As to your last triangle question that sounds like a "Triangle Mesh" system. https://www.google.com/search?client=opera&q=graphics+routines+from+triangles+to+polygons finds Wikipedia and more about those systems.

I'll be dating myself here but with LEX and YACC you could create a compiler in, well, almost any language you can imagine.
There are tutorials about that older than https://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/text/Lex-YACC-HOWTO

Back in the 80's we had to create such tools from scratch. Today it's rarely done as we have things like lex, yacc, libraries and more.

I want to add a thing here. Very few will write such from scratch. IRL (in real life) I see folk use libraries and toolkits. This way they can focus on their app and avoiding the need to recreate the wheel.

HOWEVER if you were on some platform that is full custom like an Arduino custom built for someone, then you get to craft it from the bottom up.

Why? Remember you wrote this code (hope that you did since I can only grok it so much) and line 42 looks to use IsOnCamera() so that point would be on camera.

https://www.google.com/search?client=opera&q=FillPosition3D+NewPosition3D%2C+Position.X+%2B+Size.Width%2C+Position.Y%2C+Position.Z+%2B+Size.ZDepth seems to show you posting across many forums. Are folk responding out there?

To me Line 42 above seems to answer the question. Wait, is this a setup for another 42 joke?

@c. The words that find so many priors and more are: hidden line algorithm

Given there are many algorithms you need to find one you can use or implement in your code.

In parting, take more care with your tags. The code does not look like it will run in all three languages you tagged with.

There are fine books about such with code examples on the web today. Here's one of many:
https://books.google.com/books?id=EdQ5DwAAQBAJ&pg=PA191&lpg=PA191&dq=a+discussion+on+drawing+3d+hiding+lines&source=bl&ots=FOLnrMr0JI&sig=ACfU3U2NE-0LSuecCJoESeX3zmvhHtdi1g&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwig7t3xiP_pAhWxHzQIHe7RC8sQ6AEwF3oECAwQAQ#v=onepage&q=a%20discussion%20on%20drawing%203d%20hiding%20lines&f=false

This looks like payware from https://geniusocean.com/demo/geniuscart/ Time to get your money's worth.

It appears you know tomfors as well!

What about letting them input what you need to know upfront rather than trying to divine the information?

Be sure to include other unusual measurements as well.

One of them is the passage of time. When someone asked how far is it to the corner grocery store, grandma answered "about the time it takes to cook rice."

But seriously, what have you done to make your app for this laptop which is networked, so the app runs on a web-browsers running Windows and specifically Windows 10?

I take it you get this information over HTTPS then never store such in the databases. If you do store it's with one way encrypted plus salt just like everyone does with name and password.

Now moving on to get in trouble, what does your lawyer say?

Think real hard about lines 34 and 71.

In line 34 you print from a certain row, then line 71 puts it into a different row. Think real hard where line 71 stored the FULL value.

Why does this look like https://www.chegg.com/homework-help/questions-and-answers/given-electrical-circuit-composed-network-resistors-arranged-parallel-series-write-program-q51421403 ?

Since you wrote the code you would in your IDE break on the line that is doing the calculation and examine the values being input and see why the answer is zero.

@Yusef. Let me write I know a bit about Apple's reset protection. That said, I don't know how to get around it since well, if that was simple you would google it and thieves would use that to get around it and we're back to as good as no protection.

So here's what I know. Apple's reset protection is REALLY GOOD! Once in a while there will be a person that writes "you don't know anything about this since you can't crack it."

To that I answer I've never had to crack it since I make the time to get to the Apple store if the onscreen link fails to get the job done.

Now if the person doesn't have a leg to stand on as in the Apple device isn't theirs, how could they complain?

Yusaf wants to delete a comment, not a post. He's a little confused about what he can do versus a moderator.

@Yusef, Apple's reset protection is really good. There are many prior discussions with many wanting to avoid a trip to the Apple store. I don't see why we need a rehash of this topic but hey, did you try the link given onscreen and go through the motions? If you didn't you must do that now.

After that, it's a trip the store which is yes a pain but hey, Apple did a great thing here to keep folk from stealing many more phones and tablets.

All that and I'm unsure about your question. I see " how did i get passed this problem? " but the words look a little off. Did you mean to ask " how do i get pass this problem? "

Apple products have reset protection so the phones and tablets are less valuable to worthless if stolen. To fix this you head to the link given and hopefully avoid a trip to the Apple store for a reset.

First the error message is correct for many HP models when there is a disk problem. HP has added their support number to that screen.
You can research that with https://www.google.com/search?&q=hp+f30+hard+disk+error

Now some want to assert the drive is OK because it works the next time. You tell them the drive is failing but some won't accept that until the drive has failed completely.

This is your chance to save what you have on that drive and clone it to another drive. I suggest a move to SSD at this time.

At 10 years it did well to get to that age. As to the battery alert that would be some software that may need installing. I can not pick this app for you but I'm sure you can research what's out there.

As to the over-heating, at 10 years you know to do a deep cleaning with canned air and replace fans that don't work like new. In this case there are many YouTube videos on laptop deep cleaning which means I can stop here on that topic.

Example article about battery alarm apps and Windows settings: https://www.addictivetips.com/windows-tips/get-alerts-when-your-laptop-battery-is-low-or-full/

PS. Another issue I find with old laptops at 2 years and on is the battery is old, tired and can't be trusted to read correctly as to remaining charge. We pick up a new battery off Amazon and correct this issue most of the time under 30 USD.

Do it with Excel? Time for you to open up your old statistics book (or the web) and put in the formulas for what you want.

Also, you need to be able to do this on paper before you do such in Excel. If you can't on paper, you won't be doing this in Excel.

This sounds like one of the basic sample size questions you cover in Statistics. You can pop that into a web site like https://www.surveysystem.com/sscalce.htm to see how many samples for 99% confidence or interval.

You need to tell a lot more. Also, I would like to see a question along with what you have so far and your database schema. As it stands, well, there is stands and not too well.

I'm one that enjoys silence most of the time.

Here's a thing about Error Codes such as this. The code does not tell you why it happened about 99% of the time. You have to think over what's different about your PC and then consider how to make it closer to what some call "a clean install." If there are no hardware issues then that works.

I'm going to edit your post to remove a common spammed site. It is not a Microsoft run site and is one of the usual sites that well, we all know should be avoided.

It appears the premise that monkeys eats bananas is incorrect as I check out http://www.bbc.com/earth/story/20150728-chimps-nearly-wiped-out-monkeys

Can't make a good app if the premises are faulty.

Given the tags you supplied I'd skip Visual Basic 6 unless you have a job offer on the table and even then, you have a few months to get up on your feet.

I know that many colleges are closed to class instruction but why not online courses? You can find them in your language with the usual searches.

Example: https://www.codecademy.com/learn/paths/computer-science has a try it for free. Not a bad way to get started.

My thought is your code is working far too hard. It looks like each string is scanned by your code 7 times over and over.

If this was mine this could be replaced with 7 calls to std:replace as noted in method 2 at https://www.techiedelight.com/replace-occurrences-character-string-cpp/

Neither for or while is required here.

Looks solved. I'm no longer seeing the issue on all browsers I tried.

Is https://code.google.com/archive/p/java-google-translate-text-to-speech/ dead now? It looks to be a few lines of code to get working.

I haven't tested it on other discussions and browsers but on the first try I now see the reply that the link was intending to show. I'll test it more today and mark solved later.

Thank you.

Wait, why the demanding tone here plus you want this in c, c++ and Pascal? Look at your tags again. Also, the title writes C++ yet you lead with "amodularC" which may be a typo or is there a development kit called by that name?

Maybe you didn't mean to do this but meant to ask for others to write and be paid by you. Try again?

Thanks again for all this work. And I got the saying wrong above. I meant "pulling the strings."

I did not scroll at all. I clicked and this is what is displayed. As it happened in three browsers and you appear to have been pulling the threads I report this and hope you know what is going on.

This is an odd thing to me to see as when I click on the link I expect the reply to show up and not have to scroll up to read it. Sorry but I didn't test on mobile.

It's all that space from the top left under the Like and Tweet down to the Reply button.

In the past when I clicked on the reply link from https://www.daniweb.com/articles/latest to get to the last/latest I would read the reply. This time I have to scroll. That is new behavior to me.

If you feel this is fine, mark this solved. I find it odd and report it in case you know what you did there.

https://www.daniweb.com/community-center/say-hello/threads/522867/hi-everyone-i-m-ianwallace79#post2261822 gets me the following:

This looks like new behavior to me. Happenned in Opera, Chrome and Firefox. Yes I can scroll back up. This is simply an observe and report, report.

That's a great question. It will take time and a lot of reading material to understand all this but if you wanted to program in assembly I would not be doing that from scratch on today's modern, say UEFI BIOS based PCs. You would be spending a year just to fill and wrap your head around that.

As to the old BIOS INT instructions these were indeed limited to basic screen, disk and other I/O operations. They are bare minimums back in the 1980's when we didn't have graphic or sound cards so there are no INT calls for graphic drawing of lines or much more than a beep on the speaker which may not exist on a modern PC.

At this point you may want to consider a smaller computer like the Arduino which is small enough for those to begin their study at the assembly level.

For KUMARI.

Please read the entire thread. Also, consider https://www.cs.uic.edu/~jbell/CourseNotes/OperatingSystems/6_CPU_Scheduling.html

Isn't that the -a option?

Noted in the documention as well as on the web many places like https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/howto-list-installed-rpm-package/

I'd have to convert the docx to the word processor I have right now. Next time use the forum's own code sharing tool (code block.)

Also no one does homework for others so I think you are asking for a tutorial on inheritance. Here's one that I used:
https://www.tutorialspoint.com/cplusplus/cpp_inheritance.htm

On topic. As far as I'm concerned and many others, there are NO N95 masks available. Also there are no KN95 masks. There are no painting masks at Home Deport (typo international) and (get) Lowes.

I placed 5 orders for the masks you see all over, two delivered and the other three cancelled by the seller.

So we eeked by with 3 masks obtained by sheer luck and now with 100 that did come in we are set for a while. Hand sanitizer was slow to come by but I lucked out by having a bottle of alcohol for wound cleansing that is 95% so with a little Aloe Vera oil we have refilled what we have and are set for the next few months.

An uncle in the extended family (adopted brother) has died of COVID-19. He had gone to the ER with symptoms and issues but they told him to go home and come back later. He was found two weeks later dead. Let's just say that the human body makes quite the mess unattended after that much time. As to why no one checked on him from the family that's an adopted brother long after we left home and they have substance abuse problems galore in that tree. I didn't know of him before this.

I think you should have commented your code as you wrote it. Unless there is more story to be told such as "I found this code and I don't understand it."

Also this seems to be a follow on to https://www.daniweb.com/programming/computer-science/threads/522826/random-generation-of-circuit#post2261672 since I see mention of resistors in this code.

The assignment as told by you there does seem to give you an excellent out. Some may call that a cheat but hey, you'll learn something like:
"Live by the specifications, die by the specifications."

Sounds like millions to me. What product needs this? Beer?

Why didn't it clone? That may be a fine clue what is going on.

The old Symantec Ghost isn't known for it's acumen. And as to a partition backup that is what it is so we never expect that partition to boot again if say one were to restore that to a drive that was wiped, the OS reinstalled and this partition restored. Long discussions why on the web so I won't write why here.

But let's break this into two things.

1. Let's say you want to try the partition thing yourself. I hope you proved me wrong as to working.
   You would get a new blank drive to install the OS onto then test that out. If that works then you clone the partitions you need and try the boot.
   Remember the rule about NEVER EVER touching the source drive as it's our last copy since well, it is according to the discussion so far.
2. There are many fine disk cloning apps out there. Linux has a few and "dd" is a common thing. Nod to https://www.google.com/search?&q=clone+a+drive+with+dd I use Linux a lot in rescue efforts. I share this a lot too. Here's an old piece of advice: http://tips.oncomputers.info/archives2004/0401/2004-Jan-11.htm but what I want to impress on you is that we don't learn Linux. We use it.
   Some tell me and I have used AOMEI's clone tool for free as well. Again, I don't duplicate the web on how to use as you can find that on your …

Hi Dani. That's a great question.

It has to do with investing, game theory and more. I've had a few times that the planets aligned (markets, events) that I went in on a speculative investment. But what some do is to buy in and ride it up but didn't think about their exit plan. For me that's when I get two and more times return. For others they may feel they need more but overall this investment returned in two waves. I researched which companies to invest in and narrowed down to three. One had already taken off so I split the investment (gamble) on those two. In ten days the gain on one was 3.21 times the investment so I sold. The second one took longer but 2 months later and over 2X gain it was time to sell. Why?

Remember those exit plans? The rules were:

1. 2 or more times gain.
2. Sell before trial results are announced if there is a gain.

The names in play were Inovio, Vaxart, Moderna and Gilead. Gilead didn't get on my list as its priced out already and then heavily pushed by Goldman Sachs. Moderna as noted had already jumped 50% the day before I thought to invest so that left me with the last two. Invovio also has an investment by Bill Gates which may turn some off but I judge not here.

This also lead to me learning a lot about RNA medicines. A very interesting topic on …

More for Naveed.

Remember that repair of an OS is never the same procedure. It varies on the damage and about half the time we find the host PC had other issues which meant the OS on the HDD/SSD was actually fine. But then the owner attempted to repair their last copy of the installed OS on that last HDD/SSD and mucked it all up so we don't get a chance to CLONE it and try recovery of the OS on the CLONE.

Yes there are some that for reasons such as money will not do the CLONE JOB but they also tend to implode as in the PC never comes back or ends up in a trash bin. We've seen it all but that doesn't mean the OS is always recoverable for this reason: What is it this time?

This is why when we approach such work:

1. A blank HDD/SSD is slipped in, a quick install of the OS is done and we test if the host PC is fine.
2. The broken OS drive is cloned, then we try the usual boot the OS install media and see if automatic repairs work. If not we are then more aware of the state of the OS, the PC and may have other ideas which I purposely am not listing here since they are driven by what you see by doing the work (i.e. clone drive, automatic repair, testing with another drive, etc.

PS. Edited for spelling error.

Compare costs of the OS and app reinstall.

For some it's cheaper to pay Microsoft for their support than pay the app vendor.

This is also a lesson about backups. Here a 2TB USB drive which for most of us can hold the OS, apps and data for many systems is under 99USD. Recovery tends to cost ten times that. You can make bet that folk can't be taught to backup. They seem to learn this lesson first hand.

PS. I forgot to write the following.

NEVER try to repair the OS on the HDD/SSD in such a situation. You clone the original then operate on the clone. This way you get as many attempts as you want without risk to the original. This is yet another lesson in data safety and recovery that I find others learn by doing rather than in the classroom.

@kmdecoration.

A few things.

1. Avoid hijacking other folk's discussions.
2. Check your links to see if they work and looking closer it looks spammy. Don't do that either.

As to your question, why not keep using what you like?

Before you start coding you make a design. That step is rough on first time programmers so think about your app then use approaches to design that are out there such as the screens of input and output, the actions and reactions from the app. Work all that out before coding.
