I am having a problem displaying random numbers, I'm trying to make a dice game where you play against the computer and the first one to 100 wins. However, my random number is never random, it always comes out as the same number. From what I understand to simply display …

alright, well the code I have is a complete mess and there HAS to be a better way of doing it as well.... it's right here [CODE]#include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> int toExit(int exit){ while(exit != 1 || exit !=2){ printf("\n\nPlease Choose:\n1) Exit\n2) Run program again\nYour choice: "); scanf("%d", &exit); printf("\n"); …

I have to calculate the number of days between two dates the hard way. I know there is already a way to do this with an existing package and such but I have to do it within a single method "daysBetween" without altering any other part of the code. The …

Is it even possible to create a singly linked list using a function outside of main and then access it once you leave the function? pseudo: [CODE]#include //whatever needs to be included function{ \\create and link lists in this function } main{ funtion()//call function to create lists and link properly …

I'm having a problem parsing information stored in the buffer after a getline command. I have a file with data in the format: [ICODE]1310 76102 C 5 27 2011 6 26 2011 5 R R 8.00 20.00 F R 8.00 25.00 150 165[/ICODE] I would separate everything using white space …

I'm trying to figure out a way to create a loop to open files and read in data until either there are no more files or the user wants to stop. for example, the first time through the loop, the string variable would be "myfile_1" and then each subsequent time …

I have a string that has a bunch of white space on the end of it and was wondering if there is a simple way to eliminate the trailing white space with a standard C function. I know there is one called "String.trim" but I can't use anything that isn't …

I have two different ways to traverse a tree adt that essentially do the same thing except one is a recursive function and the other is iterative. How could I compare the efficiency between them? RECURSIVE [CODE]inorder(node) if node.left ≠ null then inorder(node.left) print node.value if node.right ≠ null then …

Aside from using switch statements, do-while loops, and if-else trees, is there a good way to complete error checking after a user input from the keyboard?

Is there a way to evaluate cosecant^2 in c? As far as I know, it isn't included in the math.h library, but could there perhaps be another one that it is included in?

I'm working on a code that will multiply two matrices and print the result. This specific code is meant to ask the user to define the bounds of the matrices (i.e. the (M)x(N) of the matrix) then ask for each matrix by row. The trouble I'm having is that I …

I finished this last night and it almost works perfectly aside from one minor thing that I can't quite figure out. [CODE] #include <iostream> #include <cstdlib> #include <ctime> using namespace std; int main() { int playerscore, computerscore; int turnscore; int dice; char input = 0; bool turnover, gameover; srand((unsigned)time(0)); playerscore …

[code] //this game is played with a six sided die, on each player's turn he may roll until he gets a 1 from the die, at which point, all points accumulated to that point are wiped, he may hold and add the accumulation to his score at any time. #include<fstream> …

Here is the simplest program: [CODE]#include <iostream> using namespace std; int main() { cout << "hello" << endl; cin.get(); return 0; }[/CODE] When I ran it (using Dev C++), there is no output, just a blank screen. The problem seems to be from the "endl". If I delete it, or …

This is a program that is meant to be a dice game with the computer, and this is what I have so far. I'm trying to make sure that I'm doing it right but I can't compile it to check because of a syntax error near the end of the …

I have a program that a friend wrote for me in Java, however I'm trying to put it in C++ and I don't know Java myself. Does anyone know somewhere that I can get it translated? Or maybe someone who has time to translate it themselves? It all looks vaguely …
