C++ :: Pointer Function - Getting Information Back To Main

Feb 6, 2014

I am trying to make a information to pointer function but the problem is how/what number am i putting in for *a...

And can i get that information back to main? and is that right way to split the array in to ? because i have will 200 random number and I need to find the smallest and second smallest element in array.

two_smallest (print, size3,size3,size3,size3);
} void two_smallest (int find_array[] , int size3, int *a, int *a2, int *b,int *b2) {
for (int index = 0; index <= 100; index ++) {
if (find_array[index] < find_array [0]) {
find_array[0] = find_array [index];
*a = find_array[0];

[Code] ....

C/C++ :: Converting Int To Double Pointer Outside Main Function

Dec 22, 2014

I have int pointer called p and i want to calculate average.Since average involves using double or float so i am trying to convert this in the function averagetemp. It still gives me an error saying "cannot be converted"...

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int* createArray(int n);
int lowesttemp(int *p,int f);
int highesttemp(int *p,int f);
double averagetemp(int *k,double f);
void print(int *p,int lowest_temp,int highesttemp,int average_temp);

C/C++ :: Assigning Pointer (int) Located In Main With Another Function

I have the following:

int Elements = 25;
// this works just fine - as expected.
Pointer = (int *) malloc(Elements, sizeof(int));

C :: File Opened In Main And Passing Pointer To A Function

Sep 14, 2013

I am getting a few compile errors for what might be a simple thing to do. I am opening a file in main, passing that pointer to a function and checking the contents of that file with a regex before I pass it on to build a BST. I am getting the following compile errors, what is wrong. Here are the errors:

Code:
gcc main.c fileCheck.c -o tree
main.c: In function `fileCheck':
main.c:19: error: syntax error before "FILE"
fileCheck.c: In function `fileCheck':

[Code] .....

Fatal error: Command failed for target `tree' Here is the two files and header that seem to be causing me the problems.

main.c

Code:
#include "main.h"
//#include "node.h"
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
FILE *fp;
if (argc > 2)

[Code] ....

And the header file.
main.h

Code:
#ifndef MAIN_H
#define MAIN_H
#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C" {
#endif

C++ :: Pointer Usage To Base Class Object In Vector Int Main Function

Aug 12, 2013

I know what are pointer's and how to use them but there is one point i am not able to understand. Below is the example code

I understand everything in the below code except 1 thing why i am using pointer to base class object in vector int the main() Function?

Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <sstream>
#include <string>
#include <vector>
using namespace std;
// base class

[Code] ...

Here is the lines of code i want to understand.

Code:
vector<Employee*> employees;
employees.push_back(&emp1);
employees.push_back(&mgr1);

I know if i will not use the pointer base class function "virtual double grossPay" will be called for both base class object and derived class object and when i will use pointer with reference to the object because base class function is virtual it will look for same function in derived class and if available it will execute it.

C++ :: Main Difference Between Pointer And Reference And How To Use Pointers

Mar 9, 2013

i'm still unclear between the difference between using pointer and a reference

I understood the concept of pointers in c in the class i took last year

and that was to change the actual value stored in the memory address Code:

void change_a(int a*){
a=6;
}
int main(){
int a=5;
change_a(&a);
}

but in c++ I've been using references in all my assignments because I don't know how to correctly use pointers in c++ I may have missed a class but I'm on spring break and would like to clear things up

so in c++

in my assignments I would call it like this Code:

void change_a(int &a){
a=6;
}
int main(){
int a=5;
change_a(a);
}

so does this change the value in the address or does it make another copy of a in my c++ code and stores 6 in that copy

C :: How To Loop Back To The Beginning Of Function

Oct 11, 2014

I am writing another program and I cannot find for the life of me how to loop the program back to the start of a function.

Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main(void) {
int choice;
char band1, band2, band3, band4;
printf ("This program calculates the resistor value based on the colours of the wire.
(enter the integer near the command)
");
printf ("What would you like to do?

[Code].....

This is my current iteration of the program. Obviously, I haven't finished writing the case 1 of the first switch, but for the other ones. I thought that return main would cause the program to loop back to the beginning after executing the case, but I see that it is not the case (pun not intended). Anyways, what would I have to insert to cause the program to loop again (other than for case 3)? And another question, why is it that in scanf in the first case, the program only accepts two characters before finishing?

C :: Function Not Sending Back Values

#include<stdio.h>

#include<time.h>

C++ :: Keyboard Function That Is Called In Main Function To Make Shape Move

Jan 19, 2013

Ok so I am working on a game and I'm in the process of developing my Player class. Anyways, what I have is a keyboard function that is called in my main function to make a shape move.

void myKeyboardFunction(unsigned char key, int x, int y) {
switch ( key ) {

[Code].....

But when I try to call it, trying to copy my previous method,

glutKeyboardFunc(Player1.playerControls);

I get an error

error C3867: 'Player::playerControls': function call missing argument list; use '&Player::playerControls' to create a pointer to member

I get an error saying it can't convert parameters. I would just like to understand why the arguments become a problem when I make the function a member of my class, when the first method I used is so easy.

C :: Calling Function Via Function Pointer Inside Structure Pointer

Mar 14, 2013

I'm trying to call a function via a function pointer, and this function pointer is inside a structure. The structure is being referenced via a structure pointer.

Code:

position = hash->(*funcHash)(idNmbr);

The function will return an int, which is what position is a type of. When I compile this code,

I get the error: error: expected identifier before ( token.

Is my syntax wrong? I'm not sure what would be throwing this error.

C :: Main Function Does Not Return Any Values When Calling Other Function?

Jun 9, 2013

The function is supposed to return value from the file in my main, but I am getting empty value. I am trying to get better with pointer. Right now just teaching myself.

right now the only way for this code to show value is when in put the putchar(*ps) inside my readfile function. I would like to readfile to return value and print in the main function.

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
char *readfile(char filename[]);
int main(int argc, char *argv[] ) {

C++ :: Function With 3 Arguments - Bring Back New Number Generated With Replacement

Oct 26, 2014

Write a function that takes 3 arguments. The function has to bring back a new number that has been generated with the replacement of the figure that is on a given position in the number with a figure that is been transferred as an argument(have in mind that the position of the figure is being counted from right to left,starting from one). Write a main program in which the newly formed numbers will be printed for numbers of a range written by the user.

Example: if you wrote the numbers 2276,3 and 5 the function should bring back the number 2576

If you didn't understand the text, the example shows that in the number 2276, the number has been counted from right to left by the second argument "3" and in the place of the figure "2" has been put the figure "5".

This is where I got stuck, I can't figure out how to make the replacement.

int argument(int x,int y,int z) {
return 0;
} int main() {
int a,b,c;
printf("Enter a value for a(100-999):");
scanf("%d",&a);

C++ :: Possible To Change Value Of Variable In Main Using A Function?

Jan 30, 2014

I'm currently writing a poker game and am trying my best to avoid using global variables. I have a few variables in int main() which i was hoping to use to store the value of each players hand. I then created a function which calculates the value of the hand but cannot get this value back into the main function.

For example:

Code:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
void getValue(int value) {
value = 4;

[Code] ....

Is there any way i can get the value of value using this function? If not what can I do?
