Why are you putting a [ICODE]for[/ICODE] loop inside the [ICODE]while[/ICODE] loop? The [ICODE]for[/ICODE] loop will get in your way if there are less than 8 values.

Your program is backwards. You want to 1) start a loop 2) ask for input 3) use the switch 4) continue with loop until exit command entered

[QUOTE=jprogram;1183939]I have been trying to do this assignment for the past 4 days. I thought I was doing good but the functions seem to be screwing up. All the greater than and less than functions are messing up. Also the add and subtract functions are messed up. Any suggestions would …

This code will not do what you want: [CODE] //Populates the grid with x's for(int i=0;i<5;i++) { lifeBoard[rand()%19][rand()%19] = 'x'; } //Populates the grid with o's for(int i=0;i<100;i++) { lifeBoard[rand()%19][rand()%19] = 'o'; } [/CODE] What if during the population of the [B]o[/B]'s you overwrite an [B]x[/B]?

Stop writing code that causes C2664 and C2562 errors would be a usable suggestion. That might mean looking up what the errors mean and either memorizing the descriptions & sulutions or writing them down for future reference.

All you are doing is testing the first character and returning 1, 2, or 3. You need to set a variable to 0. Instead of returning in your loop, set the variable to the appropriate number. But be sure to check the value before setting it otherwise the value will …

Internet Code Lesson #1: a) If you want to llearn how to do a task by looking at code b) If the code you found doesn't work z) Do not use it. Find something else. Why bother with it if [B]IIIX[/B] == 13. What can you learn?

Because 1% of the posts that resurrect an old thread might actually have some useful information -- not for the OP but for someone just dropping in. 80% cause problems by 1) Hijacking the post 2) Posting bad code requiring people to correct it 3) Posting wrong code requiring people …

And [I]please[/I] fix your indentation! It's very hard to read.

Jeez! [ICODE]if (false)[/ICODE] is always false because [B]false[/B] is -- wait for it -- [I]false[/I]!

1) [url=http://www.gidnetwork.com/b-58.html]See this[/url] about using [iCODE]feof()[/iCODE] 2) Write a truth table for your 2 [iCODE]while()[/iCODE] statements and see what they should look like.

Just set up a buffer of [B]x[/B] chars. Open the file for binary read. Loop, reading [B]x[/B] chars from the file. Write the characters. Exit the loop when the read does not actually get [B]x[/B] chars -- you've hit EOF.

And if you want us to be able to read your code [url=http://www.gidnetwork.com/b-38.html]format it[/url]!

You are making things very hard for yourself. Just use the [ICODE]scanf()[/ICODE] and check the return value. You don't need the [ICODE]ungetc()[/ICODE]. Other changes: Get rid of the [B]\t[/B]'s in the [ICODE]scanf()[/ICODE] format. They aren't needed.

Not even going to bother. First, [url=http://www.gidnetwork.com/b-38.html]format your code[/url] so we can read it. Next, ask a question we can answer. That starts with details of the problem, not just posting the assignment and nothing else useful.

[QUOTE=lotrsimp12345;1154838]don't do it with a stack you are typing too much... use recursion very powerful and easy to understand.[/QUOTE] Just because you learned recursion recently and it looks kool, it is rarely an acceptable alternative to a loop. Way too many resources are used and you can crash your computer.

What does "comes out wrong" mean? Maybe details would help.

Yeah, so? Do you have a question we can answer?

It's identical to what you've found. The data just comes from somewhere other than the keyboard. So the data input is a little different, all the rest is the same.

also, [iCODE]facesInhand[numberInHand2][13][/iCODE] is beyond the array. The array stops at 12, not 13.

Write them to a settings file of your own creation.

Only if each and every line is exactly the the same length. If they aren't, you have no way of knowing where any line starts.

Get a degree. In the 60's and 70's it was easier to get a job without one. But today, why would you hire some self-taught person rather than someone that has a formal education? Would you buy a house built by the guy's brother-in-law executive that likes woodworking or one …

First warning: [I]disable deprecation, use _CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS. See online help for details.[/I] You don't care that VC doesn't like strcpy so turn the error off. Next error: look on line 21 and before for the missing ';'

You have to move it then. What you are doing is [CODE]output a character at the left edge of screen; wait; output a tab; return to left edge; repeat;[/CODE] How can you put the character where you want it?

I'll bet its your [iCODE]while (!file.eof())[/iCODE] statement. [url=http://www.gidnetwork.com/b-38.html]See this[/url] ([ICODE].eof()[/ICODE] is the same as [ICODE]feof()[/ICODE]

I'd search Google rather than searching forums. There's more detailed information there.

So what is it doing instead?

Add the program to the Start=>Programs=>Startup list. It will start when the user logs in.

And [url=http://www.gidnetwork.com/b-38.html]format your code[/url]. It's very difficult to follow.

You actually did it in reverse. [code] int main() { char *namen; char test[255] = "Test"; namen = test; cout << test << endl; cout << namen << endl; return 0; } [/code] The pointer can receive the address of the array. Not the other way around.

Use 2 indexes, 1 for '[I]student[/I]', 1 for '[I]new position[/I]'. Start them both at 0. Increment both indices until you find the student you want to remove. Increment only the student index.

And it's not dependent on the [I]operating system[/I]. It depends on the [I]compiler[/I].
