagine you'd get the same results every time. You need to initialize the sum[] array before...

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
int TESTS = 0;
int testScore[TESTS];
int testNum = 0;
int a;
double total = 0;

a, b, and c. What's the difference between "set" and "store and set"? I assume you want the normal "set" and "get" function for each of the three private variables. So at minimum, three private...

One, code tags. Use them.

Two, Where's the error and what is it? Point out a line number.

Beat me to it!

Common problem when mixing >> and getline. You need to flush the input stream before the getline command to get rid of the pesky '\n' left by the >> operator. See the ignore page from cin, and see...

You're simply merging two files that are ALREADY in order into one output file. Hence only very minimal storage is required (one value from each input file), so vectors are overkill. Have two...

That's what I don't understand. Seeding seems necessary to me here. Isn't it necessary to seed the random number generator if you want good results?

I'm intrigued. Why would you consider not seeding the RNG here?

These lines are not being skipped. The Fahrenheit values are 32 larger than the Celsius values, which suggests that at least part of the equation is working. Comment the lines out and pick a...

Code tags are simply this.

Five down votes on this one? Seems a bit extreme. As Best Jew points out, probably not the best forum to post on with this question, but it's still a reasonable question. But not knowing you and...

This is what I've been harping on since the major change-over at Daniweb. Java code is now flagged as C++ code instead of plain-old code if you don't specify Java-specific code tags. It...
