C/C++ :: Game Of Fifteen - Swap Move Not Showing On Screen

May 26, 2014

I am having problems with my game of fifteen. I have implemented the swap> I know the swap takes place[using GDB] but the swap does not show on the screen even if GDB says it has taken place. I am getting no errors from the move function so I know that something is taking place. I was thinking that the problem may be in the draw function but it looks okay to me. I have looked at this over and over but I don't know why the draw is not printing the move to the screen.

#define _XOPEN_SOURCE 500
#include <cs50.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
// board's minimal dimension
#define MIN 3
// board's maximal dimension
#define MAX 9

C++ :: Pacman Game - Move Smiley In Code Automatically And Stop Screen Flickering?

Dec 26, 2013

So far I have managed to write the code for a simple game (resembling to "Pacman") :P. Now what I want is to move the smiley in the upper left-hand corner of the map "automatically" when the program runs and also want it to change it's direction to up or down when it touches the wall.

Also the screen is flickering when the program runs (due to re-printing the whole array?). I want to stop this flicker. Somebody suggested to use 'gotoxy' function.

Here's my code :

#include <iostream>
#include <conio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
using namespace std;
void display (char array [10][25] , int row , int column) {

C++ ::  How To Move Characters On Screen Using Keyboard

Dec 3, 2013

How to move a character (an arrow or any other character) on screen using keyboard? I'm actually a beginner and have only wrote simple (starter's) programs in C++. It would be great without using any external library which is not included in C++ by default (in other words, using plain C++).

Visual C++ :: Draw Multiple Lines And Move Them On Screen

Jul 28, 2013

I am writing a pure C based win32 applications. I have drawn line. Now i want to translate that line, move the line whereved user wants to move on screen. Then again I drawn another line, I am drawing multiple lines.

I have created rectangle region for each line and trying to move the line.

When I move the 2nd line over the 1st line on screen the 1st line is getting wiped out. Because I am InvalidateRect() of the rect for the line being moved, so when that rectangle is crossing the other line then the other line is getting removed from the screen.

How can I rectify it. How can I have all the lined being on the screen and moved according to the user's wish. The code should be pure C and win32 no MFC.

C :: Force Move In Checkers Game

Dec 6, 2013

I am doing a checkers program in C and were not allowed to use standard C99. Things are going relatively well so far. I have 2d array that acts as a matrix for my board and have ways to check if a space is empty and if it is occupied by a specific players chip.

Right now I have a giant messy method that I will split up sooner or later but Im just trying to understand and build the logic. It looks like this:

Code:
void isValidMove(int origin, int dest, int player) {
int rowDiff = abs(origin%8 - dest%8);
int possibleMoveLeftUp = origin - 9;
int possibleMoveLeftDown = origin + 9;
int possibleMoveRightUp = origin - 7;

[Code] ....

So although its not pretty i think the logic is sound. I can tell whether or not a player is attempting to make a move or a jump. I haven't implemented make_move() yet but thats no problems. My biggest deal is that I need to find a way to tell the user he has to jump if its available. I feel like this is a very difficult task for me to grasp and is more about algorithm logic and math then the C language which is what the course is for.

So, how I could loop through all of a specific players chips and see if that player has an available jump. Also if he does then the jump has to be taken and then checked again as if there is another legal jump then it needs to be taken as well until their are no jumps left. Of course there could be 2 routes available, but I think I could deal with that if I just could come up with a reasonable way of checking....

C++ ::  How To Move A Ball Continuously In 2D Scrolling Game

Dec 29, 2013

The situation is , I have a ball which should move on a flat horizontal surface which i have created in a display of 800 x 400 . Right now!I am able to make it move left or right in direction using key inputs at a fixed speed.

But I want to make it move horizontally at a constant velocity without using keys. Like in copter game.

It should be able to move automatically , towards the right side.

Increment x position by speed variable does the trick but When I used it with keys I used to limit the movement like.

ball.x += ball.speed;
if(ball.x > 750)
ball.x = 750; // because my screen width is 800.

[URL] .... < this video will show what I really want to do with the ball

If you saw the game video in the link i gave, the ball kept moving with constant velocity. But it never went out of bound. What is keeping it from not getting out of display screen. Instead! its moving continuously... but stays almost at the center of screen. How?

C/C++ :: Make Basic Snake Game Using Command Window And Screen Refreshes?

Apr 15, 2015

I am trying to make a basic Snake game using the command window and screen refreshes. So far I have a board, snake, food, and no walls. Basically I have it so the snake moves like the traditional snake in the game, when it eats the food once it grows. However when it eats the food a second time the game crashes. I think I have narrowed the issue down to the grow array that I have (below) but I am not sure if the issue could be a result of something else.

Grow Array

cord growArray (cord *p_values, int *size)
{
*size = *size + 1;
cord *p_new_values = new cord[ *size ];

C++ :: Swap Between Two References?

May 28, 2013

I have the following code segment:

Code:

void Swap(Number& num1, Number& num2)
{
cout<<"Before swap:"<<num1<<" "<<num2<<endl;
Number& temp=num1;
num1=num2;
num2=temp;
cout<<"After swap:"<<num1<<" "<<num2<<endl;
}

[code]...

to which the output is:

Code:

Before swap:13 11

After swap:13 11

13 11 that seems confusing.

why doesn't Swap() swap the two Numbers?

C++ :: Using Swap Function In Array

Mar 16, 2014

The idea is to make an array and have it sort the contents inside the array in order from smallest to greatest by using a swap function. I don't know why it needs to be done this way when a sort function makes the most sense, but it is what it is.

For simplicity I want my array to only include three numbers. I was thinking {18,-2,24}. My only problem is that I am not understanding how to translate the swap function in an array. I tried using my previous swap function from another assignment and translate it to work for an array, but it doesn't work and I am completely lost and stuck. What I tried to do was this:

#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>
using namespace std;
const int SIZE = 3;
double myList[3] = {18, -2, 24};
void swap(myList[0], myList[1], myList[2]) {

C++ :: Game Design Practice For Accessing Container Of Game Objects

Dec 21, 2014

I'm working on my first video game. So far I have a few classes in the game starting with the Game class which includes a list of GameObjects (another class). There are several classes that inherit from GameObjects used to implement things like bullets, explosions, various enemy types, etc.

The game essentially iterates through the list of GameObjects to update/render them. I would like to provide access to the Game's list of GameObjects inside another class (like the Bullet class) so I can put new objects on the list. For example, when a bullet hits, I want to add an explosion to the Game's GameObject list it can be updated/rendered.

How this should be setup? I was considering adding a pointer to the Game or GameObject list to the GameObject class (and methods to access it), but I was wondering if there is a better way to set this up?

C :: Local Variables - Swap Char Pointers

Apr 23, 2013

I have the following code. According to this the values of pointers p[0] and p[1] remains unchanged since the swap is made to local variables in swap function.Now my doubt is how can I swap the pointers p[0] and p[1] inside the function swap??

Code:

#include<stdio.h>int main(){char*p[2]={"hello","good morning"};
swap(p[0],p[1]);
printf("%s %s",p[0],p[1]);return0;
}void swap(char*a,char*b){char*t; t=a; a=b; b=t;

C++ :: Program To Swap Positions Of Digits Of User

Oct 11, 2014

I'm using code blocks ....

1.Write a program to swap positions of digits of a user entered three-digit integer N, where N is equal or between 101 and 999. (i.e. if user enters 389 your program should print 983. If user enters 300 program should print 003). Repeatedly ask user for correct N, if he/she enters an integer N which is not in the range.

2. Given that y= 4*( 1- 1/3 + 1/5- 1/7+ 1/9-...plus or minus 1/N) Write a program using a for-loop or a while-loop to compute and print the sum of first 50 terms of y.

3. a) Write a user-defined function funGx to compute G(x), where

5 if x<-10

x^2 +(5/x) if -10 <=x<-5

x^2 - (5/x-5) if -5<=x<5

x^2 -(5/x) if 5<=x<10

-5 if x>=10

b) Call the user-defined function funGx in main function to compute and print G(x)values for x= -15.5 , x=5, and x= 0.5 in an informative sentence.

C/C++ :: Using Linked Lists To Swap Two Adjacent Elements

Jan 6, 2015

I am reading a book currently on data structures in c++. The questions I have is how I would be able to swap two adjacent elements by adjusting only the links (not the data) using, a) singly linked lists, doubly linked lists.

For the single linked list which I am somewhat familiar with (by the content of the book), I would consider taking the Node A, and copying its data into a new Node temp, then re-routing the pointer from whatever connected to Node A, now to Node temp. now I want to re-route the pointer of Node B to Node temp and Node temp to whatever Node was being connected from Node B. Is this the correct approach?
