when declaring a function you must specify the parameter types as well as name. For example [code] double computeUnitCost(int length,int width,int price) { // the code goes here } [/code] It is also necessary to declare the functions before they are used, so you need to put the function prototypes …

not possible unless you already have a pointer to it because your program does not know the address of the node and because you also have to remove it from the linked list before deleting it.

>> GlobalMirror2(&GlobalMirror,2); You can't do that after the object has been constructed. You can only do it when actually instantiating the object.

>>How do I make sure that my program gets very little priority, but just enough to watch another program This is operating system dependent. In MS-Windows you can call SetThreadPriority() -- see MSDN for details. I don't know how its done in *nix. Can't answer your other questions. sorry.

Depends on which version of that compiler is used -- 16-bit MS-DOS or 32-bit MS-Windows? 16-bit can create arrays up to only 64,000 bytes (large memory model), or 16,000 long integers. There is no work-around other than to redesign your program or use a modern 32-bit compiler, which is one …

its been a long time, but I think you can use it on core files too. If your program produces a core dump you can use gdb on that core file.

16-bit api functions are obsolete and were only useful on now dead MS-DOS 6.X and earlier operating systems. Don't bother with them. If you use a 32-bit compiler you can't use them anyway. [URL="http://www.winprog.org/tutorial/"] Here[/URL] is a good 32-bit tutorial that you should learn.
