C :: User Defined Number Of Decimal Places?

Sep 2, 2013

I need the user to be able to input the number of decimal places they wish to have displayed in the output. Everything works fine as is, I just don't know how to allow for the user to input the number of decimal places they want the output to have.

Code:

#include<stdio.h>
#include<math.h>
#define PI 3.141592654
int main(void) {
//Local Declarations
int x; //desired number of decimal places
float radius; //radius of circle
float circumference; //circumference of circle

C :: Float Setting Decimal Places

Jun 27, 2013

I am trying to find out when using float in a calculation how to set the number of decimal places. For example my code below

Code:
#include stdio.h>
int main()
{
float x=123.0;

[Code]....

This returns an answer 8487.0000 I would like it not to show all the decimal places. However if the sum has decimal places I would like to select the number of decimal places shown.

C++ :: Getting 2 Decimal Places In Output Text File?

Jul 30, 2014

how I can make my output only have 2 decimal places because I want it to be a monetary value. In my code I used this:

cout.setf(ios::fixed);
cout.setf(ios::showpoint);
cout.precision(2);

which worked well at first because on my command prompt screen the numbers had two decimal places and looked liked this:

Premium for Pol1 is $14101.62
Premium for Pol2 is $14221.16
Premium for Pol3 is $582390.50
Premium for Pol4 is $220384.49

However, I also have the program outputting to a textfile called "output.txt" and when I opened this text file the numbers only had one or no decimal places.

Premium for Pol1 is $14101.6
Premium for Pol2 is $14221.2
Premium for Pol3 is $582391
Premium for Pol4 is $220384

How come the code for two decimal places is working for my output to command prompt but not my output to the text file?

Here is my code.

double ratesmn[86] = {
#include "MaleNonSmoker.txt"
- 1
};

[Code].....

C :: Inventory Program - Entering Amounts With Two Decimal Places

Jun 7, 2013

So my inventory program runs fine as far as I can tell. Except when entering "Amounts" with more that 1-precision . ie

Amount Entered : 25.99 // Problem
Amount Entered : 25.9 // No Problem

When entering say 25.99, the rest of the file is jibberish. but 25.9, the rest of the file is fine

Code:
#include <stdio.h>
typedef struct toolRecord{
int record_num;
char tool_name[16];
int quantity;
double price;

C :: Program To Generate A List Of Powers Of 3 - Decimal Places?

Sep 23, 2014

So my assignment requires us to write a C program to generate a list of powers of 3 where each output line lists three numbers: k 3k 3‐k

It should look like this (just pretend all the numbers are lined up in their respective columns)

1 0 1.0
3 1 0.333333343
9 2 0.111111112
27 3 0.037037037
81 4 0.012345679
243 5 0.004115226
729 6 0.001371742
2187 7 0.000457247
6561 8 0.000152416
19683 9 0.000050805

This is what I keep getting:

1 0 1.000000000
3 1 0.333333343
9 2 0.111111112
27 3 0.037037037
81 4 0.012345679
243 5 0.004115226
729 6 0.001371742
2187 7 0.000457247
6561 8 0.000152416
19683 9 0.000050805

My input:

Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
void powers(void) {
int i=0;
int n=9;
int x=1;
float h=1;

[Code] .....

Notice how I'm getting 1.000000000 for my first h value in my output whereas I should be getting 1.0. What am I doing wrong?

C++ :: Nested Selection Statements - Format Output Into Two Decimal Places

Apr 19, 2014

event................. red house.............. blue house........... yellow house
Chess ......................12.................... 5....................................8
TableTennis .................. 4.......................... 11.....................17
Basket Ball .................... 6......................... 5......................14
karathe ..........................5........................... 8.........................10

Write a program to input the house name, and the score (as shown in the table) of the sport event obtained by the corresponding house. Then find the total score . You should use nested selection statements.

i) If the user inputs a wrong house name, display the error message "In valid House Name".

ii) Modify the program to handle many data. After calculate and disp ay the total score of the house, the program should display a prompt "Do you need to enter nother house name?".

If the user inputs "y" or "Y", program should ask for the next house name and the scores.
If the user inputs "n" or "N" after entering all three houses, program should terminate by printing the score of the winner.
If the user inputs "n" or "N" and without entering all three houses, program should display an error message "Error in finding the winner" and terminate without printing the ranks.

Note: format the output into two decimal places.

Sample output:
Enter the house name: red house
Enter the score of Chess: 12
Enter the score of Table Tennis:4
Enter the score of Basket Ball:6
Enter the score of karathe 5
Score is: 27 Points
Do you enter another house name? y

Enter the house name: blue house
Enter the score of Chess:5
Enter the score of Table Tennis:ll
Enter the score of Basket Ball:5
Enter the score of karathe 8
Score is: 29 Points
Do you enter another house name? y

Enter the house name: yellow house
Enter the score of Chess:8
Enter the score of Table Tennis: 17
Enter the score of Basket Ball: 14
Enter the score of karathe 10
Score is: 49 Points
Do you enter another house name? n
The winner scored: 49 Points

Visual C++ :: Converting Decimal Number Given By User To Binary?

Dec 19, 2014

Write a C++ program that adds three binary numbers of 8-bit each. Every number is stored into an array of 8 elements.

Example:

Array A
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
0 1 1 0 1 1 1 0
+
Array B
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
0 1 1 0 1 1 1 0
+
Array C
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
0 1 1 0 1 1 1 0

Store the result into an array D of 8 elements. Your program should show the decimal numbers for every binary number. Print screen of 6 answers. This means you should try your program six times with different numbers in every run and show the printed screen result.

C++ :: STL Set Orderinf User Defined Objects

Mar 4, 2014

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
#include<set>

class person{
int age;

[Code] ....

When I executed the above code it displays

Age is 37
Age is 25

Here I have defined operator< so that set can identify the order of person objects. I am clueless how set could identify that

person p[3]={person(25),person(37),person(25)};

I have provided one duplicated object with age 25

I havent overloaded == operator also,then how it could identify?

Jul 29, 2014

Write a program to ask a user to input a symbol from the keyboard and to output that symbol in a n X n/2 sized V where n = the width of the V. You must use a loop to process the data

I am stuck at trying to figure out how to do the actual output formatting. This is where I am sitting currently.

string character = "";
int vheight = 0;
Console.WriteLine("Enter the character you wish to use for your V: ");

C++ :: How To Assign Char Array As User Defined String Object

Apr 17, 2014

STRING s1 = “FOOBAR”

Here STRING is a user defined class. how to assign a constant char array "FOOBAR" to string object? Copy constructor need to be same class type as parameter. and overloading assignment operator also need to be same class type. I think 'friend' can let pass another type of object rather than STRING to do operation on overloaded '=' operator. How could it be done if it is possible at all?
