C++ :: How To Compare Values Of Two Objects Of Same Class
May 27, 2013
Running into a snag in my program. I can't seem to figure out how to have an object of a class be able to look at all the other objects of its own class.
Reasoning being, I'm working on a game with multiple ships flying around in the same space. Each ship is a class.
Each ship has an x and a y, and needs to compare the angle and distance of other ships' x and y coordinates to see if they're visible on the same screen.
How to tell an object to look at objects of its own class.
Here's some code:
common.h
#ifndef COMMON_H_INCLUDED
#define COMMON_H_INCLUDED
int dist(int x1, int y1, int x2, int y2);
int get_info(int which);
[Code] ....
Basically, I just don't know how to properly write a function, call, or how to get the info I need, to the Player::get_closest() function so that it can see the other play objects.
I was wondering if this was even possible and if so, how do I do it.
else if (speech.ToLower().Contains("truck") && speech.EndsWith(number)) { Here I would like to see if my speech had ended with any of the values i would have stored in the string "numbers". If it did, I would like to just take the value and add it to a new string called whatever }
I have tried this a million different ways and I cant get it to work. I'm not even sure how I would go about storing tons of different numbers in one string, or if that's even possible.
Overview of problem : I am using std::vector to hold objects of Subject. Now this vector contains lots of objects( with lots I mean 10-20 objects at max) . These objects have string member values like category and sub_category. Both category and sub_category can have string which can be same of other objects's sub_category & category.
Issue: Now I want my std::vector to have only those objects whose's sub_category are unique. If category is not unique that's not a problem .
Secondly if we found 2 objects having same sub_category then we have to delete one of them from the vector. we will delete it based on some rules example
Rules for deleting are if
i) instance of Subject ->category = " Land " OR if category = "Jungle" then delete other duplicate object , ii) if above condition doesn't match then delete either of them.
I am wondering , how would I compare the sub-items from the vector . For example. I have class say Subject
class Subject { public : // some constructors, // functions to get ., set category and sub category std::String get_sub_category() std::string get_category(); private: std::string category; std::string sub_category; }
I have vector which stores object of Subjects. Example : vector<Subject> copy_vector;
Now what I want is to delete the object from vector that has same sub_category I am not looking for source code buT i need a starting point,? Example:
copy_vector[0] = Animal object that has sub_category Tiger copy_vector [1] = Animal object with Lion as sub category copy_vector[2] = Forest object with sub_category Tiger
What I want is to based on some conditions(which I can do ) remove either Forest or Animal object containing Tiger. But for that how would I do comparison? I have written the function and have checked it.
std::vector< Subject >copy_vector; // copy_vector contains all the objects of Subject with redundant sub_category for( std::vector< Subject >::iterator ii = copy_vector.begin() ; ii != copy_vector.end() ; ++ii ) { sub_category = ii->get_sub_category();
Goal: Write a program that compares the values stored in the first array to the user inputted values in the second array.

I had to change my array initialization to one with a star in front of it:
char a1[]={"a","d","b","b","c","b","a","b","c","d","a","c","d","b","d","c","c","a","d","b"}; to: char *a1[]={"a","d","b","b","c","b","a","b","c","d","a","c","d","b","d","c","c","a","d","b"};
I also changed my 2nd array to one with a star in front of it: char *a2[20];
What does this mean exactly? Putting a star in front of an array?
Also, I am now getting an "unhandled exception" when I try to get input for my 2nd array:
What do I put to have UserNumber == 1-10? In other words I want it to say...
if UserNumber equals 1 through 10 <<<<This is where I'm having the issue.
Do this Else Do this
namespace ConsoleApplication1 { class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { Start: Console.WriteLine("Please enter a number between 1 and 10"); int UserNumber = int.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
I have a method that traverses a list to compare a number from the list to user input from elsewhere in the program. I have tried a few different things and I am probably overlooking something simple but my problem is my if statement is executing the else statement every run no matter if the input matches. This function is to return the location in the list that the num matches. -1 if no match, 0, 1, 2, otherwise depending on the number of nodes.
int NumberList::find(int num) { int temp = 0, count = 0; ListNode *nodePtr;
I am about to transfer a project I have written in Applescript and Objective C to Excel/VBA/dll. I have started with the Objective C functions that I want to place in a dll and call via VBA.
The Objective C is C with a thin dusting of special Obejctive C code to have it talk with Applescript and the rest of the project so in theory it should be easy to make dlls written in C from it.
But I have already problems with the tiniest of all functions. I am sure it can be done more effectively but right now I need to know WHY it doesn't work if I am ever going to be able to transfer the much larger functions from Objective C to C.
Here is my original Objective C code:
Code: -
(NSNumber *)game:(NSNumber *)games gamechange:(NSNumber *)gameskifte { int gamesab = [games intValue]; int gameskifteab = [gameskifte intValue];
In this book, item 3 is about never treat arrays polymorphically. In the latter part of this item, the author talks about the result of deleting an array of derived class objects through a base class pointer is undefined. What does it mean? I have an example here,
Code: class B { public: B():_y(1){} virtual ~B() { cout<<"~B()"<<endl;
[Code] ....
This sample code does exactly what I want. So does the author mean the way I did is undefined?
#include <iostream> using namespace std; class superclass; class subclass1; class subclass2;
[Code] ....
As you can see I want to create a dynamically allocated storage of references to a parent class each of which can then point to a child class, how ever I do not know how to extract the child class out again from that array so i may access its variable b.
Let's say I have a Car object , and it contains inner Engine object.
Code: struct Car{ Engine mEngine; };
In order to initialize the engine object NOT by the default constructor (if it has any) , we use initialization semantics:
Code: Car::Car: mEngin(arg1,arg2,...) { other stuff here }
Now it gets tricky: Let's say a Car objects has 10 inner objects, each object has about 5 variables in it . Car is a base class for , e.g. , Toyota class. you don't want the Car class to have a constructor with 50 arguments. Can the inner objects of Car be initialized from the base class , e.g. Toyota?
Code: class Toyota: Car(...), mEngine(...), mGear(..) { ... };
The other options are: 1) like said , create a Car constructor which gets 50 arguments, then initialize Car as whole from Toyota - the code becomes less readable and less intuitive 2) Car constructor which get built-objects as arguments and initialize the inner objects with copy constructor . the code gets more readable but then you create many excess objects .
// Predefine template delegate factory template < typename R, typename... Args > class brGenericDelegate ; // C++11 template alias to announce functor definition template < typename R, typename... Args > using brGenericDelegateType = std::function< std::shared_ptr<R>(Args...) > ;
[code]....
This template works fine for me. Now I have to compare, if the functors of the generic templates are equals ore not. Actually I see no way to reach this aim, because I've to cast the brDelegate on each request.
#include <iostream> #include "curve1.h" #include "curve2.h" using namespace std; int main() { Curve1 curve1Obj; Curve2 curve2Obj;
[Code]...
Base class Score has two derived classes Curve1 and Curve2. There are two curve() functions, one is in Curve1 and other in Curve2 classes. getSize() returns the value of iSize.
My base class header score.h looks like this:
#ifndef SCORE_H #define SCORE_H class Score { private: int *ipScore; float fAverage; int iSize;
[Code]...
You can see that I have used curve1Obj to enter scores, calculate average and output. So if I call getSize() function with cuve1Obj, it gives the right size that I took from user in enterScores() function. Also the result is same if I call getSize() in score.cpp definition file in any of the functions (obviously). .....
The problem is when I call curve() function of Curve2 class in main (line 23) with the object curve2Obj, it creates a new set of ipScore, fAverage and iSize (i think?) with garbage values. So when I call getSize() in curve() definition in curve2.cpp, it outputs the garbage. .....
How can I cause it to return the old values that are set in curve1.cpp?
Here is my curve2.cpp
#include <iostream> #include "curve2.h" using namespace std; void Curve2::curve() { cout << "getSize() returns: " << getSize() << endl; // out comes the garbage }
Can I use a function to simply put values from old to new variables? If yes then how?
I have been working on an assignment where I have to add three objects of a class Matrix. The class should have the flexibility to add more than two oprands without changing any operand on Left hand side of the '=' operator.
I need an array of class objects but am unsure of how one might accomplish this. I have so far...
//element class driver code Element Arsenic(lowCeiling, highCeiling); Element Cadmium(lowCeiling, highCeiling); Element Chromium(lowCeiling, highCeiling); Element Copper(lowCeiling, highCeiling); Element Lead(lowCeiling, highCeiling); Element Nickel(lowCeiling, highCeiling); Element Molybdenum(lowCeiling, highCeiling); Element Mercury(lowCeiling, highCeiling); Element Selenium(lowCeiling, highCeiling); Element Zinc(lowCeiling, highCeiling);
What I want to do is have an admin class which will hold all the employee objects, can add them, list and calculate salaries. I'm trying to make array of objects, not sure if it's right
here is the code
Code: #include <iostream> #include <string> using namespace std;
class Employee { public: Employee(string name, short type, int salary)
For a beginners C++ lab, I have a base class Employee and two derived classes HourlyEmployee and SalaryEmployee. In main, I have a vector defined as vector <Employee *> VEmp; It's then passed to a function to get the input, which works fine. But what I'm struggling with is another function with the header "printList(const vector <Employee *> & Ve)". It's supposed to loop through the vector and call the appropriate printPay function, which is a seperate print function inside each derived class. How do I loop through the vector and print it out? I was trying to do a for loop and something like "Ve[i].printPay();", but that doesn't work. So how would I do it?
Here's some snippets of the relevant code.
class Employee { .... virtual void printPay() = 0; }; class HourlyEmployee : public Employee {
i ran the following code in the latest version of code::blocks and it tells me that the objects cout and cin are not declared in this scope. what is the problem?
I used to use Turbo C++ 3.0 and i had no problem whatsoever with that compiler. But now i am trying to move to code::blocks but it is proving very very hard as all the standards have been changed.
I am a school student and thus, we had been told to practice on Turbo C++ 3.0 and now i am unable to unlearn it. Also, if i use printf in place of cout there is no error but i want to use cout as it is what i am comfortable working with.
#include<fstream> #include<conio.h> int main() { using namespace std; char name[20];
[Code] ....
Is there some document to which i can refer so as to get the latest C++ standards which is C++0x i believe?
I am working on a project that requires me to create objects from a abstract class that has 2 child classes (that need to be derived). Any examples on how to do this? I looked online and the examples were pretty vague. the main error that I am getting is when I make a temp object with & in front of it (such as Employee &genericEmp) it throws a must be initialized error.
