I can't believe you're using new without delete[].

The point of the above post not being to teach Mr. WaltP how to use new and delete, but to prove my point...;)

How are you a moderator again? Ha ha.

And how are you not a moderator again ?

No. You probably want:

City* map[200];    // declare an array of pointers

...

    for (int ii=0; ii<200; ii++)
    {
        map[ii] = new City;    // load each pointer with a structure
    }

It is? If so, I stand corrected. I've never seen it done that way.

If it is about the semantics, then yes I agree, what I presented is not array of pointers, but if going implementation wise, both the solutions are the same. But mine with less overhead since the constructor is not getting called in the loop.

Just an example of pointer being used to emulate an array...

An eg.

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std ;

struct City
{
    string name ;
    int visit ;
} ;

int main( )
{
    cout << endl << "~s.o.s~'s method" << endl ;
    City* map = new City[3] ;
    for( int i = 0; i < 3; ++i )
    {
        cout << "Enter name: " ;
        cin >> map[i].name ;
        getchar( ) ;
    }

    for( int i = 0; i < 3; ++i )
    {
        cout << map[i].name << endl ;
    }

    cout << endl << "Mr. WaltP's method" << endl ;

    City* mapWalt[3] ;

    for( int i = 0; i < 3; ++i )
    {
        mapWalt[i] = new City ;
        cout << "Enter name: " ;
        cin >> mapWalt[i]->name ;
        getchar( ) ;
    }

    for( int i = 0; i < 3; ++i )
    {
        cout << mapWalt[i]->name << endl ;
    }

}

My output:

Oh you talking about the OP... Yes he was partly wrong in asking the answers -- partly because he was asking for the solutions to the previous year's papers.

Here normally, people try and solve as many previous papers as possible, so as to get the jest of the test and a feel of it. Then extract the same kind of questions from the text book and practice those ones which carry more weightage...

A very complicated reasoning but this is how things work here....:D

One important thing in programming is to learn to evaluate your own code by writing it down and testing it with the help of the compiler.

Does the code which you pasted give you any errors ? No, then you are right atleast for the time being. Keep experimenting and you would learn two fold than what you are learning now.

And btw, yes your code is fine for the time being.

Good girl....;)

With the normal rock band instruments, yes they have a Western sound, but the main or strong points about Indian / Pakistani bands is their lyrics...

Alas you don't understand the lyrics, otherwise you would have enjoyed the song a lot more since the lyrics form the core in our culture.

Do, to piggy back on the answer by Mr. ~s.o.s~ :mrgreen: you should probably just declare the map as City map[200]; . That would fix your problem.

I also hope this line is not in your header file. It should be in your code file only.

Bleh..I wrongly assumed that the project required him to dynamically allocate memory, otherwise would have told him the simple fix :D

You still haven't incorporated all the changes proposed to make your program from a working program to a better or portable program....

Few points:

• Don't use void main( ) , use int main( ) since main always has and always will return int according to the standards.
• Don't use old style of header inclusion i.e. the .h notation. Instead use #include <iostream> followed by using namespace std ;
• As far as your errors are concerned, they are due to the fact that you have forgot to close your if stmts . Each if stmt must have a complementary else stmt.

What you have is

if( some_condition )
{
    // stmts 

     else
     {
      // some_stmts
      }
}

// which should actually be like:
if( some_condition )
{
      // stmts
}
else
{
     // some stmts
    
     if( another_condition )
     { }
}

But there is a better way of doing things using the else if stmts.

if( some_condition )
{
    // stmts
}
else if( another_condition )
{
    // stmts
}
else
{
    // stmts
}

I hope you catch the drift...

When you are doing City* map[200] , map is an array of 200 pointers to the type City. So in order to access the members of the City struct using its pointers you need to use the -> operator.

Here are the two ways you can do it:

*map[i].visits = 100 ;
// OR
map[i]->visits = 100 ;

But, even if you do so your program won't work. Why ? Because you are not allocating memory to the pointers so acutally what they are poniting to is junk i.e. memory which doesn't belong to you. Consider allocating memory to the pointer before using it in your program.

>>enterance papers

What are these? You mean students in India have to take a test in order to advance to the next grade ?:eek: And why would you want the solutions to some previous year's test? I would think you would want the solution to the next year's test. This is realllly confusing:confused: :confused: :confused:

Yeah we have to take a sucky test just to prove that we really have a desire to learn...:(

Small things lead to big contributions.

Good to have you here buddy, just head over to the C++ forum and feel free to ask any questions.

Hey there Eddie, welcome to Daniweb....:D

It is worth noting that though those two things ( <typename T> and <class T> ) are interchangeable in most of the cases there are some senarios where you must use <typename T>.

Eg. Suppose you want to create a templated class with something like this:

template < class T, T::member> struct ABC { // }

This actually won't work since in templated class you are passing the type and then the member of the same type. So in such cases <class T> won't work.

You can do somethings like:

// correct
template < class T, typename T::member> struct ABC { // }

//correct 
template < typename T, typename T::member> struct ABC { // }

//incorrect since the compiler won't come to know that T::member
// is a type.
template < typename T, T::member> struct ABC { // }

You get a free kick.
