C++ :: Simple Multiplication And Division Not Evaluating Correctly

May 29, 2013

At one point in my C++, non-CLR program, the following code:

Code:

unsigned int size = 3;
float maxX = (float)(int(size-1))/2.0f;
std::cout << maxX;

outputs 107. Is it something about a conversion from unsigned int to float?

C++ ::  Visual Studio 2012 - How To Get Remainder From A Very Simple Division

Apr 10, 2013

So I am using Visual Studio 2012 Professional, this is C++ code. I am just trying to get the remainder from a very simple division. Nothing difficult, heres the code:

double getProbability(){
int rd = random();
int max = numeric_limits<int>::max();
double result = rd % max;
cout << "Probability: " << result << "
";
return result;
}

When I look at the values in debug I get:

max 2147483647
rd 1804289383
result 1804289383.0000000

That is completely wrong. The answer should be 0.840188. What is going on here?

random() just returns a number from a vector that was prepopulated with "random" integers. Not really random, but that isn't all that important. What is important is why on earth is a % operation returning such a huge number. I assigned the values to variables so I could look at them in the debugger. I know I am going to probably get a thousand different ways that I could do this "better" but again, that isn't what I am looking for. I would just like to know why the % operation is doing what it is doing?

C/C++ :: Integer Division As Opposed To Real Division?

Sep 28, 2013

I have the following details
double x= 1.5
double y= -1.5
int m= 20
int n= 4

my question is 5 * x - n / 5 at which what would n / 5 equal to, I think its zero since its integer division? or would the 5 be considered a real number?

C++ :: Evaluating Logical Boolean Expressions

Jan 10, 2013

I am looking for a library to aid me in evaluating Boolean expressions. For example, i have an expression like this:

(1*(5+3)+9*65/5-(354*4565*5643+98) >= 12345) && ( 654*987+123 || (2345 > 23423 && 1 != 2)))

(It can also be much longer!) and would like to evaluate them to a true/false boolean.

There are tons of libraries to calculate the (numerical) result of a mathematical expression, but this is not what i want to do.

C++ :: Implement Program For Evaluating Infix Expressions

Dec 3, 2014

Also, can't use namespace std for this.

#include<iostream>
#include<stack>
#include<fstream>
#include<iomanip>
#include<queue>
#include<cassert>

[Code] ....

/* It will read in a infix expression from a text file.check if the parentheses in the input expression are balanced.convert the infix expression into a postfix expression and evaluate the expression.*/

int main() {
string expression;
string postfixExpression;
double result;
testBalanced();

C/C++ :: Infix To Postfix Conversion And Evaluating Expression

Apr 12, 2015

I am trying to convert from infix to postfix, and then evaluating the postfix expression to get the final answer. I am having a severe problem though, because for somereason the conversion is not working at all. For example, when I input the first infix expression:

24 + 33 * ( 7 - 5 ) + 8 / 3 it ouputs 24 33 7 5 - 5 ) + 8 / 3( 7 - 5 ) + 8 / 3* ( 7 - 5 ) + 8 / 3+ 33 * ( 7 - 5 ) + 8 / 3 8 3/ 3+ 8 / 3

Which is obviously very wrong. I am not really sure where the problem is though.

Below I have included all of the code needed. I also had to create my own stack class, so I will include it too .

#include "stacks.h"
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
bool IsOperand(char C) {
if(C >= '0' && C <= '9') return true;
if(C >= 'a' && C <= 'z') return true;

C++ :: Evaluating Arithmetic Expressions Using Recursive Descent Parser?

Feb 25, 2013

I have the following code to calculate arithmetic expressions :

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
using namespace std;
const char * expressionToParse = "6.5-2.5*10/5+2*5";
char peek(){
return *expressionToParse;

[code]....

The problem is that it does not work properly with decimal numbers for example it evaluates 6-2*10/5+2*5 = 12 which is correct but for 6.5-2.5*10/5+2*5 it returns 6 instead of 11.5 .

No matter what I input for the values of 'Start', 'End' and 'Interval', the value of 'SizeL' always seems to be -2.

C :: How To Find A Remainder Of A Division

Jun 11, 2013

I want to find the remainder of the division between a and b, but without using the reminder operator a%b.I thought to subtract b from a as long as a>b, that will give the remainder, but I don't know how to write it in code.

C++ :: Operation With Big Numbers (remainder Of Division)

Apr 22, 2014

I have to build a program that calculates the remainder of the expression

(2^10)!/((2^10-500)! * 500!)

when divided by 10^9+7

where x^y = x*x*x*x...*x (y times)
and x! = x*(x-1)...*1

How can I do that? I know how to calculate the remainder of x! and the remainder of y!, but I do not know how t calculate the remainder of x!/y!. I can´t even store this in a variable because x! is very large.

C++ :: Program That Inputs A File / Performs Binary Division And Outputs Remainder

Sep 30, 2013

For class I need to write a program that inputs a file (the dividend), performs binary division on the file (using 0x12 as the divisor), and outputs the remainder(checksum).

I have researched binary division algorithms and I get the general gist, but I'm still unsure where to start. How would I store the dividend and divisor? As two arrays of bits?

Then, I need to figure out how to perform shifts and XORs on the the binary numbers. Maybe I should use bitwise operations?

C++ :: Program That Takes Baseball Players Statistics And Display Averages - Function Division

Oct 10, 2013

I was required to write a program that takes a baseball players statistics and displays there averages. I was required to make 3 function in the file to perform this tasks. my problem I am having a division problem in the SLG function. My compiler does not require the system ("PAUSE"); command.

OUTPUT
The player's batting average is: 0.347
The player's on-base percentage is: 0.375
The player's slugging percentage is:
(test)AB = 101
(test)Tot Base = 58
0.000

Code:
/* Batting Average Program
file: batavg1CPP.cpp
Glossary of abbreviations:
BA = batting average
PA = plate appearances
H = hits
BB = bases on balls (walks)

C :: How To Typecast Correctly

Feb 17, 2015

so i have this problem with my code ( not running)i want to read ( 2 double numbers x,y) and ( one integer z) then calculate reminder of x and y ( after they both converted to integer) and the formula : x^2 + y^2 + z^2and : x^z + y^z

here is what i came up with :

Code:
// compute.c

#include<stdio.h>
#include<math.h>
int main(void)
{

[Code]....

it also says in q : be sure to test the user input to make sure x,y,z are positive . any negative or zero should not be accepted and must print error msg ==> do i have to have an if statement here ? or the while loop is enough ?
