C/C++ :: User Input Validation - Finding GCD And LCM Of Multiple Numbers

Oct 23, 2014

I need validation on what the user inputs. Input should not be an alphabet, empty, and not negative number. This program is for finding the GCD and LCM of multiple numbers.

#include <stdio.h>
void bubble_sort(int numbers[], int len) {
int i, j;
int swapped;

C/C++ :: Float User Input Validation

Feb 4, 2014

How I could correctly validate user input when the user inputs a numeric value that will be float pay1, pay2, pay3, pay4. However, the if statement that I wrote crashes after I test the validation. I been told that scanf is dangerous, but strtol works best, but how to write a validation with strtol.

#define _CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <conio.h>
#define ARRAYSIZE 2
#define FORMAT "First Name Pago1 Pago2 Pago3 Pago4 Total Net"
#define FORMATHEADER "Last Name "

C :: Input Validation - User To Enter Six Doubles

Dec 20, 2014

I'm trying to validate my input. I require for the user to enter six doubles and if they don't then I want them to re-enter the information. Here is my code:

Code:
while (1>0) {
printf("Please enter arguments in the order: negative mass, positive mass, initial x-position, initial y-position, initial x-velocity, initial y-velocity:
");

if ( scanf("%lf %lf %lf %lf %lf %lf",&MassMinus,&MassPlus,&Pos[0][0],&Pos[0][1],&Vel[0][0],&Vel[0][1]) != 6) {
printf("Not all numbers were assigned!

[Code] .....

At the moment it just waits if you enter less than six numbers and if you enter any more than 6 it just ignores anything after the sixth number (so pretty much does nothing). Also if I entered 1 2 a b 3 4 instead of entering six numbers it would register that as 1 2 0 0 3 4 but I want it to make the user input the numbers again. I'm also aware that "while (1>0)" isn't good programming form but I'm not really sure what to use instead?

C++ :: Input Validation - Program Cannot Accept Negative Numbers

Nov 12, 2014

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

// Function Prototype
void sortArray(int array[], int size);

[Code] ....

This program was made to allow students to enter as many test scores as they want and the program will show them in ascending order and then will calculate the average of all test scores. It works wonderful until you enter a negative test score and then it throws the averaging process off. I can't seem to be able to make the program not accept the negative numbers.

C++ :: Storing Multiple Arrays Based On User Input

Feb 7, 2014

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
}

C :: User Input - Inverting Odd Numbers

Jan 26, 2014

Now i got here a program that asks the user to input 2 numbers if the first inputed number is smaller than the second then show all even numbers from the range of the 1st inputed number till the 2nd inputed number, but if the first inputed number is greater than the second then display all odd numbers from the range of the 1st number till the 2nd.

now my question is how do i invert the odd numbers?(on the 2nd condition)

Code:
#include<stdio.h>
int main(void) {
int i,a,b,x;
printf("Enter two numbers");
printf("
First number:");

C++ :: How To Error Check If User Input Is Letters And Not Numbers

Jun 9, 2014

How do I error check if the user is inputting letters and not numbers? For example, if the user inputs "Lab.txt" I need to display an error message. If they input "Lab2part2.txt" then this is correct and what I want.

I've found a lot of information online on how to error check for numbers or a single letter (EX: 1,2,3, etc. or 'A' 'B' 'C') but nothing for actual WORDS or maybe I should refer to it as a string of characters?

Is there any way to do this? Because my program requires I ask the user to input the name of the file. But the way my code is currently set up is even when the user inputs the wrong file name it still opens the file. I want to prevent this from happening so my thought was to error check user input.

/*Program to determine company's weekly payroll*/

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;
void OpenTheFile() {
ifstream inputFile;
string filename;
char letter;
int number;

C/C++ :: Program That Will Print Numbers In Columns From User Input

Oct 7, 2014

I tried to work on this program for while, but I am not able to get it to work

Directions:Write a program that reads an integer n from the user.

Display the first 100 numbers, with newlines every n numbers, using % operator

#include <stdio.h>
int main(void){
int a = 0;
int b = 99;
printf("Enter a number: ");
scanf ("%d", &a);

[Code] ....

When I run this code it asks me to enter a number. It doesn't matter what number I enter it gives me the numbers from 1 to 100 in one horizontal line.

I want this program to do something like this:

for example if the user enters n=6 the program should give:

0 1 2 3 4 5 6
7 8 9 10 11 12 13
and so on

C++ :: For Loop - Display Smallest And Largest Numbers From User Input

Jul 29, 2013

I'm suppose to write a program using (for loop) that asks the user to enter any amount of numbers, so that it can display the smallest and largest. My program successfully finds the largest, but it is always displaying 0 for the smallest, I think Im doing something wrong with the internalization but I dont know what to change it to.

This is what I have ....

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main() {
int amount;
int count;
int number = 0;
int smallest = 0;
int largest = 0;
cout << "Enter total numbers to process: ";

Visual C++ :: Write A Program Where The User Will Input Integer Numbers?

Oct 21, 2014

I have to write a program where the user will input integer numbers. How many numbers they enter is unknown, therefor you should use a repetition structure for the input. When the user is done, they will enter -1 to exit.

Create a dynamic array if the size=2( the initial size must be 2) Repeat until user enters -1.

I have to do this without using vectors.

This is what i have, I cannot figure out what to put in main. I was thinking of a do-while?

Code:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
void resize(int *[], int);
int main() {
int *listDyn;
int size=2;

C++ :: Cin Input Validation Returns Wrong

Jul 11, 2014

I have this function that is supposed to take a float as a parameter and then call the getLine() method to accept the users input. The function basically just checks to see if what the user input was of the same data type, if it is it returns the input value, if not then it keeps looping through taking new input until its correct. The problem is no matter what number you put in the output always returns as 140734799803512.

float InputValidation(){
float num;
string strInput;
while (true){
getline(cin, strInput);

[Code] ....

You also need to include <string> and <sstream>.

Visual C++ :: Input Validation Error Using Arrays

Jul 18, 2013

I have not completed this program yet, but I have already run into a snag. For the Input Validation part, every time you enter a number regardless if it is positive it will still display the cout statement: "Please enter positive values". The program runs correctly where I currently am at, but it just keeps reading that statement even if a user enters a positive value. I have run the debugger, but it really is not showing me anything other than I notice it jumping to that statement after every value that is entered.

Here is my code, once again I have not finished this yet, but I would really like to get this fixed first before I continue. I will keep debugging in the meantime...

Code:
// A local zoo wants to keep track of how many pounds of food each of its three monkeys eats each day during a typical week. Write a program that stores this information in a two-dimensional 3 X 7 array, where each row represents a different monkey and each column represents a different day of the week. The program should first have the user input the data for each monkey. Then it should create a report that includes the following information:

// Average amount of food eaten per day by the whole family of monkeys.
// The least amount of food eaten during the week by any one monkey.
// The greatest amount of food eaten during the week by any one monkey.

// Input validation: Do not accept negative numbers for pounds of food eaten.

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

int main() {
double totalAverage = 0; // variable to store the total average, initalized to zero
