Hey guys, I tried joining a game of SC2 and that with my music play and my Ubuntu-box going, I guess it was a perfect storm as my computer just died. Upon regaining the helm, I went to command prompt and noticed it is much different. I cant describe it …

My original plan was to pipe "ls -l", get the permission string that represented the file in question. Translate the string of 'r's 'w's 'x's '-'s into 0s and 1s then convert it from binary to octal. This seems really cumbersome and annoying and I gotta figure there is some …

I'm having an issue with my program when taking in a string. I have two variables (ones for testing), char xpr[50] and char tst[50]. xpr gets it string by fgets --- fgets(xpr,50, stdin); tst gets it value by strcpy --- strcpy(tst, "((1 + (2 * 3))*(2*3))"); when prompt, I put …

I'm making a program that accept 1 character long strings (and ignores spaces " ") until a user presses return/enter. So far I have, [CODE] int main(){ char expression[1]; while ((scanf("%s",expression)) != EOF){ //code } return 0; } [/CODE] it is assumed that the user is entering single digit strings …
