[QUOTE=jephthah;610856]get rid of the [b]long[/b] type cast. that's what's hurting you here. Furthermore, since you've already defined everything as a [b]double[/b] anyhow, you have no need to do any type casting at all. they already are doubles. this is all you need to do to get your answer: [code]beloeb = …

Actually, no you didn't...

Gee. IE -- strike one. Vista -- strike two. Only need one minor thing to go wrong and -- strike three. You're OUT! :icon_wink:

ICODE is not meant for multiple lines of code. That's what CODE tags are for. Extra whitespace on a single line of code may or may not be useful. I probably agree that ICODE should retain whitespace, but not EOLs.

Or add output statements to display values as the program runs with the location within the program.

Interesting.... A few comments -- opinions, to be sure (except the first): [B]Theories[/B] are not facts. The are based on observations and [I]seem[/I] to hold true, but aspects of the theory still have not been proven. That's why they are called [I]theories[/I] instead of [I]facts[/I].

[QUOTE=sagz;605761] I had been thinking along those lines, but probably way off with...[CODE]if ( choice != "y","Y")[/CODE][/QUOTE] Yes, you're off. You have to test each character individually.

[quote=WolfPack]As for syntax changes, I tried the Professional Version for some time, and the major irritation was that the use of functions like strncpy has been [URL="http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dncode/html/secure03102004.asp"]deprecated [/URL]in favour of microsoft specific functions like strncpy_s.

[QUOTE=helloan;598425]Is there anyway to do this without using rewind? We haven't learned this yet.[/QUOTE] Just close and open the file again.

A stack makes sense. That way you'd be able to catch problems like [icode]This is a <I><B>mismatched tag pair</I></B> too.[/icode]

[QUOTE=sickly_man;590080]so i cant actually return a number like in C or C++? in other words, the RETURN statement in my get_fore and get_back subroutines is incorrect/illegal? so i guess i will have to put these values in registers before i do the return statement, right? it seems to me then, …

I'm with [B]Aia[/B] on this topic. Although compilers treat \0 and 0 the same, they are not, since one is a character and the other is an integer. It has to do with human perception, not compiler equivalences. It's the same as teaching children to dial [I]nine-eleven[/I] in case of …

[QUOTE=superjacent;483639]Thanks for the advice, very much appreciated. I've altered the code as suggested and is a lot 'cleaner' looking. [/quote] Not bad, although it's still not [url=http://www.gidnetwork.com/b-38.html]formatted properly[/url]. By the way, what does [ICODE]cin.clear();[/ICODE] do? You might want to look it up.

First, get rid of the clear screen stuff since you cannot make it portable and is not part of standard C++ Second, get rid of the GOTO statement and use a while loop instead Third, you say you want the "[I]second out put replaces the first[/I]" so change your output …

I also like the split bar, but when you click on something on the second bar, the top bar resets to HOME. IMO it needs to remember the setting. In my case, i always want FORUM. Also, the second bar seems longer than before, requiring more horizontal scrolling. Can the …

We're not going to do your homework for you. You need to show us what you did and we can help you fix it.

[QUOTE=Narue;368053]But there's no requirement that the size of a long be related to the size of an int provided that both meet the minimum size requirements.[/QUOTE] Which kinda sucks when you want [I]long[/I]s to be longer than [I]int[/I]s :icon_wink:

#1) Learn to [url=http://www.gidnetwork.com/b-38.html]format your code[/url] so it's readable #2) Isn't [B]y[/B] a single character? What's the proper [ICODE]printf()[/ICODE] format specifier for a character? That should help.

You're talking about [I]command line[/I] parameters. [B]Narue[/B] is correct. You can check out [url=http://www.gidnetwork.com/b-45.html]this information[/url] on how to use the command line.

I was at the infamous concert where he got down on one knee to start Hound Dog, and said :I think I just ripped my pants!" He sang 3 songs, then called the Gospel group on stage while he changed. That was the second concert I saw.

You cannot compare strings with the == operator. Look up the function [icode]strcmp()[/icode]

Use one of these compilers: [url=http://bdn.borland.com/article/21751]Turbo 1.01[/url] [url=http://bdn.borland.com/article/20841]Turbo 2.01[/url] [url=http://148.231.149.200/aplic/tc30.zip]Turbo 3.0[/url]

Old? What does that make ForTran??? :icon_twisted:

[QUOTE=Nessie;571974]Entirely your choice, but I would use a while loop. I would also use recursion (i.e. your function should call itself within the loop), as you'll need to print out the columns in reverse order to how they're calculated.[/QUOTE] I wouldn't. I'd just write the loop properly.

[QUOTE=vardhani;570003]I want to know a small c code to generate random numbers.It could be within a certain range.

Copy the file where ever you want, as [B]jephthah[/B] suggests. In the code, use the full path to the file.

IMAO Flash ads should be banned. They are annoying resource hogs. And Flash sites too. Flash should be used to enhance a site, not [I]be[/I] the site.

You need to make a decision on how to input a move. Once you make that decision, make another function to accept moves.

[B]jephthah[/B], "[I]try to keep code basic and readable for the next guy, rather than using clever logical constructions[/I]" is very good advice. But then using [icode]if (!strcmp(progress,"YES") || !strcmp(progress,"NO"))[/icode] is not easily understandable. It assumes you understand that [icode]strcmp()[/icode] returns FALSE on equality, which is illogical. Better to use [icode]if …

In order to input the data, you must open the file first. Then you need to read each record and load your structure. Maybe you should read the entire file when you start the program and just keep all the records in memory so you have access to them at …

So you get that far and quit? And we get to finish it for you, and we have no idea what's not working? Somehow I don't think I need an A that bad.
