i haven't tested it, but it looks right. so, what's your question? didnt the site you downloaded the programs from give you some instructions?

just to start, i notice a couple things: [code]warning: return type of ‘main’ is not ‘int’[/code] "void main" is wrong. don't do it. [code]warning: the `gets' function is dangerous and should not be used.[/code] NEVER EVER USE GETS. ever. fix those things and we can move along.

theres no standard way to do this. it totally depends on your environment. for instance, a POSIX solution might look like this [code]#include <stdio.h> #include <dirent.h> int main (void) { DIR *dir_ptr; struct dirent *entry_ptr; if (dir_ptr = opendir ("./")) { while (entry_ptr = readdir (dir_ptr)) printf("%s\n",entry_ptr->d_name); closedir (dir_ptr); } …

[QUOTE=ssDimensionss;854810] I know how to isolate the 16bits on the 32bit instruction, by shitfting it 16bits left the shifting it 16bits right again. [/quote] that's not how you do it. AND it with a bitmask [icode] 0x00FF[/icode] to get the lower 16 bits out of the instruction and copied into …

(1) this is C. not C++. check the forum and post appropriately. (2) your code snippet doesn't even remotely begin to answer the question. obviously you didn't read the forum, but did you even read his question? did you even read the title of the thread? (3) generally speaking we …

Kudos to using code tags correctly for your first post! :) but i dont understand the goal, here.... i see that you read player's names ... but where's the "random matchup" of teams come into play, and what's that got to do with the players?

[QUOTE=ks7_666;853489]i figured how 2 solve q4 now but i tried 2 solve 1,2,3 i cant do anything .[/QUOTE] bull crap. you did [B]not[/B] just spontaneously "figure out" how to write the code for Q4, and yet still remain completely helpless to even begin Q1 - Q3. because Q4 combines all …

[QUOTE]Ok i got 3 errors now, and im using Boreland C++. Teacher made me declare the variables globally, as im going to be using it throughout the functions.[/QUOTE] How curious... your teacher requires Borland complier and to globally defined variables. tell me, what school do you go to?

[QUOTE]At this stage I wouldn't bother de-globalizing your variables[/QUOTE] when would you suggest he start "de-globalizing" his design process? the inappropriate use of globals (ie 98% of the time) is one of the major systemic contributors to buggy, unmaintainable code. remove those globals now and get the pain over with …

how to use [code] tags? specifically, how do i type the opening and closing code tags in my post, as an example, without causing the code tags to activate? like this: [quote] HEY NOOB! USE CODE TAGS, AIGHT??? [B]<code=c>[/B] int main(void) { // your noob code here return 0; } …

i actually worked at a place that used a Caesar Cipher to encrypt user passwords for the operators who ran the production equipment. and the "encrypted" password file was stored locally on every production computer. no joke. my first day there, i was like.... "LOL, WUT?" :-O

hi, elie, glad youre here. hope you stick around and join the discussions.

[QUOTE]Maybe there is another way of writing information into the output file.[/QUOTE] yeah... that would be the Standard C Library command,[URL="http://www.cppreference.com/wiki/c/io/fprintf"] fprintf()[/URL] not the C++ specific command you're trying to blindly force into the C program.

not sure why the trailing NULLs are a problem. they probably existed in the memory before program startup, or were initialized in some manner during execution. the first NULL after "2:00 pm" signals the end of the string. why do you care that there are more than one? anything after …

sounds great. i think several forums will welcome your expertise. FWIW, i almost got stampeded by some Buffalo in yellowstone park. i also dig Buffalo wings. :P

C++ allows different definitions of pow() based on the type of argument. your problem appears to be that you're calling them with integer arguments which is ambiguous as it allows the pow() to fit more than one version. try casting the args as doubles: [icode]pow(2.0, (double)bBita - 1 - i);[/icode] …

wish you'd use [code=c] tag for syntax highlighting. much easier to read.

generally speaking: [code=c] int * myPointer; int myValue; ... myValue = *myPointer; [/code] myValue now contains a copy of the value that is at the location currently pointed to by the pointer, myPointer. is this what you're asking? .

Hello, NickAx: it's so hard to take you seriously when you can't even spell "meat" correctly. anyhow, [URL="http://www.religioustolerance.org/easter1.htm"]Happy Eostre[/URL], everyone. .

wow! sounds cool. I think you scared everyone away! no seriously, welcome and I hope you stick around. sounds like you've got a lot of insight that could be quite helpful to people with tech and programming questions. and, who knows, maybe someone here might be able to help you. …

hello and welcome. look forward to seeing you on the forums!

well, howdy backatcha, Tex. i remember using a Tandy when i was a kid. TRS-80. It hooked up to a TV. i dont remember the "sensation", though. welcome to daniweb. i see you've gotten started already! :)

welcome and good luck to you. dont think i can help you much with 3G mobile, but maybe you can teach me something.

certifications are mostly a waste of time, except perhaps Cisco. in any event, dont waste your own money on them. that said, an entry level IT support is not going to "make the employer pay for" 3rd party certifications. one option would be a 1-year program at a local community/tech …
