C++ :: Multiple Choice Function - Using Character As Parameter

Feb 20, 2012

I have a multiple choice function below that is part of a larger program but I am having trouble having it operate with characters as inputs and arguments. It has to be a character input, but I kinda want it to act like an integer, how do i do that?

Code:
void addition(int *Preward) //function that is called by the users selection {
int random1, random2;
int order;
int one, two, three;
int rando1, rando2;
char a, b, c; // ERROR

C++ :: Randomized Multiple Choice

Feb 20, 2012

I have gotten my code sorted out, and now it works. But to be adaptable to 3pi robots, which I will be loading it into eventually, the user has to be given three letter (a, b, c) multiple choices for answer input to the math questions. The three choices have to be randomized everytime the program loops too. Currently it just runs on number input.

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h>
#include <math.h>
int menu();
void addition(int *Preward); // function to return truth values
void subtraction(int *Preward);

C# :: Multiple Choice Symptom Checker?

Mar 9, 2015

I'm doing a project through college which is a diagnostic and support tool for Windows OS's. The application at the moment has a simple expert system which is a Combobox with strings that relate to common PC problems. Then those strings are put through a switch statement and relevant commands are shown to fix the problem i.e. "My printer is not working" will disable all buttons except for printer management, spooler folder etc.

My supervisor who marks my project has said this isnt good enough and wants a more layered hierarchy approach so he's looking for 3-4 groupboxes with tickboxes inside them and users tick the boxes that relate to their problem which will give the functions to support. The only way I can see to do this at the moment is a massive nested switch statement that is really not worth the time. There are 60+ functions in my program so you can imagine how long the switch would be trying to pick and iterate through all of the possible answers.

I'm just trying to figuire out an easier way to do this, rather than a massive switch statement. Something like WebMD which has 4-5 tick boxes and can give out the same answer for different symptoms.

I've attached a Flow Chart I made of the hierarchy Im trying to go for [URL] .....

C/C++ :: Assigning Variable From Multiple Choice Answer

Oct 29, 2014

I tried to create a multiple choice list and I want to assign the value of the answer option chosen by the user so I can use it later on in the code. Later on in the code i've asked how many people (p) want a drink and multiplied it by the chosen size to calculate the price c = p * n where c is cost, n is price and p is number o of people At the bottom i tried to assign parameters where depending on what option the user has chosen n will be assigned to the chosen value...

C/C++ :: FILE As Parameter To Function

May 17, 2013

void foo(FILE *f1, FILE **f2) {
    fputs("...",  f1);
    fputs("...", *f2);
} int main(void) {
    FILE *fp1 = fopen(...),
         *fp2 = fopen(...);  
    if(fp1 && fp2) {
        foo(fp1, &fp2);
        ...
    }
    ...
}

Forever, I've passed FILE objects into functions like the first parameter; I've never had an issue reading or writing files using that form - no file errors, no compiler warnings, etc. Recently, I saw the second parameter form, and wondered why that was?

I still don't quite get this part of pointers. What's the second parameter form doing differently than the first when the first version *appears* to work as intended??

C++ :: Passing Array Into Function As Parameter

May 2, 2013

Write a program that inputs 10 integers from the console into an array, and removes the duplicate array elements and prints the array. By removing, I mean that you should make it appear as if the elements hadn't been there. You may assume that all the integers are between 0 and 100, Write at least 1 function in addition to the main function, and pass an array into that function as a parameter. e.g.

Please enter your 10 numbers: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 The array contains: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

Please enter your 10 numbers: 1 1 3 3 3 6 7 8 9 9 The array contains: 1 3 6 7 8 9

Please enter your 10 numbers: 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 The array contains: 1

The bolded area is where I'm having trouble. How I can go about doing this, passing an array into the function as a parameter?

Here is my code:

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main () {
const int MAX = 10;
int a[MAX] = {0};
int i;

C++ :: Passing A Function As Template Parameter

Dec 26, 2013

Pseudocode:
template<typename T /*, some parameter for member_function */>
class Foo {
public:
void someFunction() {
T t;
t.member_fuction(...);
} }

I'm trying to make the call to T::member_function a templated value because member_function might vary by name in my scenario. Since std::mem_fn isn't a 'type', i can't do something like Foo<std::string, std::mem_fn(&std::string::clear)> foo;

I also want to take into account that member_function might have more than one parameter. That is, the first parameter will always be something known but there might be other defaulted parameters.

The only thing I can think of is to make a proxy structure, something like this:

template<typename T, T> struct proxy;
template<typename T, typename R, typename... Args, R (T::*member_function)(Args...)>
struct proxy<R (T::*)(Args...), member_function> {
R operator()(T &obj, Args.. args) {
return (obj.*member_function)(std::forward<Args>(args)...);
} }

Which would then allow me to do (for example) this:

Foo<std::string, proxy<void(std::string::*)(), &std::string::clear> >

when Foo is implemented like this:

template<typename T, typename member_function>
class Foo {
public:
void someFunction() {
T t;
member_function()(t);
} };

That implementation works for me.

C++ :: Using Initializer List As Function Parameter

C++ :: Array Into Function As Parameter Pass

May 2, 2013

I have been working on this all day, and its due in like an hour and a half. I have done everything the program wants except the last part. Here is the assignment:

Write a program that inputs 10 integers from the console into an array, and removes the duplicate array elements and prints the array. You may assume that all the integers are between 0 and 100, Write at least 1 function in addition to the main function, and pass an array into that function as a parameter. e.g.

Please enter your 10 numbers: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
The array contains: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

Please enter your 10 numbers: 1 1 3 3 3 6 7 8 9 9
The array contains: 1 3 6 7 8 9

Please enter your 10 numbers: 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1
The array contains: 1

The bolded part is what I cant get to work. I have tried this and it keeps telling me I have not identified the items when I have.

C++ :: How To Pass A Void Function As Parameter

How can I pass a function as a parameter? I have a class that I'm trying to reuse and one of the methods in this class need to take three parameters, two ints and a function. In other words I want to be able to call a custom function every time this method is invoked when used in other classes. The function I want to call will not return any values, its a void function.

C :: Function That Gets As Parameter File And Folder Path

Oct 18, 2014

I'm writing a small function that gets as parameter a file's path and a folder's path, and copies the given file to that folder.

Code:
int copy_file(const char* source, const char* folder) {
char copy[PATH_MAX];
strcpy(copy, folder);
strcat(copy, "/");
strcat(copy, source);

[Code] ....

Basically, this function purpose is to make a backup of source in folder every X minutes (depending on user's input).

The problem is the second call to open():

This call attempts to open the file for writing, and creates it if it is not already exist.

It also truncates it before writing to it - and that's my concern:

Let's say this is the second time this function runs, so copy is already exist. open() will then truncate it, and then one of the system calls in the while loop fails.

In this situation, I might be left with no backup file.

The problem also arises for when source is a read-only file:

If source is a read-only file, and copy is not already exist (meaning - it's the first backup attempt), then everything's fine, but, if source is a read-only file and copy is already exist, then I have to first remove copy altogather, and make a fresh copy of source.

Making a backup with new name for copy every time copy_file() runs, will solve this problem, and how can this be accomplished?

I should say that I'd really prefer that copy and source will have the same names when copy_file() returns...
