Look at the date and time stamp as it changes from white to black at this link:

New members seem to misunderstand what "Code Snippet Repository" is for. It's for you to share working snippets. Not this.

rproffitt 2,701 https://5calls.org Moderator

@dongrien. It appears to be a rare thing. Again, find the maker to see what they supply for example code or API.

rproffitt 2,701 https://5calls.org Moderator

It appears you've been working this since 2011?

Also checking https://www.c-sharpcorner.com/forums/restore-fingerprint-data-for-timekeeper-ronald-jack-x628c and other discussions it appears this is far too rare a device.

My advice is to hunt down the manufacturer and ask if such operations are supported and more.

While I would have stuck with MySQL that's in WAMP, it appears that setup for WAMP 3 with MS SQL is a lot more work. Check that you got it all done by reading http://eecs.csuohio.edu/~sschung/CIS408/MSSQLServerConnectedWAMPInstruction.pdf

The code snippet posts are for sharing completed works you want to share. As to language conversions you would turn to prior discussions about such work or if you don't plan to do this yourself post this as a For Hire along with project details, deadlines and pay.

  1. You wrote left of the decimal point. Wouldn't that be the Int() function?
  2. Now for the right of the decimal how about the value minus the int(value)?

A quick look at the logs shows the usual browser hijackers. https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/virus-removal/safefinder.com-linkury-removal-guide for more. The other looks to be newer or is just another trojan/adware or other item that may be using a random name generator schem to make identification harder.

I'm going to jump to the end rather than spend time mucking about. Since you want this in C here's a tutorial to use Gnu MultiPrecision Library.

My advice is to get to Bleepingcomputer.com and follow their posting rules then they use a suite of scans and tools to clean this up.

Yes, you could google your way to what things are, try the usual Malwarebyte scans but I feel what you want is exactly what Bleepingcomputer.com does.

PS. Yes, you could do the hijackthis route but the threats and scan methods have changed so my advice has changed.

I'm seeing bad call log information. This is not new so I'd stop spending time on this, delete the log and make sure you have your phone under your control from now on. Change your lock code too.

Again, this isn't the first report of this and so far it's a waste of effort tracking it down so either you burn up your time here or you move on. Until there is more data my advice is to delete the log, secure your phone and move on.

In psuedocode to do this we read a file line by line then insert the text on each line then write the line to another file.
At the end of the file we close both files. Optionally you could delete the source and rename the edited file to the source's name.

Elsewhere we had a run of questions that were easy to get answers from Google. We (moderators) put it down to the Quora site and how you get points for putting up a new question no matter what. It was decided that we would not put a lot of effort into questions that the person that asked didn't put effort into.

In your case you are a "top rated digital marketing company" and yet ask a question like this. I'd remove this if I were you since that would be bad advertising for your brand.

Wow, memories there. The last Colorado drive I helped out on was in the 90's.

Thoughts: For the apps to work your OS should be same as before. And there is a catch 22. How to restore a full back to bare metal?
Tell more about the old and new PC OS.

I'd try Linux but only because long ago it had great support builtin to the OS for these drives.

Yes, no one I know has these any longer since the 1TB USB HDD is less than the cost of your tape drive and tapes for 1TB of backup. Most folk moved away from tape over a decade ago.

Paypal does not pay the seller immediately so this may translate into the demo system. I'd get into the documentation to see how they simulate the escrow delay.

Can't really answer yet. Specification incomplete.

For example some wallpaper has you line it up on a pattern so there is some material loss.

That is, the wall is about 2.3 Meters (if you make an app, consider using The Metric System too.
So another field would be the pattern repeat distance. I'd also change Height to Maximum Wall Height just to cover that odd room.

Now that you have the repeat pattern entry you can work out the math.

Use the max wall height and bump that length up to the repeat line on the paper. Now it's not so hard as it's just the linear wall run of 2 times Length plus 2 times Width divided by the width of the paper. If there's a fraction you round up the full integer. That's the number of strips you will have to have.

Change the roll coverage of square feet to the roll's length. They used to always give you full repeats in the roll so we don't need to tackle that today.

At this point it's the integer you have now for the number of strips times their length gives you the total meters or feet we need for the project given that roll width. Now the last step to find the number of rolls is to divide this number by the meters in a roll and round up since you can't buy less than a roll.

After I read your post a few times, I have to write that "as a slideshow" is misleading. But hey, it's English

If I were to add the feature to graph further along the time scale I think I'd focus on line 29. That appears to be where you select what to plot.
Why not change that to the range you want to plot?

Using strictly your requirement this appears to be a 2 line exercise. Nowhere did you write the user input the values with cin or much else. You wrote the program accepts the 5 integers. This is a good example where the specification means a lot more than some folk think it does. The spec you supplied did not demand user input. So this is pretty easy and I worry that you need to spend time on your class work.

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
  int a=1,b=2,c=3,d=4,e=5;
  cout << a << b << c << d << e << endl; 
  return 0;
}

"Which compiler should I choose?"

Look to prior OS development to see what they use. Also, the target platform needs definition. For a Microchip SOA you would use Microchip's free IDE or others. For today's PCs give yourself a year to learn about the PC from the days of BIOS to today's UEFI.

To get an idea of how complex today's UEFI boot system is, watch https://channel9.msdn.com/Shows/Going+Deep/Inside-Windows-8-Chris-Stevens-Boot-Environment

It's become so complex that there is a team just for the boot loader.

My question to you is do you have the time to immerse yourself in just one eco-system?
Why isn't one of the dozens of PC OSes workable for your final project?

You only had one tag so let's go with that. In vb.net, C# and such you can use their form designer to have a datagrid and then code to pull your image and more from the database. You left me wondering if such work is eluding you. There are tutorials about this on the web.

You had me chuckle when you wrote "the next move should be" and this is supposed to be an AI at work. If you feel the result shall be deterministic then you code that up. If you want AI, then if you have Amazon Prime Video watch the AI Video making a cake.

What you have here is probably OK but being AI doesn't mean the outcome is certain. For certainty you code it to do as you wish.

The mindreading part is in your top post where you wrote "my proposed algorithm". There's the mindreading part.

Also, this forum tends to not implement for members. That's for you the author or programmer to do. Where do you find help? When you are stuck on a nugget and can't seem to crack it. There have been many that want to have the forum "implement" for them. That is, do the work. I'm sure you understand how this works now.

Is MS Access still a thing? After over a decade of pain (other people's pain) I looked at and decided that it was not a good option for apps I wanted to package and deploy. My choice then was MySQL and that was without the pains others showed me.

I'd redesign with other SQL systems first.

As a developer of other apps you do hear "this should take long" once in a while. You smile and see where your client is going with this. Usually it's about the cost of the project.

This should be a few year investment of time so let's be sure you know what this effort will cost you. Moving on I am using Ghostery and Ublock Origin which as you suspect is detected by some sites. For those sites I just go elsewhere. This is their loss, not mine.

At some point you can't shelter them and maybe you should never do that after they figure out they can't fly.
