C :: While Loop Not Working - Not Sure Whether Fflush Or Scanf Is Used Correctly
Jan 17, 2015
I just started learning programming. I tried using this but the loop is not working ....
Code:
#include<stdio.h>
#include<ctype.h>
#define PI 3.1416
void main(void) {
char choice;
float r, area;
[Code] ....
However when i removed this portion below, and replacing it with choice='Y';, the loop works just fine although my intention is to continue the loop only when 'y' is entered.
Code:
printf("Continue? Y/N:");
fflush(stdin);
scanf_s("%c", &choice);
choice = toupper(choice);
I think that I'm using the code wrongly but i'm not sure where the mistake lies in

The while loop part of my program isn't working right. stringOriginal is an array. If a large amount of characters passed the max 80 im processing is typed, it goes into a infinite loop. Also the condition doesn't work i type in quit and the loop continues.
while(stringOriginal != "quit"){
std::cout << "Enter a string of characters you would like to reverse
";
cin.getline(stringOriginal,79,'
');
}

I have an assignment for class .. It works, the do-while loop isn't working correctly. Once I am doing inputting information for any employee It should ask to continue. It doesn't, It skips that loop and prompts to enter the type of employee again.
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;
int main( ) {
char empInput;
char continueResponse;

I am trying to compare a double to be within various ranges, but the comparison is not working correctly. Rounding precision is not a concern, because if the value will match the boundaries so rarely, and it is rounding up to the higher range is acceptable. Below is the doe at issue:
if (kq == 2) {
if (fundt[kq-1][ky-1][2-1] < 450,000,000.00) ktti[ky-1][0] = 1;
else if ((fundt[kq-1][ky-1][2-1] >= 450,000,000.00) && (fundt[kq-1][ky-1][2-1] < 525,000,000.00)) ktti[ky-1][0] = 2;
else if ((fundt[kq-1][ky-1][2-1] >= 525,000,000.00) && (fundt[kq-1][ky-1][2-1] < 650,000,000.00)) ktti[ky-1][0] = 3;
else if ((fundt[kq-1][ky-1][2-1] >= 650,000,000.00) && (fundt[kq-1][ky-1][2-1] < 750,000,000.00)) ktti[ky-1][0] = 4;
else if ((fundt[kq-1][ky-1][2-1] >= 750,000,000.00) && (fundt[kq-1][ky-1][2-1] < 850,000,000.00)) ktti[ky-1][0] = 5;
[Code] ....
I know that a triple-dimension array looks complex, but I can guarantee that is a double. The literal constants I am using should automatically be doubles. The subscript of [2-1] looks odd, but this is code I was given to maintain, and that is how it is written elsewhere, so I kept it for consistency. The problem I am having is that when I run this code, all the data I input is less than the 450 million value, but the run falls through all the if and if-else conditions, and the else code is what is actually executed, i.e., I always get six as my result.
I am running on a Sun Sparc, and the compiler used is SunStudio 12. I have tried using variables, with the values listed above assigned to each variable, but it does work either. When I use variables, if the input value is negative, the comparison for less than 450 million works, but any positive input values will through to the else and give me six.

I've was trying out a function template to automatically get the type of a lambda, but it seems that it won't compile
I've tried two different ways:
1.
template<class HASHER>
auto make_unordered_map(size_t bucketCount, HASHER const && hf)
-> unordered_map<string const, HASHER>&& {
return unordered_map<string const, int, HASHER>(bucketCount, hf);
} auto x = make_unordered_map(1, [](string const& key)->size_t { return key[0]; });
2.
template<class HASHER>
auto make_unordered_map(size_t bucketCount, HASHER const && hf2)
-> unordered_map<string const, int, decltype(hf2)> {
return unordered_map<string const, int, decltype(hf2)>(bucketCount, hf2);
} auto x = make_unordered_map(1, [](string const& key)->size_t { return key[0]; });
The test code are located here:
1. [URL] ....
2. [URL] ....
They are both based on the code that is stated to work in those examples. I.e.:
auto hf = [](string const& key)->size_t { return key[0]; };
unordered_map<string const, int, decltype(hf)> m (1, hf);

My random number generator isn't working properly. It seems to be ignoring my conditions when it compiles and I enter the input. The program is supposed to accomplish the following.
1. Let the user input how many digits he or she would like to have in the random numbers.
2. Let the user type in how many of the numbers that he or she wants.
3. It will then generate the numbers.
4. It will display the minimum or maximum number it can be with the number of digits the user entered. And display the number of numbers that the user wanted. It also is supposed to check and output only up to the max of that digit range.
so if someone entered they wanted a digit of 1(1-9) but said they wanted 300 numbers it would only output 9
Example:
the user says that she would like 3 digits to be in the numbers generated. So it will output numbers between 100 and 999. then the user says that they would like only 3 random numbers. So it will output three random numbers in between 100 and 999. Also all of the numbers need to be unique so they can't output more then one of the same number.
I am not sure why but it ignores my conditions. Ill type that I want 7 but it just outputs a bunch of random numbers. it dosen't stay in the ranges.
Class file.
Code:
#include "stdafx.h"
#include <fstream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <conio.h>
#include "TargetGen.h"
using namespace std;

I wrote a Simon game, and wanted to save the top 10 scores. I was working right, until I decided I wanted to still be able to read the file if someone enters a name containing spaces. Now, the results aren't right.
void FillScoreList(string Simon_Names[], int Simon_Scores[]) {
ifstream Simon_HiScores("Simon_Data.txt");
if (Simon_HiScores.is_open()) {
for( int x=0;x<10;x++){
[Code] ....
Even without trying to read names with spaces, I'm getting
dad 1
0
340176
0
... either a long number or a zero. No names

After searching, it seems that I've finally arrived at the good old traditional "Random Number Game". I've been presented with solving this problem in the context of Visual C#.
I've solved the first part of the problem: Have the user enter a random number, display "Too high" or "Too Low" depending on the entry. If user guesses, let the user know. That part of the problem I was able to solve with only 3 IF statements. In it's current version, instead of using all IF statements, I saw where 3 test conditional weren't needed. (If it's not greater nor lesser it's equal or,.... "otherwise do this").
An enhancement to the problem ask that the user be notified of how many guesses it took to get the number correct. I reasoned that number of guesses could be translated to mean " number of iterations ".
I'm having trouble using the counter variable to track the iterations, then display the total iterations. I'm not seeing how to increment that value with each loop. I've basically reached two results no matter how I've used counter and written the while loop. The first one returns back to me "the guessed number". Example, if I guessed 10 times and the lucky number was 58, the display statement in the ELSE clause became: "Congrats. You guessed the number in 58 tries!".
The other result is what's returned by the code in it's current form. I think it'll be clearer for me to debug from this point then the previous. Here, I can see how I reach "Congrats. You guessed the number in 2 tries!". It's apparent that counter is being incremented by one regardless how many guesses the user makes. On the contrary, it's not so apparent to me how previously, the value returned by the counter variable at the end of the loop was actually the value for the random number generated and the user's entry (hence, the correct number) and NOT the total loop iterations.
Here's the code :
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Windows.Forms;

So, I have the beginnings of a rock paper scissors game which i have created before in Java, and i am attempting to create it in c++.
Problem is, the function "int checkConvertInput" containing a loop to make sure input is valid, is not exiting the loop. As far as i can see the two strings are not comparing. Is there a library function for this? I know C had strcmp but i am not sure if it applies here.
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <vector>
using namespace std;
int checkConvertInput(int playerSign, string signs[]);

I'm trying to write a C++ program that will allow a user to input a number from the keyboard. Then using a loop, that will perform 10 times, multiply the entered number by the loop counter. Print out the loop counter, the entered number and the product of the loop counter and the entered number. A one-time heading should be displayed before information is printed.
This kinda of what I have so far:
#include <iosteam>
using namespace std;
int main () {
Start
Declare: numScores, sum, score, avg, SENTINEL = 200
numScores = 0
[Code] ....
All the programs I have tried to make are not working?

When I do this:
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main () {
int guess ;
int number = 5 ;
[Code] .....
But when I do this:
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main () {
int guess ;
int number = 5 ;
[Code] ....
Why does the compiler say that there is an else without a previous if ??? ... Does this mean that I cannot use "scanf" in an if/else statement?

I want the user to be able to enter a command then a character, like for example: push r....I want the command to be stored in the array command, and the character to be stored in the variable c.
Now I wonder what the best way to get rid of the space is, using scanf or getchar (see below for code, only thing that I changed between the 2 versions is the statement before the comment "get rid of space")? Or maybe it doesnt matter?
Code:
include <stdio.h>
#define MAX 200
void push(char c); // Puts a new element last in queue
char pop(void); // Gets the first element in queue
static char s[MAX];
}

In GCC v4.6, I am encountering a strange problem. If I try to get a character input and a int input like this:
Code:
int main()
{
int a;
char b;
scanf("%d",&a);
scanf("%c",&b);
}
the compiled program asks for input only one time. On the other hand, if I do the char scanf earlier like this:
Code:
int main()
{
int a;
char b;
scanf("%c",&b);
scanf("%d",&a);
}
it asks for input twice.

I am trying to write a terminal-like chat application in Linux. I would like to use a FIFO queue to print out the messages in terminal. The queue would be populated from 2 sources- stdin and messages sent from the other user over TCP. I have meet an obstacle that I cannot handle...
Lets say I would like to take user input using fgets and put it into a buffer. Then queue it if the buffer is not empty or print if it is. The problem is that when I use fgets or scanf, my input is instantly printed to the terminal..If i do:
Code:
fgets(message, 100, stdin); printf
("%s", message The string under message is printed twice :|. Is there a way to prevent this?

I wanted to input some numbers with scanf function, i can enter some numbers and if I input -1 to the scanf, the input must end. And the scanf function has limited input, the max that I can input is 40 numbers.example if enter 1 2 4 6 5 4 -1 the scanf function will ended and the result will be appear.I wanted to know how the scanf function is like that would be best for this problem, Code: scanf("%d", &n); the result if I input those number will be like

I don't know how many numbers will be the input only that its going to be up to 10000. EOF should be active. I tried it like this:
Code:
int i = 0;
int del[10000]
while (scanf("%d",del[i])!=EOF)
{
i++;
}
But it seems the value of i doesn't increment, could you provide some tips on how to scanf the inputs into an array if I don't know how many numbers will I have?

I have created a prompt which prompts the user for an integer and I have set up a loop to check for if it is an integer or not. My "bug" is that a user can enter an "integer" and "space" and "enter" and it does not give any error and assumes that "All is FINE!". I have gotten the value from the ascii table of 'SPACE' and put it as a check in my parameter of while, but it does not work.
Here is my code:
int x, y, boolean, i;
char buff[256];
printf("Enter the first integer value: ");
scanf("%s", buff);
i = 0;
boolean = 0; //initializing our boolean var that will eventually decide if we have an error or not

I am writing a program and am asking the user to enter a number between 1-12.
If they do not, they will be promoted over and over again to enter a number between 1-12.
However, if the user enters a letter or anything else scanf seems to stop working and then my loop goes out of control.

How to store the value in this case.. The topic is called "limited summation".. The following is the guideline for this problem:
Write a program in a folder called "sum" with a source file of main.cpp that does the following:
•prompt a user to enter a maximum number of entries, make the prompt "max # entries"
•prompt a user to enter a threshold sum, make the prompt "threshold"
•using error checking logic, let a user enter base-10 signed numbers until at least one of the following conditions is true:
or the maximum number of entries is reached
or the sum of entered numbers has reached (>=) the threshold
•print the sum of all the entries, just the number and a linefeed at the end of the line
Error checking means entries that are not numbers are detected and ignored. You are to use printf and scanf in this assignment (no cin or cout).

I tried to scanf the input by the user into the function but it does not read my input. Read on one of the thread, it said that to scanf a input into a double, need to use %1f instead to %d (which normally used. I tried changing it to %1f and it still did not work.
