C++ :: Grading Multiple Choice Test - Getting Infinite Loop?

Nov 4, 2013

I am writing a program for grading a multiple choice test. The test data is pulled in from another file. My problem is that its only pulling in the first line of data and running an infinite loop without reading the next line of the data file.

My code is as follows:

PrintPurpose ( );
cout << student << " ";
cout << answers << " ";
inData >> key;

C++ :: Randomized Multiple Choice

Feb 20, 2012

I have gotten my code sorted out, and now it works. But to be adaptable to 3pi robots, which I will be loading it into eventually, the user has to be given three letter (a, b, c) multiple choices for answer input to the math questions. The three choices have to be randomized everytime the program loops too. Currently it just runs on number input.

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h>
#include <math.h>
int menu();
void addition(int *Preward); // function to return truth values
void subtraction(int *Preward);

C# :: Multiple Choice Symptom Checker?

Mar 9, 2015

I'm doing a project through college which is a diagnostic and support tool for Windows OS's. The application at the moment has a simple expert system which is a Combobox with strings that relate to common PC problems. Then those strings are put through a switch statement and relevant commands are shown to fix the problem i.e. "My printer is not working" will disable all buttons except for printer management, spooler folder etc.

My supervisor who marks my project has said this isnt good enough and wants a more layered hierarchy approach so he's looking for 3-4 groupboxes with tickboxes inside them and users tick the boxes that relate to their problem which will give the functions to support. The only way I can see to do this at the moment is a massive nested switch statement that is really not worth the time. There are 60+ functions in my program so you can imagine how long the switch would be trying to pick and iterate through all of the possible answers.

I'm just trying to figuire out an easier way to do this, rather than a massive switch statement. Something like WebMD which has 4-5 tick boxes and can give out the same answer for different symptoms.

I've attached a Flow Chart I made of the hierarchy Im trying to go for [URL] .....

C/C++ :: Assigning Variable From Multiple Choice Answer

Oct 29, 2014

I tried to create a multiple choice list and I want to assign the value of the answer option chosen by the user so I can use it later on in the code. Later on in the code i've asked how many people (p) want a drink and multiplied it by the chosen size to calculate the price c = p * n where c is cost, n is price and p is number o of people At the bottom i tried to assign parameters where depending on what option the user has chosen n will be assigned to the chosen value...

{
printf("SELECT TYPE OF PAINT:"); /*multiple choice of paint */
printf("1. Large ");

C++ :: Multiple Choice Function - Using Character As Parameter

Feb 20, 2012

I have a multiple choice function below that is part of a larger program but I am having trouble having it operate with characters as inputs and arguments. It has to be a character input, but I kinda want it to act like an integer, how do i do that?

Code:
void addition(int *Preward) //function that is called by the users selection {
int random1, random2;
int order;
int one, two, three;
int rando1, rando2;
char a, b, c; // ERROR

C++ :: Stuck In Infinite Loop?

Feb 24, 2015

my code seems to enter an infinite loop should a user mistakenly enter a character other than a digit. The code is about selecting from a preset number of options, numbered 1- 4. If the user mistakenly enters a letter for example, instead of a number, the infinite loop kicks in...

C/C++ :: Infinite Loop Of Asterisks Or Nothing At All?

Jan 27, 2015

So I have to create a program which will print, among other things, a rectangle made of asterisks. The rectangle has to follow this general format:

*****

* *

*****
but with the width and length of the rectangle being set by the user. I've tried every way I can think of to work this out, but I can't seem to get anything to work. The main errors I'm getting are either an infinite loop of asterisks filling my screen or nothing at all, depending on whether I use an && comparison or ||. A screenshot of my code is included below.

C++ :: Stopping Infinite Loop?

Feb 20, 2013

The code below gives me the maximum odd number and the minimum even number of a list of numbers that the user type. However, for the loop to stop the user needs to type 1000. Is there a better way (without having to have a "stopping" number, just in case I need this number to be somewhere on the list) to get the same results?

Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <cmath>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main() {
int x, maxi, mini;

C++ :: User Input - Infinite While Loop

Sep 5, 2014

I have a small loop that gets the user input, as well as acts as input validation to make sure he or she doesn't enter a value that is not within the specified range.

The user is supposed to enter a month number. E.g. if he or she chooses February, then enter 2, or December, 12.

It works correctly if they type a number that is not in the range, but goes into an infinite loop if, say, they type a string such as "month".

Code:
int main() {
// Variable Declaration(s)/Initialization(s)
int month=0;

// Get input
cout<<"Enter a month";
cin>>month;

[Code] ....

How could I go about revising this?

C++ :: Infinite Loop After Char Is Entered?

Nov 17, 2013

I have the program working but when I check if the input to make sure it is not a char it creates a infinite loop. I used an if statement to check for the issue and solve it but its not working. I even tried throwing an exception but I learned later they are not used for things like this.

Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <limits>
#include "contacts.h"

C/C++ :: Infinite For Loop - Program Just Closes

Feb 10, 2015

So I learned how to make a basic for loop and I decided to try my best to make an infinite one. Every time I run it, it doesn't say anything and just closes. Visual Studio doesn't say there's anything wrong with my code.

Here's the code

#include <iostream>
#include <conio.h>
using namespace std;
int main () {
int d = 9;
for(int k = 10; k < d; k = k +1) {
cout << "For loop value = " << k << endl;
getch();
} }

I currently have a hangman game in the making. Which is giving me debugging issues when I go to pick a letter, it will keep asking for a letter, if I place a break; within the loop it asks for a letter and says you've won. I know all I should need is a couple extra lines somewhere within the code.

C++ :: Stop Infinite Loop By Pressing Enter

I wondering how to stop a infinite loop. The program clears a file then opens it and refreshes it over and over(the file is going to be modified by another program). I want it to start from the beginning anytime i press enter or escape, it doesn't really matter as long as you can restart it.

Here is the complete code:
