C/C++ :: String Getting Printed Even After Size Of Array Is Exceeded?

Mar 4, 2015

#include<iostream.h>
#include<conio.h>
void main() {
clrscr();
char name[5];
cout<<"Enter your name";
cin>>name;
cout<<"Your name is"<<name;
getch();
}

In the above program the size of the array of the variable name is 5. which means the variable cant store more than 5 characters.

which also means

If I give the string "LINISH"
It should only print LINIS

But while the program is running, Even if I type a 10 characters string, It is getting printed Completely..why?

#include<iostream.h>
#include<conio.h>
void main(){
clrscr();
char name[5];

[Code] .....

In this program when I input a string for the variable name,It is getting printed completely, irrespective how many characters are there in the string.But If the string (which is input to the second variable that is game )holds more than 5 characters. the input of the first variable(name) is getting disturbed..why?

look at the below cited output to be more clear about my doubts.

OUTPUT NO:1

Enter your name:LINISHFRANCIS (Note that the input holds more than five chars)
Enter your game:GOLF(input is less than five chars)

LINISHFRANCIS loves GOLF(Two inputs are getting printed comopletely)

OUTPUT NO:

Enter your name:LINISHFRANCIS (Note that the input holds more than five chars)
Enter your game:FOOTBALL(input is more than five chars)

ALL loves FOOTBALL [Note that "ALL" is the last three letters of FOOTBALL

I am using TurboC++ for windows 7

C :: How To Edit Printed Array Board For Simple Candy Crush Game

Oct 24, 2013

I am required to create a simple candy crush game.

I am this stage where I am required to print the 'box' for navigation purpose at the center of the board once the program initializes.

Here is the code:

Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h>
//FUNCTION: Draw the Board

[Code].....

I understand that the sequence could be to clear the screen and print the whole board with the indicated marker.

*Yes I am required to move the box in later part of the program but for now, I just need to get the box to show up at coordinate

Code: board[5][5]

I am stuck ...

C++ :: Initialize String Data Members As Nullptr Or As Zero-size Array?

Nov 4, 2014

Is it generally better to initialize string data members as nullptr or as a zero-size array?

I can understand the former is superior from a memory-use perspective and also not requiring the extra allocation step. However, many string management functions will throw an exception - wcslen for instance - if you pass them a null pointer. Therefore I am finding any performance gained is somewhat wiped out by the extra if(pstString==nullptr) guards I have to use where it is possible a wchar_* may still be at null when the function is called.

C++ :: Exceeded 32bit Register Value Exceeds 4 Bytes

May 28, 2014

My question, What happens when with the 32 bit register value exceeds 4 bytes while programming in c++? Im interested in encryption.

Im programming and doing some calculations. The hex value "0xFA062F2F" multiplied by "6D" sends it over "0x6A74A21703", which exceeds 32bit.

My problem is while programming in C++, I do some calculations such as above, and I get the hex value "0xC0000001" which should be "0x6A74A21703". I made sure that I use long long as my interger type.

How can I overcome this problem with programming.

C :: Strings To Be Printed In Different Colors

Aug 21, 2013

I am currently using Dev-C++ 4.9.9.2 compiler for creating a C project. I need few strings to be printed in a different color.

Code:
#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
int main(void)
{ textcolor(RED);
cprintf("Hello world
");
system("pause");
}

While I use " textcolor(RED) " it says: 'RED' undeclared, first use in this function.

If i make it: " textcolor(3) ", it says: [Linker error] undefined reference to textcolor & undefined reference to cprintf.

have been searching for a solution on google since morning. At last I could make out that it is not the correct compiler with suitable library or outdated <conio.h> header file.

I had switched from turbo(or borland, I don't remember) to Dev-C++ compiler due to some kind of library issue. Now I guess I'll have to switch to some other IDE. Which one is that, I don't know yet. There was another thread also about this topic, but didn't provide any solution.

Is there any method to upgrade certain header file (I don't think so)? What would be the best IDE with updated libraries?

Visual C++ :: Retrieving Size Of Each String In Order To Produce A New Buffer For Concatenated String

Feb 25, 2013

What is the efficiency of the two assignments (line 1 and 2), i.e. (function calls, number of copies made, etc), also the Big O notation. I know there are function calls for retrieving the size of each string in order to produce a new buffer for the concatenated string...any difference between line 1 and 2 in terms of efficiency?

String s("Hello");
String t("There");
1. s = s + t;
2. s += t;

C++ :: Passing 2D Array To A Function Where Size Of Array Is Not Known At Runtime

Jun 27, 2014

I'm wondering if it is possible to pass a 2d array to a function where the size of the array is not known at runtime.

I've tried

function ( array[][6] ) ;

But the size of the array has to be constant so it cannot be declared later.

I've tried using a template but you still have to declare the size of the array at runtime. Is this even possible at all?

The only other way I can think of is using a dynamic 2d array but how to create one and manipulate it.

C/C++ :: Getting The Size Of Array?

Jun 12, 2014

Here is what I've tried:

int numbers[] = {8, 2, 0, 4, 100, 5};
for(int i = 0; i < sizeof(numbers); i++){
cout << numbers[i] << endl;
}

However the results in the console is: 8 2 0 4 ,What am I doing wrong? Am I using the wrong built in function or something? I googled this and one of the links that came up stated to just do something like

arrayName.size()

but that didnt work for me either...

[URL]

Also, I know that I just enter the size of the list manually, in this case make i < 6 but I still want to know if there is a built in function or something.

C :: Sorting Array Of Size 10

Nov 18, 2013

I am trying to sort an array of size 10. If I was given:

Code: int List[Size] = {29, 11,12,10,3,26,13,15,19,2};

I need the program to sort all the odd integers and put the even integers to the back of the array. Like so:

Index: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Value:29 11 3 13 15 19 12 10 26 2

And it returns the number of even integers in the List. In this case it returns 4. All I am given to start with is

Code:
int evensToRead(int* const List, const int Size){
//body
}

C++ :: How To Get Size Of Dynamic Array

Jun 12, 2013

I remember in C++, when a dynamic array is allocated, the size of this array is stored right before the array in memory. Therefore compiler knows exactly how long, when this array is deleted.

Do all compilers store the size this way? Is it a safe method to get the size of a dynamic array?

Here is a example code, it works fine on Visual Studio 2012.

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
class dummy {
public:
dummy() {
cout<<"dummy created"<<endl;

C++ :: Using Array With Dynamic Size?

Feb 6, 2013

arrays with dynamic sizes. That being said, I'm working with a simple code which seems to work just fine, my only concern is that once I display the 'char array', not only displays the user's inputs but some extra data, symbols and what not.

why, if to my understanding the first user's input already sets the size of the array

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

void Display (void);
void random (int *, int);

C++ :: How To Take Size Of Array And Initialize It On Heap

Feb 6, 2014

I am creating a class that has a private array on the heap with a constructor that takes the size of the array and initializes it on the heap. Later I have to make a deconstructor delete the space and print out free after.In my code, I was able to heap a private array and make a deconstructor, but I don't know how to take the size of the array and initialize it on the heap. My guess is this:

int* size = new int();

Also when you initialize size on the heap, don't you also have to delete it too? If so, where, in the code, do you do that? Here is my code so far.

Class Student {
private:
int size;
int* array = new int[size];
public:
Student(); // Constructor
~Student(); // Deconstructor

[code]....

How do you make a constructor that takes the size of the array and initializes it on the heap

Student::~Student()
{
delete[] array;
cout << "Free!" << endl;
}

C++ :: Multiplication Using Two Characters Array Of Size 40

May 9, 2014

I am developing a program which should multiply two character arrays of length of 40 treating as signed numbers for example:

char arr[4] = {'-', '1','2',''}; is equivalent to -123 in integer form.

now i have this in 40 size of array and i have two arrays . What will be the algorithm that should i employ? i can't find the way to implement this.

Same goes for Division, +1 what about 40bit numbers division.
