[B]John[/B] is correct on both counts. Change that nested IF into a switch and it'll be easier to read. I see a [ICODE]while[/ICODE] statement in [ICODE]case 1:[/ICODE] -- what is that supposed to be doing?

We don't give code as answers to questions. We help you with the code you write. So try it and reply with your attempt.

And you should have read The Rules. PERIOD. Well, comma, actually. Are you asking us to supply a program for you or help you write something? Would an Excel Spreadsheet be enough, or do you need a program?

Guys, guys, we're supposed to be 'experts' here! :D #1: You are using a [ICODE]for[/ICODE] loop but your exit criteria of the loop depends on [I]counter[/I] and [I]limit[/I].

also, look up [ICODE]>>[/ICODE] and see what it means.

Since I've never heard of [I]Bingo/Chess[/I] and have no idea what that means, there's not much I can do from a logic standpoint.

First of all, don't use ICODE tags unless you want to show code inline with your message. Your code is not too bad, but here are some comments for you to think about: [CODE=c] if (input[b] >= 85) { hcnt = hcnt +1; // you can also use hcnt++; inp …

[QUOTE=cscgal;546941]That's because when there is only one line, brackets are implied and therefore not needed.

This is C code not C++. That's probably why he posted it in theC forum... :icon_wink:

Well, it's not a placeholder. You are defining arrays with no rows and no columns. There is no place for data. So once you try to put anything in your arrays, you overwrite memory changing data you shouldn't and will definitely screw up the program and probably crash.

By not using [ICODE]scanf()[/ICODE] to input your data. [url=http://www.gidnetwork.com/b-59.html]See this series[/url] to see why, and how to fix it.

Yes, you need a loop and a counter to count how many time your loop executes. Exit when counter == 5 OR guess == random_number Also be careful using = and == They are not the same and you have to use the right one for the right purpose.

Lately I've been seeing the following: Today I was looking at forums until about 2:45PM. This evening about 7:30PM I clicked on the [I]Go to first new post[/I] on various threads. I scroll up to previous posts and see many that have been added from 4PM on. Why are these …

The way to do it in Turbo C is to use the functions [ICODE]kbhit()[/ICODE] and [ICODE]getch()[/ICODE]. You will not be using the [I]scan[/I] functions because they will stop the program. Anyway, you should [I]never[/I] use the [ICODE]scanf()[/ICODE] to read a string. [url=http://www.gidnetwork.com/b-62.html]Here's why[/url]. It would be useful to read the …

What [B]krnekhelesh[/B] said, except it's [I]ifstream[/I] since [I]use[/I] implies read, not write. To answer the rest of the question, searching your entire disk for the file is 1) difficult to program 2) time consuming to run Best to just read the file from a specific location.

Well, the first thing "TO DO" is to decide what you need "to do" for each section you labeled "TO DO". That is the first part of your assignment. Once you figure that out, we can help you implement the code (starting of course with your attempt).

A "database" does not have to be a pre-written data management system. It can be a file or three that contains the data you need for a project, and a few routines you write to access the data. Use the KISS principle ([B]K[/B]eep [B]I[/B]t [B]S[/B]imple [B]S[/B]tupid).

After 23 posts, did you ever notice there were words on the background of the textbox you enter all your posts? They also explain CODE tags. So do various threads at the top of the forums, and the Rules.

[QUOTE=DangerDev;535067]u can also getch() but it doesnot work in some compiler.[/QUOTE] Why do people insist on making bad suggestions, especially after a good suggestion has been made? And if you read the Rules, they request [B]you[/B] use the word [B]you[/B], not the letter [I]u[/I], so people that don't speak English …

Yes. Each letter has a numeric value. 'A' = 65, 'B' = 66, ... 'Z' = 90. So you can use a loop of some kind.

Try an IF statement. If that doesn't help, you'll have to post your code so we can actually [I]see[/I] what you're trying to do.

Another thread with the same question. Closing.

Use [B].find()[/B] to find the spaces. If you find 2 spaces with 4 characters between them, use [B].replace() [/B]to replace the 4 characters. And remember, the end of the sentence may not end in a space, but it [I]may[/I] end in a 4-letter word.

So what's the problem, other than not using CODE tags as requested in the Rules. Maybe you need to read [url=http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread78223.html][b]Read Me:[/b] Read This Before Posting[/url] too.

The string with the %x symbols in it are parsed to find each symbol. The letter is then looked at to figure out what field is supposed to go there. Then the string is changed by removing the %x and whatever field is requested replaces it. Usually the data comes …
