Motherboards have a speaker on them, that's where the POST beeps come from. If you're getting beeped during operations, it's usually a sign of some problem. Overheating is a common cause. You should check with your computer/motherboard maker for the meaning of the beep codes.

stilllearning's third example could lead to problems, as you're allocating memory in the function, and may not remember to delete it later. The fourth example doesn't need the address of operator, just return the string. It doesn't need to be created with the new operator, string objects will size themselves …

lexigraphically - I take that to mean strings sorted or compared. Is that how your nodes are named? Perhaps a bit more information would help.

First off, decide on your data structure(s) and stick with that. You have two 1D arrays for the scores declared, but have a three of your functions set up for 2D arrays. In those functions, your declaration of the the array parameter is probably what's throwing the error you mention …

It helps if you point to the offending line. I'm supposing it's this: [code] char message[] = the_date[12]; [/code] What you're attempting here is to allocate an array of char and you want it to be initialized to the contents of the date string. This fails on two counts. First, …

Depends on the complexity of programs. For the most part, your plain c++ code should run OK on 2005. If you try to build the full project built in '03 on the '05 system, first it will need to convert the project files (not the code file) - generally painless.

OK, this is a sneaky one. First of all, you've made a big error when you're loading the y and z arrays - you start their loops at a value other than 0. Look at your code below: [code] for(int i=0; i < 50; i++)// this is { x[i] = …

The loop in reverse( ) never stores a new value of temp after the initial value. How can this reverse the full array (or subset)? And, this is C code, not C++. Please use the correct forum.

Your first argument to pow( ) must be one of the floating point types (float, double, long double). If your code is such that you really want/need 'c' to be an integer type, then do a typecast in the function call, such as [icode]ans = pow( (double)c, m-1 );[/icode] (yes, …

Life is easier if you do array access and the loop accessing its elements starting at element 0. If you want to show the user numbering starting at 1, do so in the display. [code=c++] int i; int arr[3] = { 0 }; for( i = 0; i < 3; …

If it's a solved problem, how come you can't find the solution? You learn by doing, even if it's something that's been done a jillion times before. "Ground control, this is the pilot. This landing thing's been figured out before, I'm gonna go back and chat up the flight attendant."

What about a break statement in the if == country block, otherwise, the for loop continues and adds the entry to the next available slot as well. Or the problem could be that you've got a woman winning a men's event? ;)

You should check that the file actually opened. [code] read.open(filename_user.c_str(), ios::in); if( ! read ) { //error handler here } else while(getline(read, linecount, '\n')) { ++lc; } [/code] Are you sure the data file is in the place where your program is looking for it?

study your math operators more closely. read the compiler error - it should be telling you something useful, as well as pointing out the offending line. Bet it's this one: [icode]module= target % i;[/icode] Why doesn't the compiler like doubles there?

Does your data file end with a newline? That is, after typing "12", do you hit the enter key? When using eof( ) to test for end of data, that's usually a crucial requirement of the data file. Try controlling your loop thusly: [code] while( Entrada >> num1 >> num2 …

At some point do you allocate memory to the array? Keep track of the sizes you used. When filling the array, is it filled completely, or does the data end at some lesser point? Keep count of how many elements read in.

istream.get( ) takes the address of a [b]signed[/b] char. You're reading in values that look like they should be interpreted as unsigned char. Something like 0x93 is a negative value in terms of a signed char, thus the leading f's. If you use the extraction operator in stead of .get( …
