C :: Compiling Warning - Output Is Garbage
Mar 23, 2013
I'm working on my program that takes input of the employees' first and last name, their payrate, their deferred from check and also the amount of hours they have worked which then the gross is calculated and also the taxes are calculated by an external function. In the program design it is necessary to put arrays which I have done, but when i compile I receive warning messages
Code: warning: format '%s' expects argument of type 'char*', but argument 3 has type 'double'
Warning: format '%f' expects a matching 'double' argument [-Wformat] which I believe is causing my program to just give me garbage when I run it. What do those warnings mean?
Code:
/* Name: Arturo
Date: 03/22/13
Purpose: To learn
*/
extern void calculate taxes(float gross,float deferred, float *ft, float *st, float ........i);
void ovtHrs(float *hrs_wrk, float *ovt_hrs, float hrs, float *gross, float payrate);
void netPay(float gross, float deferred, float ft, float st, float ssi, float *net);

Here's my code:
struct Member {
char *name;
char *address;
char Interests[][10];//<------problem
int numofInterests;
Numbers digits;
[Code] ....
Now the Program:
newMember.Interests[numofInterests];
newMember.numofInterests = numofInterests;
for(int i = 0; i < numofInterests; i++) {
printf("Enter %s's %i interest: ", newMember.name, (i+1));
[Code] ....
it's a array of cstrings, but i can't figure out how keep it from outputting garbage, i'm assuming it's because i didn't end it with a null terminator but when i did, it didn't work.

So i have this code:
if (get_brick_at(Position(row, column)) == NULL)
Where get_brick_at is defined like this:
>Brick& get_brick_at(const Position & p) {
return board[p.get_row()][p.get_column()];
}
Now, of course this does not work since the compiler cannot convert from long int to a Position. So how do i know if the return value of get_brick_at is garbage?
I also have a couple of other situations where i want to return some kind of NULL-like value under certain circumstances.
My question is: How do i handle situations like that?

Code:
// Lab0Inventory.cpp : Starter lab
//Anastasia Glyantseva
#include "stdafx.h"
#include <fstream>
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <sstream>
[Code]....
I can't figure out why my makeString gets called first and the pString its called with contains garbage. I want my allocateMem to get called first, but my program is not going to that. What is wrong with the order of my code?

Im programming client/server app that client provide the file name then the server send it to client then the client will save it ..this is part of code in client
Code:
char buffer[1024];
printf("FIle is being downloaded ...
");
printf("%s
",buffer);
}
[code],...
So i have 2 problems ::
1st one is when i write to file the file permission i cant define it with data type mode_t ,so the file does not open at all after creation...
2nd one is: the data in buffer is less than 1024 ,the data wrote to buffer but with garbage data . How to make the file read only the real data with garbage ??

I have a program that runs fine but outputs garbage and skips processes when I input a decimal. It compiles fine and has no errors.
Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <float.h>
using namespace std;
int main() {
int x;
int y;

Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
// Define doubly linked list structures
typedef struct link singleLink;
typedef struct trashLink singleTrashLink;
struct link {
[Code] ....
Alright, my code is almost complete, I just can't get the clearFromList function to work correctly.
Here's what the program does, in a nutshell:
- Create two doubly-linked lists, one to hold numbers 0 through i, the other to hold a randomly generated list of numbers no greater than i to be "trashed". The same number cannot be "trashed" twice.
- Go through the main doubly-linked list and "skip over" the numbers that are listed the trash doubly-linked list (i.e. "delete" them without actually freeing them).
- Free both lists at the end.
I still have to free the trash list, but that's easy. I'm just stuck getting the clearFromList function to "skip over" each number in the main list that is added to the trash list.

The program works, other than if I place the cursor below the last line in my merch file, the program outputs a line of garbage. The only solution I could find is to leave the cursor on the last line.
Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
struct vRecord {
string venue, item;
float price;

I have a class that uses std::vector. I push back class objects onto the vector but when I try to cout the data members (with get functions) I get garbage values.
Here is the class:
#ifndef JOBS_H
#define JOBS_H
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <vector>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
class Jobs{
[Code] ....
I know I am missing the implementation of several functions but I'm just testing my vector to see if it is working and it isn't. The getBlockValue() function should output 0 for each job. When I push back one object the output is 0. When I push back 2 objects the output is 0. However when I push back 3 objects I get random values. Why is this? I thought vectors were dynamic?

I wrote a program that tries to tokenize a mathematical expression, inserting the tokens in a list of strings. The list is as follows:
typedef struct listOfStrings {
char **array;
int size;
} ListOfStrings;
There is even a function to initialize the listOfStrings. The thing is: I'm printing a token every time it is complete and every time it is inserted in the list. The output is okay. However, when all tokens are processed and I call function print_list_of_strings to print the tokens again, the first token is printed with a leading garbage value if the input for the program is "3 + 4 * 2 / ( 1 - 5 ) ^ 2 ^ 3". How is this possible? The code for printing the list is as follows:
void print_list_of_strings( const ListOfStrings *const lPtr ) {
int i;
int numberOfElements = lPtr->size;
if ( numberOfElements != 0 ) {
for ( i = 0 ; i < numberOfElements ; ++i ) {
[Code] ....
The list just prints --- if it's empty, although this isn't the case for the program I'm writing. Also, if the input is "1 + 2", everything goes fine. The code for inserting at the list is:
int insert_at_end_of_list_of_strings( ListOfStrings *lPtr, const char *const str ){
int lengthOfStr = strlen( str );
int numberOfElements = lPtr->size;
if ( ( ( *( lPtr->array + numberOfElements ) ) = ( char * )malloc( ( lengthOfStr + 1 ) *

How do I detect garbage chars in a CString. Actually I'm reading some data from COM port. In some certain condition it will give some garbage as a version no. Now I need to show _T("N/A") in case of there is any garbage.
My solution is to check for a Valid char or integer. If found its correct else Garbage.

I'm doing some file input/output work here in C and received this warning during compilation (GCC). My research indicates that this error is in response to white space or a character cancellation function or something like that. I'm not 100% sure exactly what it means. My code works fine, but the following warning does appear.
Code:
warning: unknown escape sequence: '40'
Here's my code (excluding a bunch of comments at the bottom of the file).
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void){
FILE *file;
file = fopen("Running Practice.c", "a");
fprintf(file, "Testing...
");
fclose(file);
}
I believe the error I received has to do with either the ' ' I used when appending text to my file, or something to do with there being a space in the file name itself.

Here is my overloaded operator :
const double & Waz::operator()(int i,int j) const {
return ((WazImpl const)(*p))(i,j);
}
Where in Waz class I have : WazImpl* p; and in the class WazImpl I have an operator () const
The warning is : Warning C4172 returning address of local variable or temporary
As far as I understand I'm returning a temp variable which is destroyed somewhere else what can I do to fix it?

I have a function that I want to exit gracefully when an "error" occurs in an input file. My function declaration is:
Code: BSTnode *buildTree(FILE *fp)
The few lines that are causing the problems are:
Code: if(regcomp(®ex, to_find, REG_EXTENDED | REG_NEWLINE) != 0) {
fprintf(stderr, "Failed to compile regex '%s'
", to_find);
return EXIT_FAILURE;
}
I know that if I just use "return" by itself the warning goes away but fails to exit when the error occurs. I also believe this may not be the correct use of stderr. But I need the program to exit when an error has occurred.

recently I wanted to add some warning message when imputing date (DD.MM.YY) is older than some pre-set value.
day DD
month MM
year YY
pre-set date 21.7.2014
The condition I have is
if((YY < 2014) ||
(YY == 2014 && MM < 7) ||
(YY == 2014 && MM == 7 && DD < 21){
//warning message
}
Now I was just curious if there is easier way to implement this condition. To use less code. When I extend the condition to hour:minute:second the code would only grow fast. Also I know I should not use "magic numbers" but it is only for the demonstration.
