hi and welcome! hope you find what you need. don't worry about not knowing anything. letters after your name is all that matters in many businesses. the dirty secret is, most people dont really know anything either. and i personally feel stupider every day. but otherwise, cheers!

hi and welcome! hope you're finding what you need :) interesting place you work. a decent website, but it does load rather slow. bummer about your name getting filtered. I know a lot of similar stories, but most of them probably arent appropriate to tell here :)

if you want to randomize based on weighted percentages, then you need to roll a percentage, not a value from 1-6. think of something like "rand() % 100 + 1" , which gives a number from 1 to 100. or for more resolution, [iCODE]float pctRoll = (float) (rand() % 1000) …

i don't recommend atoi() or atol(). this does not handle invalid strings (non-integer strings) very well at all. for instance, if you try [code]value = atoi("CowAndChicken");[/code]the result will be zero (value = 0) and if you try [code]value = atoi("0");[/code]the result will also be zero (value = 0) strtol() avoids …

[QUOTE=retchedmonkey;1164040] im still having a rather annoying problem! ....

line 7 is the problem. a=0 is an assignment. a==0 is a conditional statement. you need to understand the difference. also, you can't test multiple conditions by throwing a comma between values. you need to fully express each condition, separated by an AND (&&) or an OR (||) as the …

are you sure you really need to use POSIX threads on Windows? The Windows API has plenty of support for multithreading [url]http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms684841%28VS.85%29.aspx[/url] but if you really do need to use the Win32 port of pthreads, you can get it from here: [url]http://sourceware.org/pthreads-win32/[/url] and a good tutorial here: [url]https://computing.llnl.gov/tutorials/pthreads/#PthreadsAPI[/url] EDIT: hmm, …
