You may define the maximum number of attempts made, say N. Then if the user guesses correctly in M guesses, then assign (N-M) to score. Here, better the guessing power, higher will be the value of (N-M).

I am just confused as to how to write the code to print to a txt file to save the scores.

I don't think you will need to print the txt file. You just need to save 5 high scores and the respective usernames in a txt file. Then, whenever a user scores higher than the lowest high score, update the high score list by making appropriate changes in the txt file.

Hope this helps.

After that, you could go for bingo, reversi, go, poker etc.

I THINK SO!!!

I think you are right.

Although the use of goto is discouraged, one can use it over here just as an answer to this problem.

boyz is banned. I thought this thread would be closed.

We will try to help you once you have selected a topic and have a problem. For selecting the topic, introspect. Have an idea about the level of difficulty of you are willing to handle. Then try google for finalizing the topic.

I should have written

right. but he does not need to use cout in order to manipulate arrays. though, what you said is very much right.

then. Okay?

right. but he does not need to use cout in order to manipulate pointers. though, what you said is very much right.

Make sense?

It makes perfect sense. But, as jwenting has said, innovative designs are confusing as they are non-standard. That is, your customers would take some time in being swift at using it and utilising the speed advantage you have given to them. So, people will be reluctant to use it. I hope I'm clear.

compiler does not let me put a const int value into the int pointer 3 dim array

I don't think there should be any problem with that, i.e. if you have diagonised the bub correctly.

As a "newbie" isn't this a little ambitious?

I'd be tempted to say over ambitious.

There are already so many softwares for it, what would be so special with yours ?

Correct. Also, you are very vague in your ideas.

Not

in the right thread

,

but in the right forum ;)

Also, this thread contains nothing specific to C++ & so, it should be posted in the C forum.

If you want to modify the original program minimally,

*ptr + 1 = 20; // set arr[1] to 20

should be rewritten as

*(ptr + 1) = 20; // set arr[1] to 20

This is because * has higher precedence than +. Also interchange lines 13 & 14.

while(ptr >= arr)
{
cout << *ptr << endl;
ptr--;
}

must be modified to

ptr=arr;
while(ptr <= arr+2)
{
cout << *ptr << endl;
ptr++;
}

However, I believe Sturm is referring to people who aren't exactly breaking DaniWeb's rules, but that he simply has an issue with their threads/posts, and wishes not to see them (at all).

Okay, I'm sorry. I've now realised that Sturm & I were talking about different things. Once again, Sorry.

Minimising the distance travelled by the finger would simultaneously increase the number of hits that you have to make with the finger. Frankly speaking, I don't think this project has any practical application, unless it is a compulsory question given for your homework.

And how do I call on the variables?

Inside the return(String.format()), use the get methods that you have defined for each data field to refer to data like NameIn, ArtistIn, NumberIn... etc.

Does it make sense to format a String for all the variable?

I didn't insist you to do that.

it's not used much. It's been available for like 4 years now, I use Java 1.5 professionally on a daily basis, and I've never encountered it outside web articles listing the new features of 1.5.
Even most books dealing specifically with 1.5 (and were written after it hit the street) don't so much as mention it.

One of the less successful things Sun did to Java before 1.6.

Yup, perhaps that is the reason I had never heard about it before ;)

Yup, this really helped a lot :)

Hey,

I am in full agreement with Sturm. There must be a feature so that members can be banned. I think that atleast you should have a look at these threads and take necessary actions.

Arguments of strcmp() should both be char pointers. In your case, the first argument is a char, which causes this error.

Ah! It is the compiler again. I used TC++ 3.0. I think that it is time for me to switch over to gcc. Thank you :)

By the way, you should have posted this in the C forum. There is nothing specific to C++ in this thread.

I have had another idea to approuch this.

That is similiar to what I suggested to you over here http://www.daniweb.com/forums/thread98034.html

Search for your problem before posting. It is likely that someone might have faced the same problem earlier.

This is the limit, he is repeating the same thing over here.

Some one responsible at DaniWeb should have a look at this.

zandiago is right. You are having so many questions in C, C++ & Java at a time. And half of them are ill-framed, the other half insisting others to do your homework.

Utter non-sense.

I wonder why this thread is not closed...

How dare he?! This does not make sense at all! He is reposting the question I had asked some time back in a separate thread. Does he think the people at DaniWeb are fools ?? He is filling the C and C++ forums also with silly questions. Hopefully he will be banned.

You are approaching the problem in a very roundabout manner. Try something like this.

double no,a[10]; // Try using dynamic memory allocation here.
int i;
// Let the user input value of no here.
no=360/no; // equal spacing between each array element.
for(i=1;i<=no;i++)
{
	a[i]=sin(PI*i*no/180);
}
// Display a[i] here.

>a[10]=360/a[x]

Didn't understand why.

>int a[[B][U]30[/U][/B]]; //array called a which has 100 integers

How 100?

You can do this thing by accessing VDU memory. But, this will be text mode. I do not know how to do the same thing in graphics mode?

char far *vdu;
int main()
{
	int mm_choice;
	#ifdef MA
		vdu=(char far *)0xb0000000L;
	#else
		vdu=(char far *)0xb8000000L;
	#endif
.............
}

>pappping

what is that?

The question itself is wierd. Why do you want to use a linked list for adding two longs when you can do the same without using it?

You can do something like this:

if(printf("Hello"))
{
}

#define _ -F<00||--F-OO--;
int F=00,OO=00;
main()
{
	F_OO();
	printf("%d %d\n",F,OO);
	printf("%1.3f\n",4.*-F/OO/OO);
}
F_OO()
{
            _-_-_-_
       _-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_
    _-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_
  _-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_

    _-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_
        _-_-_-_-_-_-_-_
            _-_-_-_
}

Still, I'm not able to understand this part of the printf statement.

printf("%1.3f\n",[B][U]4.*-F/OO/OO[/U][/B]);

The global variables F & OO are modified by the function F_OO(). I agree that

F is modified each statement, but OO is only modified once per line.

Surprisingly, when I put a printf statement in between to get values of F & OO, both F & OO turn out to be -16 and the final output is 0.250.
How can F & OO be eqaul if

F is modified each statement, but OO is only modified once per line.

is true?

Thank you :). That really helped me a lot.

a on line 3 is local to main(), while the scope of a in line 6 is limited to the while loop. Inside the while loop, the most local variable is given preference. And if you change a inside the while loop, the value of a on line 3 will remain unaffected. Try it out by using printf statements in between.

i think a in 3rd line is not global its local to the main function and if you change the value of a in the 6th line or ne where inside the program it will display the new value...

ABSOLUTELY WRONG !!!

Use code tags :D

Hey you are not a newbie; how could you post it in the C forum?!

Considering that you are talking about C++, the problem you are facing can be eliminated by using friend functions.

You misunderstood me. I've already learned basic-level C programming. When I came across this program, I was very much curious to know how it works. I love the intricacies of the language. Once again,

I would really appreciate if someone knows and could explain how the program works.
