C++ :: How To Change Clock Time

Nov 28, 2013

The system clock starts once the system is executed. But how can I update the clock value to certain other value? Let say, for example. If a=10, then, immediately the clock is set to 10 seconds after the current clock time. Is it possible?

C++ :: Operation Time Or Clock Cycles?

Apr 21, 2014

So I am making a game and I want to push performance to the limit. That's why I really want to know how many clock cycles every operation, cast, memory allocation - EVERYTHING takes. Or approximate time consumption ratio, anything like that.

I tried doing it myself: I created a timer based on clock cycle counting, measured time of an empty loop and the same loop with various operations inside, but the results were extremely inconsistent and confusing: empty loop would take more time that the same loop with an addition, the time would vary greatly,... I guess it's because of background operations using up some of the CPU...

Since I didn't manage to find anything on the internet I guess there might be something I'm missing: maybe it depends on the processor?

C++ :: Function That Makes Shows Time Entered In Clock Format

Mar 11, 2014

Program should continually have user enter a positive integer, and quits on zero entered. This entered number represents the total number of seconds and after each number is entered a function is called that displays the time in hours, minutes and seconds. Sample output is as follows:

Enter Total Seconds --> 3605 1:00:05

The function needs only one value parameter and should return nothing back to main. If the minutes or seconds are a one digit number then make sure to display a leading zero as the example above shows.

Here is my program. my question is how do i make the numbers appear like this? 1:00:05

#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;

[Code].....

C++ :: How Does Clock Return Same Value Every 72 Minutes

Apr 19, 2014

I am reading up on the clock() function: URL....It states: "On a 32bit system where CLOCKS_PER_SEC equals 1000000 this function will return the same value approximately every 72 minutes."

How could this return the same value, if clock is the number of clock ticks elapsed since program execution. Wouldn't the number of clock ticks continue to grow, and as such, when we divide by 1000000, the return value should continue to grow. So how does this function return same value every 72 minutes?

C++ :: Sleep Function When Drawing Analog Clock

Jan 19, 2015

Make an "analog clock" that is, a clock with hands that move. You get the time of day from the operating system through a library call. A major part of this exercise is to find the functions that give you the time of day and a way of waiting for a short period of time (e.g., a second for a clock tick) and to learn to use them based on the documentation you found. Hint: clock(), sleep().

OK, I wrote below code. It is in its primary stages and has not been completed yet.

#include <GUI.h>
#include <time.h>
#include <iostream>
using namespace Graph_lib;

[Code] .....

I expect the system in void clock_hands() (line 38) attaches hour1 (line 41) then waits for 1000 ms (using Sleep(1000)) then detaches hour1 and attaches hour2 this time. But it doesn't occur in practice. When the system reaches Sleep(1000); it seems to go into a comma! It doesn't show the hour1 so seeing the movement of clock ticks by the clock's hands will not be possible.

C++ :: Coin / Money Change Code Doesn't Give Exact Change

Feb 20, 2013

My coin/money change code works when there can be an exact change each time, i.e. when the 1 cent option is available. However, when the change options are only $10, $5, $1, 25 cents and 10 cents, it does not give me what I want for instance, I wanted to get change for $237.80, I was expecting to get:

23 10's, one 5, two 1's and 8 dimes. However, the code below is giving me 23 10's, one 5, two 1's and 3 quarters (there is no option left for the 5 remaining cents).how to fix it?

Code:
#include<iostream>
#include<algorithm>
#include<vector>
using namespace std;
void change(double cents, int a[]);
int main() {
double Dollars;
double cents;

C++ :: How To Use Time For Time Based Movement

May 1, 2013

So I'm trying to learn how to use time for time based movement and what not. I did this only knowing the command time(&variable)

time_t timer;
int I, X;
void main() {
time(&timer);
X=timer;
while(I==5) {

[Code] ......

There's probably some other better way to do it... Obviously but for now I see it as putting current time in X.

start while
take in time constantly until I is 5
constantly asking is time>X(preset time 5 seconds ahead)
if it is
display message and add one to I

Why doesn't this display my message after 5 seconds?

C :: Way To Change Font

Mar 6, 2015

how to use a keyboard. I have the program running now in Dev-C++, but the standard display letters on the monitor are small and sort of boring.Within a C program, is there a way to change the font to something stylish? Enlarge the letters? Change the color from letter to letter?

In the old days, there was graphics.h, but that isn't included now, and I would prefer to use some modern extension. I'd like to write it on Win7, then move it to Linux on Raspberry Pi. It would be nice to avoid a full-scale graphics system like OpenGL.

C++ :: Value In Loop Won't Change?

Sep 3, 2014

I am working on a program that is supposed to do I/O file streaming. I dont know if I can properly explain how its supposed to work but I have found the error on my code, I just dont know WHY the error is happening? If you look in the while loop, count changes values like it should, but MOVE and TIP doesnt. Count starts at value 2. So move is 108. Then count becomes 4, but move stays at 108?

tring rec;
fstream myfile("File.txt", ios::in | ios::out);
myfile.seekg(myfile.tellg(), ios::beg);
myfile.seekp(51, ios::beg);

[Code]....

The lines of code im getting errors on is

int move = count * 54;
int tip = move + 51;

Move wont change its value? It stays 108, causing this infinite while loop. Where is the error in my code to cause move to not change values like count does?

I seem to be struggling with I/O File streaming :(

C :: How To Change The Numbers Into Asterisk

Oct 10, 2014

i have my basic C program here (i'm new to C language):

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
int grade;
int A=0;
int B=0;
int C=0;
int D=0;
int E=0;

[Code]....

As you can see, it's only for counting how many students got the grades from A to E, but the problem is that i need to change it from numbers into asterisk

for example: 4 students got the grade A, and 3 students got the grade B

instead of displaying

A=4
B=3

i want it to display

A=****
B=***

C# :: Change File Format

Jun 20, 2013

I have installed VS 2010 and VS 2012. VS 2012 uses SqlServer CE 3.5 and VS 2012 uses SqlServer CE 4.0.The problem is that when a project uses a 3.5 file it tries to open it with 4.0 even if the app.config says to use the 3.5 provider. The version of the assembly is pulled right out of the GAC. I uninstalled 4.0 and the reference auto updated its version to 3.5.1. However after installing 4.0 again it changes to 4.0. The error I am getting is that 4.0 cannot open a 3.5 file....they changed the file format from 3.5 to 4.0 and they are not compatible.

C++ :: Getting Optimal Change In Cents

Sep 4, 2014

On one of my assignments I have to find the optimal change. For example, if I were to have 70 cents and had only quarters, dimes and pennies, the best way to receive change using less coins all together would be 2 quarters and 2 dimes (4 coins all together should be displayed).

All in all, I understand my assignment, however there is something I don't know how to do (or can't recall how to) and that is finding the the highest number in an array to use in a function and be able to compare it.

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
//function in which amount = money, changeArray is the array where money is stored,
//and numCoins the amount of coin types there are available in the array

int optimalChange(int amount, int * changeArray, int numCoins) {

[Code] .....

What I'm stuck with, is that I don't remember how to get the highest number from the array that way I can compare it with the total amount when I'm building my function. Also, the function has to call itself recursively.
