Error! Must enter a number between 1 and 5
Say I want to leave a program running and it stops when I press F9 for instance, I'm looking for something like (and note this is just a generalization).
#include blah

/key.press = F9
return 0;
I am asking for input for a char by using the _getch() function. The thing is that when a key is pressed multiple times it screws the program because it executes every single key that is entered.
I am asking for the user to enter a letter that will determine an action to be used in battle, like attack, magic, "use item", etc.
char option;
cout<<"Enter your choice for battle: ";
option=getch();
if(option=='a')
//Executes an attack
else if(option=='b')
//Opens magic menu
else if(option=='c')
//Opens item menu
Suppose the user enters a character, then the program executes an action by the enemy monster. This is where the problem arises, if the user entered multiple keys or if he enters input during the time the monster attacks, the next time it is the user's turn it will execute the first attack automatically because it keeps reading the input.
I want to know how to cut it off, so that it doesn't ruin the program like that.
How you can make a c++ program that checks to see if the user presses the power button on their computer? And if so, how?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to cout just the first 5 characters the user enters into a string. I'm not sure how I can discard or not show the rest of the characters they try to enter after 5.

In a rather large codebase, there is a set of recurring calls to a couple vararg functions (mainly for logging)
Code: logthis(foo, bar(), somefunction(parameter1,parameter2), somethingelse);
The number of parameters to this function is variable It has all types of variables, function calls, etc.
The code has thousands of these lines
There is now a need for a special version of the compile that will remove a lot of the code, among others is the logging.
Can I somehow #define the "logthis" name into something that'll remove all actual calls to the code. including the actual parameters/expressions to the call.
I can't afford to add #ifdef/#endif around each of the calls because there are too many of them, and because that'll cause some undisired side effects in our code conformance tests.
Code: #define logthis __noop
comes close, that removes the call, but it still causes the compiler to evaluate and validate all the parameters to the logthis function, which doesn't work because in this case, removing the logging headers also removes other members of the class that get used as part of the parameters to logthis()
if I could define logthis into // resulting in all the rest of the line being comments, but that doesn't work.
Preferably I'd like something to be portable, but I'll take a solution that only works on visual studio as well.
So i have this program that takes in user input and stores them into an array and then prints them, removes duplicates, and sorts in ascending order. The user can also stop by inputting a sentinel value (in this case -1). But i am also supposed to ignore any negative value besides -1. When i input any other negative value into the program it messes up. How would i go about ignoring the negative values?
Code:
#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
int input, nums[20], i, j, k, temp, count=0, count2=0;
for(i=0;i<20;i++)

I know I can use -isystem path to mark a path as containing system headers which shouldn't be included when generating warnings, and this works, but it doesn't work when the warnings are generated by instantiating templates from the library in my source code. Is there any way to ignore these template-instantiation-generated warnings too?

this is a sigment of my code. Compiler says that the error occurs in line 47 (marked by ***). Leaving out the braces makes it even worse.
how I can ignore strings from being entered by the user. When the use enter's a string it always evaluates it as even. I though I might use a cin.ignore(); but I am unaware of how to use it.

I want to write a c++ code, which will read in a file like this:
A: 10
B: 20
C: 30
while in the code, I would need the value of A B C, how can I let the cin ignore the labels like A:?
of course, I can write a file as
10
20
30

.
and use cin>>A>>B>>C; to read in those
but in this way, when the number of values increase, it is really hard to remember who is who?
The following Program ask a user to input a sentence. Program alphabetically sort individual character for each word.
My problem is, how do I ignore case sensitive if a user enters a uppercase letter. I try using stricmp but ran into some errors.

What I want:
input: Today is a Great Day
output: adoTy is a aeGrt aDy
I've written a simple program, which asks the user to respond to a YES or NO question using the character Y/y for YES and the character N/n for NO. The foundation of this program is based around several IF statements implemented to aid in finding the ASCII value of the character entered before invoking the corresponding cout statement that informs the user which character they entered. My Question: How should a program be written to deal with ignoring case sensitivity in regards to the users' input?
Here is my amateurish attempt,
Code:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
[Code] .....
The following are IF statements written for the program to determine whether the user answered YES or NO. The program then performs the cout statement that contains the corresponding character to the ASCII value found.

if(user_input == 121 || user_input == 89)
{
if(user_input == 121)

1): write program to c++ to read three numbers from keyboard and find the average of the three numbers?
2): write program c++ to read two numbers from keyboard and swap between numbers like x=4; y=6; the result x=6; y=4;?
I think that int can do that job. but im not sure.
3): must be the result of positive example: (x+(-y)=z)?
with abs ?
4): values for each of : X= ;y= ;z= ;
