C++ :: Age Is Int Variable And Name Is A String - User Input

Jun 18, 2013

I have a problem that states: age is an int variable and name is a string.

What are the values of age and name after the following input statements execute.

cin << age;
getline(cin, name);

if the input is:

a. 23 Lance Grant

b. 23 Lance Grant

Ok I have been fooling around with this book all day. My instructer wants us to build the program instead of just saying

a = 23 Lance Grant

How to input B. I mean when I write the program I do not know how to ask for two lines for one input.

C :: User Input Variable To Global Array

Oct 11, 2013

I am trying to create a global array with user-defined dimensions.the code is:

Code:

int matr_size()
{
int x = 0;
printf("Please enter the number of nodes: ");
scanf( "%d", &x);
printf("There are %d nodes in this simulation.", x);
getchar();
return x;
}

[code]....

I read that an array cannot be defined by a variable in C so I assume that is the issue, but I'm not sure how else to do it. Previously the size was defined by #define NODES and it worked fine but I need this user input.

C :: How To Simply Input CSV File Into Universal Variable 2D Array

Mar 6, 2015

I am working in an assignment and part of this assignment is to input a CSV file with floats such as this:

8.5, 10.5, 90.5
49.5, 99 ,97
88, 70, 100
78, 2, 10

into an universal variable array.I just want to figure out a way to simply input the CSV file into a 2D variable array.The values in the array will be later use in functions that I'm trying to figure out but I can't do that until I store these values in the array. I think is just a matter of figuring out how to tell fscanf to ommit spaces and commas, but I don't know how. This is what I have done

Code:
#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
#include<math.h>
float grades[1001][101];
int main(int argc, char* argv[]){

[Code] ....

The output is this

Assignment 1 of student 1 = 8.5 Assignment 2 of student 1 = 10.5 Assignment 3 of student 1 = 0.0 Assignment 1 of student 2 = 90.5

I think I'm close to solve it but something is missing the output should look like this

Assignment 1 of student 1 = 8.5 Assignment 2 of student 1 = 10.5 Assignment 3 of student 1 = 90.5 Assignment 1 of student 2 = 49.5

C++ :: Incrementing Values In Vector Based On Variable Input

Mar 24, 2014

I'm trying to increment the values in a vector, not the vector size, based on variable input. Basically I have a vector of size 10, and all of its values are initialized at zero. The program counts the frequency of numbers 0-9 in a four digit user input. This is what I have (I want it to work so badly but the compiler says that I'm using a pointer to a function used in arithmetic):

for (int i=0; i < num_slots; ++i) {
++guess_frequency[guess[i]];
}

I just want to know if you can increment values within a vector:

E.g.
change
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
to
1 0 0 0 2 0 0 1 0 0

C++ :: Store A Reference Variable As Member Variable Of Interface Object

May 1, 2013

I am having trouble compiling my interface. I am trying to store a reference variable as a member variable of the interface object. Compiler says that the variable has not be initiated correctly.

LCD inherits from VisualInterface which is expecting a DisplayDriver object to be passed in (DisplayDriver is another interface, but thats not important).

I pass the displayDriver object in when LCD is instantiated in maininterfaces.zip

I was pasing it before as a pointer but was told that this could cause me problems with memory leaks and a reference was better, but now I cant seem to get it to compile.

C++ :: Write A Loop Assigning Variable X To All Positions Of String Variable

Sep 8, 2013

I have to write a loop assigning a variable x to all positions of a string variable and I'm stuck. I don't have extensive experience with arrays and I'm also a bit confused about C-String. The problem is below.

"Given the following declaration and initialization of the string variable, write a loop to assign 'X' to all positions of this string variable, keeping the length the same.

char our_string[15] = "Hi there!";

(Please note this is a 'C-string', not C++ standard string.)"

C :: Transform Local Variable Into Global Variable?

Oct 25, 2014

I need to transform a local variable into a global variable so I can use it in one of my functions. I thought about passing the value as a parameter to this function but I can do this since the function is called inside the while loop and this variable counts how many times the while loop does (so the final value is outside the loop). Example to visualize better:

Code:
while(condition) {
function(parameter1, parameter2);
count = count + 1;
}
printf("%d
", count);

So, I need to transform the final value of "count" into a global variable. Can I do this?

C/C++ :: Assign One Variable Address To Another Variable

Feb 3, 2014

I've been experimenting with pointers and am getting the below error.

'error: cannot convert 'int**' to 'int*' in assignment'

I thought it was ok to assign a variable address to another variable. Line 18 is where I get the error.

I am trying to show the progression of memory as I increment it as I have done on line 17 and again, I don't know why I don't see a progression through memory locations when output to the console on line 20.

Here's the code:
#include <iostream>
#include <cstring>
#include <cstdlib>
using namespace std;
int main() {

int *tt = new int;
int *p = new int;

C++ :: Create Simple Input Interface On Console - Allow To Input Values To Variables

Apr 6, 2013

I am trying to create a simple interface on console to allow to input some values to some variables. For ex:

int main() {
double a = 1.5;
double b = 2.5;
double c = 3.5;
string x;

However, I want these three to display at the same time (now they display one by one), and in the console window I can move the cursor between input place of a, b and c with "arrow key" of keyboard.

C++ :: Delete Invalid Input Until Correct Input Is Entered?

Mar 20, 2014

Program is to add two fractions together like so..

This program adds fractions. ‘Y’ continues, any other key exits program
===================================================
Enter numerator 1 ==> 1
Enter denominator 1 ==> 3
Enter numerator 2 ==> 1
Enter denominator 2 ==> 6
1 1 1
--- + --- = ---
3 6 2
-----------------------------------------------------
Continue? Y or N! ==> n

My question is that i need each input to be a number.
if a character is entered i want it to output something like..

This program adds fractions. ‘Y’ continues, any other key exits program
===================================================
Enter numerator 1 ==> 1
Enter denominator 1 ==> a
You need to enter a number here.
Press any key to continue.

and then clear the part where the letter was entered.

This program adds fractions. ‘Y’ continues, any other key exits program
===================================================
Enter numerator 1 ==> 1

C/C++ :: Passing Member Functions Member Variable To Another Variable

Aug 31, 2014

So I have a class object that contains the private member variable spot and the public member function MoveLock. Within MoveLock, is a member variable called numbers that holds the place where a user is on a "lock knob". Now, what I'm trying to accomplish is that whenever the user turns the "knob" in the wrong direction, the position is updated with that current numbers so that the clicks needed to unlock the first state is also updated. But I get these errors:

Error E2096 C:Users...switchtest.cpp 34: Illegal structure operation in function main()
Error E2294 C:Users...switchtest.cpp 39: Structure required on left side of . or .* in function main()

Ultimately, what I have in main() is a piece of what I'm going to implement in a class member function. I'm also thinking about moving the if else statements out of the for and creating a second one for the else portion.

#include <iostream>
#include <windows.h>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;
HANDLE inKeys = GetStdHandle(STD_INPUT_HANDLE);
HANDLE screen = GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE);

C :: Set Max For A Variable?

Nov 28, 2013

Is it possible to increment a number but have it print out at a maximum value I assign if it reaches that number? For example, if I have 99 tickets total and only 5 of those tickets are still available, and a person requests 10, how can I give them the 5 available and make sure it doesn't go over the max (99)?

Code:

if (strcmp(word2, "RAFFLE") == 0) {
fscanf(ifp, "%d", &purchased_raffle_tix[p]); //scans purchase
fscanf(ifp, "%d", &person[q]); //scans purchaser
num_raffle_sold += purchased_raffle_tix[p];
available_tix = 99 - last_raffle;
if (available_tix >= 1)

[Code] ....

It would out put with the number of the tickets that the purchaser received:

RAFFLE TICKETS 0 - 29 given to PERSON 22
RAFFLE TICKETS 30 - 69 given to PERSON 209
RAFFLE TICKETS 70 - 95 given to PERSON 123
RAFFLE TICKETS 96 - 99 given to PERSON 211
NO RAFFLE TICKETS given to PERSON 27
