No. I stay quite a far far distance from it :D :D
Do you love to see the Sun Rise early in the morning ? [ I do!!!!!!!!! ] ...

First of All, a Warm Welcome to you!! :D
PCI --> Peripheral Connect Interface , its a slot in your motherboard of ur PC where various addon cards go in. Like the Sound Cards, LAN cards, etc etc.
And no its not a virus. Its a message telling you a New Hardware ( like may be a lancard, a soundcard ? etc ) has been added. And windows need to find a corresponding driver for it.

And everyone starts out with Ignorance, nothing to be sorry about. If u do not know it, well if you make an honest effort to know it then everything is fine.
Hope you have a nice stay!

Hmm, I think you might like Amaenaideyo!! then. The best romantic comedies tend to be manga rather than anime, like Kare Kano, Hana Kimi, and W Juliet.

Noted !! ;)
They r next in line.. ;)
I also Forgot.. dammit how cud I ?:$
I luved the few episodes I watched of Inu yasha!!

Damn! I hv to get hold of that one, how the heck cud I have forgotten abt it ? :$

lol
Hey thanx 4 all giving me tips here, but I have already figured out how to do the compilation and running the codes at VC++ platform.
I just posted this thread to give the link to the wonderful video @ MSDN , and let others know how my problem was solved.
:D:D

That's a pretty sudden switch. Aren't both Onegai Teacher and Onegai Twins romantic comedies?

Heh... i agree with you here, totally a reverse turn. But what can I say ? I am a hopelessly romantic guy , plus the little bit ecchi there didn't hurt either :P

What all day watching those Axn animes , those comedies were a wonderful change.
I am thinking of watching the Getbackers next, i missed it when they aired it here. :(
I also watched 2 ep of xxxHolic , and perhaps later will continue with it.

Bleach
Naruto
FMA
Samurai Champloo
Samurai 7
Onegai Teacher
Onegai Twins
Hellsing
Samurai X
:D
I love Anime !

Any ways, what u desire is the circumference of the incircle ? Right ?

Largest circle that can be drawn inside a triangle is called an Incircle.
refer to http://www.mathopenref.com/triangleincircle.html
Not circumference of a triangle.

Thanks :D for such a warm welcome..
yes you people are one heck of a helping community. :D

"Triangle with Rounded Corners" ? I do not get it.
I think what he meant was the perimeter of the Triangle.
There is no such technical term as Circumference of a Triangle. There is however the Circumference of a Circle.
With all due respect Ancient Dragon, I think you should get your facts checked before berating someone, what with your stature here. It doesn't look good.
However if someone means the Perimeter of a Triangle , calling it the circumference would be incorrect.

Thanks WaltP ...
system("PAUSE") <--- was a gr8 tip.

Circumference of a Triangle ? WTF !!!
Now ... why your program didnot Run.

using namespace std;

should be Global in scope . Meaning outside block of any function. If you do not define the namespace globally, u will have to use std::cin , std::cout inside every function.

area = sqrt(s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c));

1st , s*(s-a)*(s-b)*(s-c) is the correct way.
In CPP , product of two variables is signified by a*b , * is the multiplication operator.
2nd. sqrt is a library function found in the header file cmath,

double sqrt (      double x );
float sqrt (       float x );
long double sqrt ( long double x )

So s, a , b ,c must be defined as float.
consequently, in the main , side1,side2,side3 should also be defined as float.
or double as u choose.

Now lets come to the main.

cout << "The area of the triangle is " << area(side1, side2, side3) << endl;

area is a void function.. returns nothing. so printing it in the console is moot point.
Had area been a funtion having return type as float, then the above code may had some effect provided u had returned the area ffrom the function.

the modiefied code can look something like :

#include <iostream>
#include <cmath>
#include <cstdlib>
using namespace std;
void area(float a, float b, float c )
{
float area;
float s;
s = ((a + b + c)/2); 
if …

HEY!
U posted "a survey program" thread too...
its the same problem!!! Keep one thread for one problem.

I Want To Use A For Loop To Enter Three Answers From Three Questions But My Problem Is I Don't Have An Idea Coz I'm New To This C++ Language Please Help? THE LOOP STARTS TO COUNT FROM 100

A Basic For Loop would be like :

for(i=0;i<n;i++)
{
cout<<"I am new to c++"<<"\n";
}

Now it would be better if you explain your question a bit more clearly.
Loop Starts to count from 100 ? Up or Down ?
You want to enter 3 answers for 3 questions. So why would you need to count from 100 anyways ?

I recently started dabbling with Visual C++ Express Edition 2005. Was stuck at the very onset! LOL!
How to Create a console application using Visual C++ Express 2005 ??
I could create the project, included the files..did all.. build it nice and clean.. but how to run [ make ] the damn thing ?
Had me flustered!!
On to google and i found a nice video from the MSDN.
Many newbies face the same problem like me, I checked out various posts at various places.. facing the same problem.
So here is the link:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/visualc/aa445857.aspx

There are four videos on the page, the last one is
Create a Console Application from an Empty Project in Visual C++ Express (4 Minutes - 3.4 MB)

Hope this helps the newcomers... and ease their transition to the wonderfull IDE that is Visual C++ Express 2005 is.
Note: I also njoy working on Code::blocks too, just trying out VC++ ..

Hi Everybody here,
I am a Final year student of Computer Science and Engineering.
Bumped onto your site while finding a simple solution. I was googling for a comprehensive guide to generating Random numbers when i saw the link to your forum.
http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread1769.html
Thanks To BOB i felt that I must become member of this wonderfull community of smart people.
Now comes the part where I had to decide on a decidedly geeky name .lol.
The IDE I really liked for developing C++ programs was Code::Blocks .
And it came bundled with MiniGW compiler. I used it for quite sometime, and my project was really aided by this nice utility.
So to pay respect to the community responsible for developing miniGw ..I chose the name "minigweek" .
Hoping to have a nice and fullfilling stay here. I browsed around the forum, and found ppl very friendly and understanding here.
Signing off...
Dani and the team is doing really gr8 here! Thanks!
