C++ :: Array To Template Class - Finding Largest Number From A Group Of Numbers

Sep 26, 2013

I'm trying to make an array that takes a group of numbers and finds the largest number into a template class.

template<class TYPE>
void Integers(TYPE data) {
int integers[] = {4, 25, 32, 85, 150, 12, 98, 200};
int i = 0;
int Max=integers[0];
for (i=1; i < 8; i++) {

[Code] ....

I'm sure I'm going about it all wrong, but I'm not sure as to get it so that it will accept the arrays input.

C/C++ :: Finding Largest Number In Loop

Feb 10, 2014

I need to calculate the expected time it takes to do an activity using a formula provided and after the loop is broken it needs to show the number of projects processed and the project with the longest expected time. I've got everything working except for finding the the project with the longest expected time. What I have here just keeps displaying the number of the last project processed regardless of if it was the largest or not, specifically lines 54-61 is what i can't seem to figure out.

#include <stdio.h>
int main( void ) {
unsigned int counter;
int projectnumber;
int optimistictime;
int realistictime;

C++ :: Finding Largest Prime Factor Of A Number?

Mar 10, 2013

I am trying to find the largest prime factor of a number. But when I am trying to determine if a number is a prime number in the function:

int is_prime(int number), I am unable to exit the loop.

Here is the code:

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
int is_prime(int number) //the problem is in this function {
int num = number;
int factor=0;
do{
num++;
for(int i=1;i<(num+1);i++){

[code].....

So when the program runs, it first divides 20 by 2, to get 10, then divides 10 by 2 to get 5. Since, // condition 1 is not met, it passes 2 to the function int is_prime(int number). The function is able to return 3, but cannot exit the loop when num is 4.

I think the problem lies in the function: int is_prime(int number).

C :: Finding Largest / Smallest / Average In A Loop

Feb 9, 2013

I'm trying to write a program that will allow a user to enter infinite numbers (one at a time) with a way to stop entering values, and once it stops it immediately displays:

Lowest number:
Highest number:
Number of values entered:
Average of numbers:

what I can't figure out is:

-how to end the loop with something other than a number, preferably a char, so that it doesn't affect the average/lowest/highest

-how to output the lowest and highest numbers in a loop (would be easier to figure out were it finite and I could just type a bunch of printf/scanf)

What I have so far:

Code:

#include <stdio.h>#include <stdlib.h>
#define pause system("pause")
main(){
//n = amount of numbers input
//x = number given by user
//s = smallest number
//l = largest number
}

C++ :: Finding The Largest And Smallest Integer In A Set Using While Loop

Sep 29, 2014

I've been working at this for awhile and it seems like it should be correct but it isn't giving me the desired output. Here's my code.

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <iomanip>

[Code]....

And here is my output when I run the program.
75
Max: 90
Min: 0

Press any key to continue . . I am reading from a file in this program which contains a set of 30 numbers and it has the average correct and the max correct but the minimum number in the set is 56 however it keeps giving me a zero for the min.

C++ :: Finding Highest Number In Array

Aug 12, 2014

after staring at this for awhile, I can't figure out why it won't work. It prints out numbers from 0 to 100, but will print out an absurdly high number as the highest number, like 790 or 640. I can't see why.

Code:
#include <cstdlib>
#include <ctime>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int find_highest(int array[]);
int find_highest (int array[], int size) {
int highest_num;

C :: Finding The Biggest Number In Array?

Feb 2, 2014

I'm supposed to find the biggest number (largest value), in any given array A with n numbers. (no floats)

My thoughts here are, check if A[0] > A[1]. if yes, check if A[0] > A[2]. If no, check if A[1] > A[2] etc.

I'm not sure how I can do this in code. I'm thinking if A[0] > A[1] is true, then set A[0] = A[k]. Kind of set it aside, and use that for the next if test. But I'm not sure how to do it.

This is my code so far.

Code:
int main(){
int A[7] = {12, 6, 9, 33, 2, 25, 53};
int i, k;
k = 0;

[Code]....

I'm aware of the flaws here, but this is the best I can do so far. How can I get the if test to use A[k] next, as A[k] will always be the biggest value?

I was assigned to create a program that has a 10 x 8 two dimensional array and fill it with random numbers in the range 50 to 70 inclusively.( Got That part down). The second part is to make function named findSmallest that will find and print, appropriately labeled, the smallest number in the array.

I cant seem to get it working. The code for finding the smallest give me some weird number

C/C++ :: Finding Missing Number In Array

Nov 27, 2012

I'm trying to write a program where in you input 9 numbers from 1-10, then it determines the missing number. Here's my code. It has a lot of errors. I want to improve it by setting conditions like no repetition/ 0< number <10.

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;  
int main() {
    int d[]={1,2,3,4,5,6,1,7,9, 10};
    int i=0,j=0,c=0,missing=0;  
for (i = 0; i < 9; i++)

[Code] ....

I'm so new to C++. It always prints out the number 10 even though I typed it already. How to determine the missing one.

I am attempting to write code that receives a number from the user and outputs the largest prime number underneath the user's number.

C :: Largest Negative Number In 2 Complement

Mar 3, 2014

In this exercise:The C Programming Language Exercise 3-4..It states the following: "In a two's complement number representation, our version of itoa does not handle the largest negative number, that is, the value of n equal to -(2 to the power (wordsize - 1)) ."

A char is one byte (255 bits). The range of an 8 bit variable using a two's complement representation is -128 to 127. Therefore -128 is the largest negative value. The statement in book suggests that the itoa function will not output -128 if we pass -128 as a parameter, because in itoa when we try to convert -128 to positive -128, the inverse of -128 is -128. However, I just ran this code in my computer and it successfully outputted -128.

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#define SIZE 10
void reverse(char s[])
{
int c, i, j;
}

C++ :: Largest Prime Factors Of The Number 600851475143

Mar 23, 2013

What is the largest prime factor of the number 600851475143 ?

This is what I have. If I replace 600851475143 by 1000 (for example), it works fine until 2 divides 1000 to 500, 250, 125...but when it has to find the next divisible prime (ie 5) it cannot do that and the program stops working.

Code:

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
bool find_prime(int number) {
int factor, num;
factor = 2;
num = number;

C :: Finding The Closest Number To Another Number

Apr 10, 2014

Try not to make too much fun of me for my logic, but I'm having trouble with this. I am trying to make it so the program takes a 1 dimensional array and a 2 dimensional array, and checks to see what row in the 2 dimensional array is the closest to the 1D array.

To compute the value of the 1D array you take the first row first element in the 2D array, and the first element in the 1D array, subtract and the absolute value.

Example: | 4 - 3 | = 1;
1Darray = 1.

Full 1 Dimensional Array:
3 1 6 9

Full 2 Dimensional Array:
4 9 1 5
6 1 7 3
0 8 2 6

To compute the value of the first row in the 2D array,
| 4 - 3 | + | 9 - 1 | + | 1 - 6 | + | 5 - 9 | = 18.
| 6 - 3 | + | 1 - 1 | + | 7 - 6 | + | 3 - 9 | = 10.
| 0 - 3 | + | 8 - 1 | + | 2 - 6 | + | 6 - 9 | = 17.

Thus row 1 being the closest row to the 1 dimensional array.

The code I've written so far seems to be going down the right path. Have a look below...

Code:
int i,j,tempRow,tempTotal = 0,firEle,cloRow;
firEle = abs( x[0][0] - y[0] );

for( i = 0; i < size; i++ ) {
tempRow = 0;
for( j = 0; j < size; j++ ) {
tempRow += abs( x[i][j] - y[j] );

[Code] ....

The whole temp part is kind of confusing myself. What I'm thinking is that I can add all row values up using

Code: tempRow += abs( x[i][j] - y[j] ); , then I need to compare that value to see if it is close to the "firEle" which is value I need to get closest to.
