C++ :: Passing Variables Into A Function

Mar 29, 2014

ok I have a class Player with lots of variables and im gonna call a function to checkXp, if I call it with the whole player object does it use a lot more memory then if I just passed the couple things I need?

ex
checkXP(Player* play) // this is a whole object of player
or
checkXP(play->getXP(), play->getLVL()) // the variables I want.

I just realized I may not be able to modify anything from player in the checkXP() function

question 1: does passing the whole object use more memory
question 2: if I passed as just the variables I need, I wont be able to modify anything of object play?

C++ :: Variables Not Passing Correctly

C++ :: Passing Variables Between Functions

Jan 29, 2013

I need passing some variables between functions. Here is the first part of the code which does work.

#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
struct CarType {
string maker;

[Code] ....

Now the book says to take the following program and add a member function to the CarType class which prints the values of all of its data members. Add two more data members which are relevant for cars. Add the use of these data members to the program (to the assignment statements for MyCar, to the operator prompt and input inside the getYourCar function, and to the print function you have created).

Here is my code. Whenever I run it, it takes my assigned variables in MyCar and prints those instead of the one which the user is inputting.

#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
using namespace std;
struct CarType {
string maker;

C++ :: Passing Array Of Variables By Reference?

Sep 10, 2014

I define an integer variable and pass it by reference to a function.

int func(int &x)
{
// do something
}
int x;
func(x);

However, I have not only one variable but an array of variables with its predefined name. How do I pass to the function by using loop? Example:

int x, y, z;
func(x);
func(y);
func(z);

How can I do this by using loop?

Visual C++ :: Passing DDX Control Variables Between Dialogs (Parent->Child)

Jul 19, 2013

I have a main dialog which has (DDX?) controls for the user. eg a slider, and a combo box.

Previously, an image adjusted by these controls was in the same dialog.

I need to put this image in a New, separate dialog but it still must be controlled by the slider and combo box on the main dialog.

My question is how can I pass the control's variables between the dialogs? I have, say,

Code:
//MainDlg.cpp
DDX_Control(pDX, IDC_ComboBrightness, m_Brightness
I was told that I could do something like:

Code:
//ImageDlg.h
public:
ImageDlg(CWnd* pParent = NULL, CComboBox m_Brightness); // standard constructor

But I get errors including: Missing default parameter for parameter 2

I also need to pass the image array, is that perhaps the same method?

C/C++ :: Using X And Y Variables In Function Parameters?

Jan 24, 2015

In my program I created three separate return functions. Each function is labeled:

int boxes(int x, int y);
int leftOver(int x, int y);
double avgItemsShipped(int x, int y, int z);

Is it bad programming practice to use 'x' and 'y' in all of my functions? Should I use the this keyword inside the function? We use this often in my Java class and I know it exists in C++, but I haven't actually seen it used (or used it myself yet).

C++ :: Passing Function As Argument To Other Function?

Jul 3, 2013

I am trying to pass function as argument to another function. My idea is to write function that can works with any type of array, and for it to be able to compare array items I'd like to use my own compareTo function. But I need to be able to pass function to use for comparing argument.

To say it short I am trying to write my own qsort that would take compareTo as one argument just like original qsort does.

Here is my code

// test.cpp : Defines the entry point for the console application.
//
#include "stdafx.h"
#include <windows.h>
template <class T>
int compareTo( T a,T b){

[code]....

C++ :: Using Pointers Instead Of Reference Variables In Function

Mar 26, 2013

The following function uses reference variables as parameters. Rewrite the function so it uses pointers instead of reference variables, and then demonstrate the function in a complete program.

int doSomething(int &x, int &y)
{
int temp =x;
x = y * 10;
y = temp * 10;
return x + y;
}

I understand how to covert the reference variables to pointers, however I am stuck on this error. Either I get the error listed in the title or (with a few changes) the error "invalid conversion from 'int' to 'int*'"

What am I doing incorrectly?

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int doSomething(int*, int*);

int main(){
int X, Y, result;

[Code] ....

I have multiplied both x and y by 10 and then added them together!

Here is the result " //I really didn't know how else to use the "doSomething" function in a meaningful way. So... I just stated what the function does.

<< result << ".
";
system("PAUSE");
return 0;
}
int doSomthing(int *x, int *y)

C++ :: Returning Two Separate Variables In A Function?

Dec 12, 2013

How to use a function twice to calculate two different variables. How to have a function compute the city tax, then it uses the function a second time to compute the county tax.

My program compiles, and runs fine, however it only outputs the city tax calculation. It seems it never attempts to calculate the county tax.

One thing: All of the directives I used is what we are limited to, no more, no less. He requires a set format and will dock points of you use anything but those directives and void main().

Here is my code so far:

/* function for city tax calculation */

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
#include <string>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <cmath>
#include <iomanip>
const double city_tax_rate=0.03;

C :: Functions To Prove Variables Not Changing By Another Function

Jul 8, 2013

It is said that variables in a function cannot be changed by another function. Only by using pointers can variable values be changed. I am writing some functions to try to prove this theory, but I can't get it right.

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main(void){
int x = 10;
printf("default x value is %d ",x);

#include <stdio.h>

C++ :: Read Function - Compare And Assign Variables

Mar 1, 2013

I am developing a program that will read a function (x^2+2x+4 or other function) and then comparing and start assigning variables. My idea is with an array:

int i,x;
char xs;
char function[20];
cin.getline(function, 20);
cout << "Your function is: ";

[Code] .....

Well this is my basically idea, but when the program detect an ^ this will be associate with the exp(x,n); well in general the user enter a function: x^3+3x^2+4x-8 give a value for x for example 3 and the program will convert in -- exp(3,3)+3*exp(3,2)+4*3-8 --, but I don't know how.

C++ :: Passing Argument Into Function

May 21, 2013

How to pass an int that I got from user input into a function to use it. I am trying to print out the words to a string of numbers.

I got the input from user.
I got an absolute value of the input.
I then separate the string into individual digits and name them.
I can print these out.
Then I started my if statement by checking if the original input was zero, and if it is, printing zero and exiting.
Then I an trying to pass the digits into a switch function and this is where I go off the rails.

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <cstdio>

#include <iomanip>
#include <cstdlib>
