C :: Magic Letter For Making A Constant Number Be Int?

Sep 26, 2014

For example if I have typed 0xFF (a literal hex number that represents the value 255 for Unsigned Char or -1 for Signed Char) in part of my program. That 0xFF is treated as a Char not an Int, because the value is within the range supported by Char, the C compiler always tries to use the smallest datatype possible for the number that is needed for a literal value like this.

Unfortunately because Signed Char is the default Char type, 0xFF is translated into -1. I am wanting to use it to represent 255. So I'm trying to tell the compiler that 0xFF should be interpreted as either an Int or an Unsigned Char. How do I do this?

I already tried typing it with the magic letter "I", like this: 0xFFI

But that didn't work. What is the correct way to do this?

C++ :: PPM Image File Magic Number And Max Color Value

Feb 28, 2015

When reading a PPM Image file, how would I find the magic number and the max color value?

int main() {
string imageFileName;
ifstream image;

imageFileName = "C:UsersDesktopdrink.ppm";
image.open(imageFileName.c_str(), ifstream::binary);

[Code] ....

The code gives me seemingly logical integer values for size, width and height. But how would I find the max color value and so called "magic number" for this PPM image file?

C :: How To Initialize A Variable That Is Not A Letter Or Number

Feb 25, 2014

In C how can I initialize a variable that is not a letter or number? For example with a number I can :

Code:

int i = 5;
for ( i = 0; i <=5; i++ );
printf( "%d", i ) This would display a row of 5's

but what if I wanted to display a row of -----? What I am trying to do is read in a simple txt file, around the file I want ----1----2-----3 ect ect on the top ----a----b-----c down the side Then I want to be able to change the file at lets say position c2 and save it. This is the early stages of my attempt to set up a editable table.

C++ :: Program To Calculate A Grade Letter Into Number?

Feb 7, 2013

So I have to write a program to calculate a grade letter into a number.

Letter grades are A, B, C, D, and F, possibly followed by + or –. Their numeric values are 4, 3, 2, 1, and 0. There is no F+ or F–. A + increases the numeric value by 0.3, a – decreases it by 0.3. If the letter grade is illegal (such as "Z"), then your output should be "INVALID LETTER GRADE"; If the combination is illegal (such as "A+" or "F-") then your output should be "INVALID GRADE COMBINATION"

Also the code should look like this
Enter your letter grade: C+
Grade value is [2.3]

// Input
cout << "Enter your letter grade: ";
string s;
cin >> s;

[Code].....

C++ :: Crypt Arithmetic Puzzle - Replace Each Letter As S Number

Oct 28, 2013

Dont know how to replace each letter as s number ... this is the question i was given ...

In cryptarithmetic puzzles, mathematical equations are written using letters. Each letter can be a digit from 0 to 9, but no two letters can be the same. Here is a sample problem:

SEND + MORE = MONEY

A solution to the puzzle is S = 9, R = 8, O = 0, M = 1, Y = 2, E = 5, N = 6, D = 7.

Write a program that finds a solution to the cryptarithmetic puzzle of the following:

TOO + TOO + TOO + TOO = GOOD

The simplest technique is to use a nested loop for each unique letter (in this case T, O, G, D). The loops would systematically assign the digits from 0 to 9 to each letter. For example, it might first try T=0,O=0,G=0,D=0, thenT=0,O=0, G = 0, D = 1, then T = 0, O = 0, G = 0, D = 2, etc., up to T = 9, O = 9, G = 9, D = 9. In the loop body, test that each variable is unique and that the equation is satisfied. Output the values for the letters that satisfy the equation.

C Sharp :: Assign A Specific Number To Each Letter In A Sentence?

Feb 14, 2014

I have a string - a whole sentence that I want to assign a number to each letter, space, comma and period etc. So all "A's" will have the same number, all "B's" will have another number etc. I don't want to use the ASCII numbers because they all need to be sequential and some of the punctuation isn't. I have put the string into a char array to separate each character out and was thinking about running it through a loop with if statements for each letter and assigning numbers there and then saving the numbers in the order they appear into a list as a string but I keep coming up with errors so I don't know how to do it or if there is a better way to accomplish what I'm trying to do.

C# :: Creating A Magic Square

Feb 5, 2015

My university assignment requires us to create a magic square. The definition of which can be found on Wikipedia and such, but essentially it's a (n) times (n) grid where all the row, column and diagonal totals meet the formula [n(n2 + 1)]/2. So a 3x3 would provide totals of 15 for example.

It's been requested that we use brute force for this, nothing mathematically fancy. I've succeeded in the task and initially during testing was coming up with a result of a 3x3 magic square after between 10 million and 1 billion attempts over a few minutes to nearly an hour.

I proceeded to refine my code and have as little as possible in the while loop which I'd break out of once the function had found a magic square, nothing really made much difference until I moved the declaration of my random to just before my while loop instead of within.

Random RanGenerator = new Random();

Once I'd done this I was getting 3x3 magic squares after a few thousand iterations in less than a second, which has completely baffled me. I can understand if it would save time, but how could that reduce the amount of attempts required to solve the magic square?

C++ :: Magic Pairs - Integer Numbers

Dec 10, 2013

Alexandra has some distinct integer numbers a1,a2...an.

Count number of pairs (i,j) such that:
1≤ i ≤ n
1≤ j ≤ n
ai < aj

Input

The first line of the input contains an integer T denoting the number of test cases. The description of T test cases follows. The first line of each test case contains a single integer n denoting the number of numbers Alexandra has. The second line contains n space-separated distinct integers a1, a2, ..., an denoting these numbers.

Output

For each test case, output a single line containing number of pairs for corresponding test case.

Constraints

1 ≤ T ≤ 4
1 ≤ n ≤ 100000
0 ≤ ai ≤ 109
All the ai are distinct

Example

2
2
2 1
3
3 1 2

Output:
1
3

Explanation

Case 1: Only one such pair: (2,1)
Case 2: 3 possible pairs: (2,1), (2,3), (3,1)

as I understand the problem is just counting how many Ai's are 1 <= Ai <= N and then apply ((R*(R-1))/2), R is the count of valid Ai's

My actual code is

#include <stdio.h>
using namespace std;
#ifndef ONLINE_JUDGE
#define getNumber getchar()
#define getString getchar()

C/C++ :: 3x3 Magic Square That Sums Up To 15 On All Sides

Mar 10, 2015

I have an assignment that I have to make a 3x3 magic square that sums up to 15 on all sides. I can't use arrays, just Loops and If and Else statements.

My first attempt was like this

//Program for printing magic square that sums up to 15.

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main() {
int a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i;
int r1, r2, r3;
int c1, c2, c3;

[Code] .....

I can't think of a way to loop that when it prints out, it will have a sum of 15 on all sides and/or print one of the 8 solution for a 3x3 magic square.

C# :: Creating Normal Magic Squares

Jan 13, 2014

I have been asked to develop a program with 6 methods which I have presented below. The aim of the program is to find and generate a magic square with a given dimension. This is a console program and so the 'Main' is also provided. However, I am having a problem with my code. When ever I try to generate a magic square it continuously cycles through 'forever' and I have never yet got a magic square; no matter what dimension I enter.

I must use methods 'CreateRandomlyAssignedArray' and 'CheckSquareMatrix'. There is another method 'SearchForValue', which we were told to creat. How this can be useful.

I have provided my code below:

class Program {
static Random rand = new Random();
static void Main(string[] args) {
int[,] array = new int[5,5];
array = GenerateMagicSquare(5);

C :: Convert A Number Grade To A Letter Grade

Feb 24, 2013

i'm having trouble with my c programming assignment. i'm trying to convert a number grade to a letter grade. I'm trying to Write a function (called: numToLetter) that takes as input a number from 0 to 100 and returns a character ( a single character ), based on the following: if the number is between 60 and 70 return Dif the number is greater than 90 return Aif the number is between 70 and 80 return Cif the number is between 0 and 60 return Fif the number is between 80 and 90, return B and i need to use the return statements to call the function like for example:

if (a > 90) return ('A');
elseif (a > 80)
return ('B');
elseif (a > 70)
return ('C'); else
return ('F');

how do if write my code with this function?

i`m currently racking my brains out over this issue. How do i go about the x as the first occurrence of the letter?

lets say helxo , x is the 2nd occurrence of l. I will want to change back x into l

i have replaced it with x in the earlier step with this code...

string everySecondChar(const string &s,char source,char distance)
{
string t(s);
for(std::string::size_type even =0,pos=t.find(source,0);pos!=std::string::npos;pos=t.find(source,++pos))
{

i would like to reverse the process now, letting x becoming l again!
