C++ ::  How To Get Amount Of RAM Available On PC

Mar 6, 2013

I bet there's a simple function that can return the amount of RAM available on the computer, or perhaps the total RAM on the chip.

Basically I want a way of making sure my program never tries to allocate memory when it can't... I know that Windows should stop this happening anyway but I want to make sure the program can take care of certain things if it happens.

C++ :: How To Read Input Of Arbitrary Amount Of Numbers Instead Of Specific Amount

Feb 25, 2015

I'm trying to make a program that allows the user to input an arbitrary amount of numbers and finding the largest of all the inputs but I keep having problems with the output.

javascript:tx('
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
//******************************************
//CLASS COMPARATOR
//******************************************

class comparator {
public:
comparator();

[Code] .....

And regardless of what numbers I enter, I always get the output of 10. Also I got the EOF idea from my textbook so if there is a better way of doing this I'd like to hear it. I don't know any clear ways that looks nice to end the while loop when the user doesn't have any more numbers to enter.

C :: How To Exit Out Of Scanf After Certain Amount Of Time

Oct 25, 2014

I'm trying to make a very simple reaction game where a random number flickers on the screen for a fraction of a second and the user has to then enter the number before another comes on the screen after a random amount of time. However I dont know how i would make it so that the user cannot enter anything after a certain amount of time has passed, below is my code?

Also FYI, clock_start is at 5100 because by the time the program actually gets to scanning in the first number the time is at an absolute minimum of 5050 milliseconds however obviously this is an impossible number to reach due to processing, my machine clocks in at 5080.

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h>
#include <windows.h>
int main(void){

[Code]...

C++ :: How To Allocate Huge Amount Of Memory

Mar 8, 2014

I’m writing an application for raw image processing but I cannot allocate the necessary block of memory, the following simple code gives me an allocation error.

double (*test)[4];
int block = 32747520;
test = new double[block][4];

off course with smaller block size (i.e. int block = 327475;) it works fine. Is there an allocation limit? How it is possible to deal with big blocks of memory?

C++ :: How To Get Keypress Within Fixed Amount Of Time

Aug 22, 2013

the program has to accept a keypress. It should wait for some fixed amount of time. If a key is pressed within this time, the program should call a function. If a key is not pressed in this time limit the program should continue its normal execution. The problem with getch() is that it essentially requires you to press a key and it does not allow other instructions to execute until the key is pressed.

C++ ::  How To Create N Amount Of For Loops Without Writing All Of Them Out

Aug 22, 2014

Say I want to exhaust all the possible combinations of 10 variables to find all the solutions to an equation with 10 variables.

I could write out 10 'for' loops, but it would take a lot of space in the code and of course would take a lot of time. Another reason why I want to know this is because it could possible allow me to change the amount of for loops just by changing a number.

I.e., how can I contract the following code into a simple, short form?

for (a[0]=0;a[0]<=9;a[0]++)
for (a[1]=0;a[1]<=9;a[1]++)
for (a[2]=0;a[2]<=9;a[2]++)
for (a[3]=0;a[3]<=9;a[3]++)
for (a[4]=0;a[4]<=9;a[4]++)
for (a[5]=0;a[5]<=9;a[5]++)
for (a[6]=0;a[6]<=9;a[6]++)
for (a[7]=0;a[7]<=9;a[7]++)
for (a[8]=0;a[8]<=9;a[8]++)
for (a[9]=0;a[9]<=9;a[9]++)
if (...)
cout << ... << endl;

C/C++ :: Converting Dollar Amount To String

May 18, 2014

I'm quite new to programming and working on an algorithm for the program so we would have to change that into a workable code for our final program.

This is the algorithm teacher gave us for reference (with the functional decomposition):

3.9.3 convertNetPay()
// convertNetPay(in netPay, out netPayString)
char * convertNetPay(float netPay);
void convertNetPay(float netPay, char * netPayString);

Algorithm:
convertNetPay(in netPay, out netPayString)

Declarations: numHuns, numTens, numOnes as integer
OnesTable as array[9] string = {"One", "Two","Three", ...."Nine"}
"One" --> 0
"Two" --> 1
"Three" --> 2
...

[Code] .....

So that goes my entire instruction on the assignment and I will start my code and be probably asking quite a bit of questions!

Here is my code so far:

Spoiler

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <cstring>
void convertNetPay(float netPay, char *netPayString) {
int numHuns, numTens, numOnes;

[Code] .....

C++ :: Sending Variable Amount Of Data Over Winsock?

Oct 31, 2013

Client:

Code: ....
string cmd = "dir c:filequeue > ";
string outputFilePath;
outputFilePath.append(getTempPath());
outputFilePath.append(" est.txt");
cmd.append(outputFilePath);
system(cmd.c_str()); // dir c:filequeue > %temp% est.txt
string content = get_file_contents(outputFilePath.c_str());

send(s, content.c_str(), content.length(), 0); I'm executing the "dir" command to get a listing of Folders/files of one Folder. Then I read the Output of the file and send it over winsock to the Server.

Now, the Problem is, I don't know how I can handle the recv properly, cause I have to set the buffer size without knowing, how much data is actually transfered. Sometimes maybe no files are in c:filequeue, sometimes a 100k.

So I tried to make recv as a Loop:

Server:

Code: ...

while (rc != SOCKET_ERROR) {
printf("
#");
gets(buf); //please no discussion about gets, I will Change this later ;)
if (strcmp(buf, "ls") == 0){
send(connectedSocket, "LIST", 4, 0);

[Code] .....

now it works, but as the recv blocks, it will never leave the Loop, even when the Transfer is finished.What should I do?

I believe I could make unblocking sockets, but that's a bit complicated. Isn't there an easier solution, with malloc'ing the buffer or a Signal when to leave the recv Loop?

C :: Find The Least Amount Of Coins Required To Make A Value

Mar 8, 2014

Write a program in C that will allow a user to enter an amount of money, then display the least number of coins and the value of each coin required to make up that amount. The twist to this program is the introduction of a new coin - the jonnie (value = $1.26). Therefore, the coins available for your calculations are: Twonies, Loonies, Jonnies, Quarters, Dimes, Nickels and Pennies. You can assume the amount of money user enters will be less than $100.00.

User enters $4.53. Your output should be:

The least number of coins required to make up $4.53 is 4. The coins needed are:

1 Toonie $2.00
2 Jonnies $2.52
1 Penny $0.01
$4.53

I'm wondering if i'm close. I'm stuck on what to do for the output. This is what i have so far.

Code:
//Start
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
//Get user input for amount of money

//Input
int i;
//Store input from user

C :: Malloc - Verifying Amount Of Memory Allocated

Sep 7, 2013

How can I view the number of bytes that have been allocated by using the malloc function?I tried:

mem = (float*)malloc(num*sizeof(float));
printf("The amount of memory allocated using malloc is %d.", mem);

Note: The variable "num" in my program is equal to 7.But every time I run the program, this value changes.

C++ :: Writing Calculations For Unknown Amount Of Students?

Jun 27, 2014

I need to create a program that continuously records data until the user enters '0'

The data that I read in is the student's last name, the year of the student (1-4), the major, the gpa, and the advisors name. I then need to print out how many students are in each year (1-4), the number of students each advisor has, the average gpa for each major, and so on. This is what I have, but I am stuck and think that I might be headed the wrong direction because the only thing working is the loop (not my gpa test calc).

//This program displays information pertaining to students
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main () {
int studYear;
double average, studGpa;
string studName, studMajor, studAdvisor, complete;

C/C++ :: Expected Outcome Error On X Amount Of Rolls

Feb 20, 2015

I have a program that rolls two dice however many times the user specifies and counts the occurrences of each total (2-12). I have to compare the results of the random rolls to the expected outcome and give the percentage of error between the two.

I have an example that tells me the sum to expected outcome are as follows if I roll 36 times: 2/1, 3/2, 4/3, 5/4, 6/5, 7/6, 8/5, 9/4, 10/3, 11/2, 12/1 but I don't know how to put that into code to get the expected outcome for X amount of rolls.

C/C++ :: Storing And Retrieving Large Amount Of Data

Nov 28, 2012

I have to store large amount of data and retrieve the same data then write into file in C++. Currently I am using vector to store and retrieve. But vector is taking more time to store and retrieve the element. Is any other best data structure to store and retrieve large amount of data in unordered way?

Example code:

int I1 = 700,I2 = 32, I3 = 16;
//declare and resize the vector size
vector< vector < vector < vector<DOUBLE> > > > vPARAM; 
vPARAM.resize(I1, vector< vector < vector<DOUBLE> > >

C++ :: Coin Program Not Taking In Amount Of Cents In Input

Mar 1, 2013

I'm currently working on a program to take the user's input as DDDD.CC and then converting it to the least amount of coins using quarters, dimes, nickels, and pennies. I was told to not use any doubles or floats as they would produce errors. And supposed to the use the library function atoi() after I take the input user's amount as a string to convert it into an integer.

So far the string input has worked and it produced the right number of quarters but it leaves off the cents. For example, I put in 352.23 and it gives the right amount of quarters but leaves off the 23 cents.here's my code:

#include <iostream> // Allows the program to perform input and output
#include <stdlib.h> // Atoi
#include <string>
using namespace std ; // Enables a program to use all the names in any Standard C++ header
int main() // Start of program execution {
string line ;

C++ :: Wrapping Native API Takes Ridiculous Amount Of Time

May 9, 2014

Just wrapping WIN32 is a pain. But I'm learning a shit load about windows in doing so. Designing good software is hard. Even though I can create any gui component I want. I'd have to spend the time to make it synchronous, asnychronous, and learn how to bubble up messages from the windows procedure. Then there is the ordering of components.I'm convinced People who actually used the native apis to make large softwares before autocompletion were INSANE!
