How I can manipulate certain strings. This program here is supposed to randomly scramble any word/sentence input. However, I notice that even the empty spaces get moved; is there any way to stop that from happening? I would want the empty spaces to stay in their input positions.
#include <iostream>
#include <string.h>
#include <ctime>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
[Code] ....
bool simpleQuestion::checkAnswer(string guess) const {
for (int i=0;i<qAnswer.length();i++)
if (qAnswer==guess)
return true;
else
return false;
}
This is my code and what im trying to accomplish here is making the comparison of the two strings (qAnswer & guess) case insensitive. I know i need to loop through each character of each string and for each character i can use toupper and every char in each string will become uppercase and therefore case insensitive. However, im not sure how to go about this; if any technique used to loop through each character of the string and how to use to upper.
My code so far
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <ctype.h>
#include <string.h>
[Code]....
I keep getting these 3 errors :
error expected '=', ',', ';', 'asm' or '__attribute__' before '{' token|.
error expected '=', ',', ';', 'asm' or '__attribute__' before '{' token|.
error expected '{' at end of input|.
I am trying to figure out how to go about comparing two strings of numbers. I have two files that both contain numbers 1-50, one file has multiple repeating numbers while the other one just has 1-50.
I want to compare the files and count how many of each number a occurred and make a chart with * next to the number. First I figured I would use the strings like an array and compare them using nested loops. Then I noticed I have single and double digit numbers. The numbers in the files are printed as:
1 44 5 34 4
2 22 7 55 4
...... etc
Compared too:
1
2
3
4
5
......
50
I thought about using string stream and converting the string to int but wouldn't it just be a huge number when set to the int variable? Then I thought about a array initialized with 1-50 and compared to the file but I still have the issue with single and double digit numbers.
My question is how can I just read one number at a time, either double or single digit?
I have two char* that have the same data in (hypothetically).
std::vector<char*> Buff;
Buff = Split(Line, '.');
char* A = "data", B;
B = Buff.at(0)
Where Split is a function that I made to split a string (Line in this case) into a char* vector, this string contains a line from a file. Line is char* too. The weird problem is when Buff data stored in its 0 position is given to B... because B is equal to A (hypothetically) but when this is compared to do certain functions they doesn't match!
Here an example:
std::vector<char*> Buff;
Buff = Split(Line, '.');
char* A = "map", B;
B = Buff.at(0) // Buff.at(0) should be "map" and is apparently "map"
[Code].....
NOTE: I didn't use switch to compare Cmd because I want it separately for easier debugging.
Is there something wrong with my codes?? or what happened here with those hex values before the string in my variables?
In my book I have the following example : Code:
std::string str = "Hello";
std::string phrase = "Hello world";
std::string slang = "Hiya"; and i have these two rules to compare 2 strings object :
if two strings have different lenghts and if every character in the shorter string is equal to the corresponding character of the longer string, than the shorter string is less than the longer string.
if any characters at corresponding positions of two strings differ, then the result of the string comparison is the result of comparing the first character at wich the strings differ then my book says : if we apply the rules of the comparison we know that phrase is greater than str( ok i've understood this ) and that slang is greater than both slang and phrase ( why ?)
explain me rule number two ? in phrase and slang the characters differ and the first character that differ is not H so why my book says slang is bigger than phrase ?
How would you compare two strings in an if statement to determine which comes first in alphabetical order?
Try and keep it simple because i am currently new to the language
i have been trying to compare a date format from SYSTEMTIME and a date from a text file(string).But its not working. I tried to change both to string(using osstringstream),char* and int(using sscanf) to do the comparison but with no luck. its pretty simple all i want to do is get the current system date and compare it with the date from the text file. Below is my code:
char szcurrentDate[MAX_PATH] = "";
char szdate_time[MAX_PATH];
SYSTEMTIME st;
GetLocalTime (&st);
GetDateFormat(LOCALE_USER_DEFAULT,NULL,&st,"yyyy-M-d ",szcurrentDate,MAX_PATH); //current system date
//std::ostringstream mm;
[code].....
note : i tried displaying just szcurrentDate and szdate_time they show the date exactly the same. in string,char* or int formats.
This program is supposed to compare 2 strings and print out a 1 if the characters match and a 0 if they dont. It compiles but doesnt give me the correct output.
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
void func();
int main () {
func();
return 0;

I am trying to compare a string that i have entered with a set of strings that have already been stored in a file. I am using strcmp function but i am not getting the result.
Code:
printf("
Enter string:");
scanf("%s",&m);
ptr_file =fopen("abc.text","r");

I want to compare two string, and want to see differeince in int form. For example,
Code:
string first_string="0002AE1";
string second_string="0002AE2";
How can i calculate difference between two string? It is obvious difference between above two string is 1/-1, but difference would be 1.
Procedure to Compare 2 Strings with the following criteria
coding of the following function -
I have absolutely no clue where to start -
Given the following sets of numbers -
1154 1179 2154 2554 2484 2144 4515 1144 1517 4815 1481
Given the Index number of 1154
I want to search the numbers for the Index number of 1154
The search will return a True if I can find 3 or 4 same digits between the Index number and the 8 numbers
The search also have the following criteria -
meaning that -
1154 when compared to 1154 == true
1154 when compared to 1179 == false
1154 when compared to 2154 == true
1154 when compared to 2554 == false
1154 when compared to 2484 == false
1154 when compared to 2144 == false
1154 when compared to 4515 == true
1154 when compared to 1144 == true
1154 when compared to 1517 == true
1154 when compared to 4815 == true
1154 when compared to 1481 == true
the index number can also be of type - 1234, 1123, 1112, 1111
I just dont know how to get my upper case and lower case equal...heres the program: Write a program to calculate utility cost for ACME UTILITY COMPANY. The company has 3 types of customers (R) residential, (C) Commercial and (G) government. Customers are billed based on the number of kilowatts used and they type of customer they are (R,C,or G).
Residential cusstomers are charged 0.25 cents per kilowatt hour for the first 500kw used, and 0.35 cent per kwh for all kw used over 500.Commercial customers are charged 0.22 cents per kilowatt hour for the first 999kw used, 0.29 cents per kwh for all kw used over 999 kw up to 1999 and 0.45 cents per kwh for all kilowatts used greater than 1999. Commercial customers that use over 2000 kw are charged a special surcharge of 100.0 in addition to the regular charges.
Government customers are charged 0.34 cents for the first 1500 kwh used(<=1500). 0.30 cent for the next 1000 kwh(1501-2500) and 0.25 cents for all kwh used over (>=2501)
in addition residential customer are charged .5% tax on the cost utilities while Commercial customers are 5% tax on the cost of utilities not including the special surcharge Government customers are not charged a tax
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>
int main(void)
{
int R;
int ct;
int kwh;
int taxes;
int surcharge;
int charge
}
[code].....
the program should quit with Q and calculate the amount owed, utility charge, and surcharge
I'm using a Windows.System.Forms.Webbrowser and the document text contains
...<style type="text/css">
Table {
page-break-after: always;
}
table:last-of-type {
page-break-after: auto
}
</style>...
As soon as call ShowPrintPreviewDialog() to show the print preview dialog, it appears to be ignoring
table:table:last-of-type
because the last page in the document is blank.
Now, I have an assignment in which I am to accept arguments from the command line and copy them into a cstring and display said cstring unmolested. Then I should store it into another cstring but ignore all punctuation, spaces and capital letters. Like this:
./a5 Marge lets Norah see Sharon's telegram
As is: Marge lets Norah see Sharon's telegram
---->: margeletsnorahseesharonstelegram
<----: margeletsnorahseesharonstelegram
Sequence entered is a palindrome
=======================================================
Finally I am to chaeck to see if it is a palindrome. Most of it works and if no spaces are entered nor punctuation it works. However, punctuation causes it to malfunction.
char *FormSeqProc (int argc, char *argv[], char seqAsIs[]) {
int len = 0,
n = 0;
for (int p = 1; p < argc; ++p) {
len += strlen(argv[p]);

I need to ignore negative values in an array, but not exit the function.
For example if the user enters:
1,2,3,4,-1,-2,0
the array would be
[1,2,3,4]
Is there a way to ignore these values?
My program had a requirement to ignore an input beginning with a # sign. The input is entered by user from keyboard. I wanted to know how to use cin.ignore to achieve this.
#include <iostream>
#include <algorithm>
#include <string>
#include <iomanip>
#include <limits>
#include <stdio.h>
using namespace std;
[Code] ....
The output:
Enter the string
# Comment
This is the # comment string.
Answer:
This is the string.
My random number generator isn't working properly. It seems to be ignoring my conditions when it compiles and I enter the input. The program is supposed to accomplish the following.
1. Let the user input how many digits he or she would like to have in the random numbers.
2. Let the user type in how many of the numbers that he or she wants.
3. It will then generate the numbers.
4. It will display the minimum or maximum number it can be with the number of digits the user entered. And display the number of numbers that the user wanted. It also is supposed to check and output only up to the max of that digit range.
so if someone entered they wanted a digit of 1(1-9) but said they wanted 300 numbers it would only output 9
Example:
the user says that she would like 3 digits to be in the numbers generated. So it will output numbers between 100 and 999. then the user says that they would like only 3 random numbers. So it will output three random numbers in between 100 and 999. Also all of the numbers need to be unique so they can't output more then one of the same number.
I am not sure why but it ignores my conditions. Ill type that I want 7 but it just outputs a bunch of random numbers. it dosen't stay in the ranges.

So I have to make a program that allows the user to enter both positive and negative numbers and the program is suppose to calculate the sum of only the positive values while ignoring the negative values. Also it is to be a sentinel-controlled loop with a number ending the set of values.

how would the else in this case being a negative number not be included in the sum
I am programming a translator, and I have it so that it detects words with spaces both in front of and behind them, so I did "string.append(space);" where space equals " ". That added a space to the end, but I still need a space added to the front.

For instance :
Give the number of sentences : 3
First sentence : I like the website bytes.com

After I compile the program it should print the first two sentences.
I have this case statement that is not performing as expected. For some reason ASE_OK and ASE_NotPresent both print out. Why is this? ASE_OK is a return value of 0 while ASE_NotPresent is -1.
Code: // Try to create the buffers and store it
switch (theAsioDriver->createBuffers(info, numChannels, bufferSize, callbacksInfo)) {
case ASE_OK:
std::cout << "ASE_OK";
input->bufferSize = output->bufferSize = bufferSize; // Buffer size is stored in both input and output
case ASE_NotPresent:
std::cout << "ASE_NotPresent";
errorMessage = "Could not find input or output devices.";
return NO_DEVICES_FOUND;

I would like to choose same case for multiple switch conditions.
For example:
Code: switch(choice) //''if choice ==0 or choice ==1, chose same case''
{
case (0 || 1):
{
//execute steps
}
break;
default:
{
//execute steps
}
break;
}
The '||' inside case does not have the desired effect (although it compiles fine). How can I do it without using if-else statements.
I am building a tamagotchi like application/game. As for the leveling up and changing of character I am using a char value so that the icon can change as the character progresses.
Due to the fact that the value for level is changing I need it to also change for what is being used for the case statements
I know I cant use variables in case statements because I have tried every way I can think of.
The code is
switch(Area[y][x])
{
case '*':
Area[y][x] = Level;
break;
case 1:
{
CODE
}
}
Where I have the case 1 I need it to change as level increases (as level is starting at 1)
