C++ :: Distribute Numbers Randomly - No Duplicates
Dec 13, 2013
I want to create a randomly ordered array of integers where there are no duplicates. Is there a way of doing this in one iteration? Or maybe even a standard function for this?
I'm looking for something like this:
A2 = [3 2 1 6 7 8 4 5]
I can't get the sum of two randomly generated numbers - I don't believe the program is adding wrong what I think might be happening is upon hitting enter its adding two new randomly generated numbers -
Code: // Program functions as a math tutor #include <cstdlib> #include <iostream> #include <ctime> using namespace std; int main() { // Constants const int Min_Value = 1;
The program is supposed to be printing 21 different numbers that are randomly generated. Why am I getting the same number 21 times? Using dev C++ compiler.
Code:
/*prints random numbers between 1 - 99*/ #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <time.h>
I have a error with one of my programs. I'm supposed to get rid of negative numbers when there are numbers that are randomly generated. Here is the middle part of the code.
{ int vectorLength = 10; vector<int> bothSigns(vectorLength); cout << " Input vector: "; for (int i = 0; i < vectorLength; i = i + 1) { bothSigns[i] = rand()%201 - 100;
[code] .....
The part where i'm supposed to start is after the /////'s. However, whenever I input a number for the random numbers(not put in part of code), i keep getting a segmentation error.
How to randomly insert certain numbers into a linked list with 10 nodes. Meaning I want to put for example numbers 1 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 50 in random locations in the linked list.
Code: /* generals is the first array. Max 10 elements. numGenerals is the element count of generals.
genBuff is the second array; it is to be checked/pruned. genCount is the element count of genBuff. genBuff will be a max of 171, but be pruned to no more than 10, and no more than the complement of the element count of generals. */

(I do have comments in the actual source, different from above).
I have two int arrays. They hold values from 0 to 170. The first one will never be more than 10. The second will be at most 171, but will be whittled down to at most 10, usually less. 171 is worst case, most users of this particular program will probably be reasonable and not try to add all 171 (max is 10 anyway). The first array is the original array. The second array is a temporary array. Any value in the second array that is also found in the first array, is removed from the second array, since all values in the first one must be unique. After this pruning process, both arrays will collectively contain no more than 10 unique elements; the elements from the second will be added to the first.
So right now I have three nested loops. I figured with the miniscule array sizes it wouldn't be a big deal. I can think of a way to remove one or two of them, but I want to be sure that I'm still writing clean, legible, good-practice code. The first loop walks through the first array. For each element in the first array, there is a second loop to walk through the second array to check for duplicates. If a duplicate is found, the third loop walks through the second array to overwrite the duplicate while preserving the second loop's position (j).
Is this dumb? I know that the big O gets worse and worse the deeper you go with nested loops. Even though the arrays are really tiny, is this still a thing to avoid?
bool HashTable::insert(char const * const key, const Player& aPlayer) { //calculate the insertion position (the index of the array) size_t index = calculateIndex(key); for(int i=0; i < capacity; i++) {

The inserting part works just fine, but the checking for duplicates where I compare the two values is crashing my program.
I have a program that's supposed to read in a file with comma seperated values. This file contains duplicates. The goal is to write a new file that does not contain any of the duplicates. I've successfully written the code to read in a file and create a new, identical file, but I'm failing at deleting the duplicates.
The format of each line in the file is: index,first_name,last_name,address,city,state,zip_code
This code writes the file I want (overlooking the duplicates) if I implement my equality operator as follows:
bool operator ==(const Person &a, const Person &B)/> { return false; //placeholder }
Obviously this doesn't get the job done, since it will never detect a duplicate. The problem is that whenever I try to write any meaningful code, the program writes an empty file. The idea I've been trying to implement is to compare each of the members of Person like this:
bool operator ==(const Person &a, const Person &B)/> { //if two Person objects have equivalent names, they are duplicates return ( (a.first_name == b.first_name) && (a.last_name == b.last_name) ) }
At first I thought the program was working just as before, but then deleting each line of the file as the result of an error in my code. However, I tried troubleshooting the problem by adding in
cout << a.last_name;
to parts of my code so I could see the value in certain places. Whenever I add this line or try to access a member of Person, the program writes a blank file.
I'm having some trouble printing the duplicates found in an array. Specifically, when the value is at more than 2 positions. So if the value 3 is at position 1, 10, and 11 it'll print three messages instead of two:
value 3 at position 1 is also at position 10 value 3 at position 1 is also at position 11 value 3 at position 10 is also at position 11
instead of
value 3 at position 1 is also at position 10 value 3 at position 1 is also at position 11
This is real simple problem, but I can't seem to figure it out. I've been trying to implement another array to 'remember' the encountered position, but I haven't had any luck.
Code: for(i = 0; i < num_count; i++){for (j = i + 1; j < num_count; j++) {if (num[i] == num[j]){printf(" value %d at position %d is also at position %d", num[i], i, j);}}}
I have same question as posted by holla and Iam not sure about merging the contents of 2 sorted arrays into another array without duplication of values.
I need to remove the duplicates but each part of the vector corresponds to the next location. They are pairs.
ex. bob corresponds to the its definition, which is sam.
I need to keep the first instance, so keep bob and sam, but remove the second instance of bob, so remove bob and sammon. Only the first instance of the pair need to kept.
It doesn't matter if the sam and sammon don't match, all that matters is the first part of the pair.
The vector is already in alphabetical order. I can't use the algorithm library.
I have a text file that needs to be read by command line arguments. The text are all numbers and can have multiple numbers on one line separated by a space. I cannot use an array or sort the numbers.So say I have a text file, listNums.txt:
12 473 8 29 30 1 8 248 17 55 29 84 5
Basically I need to read one number, find out if its odd or even by dividing by 2, search the odd or even doubly linked list that it would go into to see if its in there, if its not then add it to the bottom of the list.
I am very much a beginner at C and a large amount of it still tends to go over my head, I've created a 2d array which its size is generated from user input and filled with random integers. Next I need to locate the maximum and minimum figures in the integer and as dull..This is the code I have so far
Code:
#include <stdio.h>#include <stdlib.h> int main () { int firstDimension, secondDimension, firstDimensionIndex, secondDimensionIndex,index; int **table; }
So I have a vector that I want to iterate through randomly, and by random I mean that each element is only accessed once but I don't want to shuffle the vector because the vector elements are large. So I want this functionality:
std::vector<SomeLargeObjectWithoutACopyConstructor> myvec; // ...fill myvec std::random_shuffle(myvec.begin(),myvec.end()); for (auto& value : myvec) { // do stuff }
Only I don't want to do this because the object type has no copy constructor and is large, so I don't want to shuffle the vector, just the iteration path. Is there a simple and efficient way of iterating randomly through a vector while ensuring that each object is only accessed once?
I am making a game and I am attempting to get the zombies to move randomly but for the life of me, I simply don't have the knowledge with srand to do it
I want to create a word game using c. My question is it possible to set questions and the system will randomly display each? If yes, what's the right code?
Is there any way to generate random types I build? I know rand command returns random integers, but I want to create some classes and and a function that will generate randomly 3 objects of the types I have created.
