C/C++ :: Printing Square Pattern Of Asterisks Based On User Input
Dec 15, 2014
I have to make a program that displays a square of asterisks based on the users input. Here is what I have so far.
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
int main(){
int number;
cout << "Enter a number: ";
cin >> number;
for (int i = 0; i < number; i++){
[Code] ....
But the square needs to be hollow like this. So if the user enters 5 then the following square will be shown.
*****
* *
* *
* *
*****
How to make it do this.

I need to create a program that prints a certain number of asterisks based on user input. The user inputs 5 and I want my program to output "*****". How would I do this in C? I've tried printf("%#**", myvariable) but this does not work it only prints "*".

Okay so I have to draw a square using "c" that draws according to the user input. Also, this has to be a function, and here is the code I have so far:
#include <stdio.h>
void DrawSquare(int length, char symbol);
void DrawSquare(int length, char symbol) {
int row;
int col;
[Code] .....
When I run this program it compiles fine but when the user input is recorded it just draws nothing but makes tons of spaces.

I have been tasked with making a diamond out of asterisks based on a given odd integer input. For some reason the bottom half of my diamond will not print. I'm not sure as to why.
Here is my code:
#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iomanip>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[]){

I've been working on this code that should be looking like
1 3 5 3 1
3 5 7 5 3
5 7 9 7 5
3 5 7 5 3
1 3 5 3 1
but mine appears like this
1 3 5 3 1
3 5 7 5 3
5 7 9 7 5
3 3 5 7 9
1 3 1 3 5
This is the code I've got for now, I just don't know which logic I need to fix
int main(){
int r;
cout << "Rows?" << endl;
cin >> r;
for (int i = 1; i <= r; i+=2){
for (int j = i; j <= r+i; j+=2){
cout << j<< " ";
} for (int k = i+2; k >= i-1; k-=2){
[code]....

Write a program that asks the user to enter an integer between 1 and 15. If the number entered is outside that range, your program should print out an error message and re-prompt for another number.
Once the user enters a number in the correct range, your program will print out two patterns of asterisks that look like the following. Note that the number provided by the user is equal to the height of the pattern.
Let us say that the input value was 5. Then please print the following two patterns:
*****
****
***
**

I have tried writing a code which takes two numbers from the user and calculates their square root then the roots are added up to return the sum. The program is coming out with loads of errors.
#include<iostream>
#include<cmath>
float main(){
using namespace std;
float m1,m2,m3,m4,m5;

I am doing an assignment that is to calculate the federal tax based on the users input. I am not entirely sure what it is doing, but it is definitely not what I want it to do. I commented out the loops because they seemed to have caused a problem, but there is still problems that are making the program do something else. Here is my code:
#include<iostream>
#include<string>
using namespace std;
double getData();
double taxAmount();
[Code] ....
Functions just seem like they are not my thing. It never gets to the second function to do the calculations and then return to main to display the results.
I tried changing the code to a switch(status) with a default: at the end that looped the "please try again" but for some reason, that was a fail, it created an endless loop.

My assignment is to pixelate an image based on users input. I have a structure that stores the image, and in this structure I'm storing the height and width and a dynamic array of RGBA struct.
This is my function. my main issue (that I've found) is offsetting and figuring out a way to handle the "edge" if the dimensions don't add up to the set pixelation size.
// @------------- Pixelation X
bool filter_pixelation(float percentageX, float percentageY, Picture& pic) {
// URL
/* 50% of 80 = (50/100) * 80 = 40 */
size_t perX = percentageX * (float)pic.width;
size_t perY = percentageY * (float)pic.height;
[Code] ....
Here is the getIndex function:
int getIndex(int x, int y, int width) {
return y * width + x;
}

how to stop outputting data based on a user input. The text file is as follows:
1. a
2. b
3. c
and the code I'm using is as follows:
int main (){
string line;
int search;
cout << "Enter a number from 1-3" << endl;
cin >> search;
search++;
ifstream myfile ("example.txt");
[Code]...
What I want to do is to just output number 1 (the whole line) if the user enters number 1. However, I get an error on the second condition w/c is the "&& line!= search"

I'm trying to create a function where it allows the user to type in multiple amounts of integers, so if the user wanted to have 3 different storages that hold different integers, the input would look something like this:
5
97 12 31 2 1 //let's say this is held in variable "a"
1 3 284 3 8 // "b"
2 3 482 3 4 // "c"
2 3 4 2 3 // "d"
99 0 2 3 42 // "e"
Since we don't know what number the user will input every time, I'm not sure how to create a dynamically allocated array that will create an x amount of arrays every time.. I want to be able to access each index of a, b, c, d, e or however many arrays there are.
So far, this is what I have, but I'm having trouble creating the arrays since it's unpredictable. I'm purposely not using vectors because I don't really get how pointers work so I'm trying to play around with it.
int* x;
int length, numbers;
cin >> length;
x = new int[length]
for (int i=0;i<length;i++)
{
cin >> numbers; //this doesn't work because it only grabs the first line for some reason
x[i] = numbers
}

I am trying to create a program that will calculate pi based on a user input for accuracy. If the user input .3 then when the leibniz infinite sum value at a particular i becomes less then the input of .3 then the loop will exit.
I have looked at a number of examples on the internet but I feel lost. I have put together working code that will infinitely output sums but I need the loop to stop when the sum value is less then the accuracy value.
My question is what is wrong with my while loop, why will it only give me infinite summations? How do I make it so that the loop will exit when my accuracy input is greater then the sum?
int main () {
double accuracy;
cout<<"Give an accurate number." << flush;//looks nice
cin>>accuracy;
int d;//initialize denominator
double pi = 0.0;
while(accuracy < d){

i want to display all the contents of a file excluding one based on user input say i have 4 records in the file numbered 1 to 4....the user chooses 2 to exclude it outputs records 1,3,4,4 when it should be records 1,3,4 what am i doing wrong here is the code.its basically displaying the last record in the file twice
void excludeRecord()
{

Write a program to generate a report based on input received from a text file. Suppose the input text file student_status.txt contains the student’s name (lastName, firstName middleName), id, number of credits earned as follows :
Doe, John K.
3460 25
Andrews, Susan S.
3987 72
Monroe, Marylin
2298 87
Gaston, Arthur C.
2894 110
Generate the output in the following format :
John K. Doe 3460 25 Freshman
Susan S. Andrews 3987 40 Sophomore
Marylin Monroe 2298 87 Junior
Arthur C. Gaston 2894 110 Senior
The program must be written to use the enum class_level :
enum class_level {FRESHMAN, SOPHOMORE, JUNIOR, SENIOR } ;
and define two namespace globalTypes (tys and fys) for the function :
class_level deriveClassLevel(int num_of_credits) ;
The function deriveClassLevel should derive the class_level of the student based on the number of credits earned.
The first namespace globalType tys should derive the class level based on a two year school policy.
and the second namespace globalType fys should derive the class level based on a four year school policy.
Four Year School Policy:
Freshman 0-29 creditsSophomore 30-59 credits
Junior 60-89 creditsSenior 90 or more credits
Two Year School Policy:
Freshman 0-29 creditsSophomore 30 or more credits
NOTE : use ignore() function with ifstream objects whenever you want to ignore the newline character.
For example :
ifstream transferSchoolFile ;
transferSchoolFile.open("student_status.txt", ios::in);
while( !transferSchoolFile.eof()) {
getline(transferSchoolFile,name) ;
transferSchoolFile >> id >> credits;
transferSchoolFile.ignore(); //Used here to ignore the newline character.
….
}
I did this in parts so I got it working with a four year criteria without the user defined name spaces.
include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
enum class_level { FRESHMAN, SOPHOMORE, JUNIOR, SENIOR };
[Code] ....
So that worked fine then I tried with name spaces -
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
enum class_level { FRESHMAN, SOPHOMORE, JUNIOR, SENIOR };
class_level classLevel;
[Code] ....
I know I have some stuff to mess around with but I am currently stuck with two errors, first -
Error1error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _main referenced in function ___tmainCRTStartupC:UsersstephenDocumentsVisual Studio 2013ProjectsinputConsoleApplication1MSVCRTD.lib(crtexe.obj)ConsoleApplication1
then -

We never really had a thorough discussion yet about if-else statements and while.. but our teacher already gave us a difficult assignment..
We should write a program the accepts a number , n, and displays the first n values of the number series:
the pattern to be print was like this 1 1 2 3 4 5 8 7 16 9 32 11 64 13...
alternating odd and even numbers using while and if-else statements
if you input n, the output will print only until 1 1 2 3 4 5 8 7

I'm currently trying to write a program that takes an integer input from the user and displays that number of square-free numbers. I've gotten most of the program to work, but I encounter an error during the noSquare function that causes it to print incorrectly.
A square-free number is a number that is not evenly divisible by the square of any prime number. It's hard to see the bold in the code area, but it begins after the "//I think below is where the problem is"
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
using namespace std;

I'm currently trying to write a program that takes an integer input from the user and displays that number of square-free numbers. I've gotten most of the program to work, but I encounter an error during the noSquare function that causes it to print incorrectly. I have bolded the area where I believe the problem is what I am doing wrong.
The problem with the program is that it prints ALL numbers from 1 to the input number instead of just the square-free.
A square-free number is a number that is not evenly divisible by the square of any prime number ....
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
using namespace std;
bool noSquare (int num); //Function to determine if the number is square-free
vector<int> getPrimes(int num); //Function to get a vector of all primes below num
bool isPrime (int number); //Function to determine if individual numbers are prime
int main()
[Code]...
By the way, the in the middle of the code was me trying to bold a section, not an actual part of the code. I can't seem to find where to edit my original post.

I have been stuck at a dead end,I got it to display a single asterik for an inputted number, but how would i go about in adding that asterik for each number?
my code is the following
int userinput = int.Parse(InputOutput.GetInput("Enter values into array"));
Int32[] inputChoices = new Int32[9];
for (int x = 0; x < inputChoices.Length; x++) {
inputChoices[x] = 0;
} if (userinput == 1)

Following is the program I wrote it basically takes 9 inputs and then save them into binary file. then print out the data stored in binary data and find inverse of it then print the inverse out. but its stuck in a loop somewhere.
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
int a[3][3],i,j;
float determinant=0;
int x;
FILE *fp = fopen ("file.bin", "wb");

I am writing a program to display a triangular pattern using nested loops and user input for the size of the base and character used to generate the image. 99% of the program runs fine. However I am having trouble with some of my input validation.
When given an integer value for the base I can verify if it is within a certain range (0-80). However, when the user inters a "char" instead of an "int" the program enters an infinite loop.
Here is the piece of code giving me trouble. (I wont bother you with the entire chunk of code, I have commented out everything else to narrow down the problem bit)
// Pattern Displays
// program that asks user for the size of the base of a triangle and then generates it in a character the user chooses
#include <iostream>
#include <istream>
#include <string>
#include <cstdlib>
using namespace std;
int main () {
char escape;

Create a user-defined program that will compute the price per square inch of a cake using an “overloading”. The cake could be a circle or a square type. In the main function, ask for the price of a circle cake and its diameter, while for the square cake, ask for the price, its length and width. The process must be done inside the different function of each cake. (Note: two sub function for the computation of a circle and a rectangle)
Note that when I made this program something weird happen. After inserting the name, all things follow.
<code>
#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
double areaRectangle(int l, int w);
double radiusCircle(int r);

I am able to display a filled and hollow square by themselves, but I can't seem to be able to get them side by side.
So this is my code so far:
[/
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
[Code]....
I can get the hollow square to show up, but the first square just shows up as a single line instead of a square. It seems that it ignores the first if statement in the second loop. I've tried not using an if statement in the second loop but it didn't seem to work either.
