I am trying to create a word counter program that asks for the price per letter and then asks for the sentence they are writing. The app should then calculate the number of letters and give the total cost similar to:
You have 40 letters at $3.45 per letter, and your total is $138.00.
Everything compiles fine but when I run it the inputs don't work and it outputs:
You have -1 per letter, and your total cost is $-0.
i have only recently got into programming. i have this homework assignment that is frying my brains, the program needs to take a number from the user and give the 'reduced' sum. for example: if the user enters 888 then the sum should be: 6. it takes the number and adds its digits im just looking for a direction to where my problem is
#include "iostream.h" int reduction (int number) { return number/10+number%10; } int main() { int number,loopcount; cout<< "please enter a number"<<endl; cin>>number;
#include <iostream> #include <stdlib.h> //used for random numbers #include <time.h> #include <string> using namespace std; int main() { int bridgeWidth ; //set bridge width to any number
How do I error check if the user is inputting letters and not numbers? For example, if the user inputs "Lab.txt" I need to display an error message. If they input "Lab2part2.txt" then this is correct and what I want.
I've found a lot of information online on how to error check for numbers or a single letter (EX: 1,2,3, etc. or 'A' 'B' 'C') but nothing for actual WORDS or maybe I should refer to it as a string of characters?
Is there any way to do this? Because my program requires I ask the user to input the name of the file. But the way my code is currently set up is even when the user inputs the wrong file name it still opens the file. I want to prevent this from happening so my thought was to error check user input.
/*Program to determine company's weekly payroll*/
#include <iostream> #include <string> #include <fstream> using namespace std; void OpenTheFile() { ifstream inputFile; string filename; char letter; int number;
I want to program a program that produces a random number between 1-10, then if the number is correct, says like HEY GOOD JOB and if its not says try AGAIN! also, at any point the user can quit by typing in X.
I know that I can use stuff like cout << "Hey put in a guess now" to prompt the user but I dont know how to accept inputs.
For example, how do I use scanf to do this?
I know that if I use scanf, it takes in a value, but where the heck does it store it?
eg. scanf(%s,guess);
Is that valid? I get an invalid expression error when trying to use that in C++.
I am fairly new to C++ and I am trying to write a code that determines whether a number which the user inputs is prime or not. I have the code, but when I run it all it actually does is report odd numbers as prime and even numbers as not prime.
#include <iostream> using namespace std; //declaring variables// int i; int num;
The basic idea of this exercise is to generate words from a user-input, seven-digit number(a phone number). The code runs, but for some reason, I can't get it to print the numbers into the file.
Code: /*Write a program that will generate a word based on a randomly generated, seven-digit number. there should be 2187 possible words. Avoid "phone numbers" that begin with 0 or 1*/
#include<stdio.h> #define PHONE 7 void wordGenerator(int number[]); void wordGenerator(int number[]) { //loop counters for each digit in the number
I was told to use a round function to round a number to give an integer number that is closer to the real value. (for example if the number is 114.67 I need to print an int value of 115 instead of 114)
I am not exactly sure how a round function works, but I am told to include math.h library. What I try doesn't seem to work.
I am in the process of writing a program that will give the appropriate color code for a resistor after the user enters an integer value for the resistance needed and selects the tolerance form a list. My question is this: Is there a way to allow the user to enter a value such as 75000 and C++ use each digit separately, as if they entered 7 [enter], 5[enter], 0 [eneter]... and so on? But, then use the entire value as an integer too? Also, it should read a value such as: 45835, as 45000, or 1843 as 1800.
All my code is good, except the functions: findMacLoc and findMinLoc .They don't give me the correct array location of the max/min number in the array.I know is something simple I need to tweak in those two functions.
#include <iostream> #include <time.h> using namespace std; void printArray(int a [], int & size) { int i; for (i = 0; i < size; i++) cout << a[i] << " ";
I want to have calculations take place inside a switch statement that calls the appropriate function. The menu portion of the program works well, but I can't figure out how to let the user actually input 2 different numbers to the functions. My questions are:
1. If I use scanf to assign values to the variables, what determines end of input to each variable? (ie.. scanf("%d%d", &a, &b) what is the end of a, what is the end of b?)
2. Should I assign the variables to user input inside the switch, or try to do it in the functions below?
3. Is there something I haven't thought to ask that will screw me over? I'm really new to this.
Code: #include<stdio.h> int add(int b, int a); int mult(int b, int a); main() {
[Code] ....
This really was a test of multilayer menu, but I want to add functionality if I can.
Changed a variable before posting and didn't change all the conditions testing it.
On my program I use a counter to count to 10, then i ask for a string, in this case "yes" or "no", during the count, i want to keep the user from putting inputs in, due to the fact that if they put both "yes" and "no" before the program reads the string.
I have a project that requires I take user input from menu options and put it into an array which I will average out. I can set the menu up I think, but I cannot understand how to put what the user inputs into an array. Granted I just took the lecture on arrays today. Also we can only use functions to do the work.
How to get user inputs into an array. I have to get 10 user inputs into the array and I'm trying to use a loop but once I run it it crashes whenever you input the first value. This is my absolute first time working with arrays and I've been trying to do research
#include <stdio.h> #define SIZE 10 void Input(const int array1[]); void Calculations(int array1[], int average); void Output(int array1[], int average);
I'm getting an error message that I can't seem to fix. The error clearly states that during the link aspect of the debugging and build there is an error that says that the stdio.h file is either missing, invalid or corrupt. When I try to program using any of the other headers I'm getting the same error. The files are there I can see them in the include folder, so I'm asking what can I do to fix all these headers and beware I am a beginner at programming and using any kind of compiler.
This is the error I receive. 1>------ Build started: Project: hello, Configuration: Debug Win32 ------ 1>LINK : fatal error LNK1123: failure during conversion to COFF: file invalid or corrupt ========== Build: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 0 up-to-date, 0 skipped =========
This is the compiler I am required to use for an online course and all instruction is given for the Microsoft visual 2010 express edition. Also the only file I think that's being referenced is the #include <stdio.h>.
I have recently looked into a self created project where I wanted to compare user input against a list of strings in an external file. That has since been completed to my great satisfaction, however it did throw up some interesting issues in my knowledge and understanding of user input..What is the best way to pick up user input i.e scanf,stdin etc. and when should either be used and can a mixture of types be used, and if so, when and why.
A quick program to take different input methods and display differnt output method (obviously corresponding i.e scanf/printf - fgets/fputs)
My first pothole came when I have setup the method for scanf - fine. Then I setup the method for fgets(test,100,stdin) for example and the fgets method no longer picks up stdin from the user..
How to calculate the values between numbers that a user types in.
Write a function which takes two parameter of integer type and both parameters are positive integer. These number should be provided by the user of your program. The first parameter is lower than the second parameter. You function should be able to calculate the sum of the square of each of the numbers between the two inputs and should display that. Please write a main function to display the working of your function. Call the function at least three times by using some loop in the main function.
