C :: Function To Check Whether Input Is Composed ONLY Of Alphabet / Space
Feb 15, 2013This code is supposed to ask the user to input characters at most 20 and they should only be composed of alphabets/spaces..
Code:
#include <string.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <ctype.h>
int main(){
char addressbook[6][30][0];
int current_record = 0, length, i=0;
[Code] ....
I have removed the error from the main code but there's still this lingering error in the return part.
syntax error before 'return'.
It won't compile.

C++ :: Input Validation - Prevent User From Entering Characters Or Symbols Instead Of Numbers?
Jul 19, 2013How do I prevent user from entering characters or symbols instead of numbers?
int num;
cout<<"Enter a number."<<endl;
cin>>num;
Also, how do I prevent user from entering a number instead of a character?
char c;

C :: Check Whether Input Is A Character Or Not
Apr 27, 2013Code:
char value;
printf_s("enter:");
if (scanf_s("%c", &value) != 1)
{
printf_s("oppppssss
");
}
else
{
printf_s("ok");
}
I wanted to check whether the input is a character or not, if a character is given then the output suppose to be "ok", but the output is always "oppppssss", where is the problem here?

C++ :: How To Check If Input Is Integer
Jan 15, 2013I have an assignment to do..i have done it..but i need to do one more thing. Things sound like this: user inputs 6 integers program needs to check them if there are integer if not it has to output a message for the user if the input is integer it has to go further and work with the input. I have used this structure :
if ( ! ( cin >> temp ) ) {
cout<<"Input is not integer.This program will end ! "<<endl<<endl<<endl;
system("pause");
return 0;
}
Where I declared temp as being int since i started, the problem is after it gets the last input still waits for an input i will attach the source code if needed.
C :: Check If Input Is Integer Using Only Loops?
Nov 3, 2013I have a homework that needs to verify if the input of the user is an integer using only loops no if statements Here's the problem:
A program is required that prompts the user for a number. The program will then print a series of asterisks to represent the number. If the user enters a number less than 1, the program stops. For example:
Enter a number: 5
*****
Enter a number: 3
***
Enter a number: 9
*********
Enter a number: 0
All user input must be validated:
- Check for non-numeric input when reading numeric input
- Check that values entered are within the expected range for their purpose, or in range based on the requirements statement
C++ :: Check Wrong Input Data
Jan 20, 2013i'm making a for loop for a mini game which required the user to enter the input number.Let say if the user accidently entered a character instead of integer the whole program will go haywire so is there anyway to check for the error and prompt the user to input the data again?Here is the simple program...
for(row=0;row<4;row++)
{
printf("Enter Row%d:",row);
for(col=0;col<4;col++)
{
scanf("%d",&num[row][col]);

C++ :: Check Input And Store Value In Array
Nov 8, 2013This program works but i need to build an additional loop that will re-prompt a user if his initial entry (int y_n) is other than 'Y', 'y', 'N', 'n'. For instance if a user tries to enter 'Yup', he will be prompted "That isn't a valid entry" and then re-asked to enter int y_n.
Note: If user answers Y he is asked to enter a value that is entered into an array. If the user at any point answers N, the program ends and final stats are cout.
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main(){
char y_n;
int i = 0;

C# :: Check Input Date Between 2 Dates (not SQL)
Oct 8, 2014In my WinForm, Our client insists to use Textbox instead of DateTimePicker field, and they want to input in ddmmyy format.
Using Visual Studio 2010 C# 4.0.
PC date time setting: GMT +08:00 dd-MMM-yy.
Assumed today date is 291014 (29-Oct-14).
CodeBehind:
DateTime inputDate;
// the WinForm allows user to input date not earlier than 2 years before today date and not more than 1 months from today date too.
//Assumed I input date as 261014 (26-Oct-14)
if(DateTime.TryParseExact(input, "ddMMyy", new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-US"), System.Globalization.DateTimeStyles.None, out inputDate)) {
DateTime minDate = DateTime.Now.AddMonths(-24);//Assumed it is 29-Nov-14
DateTime maxDate = DateTime.Now.AddMonths(1);//Assumed it is 29-Oct-12
I tried many methods but none works (I have checked many threads/forums also).
//Method 1
if(inputDate >= minDate && inputDate <= maxDate)
return true
//Method 2: B return true but A ***always*** return false, Why??
if (inputDate >= minDate)
A = true;

Visual C++ :: Check If Input Is Integer Or Not
Jun 20, 2014I have been trying to make a very simply programme that checks if the inputted information is an integer or not (i.e: that it contains no other characters).
I have tried using the isdigit function (but this only works for single characters). I have tried cin.clear, cin.ignore (1000) but this doesn't work either..
Any effective way to check if x in the following programme has been entered correctly
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main() {
cout << "Please enter an integer (positive or negative)" << endl;
int x;
cin >> x;
HERE I WOULD LIKE CODE TO CHECK IF THE USERS INPUT IS VALID
}
C :: Check To See If String From Standard Input Is Alphanumeric Or Not?
Dec 25, 2014I'm trying to check to see if a string from standard input is alphanumeric or not. I feel as though there may be a function for this but...
Code:
for(test_pass = i; test_pass < i; i++){
if(test_pass[i] == ('1', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6', '7', '8', '9', '0'))
printf("Your password is alphanumeric!
");
}
The compiler wasn't too happy with this.
C++ :: How To Improve Validity Check For User Input

C++ :: How To Check For Data Type When Input Value Into Program
Apr 11, 2013How would I check for proper data type when someone is to input a value into the program? Ex:
int i;
string a;
cout << "Enter a number: ";
cin >> i;
cout >> "Enter a string: ";
cin >> a;
How would you check to make sure that int i would be an actual number and not a letter like "a"?
C++ :: Formatting User Input And Check How Many Words Are In String
Feb 5, 2013I'm trying to write a short program that takes the input from a user and trims any leading/trailing white space, and then checks how many words are in the string. Problem is, I'm only allowed to use stdio.h and stdlib.h. How can I accomplish this? Also, how would I check if any of the characters which were entered aren't either a number, letter, or '-'?
View 3 Replies View RelatedC++ :: How To Error Check If User Input Is Letters And Not Numbers
Jun 9, 2014How 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.

Visual C++ :: Check For File Existence - Function Will Fail Or Return Non-zero Value
Sep 21, 2013Just wonder is it possible that if the file exist, this function below will fail by returning non-zero value?
_access( INIFilename, 00 )
00 - check for Existence only
I noticed that sometimes if even the file exist, the function will fail or return non-zero value. So trying to find out and duplicate this error. It tends to happen intermittently. How can I find out what causing this error?
Code:
char INIFilename[256]="C: emp est.ini";
unsigned long Error = 0;
if( _access( INIFilename, 00 ) != 0 ) {
Error= GetLastError();
printf ("Failed to access INI file %s (%ul)", INIFilename, Error);

Jan 10, 2013I built a C++ static library using WatCom IDE. It compiles without error, but running WLIB on it produces the msg:
Warning! Library contains no external symbols My WatCom compiler host is windows, & target is DOS.
If I convert the Library to an .exe program, by adding a main(), it executes fine, So there seems to be something I'm missing in the IDE settings for building a .lib.

It seems that it's just missing a space (and therefore a setw and setfill), but I found 2 problems:
1. The space needs to not apply to the first line.
2. I can't get it to make a space before each row without making a space between each column.
My current code is:
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;
int main ( ) {
int rows;
[Code] ....
I have tried putting in << setws and << setfills of various values but it seems to always apply to between each column as well as at the start of each row- what do I do?
