C++ :: Comparing Two Floats Ranges?

Dec 24, 2014

I'm trying to compare two float ranges and it seems to be a hit and miss. I'm trying to use a object origin and dimensions comparing it to another set for collisions.

C/C++ :: Generate Random Doubles Within Certain Value Ranges?

Apr 25, 2014

I made this pthread/mutex program that makes deposits and withdrawals of random amounts. I have it working how I wish, however, I cannot figure out how to make it so that the random values are only within certain ranges. For example, let's just say I want all deposits to be random doubles between 50.00 to 100.00 and withdrawals between 25.00 to 50.00, or something similar.

#include<stdio.h>
#include<string.h>

C :: Take Integer Input For Temperature And Display Message For Different Ranges For Each Day Of Week

Apr 20, 2014

I'm writing the program below to take an integer input for temperature and display a cheesy message for different ranges for each day of the week.

I tried using two if statements, the first to determine if the input is valid, and the else display that it was invalid and to try again.

The second set of if (if else) statements would evaluate a number input and display the cheesy message based on the value, or if it was out of range, to make you re input that days temperature.

I understand that the else statement is linked to the closest if statement, unless brackets are added to prevent this. I thought my brackets were correct, but I keep getting [Error]'else' without previous if'. The red lines are the if and else statement I'd like to be linked, and tried to do so by enclosing the 2nd if statement in brackets.

The assignment doesn't require the error checking, but if I don't use some form of it I believe it will just loop. Again I have to use the last 4 lines due to instructors rules, and have to use scanf and not strings or arrays.

This program will ask the user what the temperature will be for each day of the week. The integer input from the keyboard will be tested in a series of IF tests and a message will be printed depending on the temperature.

#include <stdio.h>
#define MAX 100
#define MIN 0

int main() {
int day = 1;
int temp;

C :: How To Printf Floats

Jan 30, 2013

I am having a hard time with some of my homework, specifically regarding how to printf floats. I can't seem to print the number i want out using float, it just becomes a jumbled mess.

Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#define TICKER "LRCX"
#define PURCHASE_DATE "01/02/13"
#define SELL_DATE "01/30/13"
#define INVESTMENT_AMOUNT "10,000.00"

[Code] .....

Thats the code I currently have, I've probably tried everything to get the number to come out, but I just cant seem to figure it out. It should look like this, but with different numbers and stock:

Stock: MCD Buy Date: 01/02/13 Sell Date: 01/29/13 Buy Share Price: $89.40 Sell Share Price: $91.50 Shares Purchased: 111.86

Amount of Investment: $10,000.00 Value of Shares Sold: $10,234.90 Amount of Gain/Loss: $234.90 Percent Gain/Loss: 2.35%

However, this is how mine turns out:

Code::Blocks
Enter share purchase price for LRCX=>23
Enter the selling price for LRCX=>23

Stock: LRCX
Buy Date: 01/02/13
Sell Date: 01/30/13
Buy Share Price: -1.#R
Sell Share Price: -1.#R
Shares Purchased: -1.#R

Amount of Investment: 10,000.00
Value of Shares Sold:-1.#R
Amount of Gain/Loss:-1.#R
Percent Gain/Loss:-1.#R%

Process returned 0 (0x0) execution time : 2.864 s

C++ :: Adding Two Floats - Summation?

Jun 27, 2013

I am very new at c++ and ran into this problem.

pairPercentage = ((float)tempPair/hands) * 100;
flushPercentage = ((float)tempFlush/hands) * 100;
totalPairPercentage = pairPercentage + totalPairPercentage;

is there something I should be awarded of when adding two float(s) ? because totalPairPercentage will always return pairPercentage, not its summation.

also did (totalPairPercentage += pairPercentage);

C++ :: How To Get Average Of Floats From A Vector

Apr 24, 2012

Say I have a std::vector of size 10 of float. This will be a windowing average, as each cycle I need to remove the oldest element and add a new element. I figured vector was good because I can pop_front() then push_back(). Is there any clever way to get the average of the vector without using a for loop?

C++ :: Getting Unexpected Outputs For Bitfields And Floats

Aug 7, 2013

I'm getting unexpected output in 2 different cases. The 1st deals with bitfields. The C++ standard has this line about integral promotions:

An rvalue for an integral bit-field (9.6) can be converted to an rvalue of type int if int can represent all the values of the
bit-field; otherwise, it can be converted to unsigned int if unsigned int can represent all the values of the bit-field.

If the bit-field is larger yet, no integral promotion applies to it. If the bit-field has an enumerated type, it is treated as any other value of that type for promotion purposes.

This sounds like the value of a bitfield will always be treated as a signed int if the signed representation of the value will fit in the bits. This seems to hold true for my C compiler, but not my C++ compiler.

I tried storing a small negative value in a bitfield that has enough bits to store the sign bit and the value. But when I print out the bitfield, I always get a large number

In the example code below, I expect the output:

Code:
foo.x = -1
foo.y = -2
foo2.x = 31
foo2.y = 6
foo3.x = -1
foo4.x = 4294967295 But I get: Code: foo.x = 31
foo.y = 6
foo2.x = 31
foo2.y = 6
foo3.x = -1
foo4.x = -1 -------------------

The other issue I'm having is sort of similar. I'm trying to store 4294967295 into a float, but when I print it out, I get 4294967296. i've tried storing a few other large values like this and what's printed out is rarely the value I stored. I thought it might be because of some int to float conversion, so I tried 4294967295.0. Still no luck. Then I remember that defaults to a double so maybe that's the issue so I tried 4294967295.0f. Still no luck. Why can't I store the correct value here? I don't think it's an IEE format thing since I can use these values as floats on a calculator program.

The example code showing both issues is below.

Code:
#include <stdio.h>
typedef struct {
signed char x : 5;
signed char y : 3;
}my_struct_t;

C++ :: Dice Simulator - Floats Rounding Up

Oct 28, 2013

I made this dice simulator which basically throws the dice 1 million times and outputs the frequency and percentage average for each side (1 to 6).

Everything is working fine, except my averages (floats) seem to be rounding up, causing 4% being "unassigned" at the end of the million rolls. I'm outputting with a setprecision of 2, but I only get 0's and no fractional numbers.

C++ :: Dividing Two Floats Not Giving The Required Quotient

Jan 9, 2014

Im using the remquo function in the cmath library as follows:

int quotient;
double a = remquo (10.3, 4.5, "ient);

This gives the correct remainder (a = 1.3) and quotient (quotient = 2).

Infact about 50% of the answers are right when I play around, however, trying something like:

int quotient;
double a = remquo (2.25, 1.5, "ient);

yields an incorrect quotient of 2 and remainder of 0.

I do think this has something to do with float arithmetic. I recall tinkering with the float number 0.500 and that the CPU actually saves it as 0.50000000000000231. However if my suspicion of float arithmetic as the suspect is correct, I do not understand why a tenth decimal would make such a drastic difference as changing the quotient result.

C :: Comparing Double To Integer

Feb 24, 2013

Given this code

Code:

double x=1.00,y=2,z=4;
if (y/z||++x)
x+=y/z;
printf("%f
",x); So (y/z||++x)

is true if at least one expression is true, that is either (y/z)!=0 or (++x)!=0 or both. I wonder how the comparison is done? Is (y/z) be truncated to integer or 0 be promoted to double?

C :: Comparing Pointer And Integers?

C :: Comparing Character To A Number

May 5, 2013

I created a function to check whether the first character of a string is a number or not by comparing it to every base 10 digit using a for loop. If it is, the string is valid, if it is not, the string is not valid

Code:
//ensure the first character is not a number
int ValidFirstChar(char FirstChar) {
int IsChar = TRUE, DigitCount = 0; /*boolean value indicating whether the first character is a number or not.*/

//check through all base 10 digits
for (DigitCount = 0; DigitCount <= 9; DigitCount++) {
if ((int)FirstChar == DigitCount)

[Code] ....

I have checked for the case where the first character is a number but it is displaying the error message for it. I have tried typecasting the char variable but that has not worked.

C++ :: Comparing Arrays To Have Same Elements

Sep 2, 2014

If I have 2 arrays, say array1 = {2, 2, 4, 5, 6} which has sorted array elements and array2 = {4, 2, 6, 2, 5} that has same elements as array1 but not in sorted condition. How can I compare that both arrays have same elements. I have written the following code which works in all conditions except when array1 has two same elements and array2 has all different elements.

counter=0;
for (i=0; i<5; i++) {
for (int j=0; j<5; j++)
if (array2[i] == array1[j]) {
counter++;
array1[j]=0;

C++ :: Comparing Two Strings With Strcmp

Jun 22, 2014

I have trouble comparing two strings with strcmp. The bold part of the code are the parts that are not working and i hope somebody can explain to me what i did wrong. Goal of the code is to compare a city name with the name of already created cities and when two of them match to creat a Street between them. Depending on the street pointer different streets can be created

my vector containing all already created cities (it seem to work)
std::vector<city*> citylist;//all cities

find city using strings and creating a road between them:

bool Map::add_street(Street *street, const string firsttown , const string secondtown) {
city* hilfs1=Map::find_city(erste);
city* hilfs2=Map::find_city( zweite);
if (hilfs1==NULL || hilfs2==NULL)
{return false ;} // Problem :both pointers are always NULL

[Code] ....

Here is also my implementation of the getname function :

std::string city::getname() {
return this->name;
}

C++ :: Comparing Value To Array And Outputting

Feb 6, 2013

i have 3 arrays total, 2 of them i am comparing to see if any of the values match at all, and then i am putting the value that matches into the 3rd array. currently i am trying

int isthere (int match[], int maxmatchLength,
const int vec1[], int vec1Length,
const int vec2[], int vec2Length)
{
for (i=0; i<vec1Length; i++)
if vec1[i]==vec2[i];
vec1[i] = match[i];
}

But this will just match the same values are in the same spot. how do i fix it so that it compares one value in the first array to the whole second array, before going to the next number.

C++ :: BST Comparing Parents To The Root

Mar 18, 2014

Lets say for example I have a BST that is sorted by char names, using strcmp. IF greater than 0 go right else go left.

I.E (this is just an example, they are not inserted correctly)

cat
/
dog buffalo
/ /
fish mouse zebra snake

I wanted to make a copy of this BST IF the length of the nodes are greater than the root, how would I approach this? I kinda started on this but I'm not sure if I'm making this more difficult than it should be.

void BST::copygreater(node * root, node *& dest, int & holder) {
if(!root) {
dest = NULL;
return;
}

holder = strlen(root->name) + 1; //Don't know about this? If we do a recursive call then the value would change every call?

C/C++ :: Comparing Strings With Pointers
