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.
I want to round to the 2nd digit in a float. Such as 1.85458 to 1.85. How would i go about doing this. I currently keep rounding to the closest integer so the above would round to 2.
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>
int main(void){
float n;
[Code] ....
Why the roundf function is not successfully rounding my numbers.
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>
//function declarations
void CelToFah (int ctemp, int ftemp);
[Code]....
it produces a correct number when called, but it is not a rounded number, the roundf((float)cel) does nothing. I get the same number with and without it.
I'm having trouble with rounding to the nearest cent in this program. It's the only thing that i need. The result i need is just off by one cent. I tried multiplying the interest amount by 100 and adding .5 then dividing all that by 100 but that just made it worse. Here's the code:
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
int count=0;

I have an assignment for uni which requires the program to ask the user to input a number in for a variable to use in later equations. The assignment specifies that if the number that is input into the program is not an interger that it needs to be rounded UP to the nearest interger. e.g. 2.5 = 3, 5.00001 = 6 etc. i have identified this variable using "int" which i know makes it an interger however it also always rounds the number DOWN to the nearest interger. I was just wondering what the best way to approach this problem was. The only idea i have is to put + 0.99999 at the end of this variable when it is worked out so that if it is not a whole number it will be raised above the next interger and then rounded down however this will not work if there is too many decimal places.

I found a way to do it in math but I want to know what I'd have to put in C++. It's (x*2+.5)remove decimal numbers and divide by 2. What do I put in place of "remove decimal"?
For ex; x = 8.4 using (x*2+.5)remove decimal then divide by 2.
8.4 * 2 = 16.8
16.8 + .5 = 17.3
17.3 - decimal = 17
17/2 = 8.5
I want to do something like;
cout << " Half number: << (x*2+.5)remove decimal/2 << endl;
What would I have to put in place of "remove decimal"?
Ok so I'm in a programming 1 class working with c++. I have the following assignment:
Write a C++ program that:
asks for and accepts the Percentage earned with as a double (i.e. 75.45)
rounds it to an integer (>= .5 rounds up, <.5 rounds down.)
prints the original Percentage and the corresponding Grade and Points exactly as shown below.
prints an error message for any input that is less than 0 or greater than 100.
For example, if user enters 89.4, the program prints out:
Percentage: 89.4% Grade: B Points: 3.00
You must use an if-else statement to do this in your program.
Use fixed and precision output manipulators (see Ch. 3) to display the values with the exact precision shown above.
IMPORTANT:
Each if statement condition should contain only one comparison! read this again
This means code that is similar to this is NOT okay: if (Percentage >= 80.00 && Percentage <90.00)
This code is not acceptable because the if statement condition above has two comparisons.
(Hint: If you order your if-else chain statements correctly, you will only need one comparison in each.)
I have the program working, but I'm pretty sure I'm not rounding how my professor would like it to. This is my code:
#include <iostream>
#include <cmath>
#include <iomanip>

So my issue here is the rounding, and then theres the converting the double percetnage to an integer. In my next assignment I have to write the program with a switch statement.
I have made a random number generator to create a number between 1000 and 9000, but I always get numbers with many 10s and units. I want to round them 100s.

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:

#define PURCHASE_DATE "01/02/13"
#define SELL_DATE "01/30/13"
#define INVESTMENT_AMOUNT "10,000.00"

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

How would I be able to round a number in multiples of another...
Let's say width is 150
And multiple to be 64...
I want 150 to become 128...
if it was 160 to become 192...
The width number will change and I want to covert it in multiples of the other number example 64... The minimum value will always be the multiple number used...
I'm attempting to make a cache simulator in C++. But I need to access individual bits in an integer to figure out where in my "cache" the writing actually gets done. I'm pretty new to bit shifting. Say I'm trying to access the the bits of the int 5, which are its "address". I'm simulating a direct mapped cache. I need to find its tag, the set it goes into, and which line. How do I use bit shifting to access the bits to acquire the tag, the index bits, offset bits, block number...all these pieces in order to actually find where I store it in the cache.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI've been working on creating a simulator to crash two galaxies together as part of a project to stress test a CUDA super computer. I've got a long way to go and am currently just working on correctly simulating n-body gravity functions. First I will use this to simulate the cores of the galaxies (the black holes) and eventually the stars.
So long story short I'm working on the beginnings of a gravity simulator. At this point I found some basic code that works well but doesn't quite give the effect I'm looking for.
The code below only pulls each object towards each other like a spring faster and faster until they shoot off into infinity. I try to give one of my bodies an initial velocity to get it to orbit another, but it always just shoots straight at the other body. I'm thinking I need to factor in inertia so that the initial velocity doesn't just get calculated away really fast by the other calculations.
I'm really looking for a bit of direction to get a real gravity simulator with orbits and such working right so eventually I can scale it up to a galaxy, throw in 100B stars and let the CUDA run for a month..
Code:
void update_galaxies(GLdouble elapsedTime) {
//Calculate gravity simulations
GLdouble r1, r2, r3;
r1 = r2 = r3 = 0.0;
for(unsigned int i = 0; i < galaxies.size(); i++)
[Code] ....
As you can see, I'm calculating all the bodies in a vector called "galaxies" with each other, and doing a basic gravity calculation to it. The update_position function simply takes the calculated acceleration and uses it to calculate the velocity and position based on the "elapsedTime".
I think I need to use the Varlet or Runge-Kutta integration methods, after doing a bit more research.
I am new with C programming and trying to learn how to create functions such as floats. But for some reason when I try to compile this program the compiler will tell me Weight() is not a function.

{
float Weight = 0;
g = 9.81;

How do I use bit shifting to access the bits to aquire the tag, the index bits, offset bits, block number...all these pieces in order to actually find where I store it in the cache. I need to break the bits up into 3 sections: tag, set index, and block index. I think I can figure out the set and block index sizes based on the values passed in. The tag bits are just the remaining ones. And I'm hard coding values such as cache size (C) - 1024, number of physical address bits (m) - 32, block size (B) - 2, number of lines per set (E) - 1 (again, directly mapped cache). How would this look? I'll be using unsigned longs, so it can handle up to 64 bits.

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);
Can we use modulo to compare two floats?

View 5 Replies View Relatedhow do you convert integers into floats / I remember there is something like ftoi, I am looking into something handy like the std
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'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;

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.
