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
using namespace std;
/wait 2 hours
/key.press = F9
return 0;
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'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]...
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.

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!

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

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.

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.
How do I make a specific character show up a specific amount of times?
Like I am generating a random number then I need to make "|" show up that many times on the screen.
I'm making a program that would run 24/7 and that could be run on multiple computers that are all running Windows (the program would be in the startup folder of the computer).
So I'm searching for 2 functions, one that would check if the program has been already launched on this computer and another one that would do a save every 24 hours. but for the second one I don't know what I should do because I think that a loop with sleep() would take too much power for the cpu

How to write a code that will let me input how many variables I want.
Write a program that will enable you to enter a certain amount of values
Eg. 4
And then add the corresponding integers. Ex.
Choice: 4 12 34 56 78
The sum of the integers is: 180.
How do i make the srand() function make new numbers every time i call it? Now it seems like it repeats its result over an over again.
Below is a program that should generate random numbers for 3 dices and print these out. But it prints out the same nr over and over.
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#define MAX 100
int filler(int dice1[MAX], int dice2[MAX], int dice3[MAX]) {
int throws, nr;
printf("Define the number of throws");
scanf("%d", &kast);

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.
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 ;

Write a program that will input the amount of chairs sold for each style. It will print the total dollar sales of each style as well as the total sales of all chairs in fixed point notation with two decimal places.
The program runs fine I am just have problems with the output. I have tried a few different methods for the fixed point notation, but I am getting results like 324.5 rather than 324.50?
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main() {

I am an IT college student and this is a self-assigned project i have done in an attempt to learn programming in C AND at the same time how time scheduling of an OS works (Both done in order to prepare for upcoming semester exams) using FCFS ,SJF, RR and PS algorithms (planning on adding SRT too sometime soon). (took me 9 hours total work time including validations). What i wanna know is from more seasoned coders if i am on the right track. *cross fingers*

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#define P_Q 1000
int main(int argc, char *argv[])

I'm trying to display the AM/PM on my program:
Also is there a way to display the time only instead of the date? How will i change the program to display the time in standard 12 hours, instead of 24 hours?
#include <iostream>
#include <time.h>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
time_t tim;
time(&tim);
cout << ctime(&tim);
}
I'm challenged to write a program which calculates the time difference between two daytime.
compiler doesn't give an error, yet the warning: "format '%d' expects argument of type 'int *', but argument 3 has type 'int' [- Wformat]" for lines 24 and 26
However, by entering the first time the program crashes anyway. so I assume I do really need some pointer to make it read from the console can you see where my problem is?
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
typedef struct {
int Second;
int Minute;
int Hour;
}Time;

I have a weird problem, my computer restarts imidiately after program writen in dev-cpp is compiled AND run. When I run any program, it lasts about 1 second, then program closes, and computer reboots. It doesn't matter whether program is writen now or earlier, my dev-cpp version is 4.9.9.2. Source code can be as simple as this:
#include <iostream>
#include <conio.h>
using namespace std;
int main() {
getch();
return 0;
}
and it restarts anyway...
I am trying to create a program that calculates fraction of time remaining when a student leaves during the middle of the semester. I have to use function files here. I am having trouble with the division in function long double tuitionfrac(int, int, int). No matter what numbers are entered, fractime gives an output of 0. I don't understand that.
long double tuitionfrac(int opening, int leaving, int semend)
{
int lefttime = semend - leaving;
cout << "Left time " << lefttime << endl; //for error checking
int tottime = semend - opening + 1;
cout << "Total time " << tottime << endl;
long double fractime = lefttime/tottime;
cout << "fractional time " << fractime << endl; //always returns as 0.
return fractime;
}
I want to know if there is a function or library that starts counting time when the program starts. Because I'm making a program that is dependent on time.
Pseudo code
time starts
if ( seconds % 2 == 0 ) {
counter++;
}
I've search the web, and solved all the errors that appeared till I got a clean build. Now any time I run the code I run into this issue.
enter hour of mtime : 19
Mmin: 26
Msec: 05
standard time is 12:00:00 AM
military time is 00:00:00
I can't figure out why this isn't displaying any of my inputs.
#ifndef TIME_H
#define TIME_H
class Time {
public:
Time(int = 0, int = 0, int = 0);
~Time();
int hour; // valid values are 0 to 23
int minute; // valid values are 0 to 59
[Code] .....
how can i make a program which allows a user to enter an input for a time interval for example i ask a question and sets the input to be entered within 10 seconds...
