C++ :: Best Way To Prompt User Again After Some Conditions Have Met
Mar 9, 2013
Here is a simple drinks machine programm. It basically consists in the user selecting a drink that it's presented, if the user selects correctly the number representing a certain drink, the machine shows the user what was the drink he selected, after his choise the machine asks for money insertion, if the user inserts the incorrect amount of money, the machine shows an error saying that user need to insert the correct amount of money.
My problem is that, if the user selects a different number other than those presentend, the machine displays an error saying that he needs to choose a valid drink, but i can't find a way to reprompt the user again after the error has been displayed. here's the code.
// ***Drinkins Machine*** by Roxmate
#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>
using namespace std;
int main() {
// initializes the variables coca, fanta, iced and drink to be used in switch function,so that the user can choose what drink he wants.
int coca = 1;
I am trying to write a program to get user's input but only accepts alphabetic characters, nothing else and I want it to ask the user to enter a valid word until they have finally entered a valid one. I have the following code for it but it does not work properly.
void CheckBound (char word1[], int SIZE1) { int i; int w1[SIZE4]= {0}; int found; for (i=0;i<strlen(word1);i++) {
#include <iostream> #include <limits> int getInt() { int x = 0; while(!(cin >> x))
[Code] ....
But this function prompts the user to only input integer values. I was thinking if I could maybe try tweaking with this one so that the user could only enter letters..no luck though. So how can I have the user input letters only?
how to re-prompt a user with a switch statement menu that I prompted them earlier with. There are 4 options and after the user chooses an option the menu is supposed to pop up again unless the user chooses option 4, how do I do this? For reference I'll put up my source code.
Code: int main(){ int init_bal,choice,balance,investment, donation; printf("Welcome!
i need to prompt the user of my program to input numbers into an array so that later on these numbers can be added or subtracted with other numbers to form a new array. My problem is I don't know how to make the user input numbers which will then be saved into the array for later use. Here is the parts of my code that relate to the problem:
Code:
float Xv, Yv, Zv, Xu, Yu, Zu ; float vector1[VECTOR_LENGTH] = {Xv, Yv, Zv} ; scanf("%1f %1f %1f", &Xv, &Yv, &Zv); printf("The first element in the array vector1 is: %3f ", vector1[0]);
The point of that printf function is to see if what they have entered is actually registering as what i want it to. This does not work however and the value for this always comes up as 0.
how to scan numbers into an array so that they can be used for later use?
I am simply trying to prompt a user to enter M for Male or F for Female. However, when I test run the program (what I've got so far below), any letter inputted is accepted and continues the program..?
#include <iostream> using namespace std; int main() { char gender; int maleBodyWeight;
I need to create a program that will prompt the user for an input, then it will save their input to a file and then it will prompt the user to input "Open" and then the file containing their first input, will open up and show their input.
I'm trying to develop a programme which, amongst other things, prompts the user to enter the filename which is to be opened. This is what my code looks like currently:
char filename[20]; FILE *myfile;
printf("Enter the full file name you would like to open:"); scanf("%s", filename);
[Code] .....
However, this only ever returns File Not Found - the file is stored in the same directory as the program, and I have tried looking up this issue online, to no avail ....
I am having problems printing "->" on the beginning of each line, im trying to do it as a loop and ending it when the user types "q". also i would like to know how to ignore text from the user when the input begings with a specific character. heres what ive done so far, and not currrently working as expected.
Code: #include <stdio.h> int main (void) { char prompt; printf("~~~ FRACTION CALCULATOR ~~~
I'm having a problem with the two while statements in my UDF.
- 1. It will run both while loops twice...?
- 2. It now goes into a continuous loop.
- 3. When it did work, it would only return 1 value to the main()...?
#include <iostream> // for use of "cin" & "cout", endl... #include <iomanip> // for formatting setw function #include <cmath> // for the general math computations #include <string> // for creating descriptive strings #include <sstream> // used to convert a string to an integer //user defined function int userValue (int);
This is a winsock program designed to prompt the user to enter a domain name. The program is then supposed to return to the user a resolved ip address of that domain name. The user should also be able to enter an IP address and receive back a domain name.
While the program prompts the user to enter the domain name, all that is ever returned is error#:0

I'm expected to write a c program for this question :
Using these header files #include <stdio.h> #include <conio.h>
Question : Write a program that will prompt the user to enter an integer value and a character code to indicate whether they want to do a Kilogram to Pounds conversion (A) or a Pounds to Kilogram (B) conversion. Note that 1 kg = 2.2 pounds. The program should then do the necessary conversion indicated by the code and display the newly converted value to the screen.
Design an algorithm using flowchart or pseudo-code to prompt the user for a series of positive integer values. Calculate the average of these values and display the average at the end of the program. Assume that the user types the sentinel value -1 to indicate end of data entry.
Sample input-output: Enter a positive integer (-1 to end) : 5 Enter a positive integer (-1 to end) : 7 Enter a positive integer (-1 to end) : 6 Enter a positive integer (-1 to end) : -1
The average value is: 6
I searched online and found out this solution however it is only for three numbers.Is there any way of modifying this to include the sum of x numbers / number of x(integers) to find the average?
I am studying about recursion by myself and i want to make a recursive function that prompts the user to input the base and exponent and generate the final answer .
#include<iostream> using namespace std; int recursive(int x, int y); int main() { /*int total=1; int y, x;
I have tried writing a code and come across an issue where I'm not getting the desired result. It is to design a program that tells whether gas emissions from a car are too high, or permissible. The instructions are to design a code where there are four possible choices of pollutant, whether the emitted pollutant ratio is greater or less then a certain value, and the mileage on the car. All of these are supposed to determine whether the emissions are permissible or not, which would be displayed with printf. (The actual conditions of the assignment are described perfectly by the code below, so I didn't think it would be necessary to write it out. The problem is that I'm getting a logical error.) Here's the code:
Code: #include <stdio.h> int main() { int poln, odr; double gpm; printf ("(1) Carbon Monoxide
[Code] ....
My error is that the program will proceed with the first four if/else statements, but once the 'poln' value changes to something other then one, it will not display the expected quotation.
In the below program, when we have 4 consecutive spaces, the following comparison will not be equal: (x / tabstop != (x + spaces) / tabstop). If we have, let's say, only 2 consecutive spaces, then the comparison will be equal. So we know to print a tab with 4 consecutive spaces and not print a tab otherwise. How do we know this kind of division comparison would work in every case?
#include <stdio.h> #define TABSTOP 4 int main(void) { size_t spaces = 0; int ch; size_t x = 0; /* position in the line */ size_t tabstop = TABSTOP; /* get this from the command-line
I wrote a code to ascend any three integers. Problem is the code does not output the numbers in ascending order all the time. What am I doing wrong? here is my code :
// This program will prompt user to enter any three integers and then out integers in ascending order #include <iostream> #include <cmath> using namespace std; int main() { int num1,num2,num3; cout << "Enter the first number: " << endl;
I'm trying to write a piece of code that calculates the difference in days between two manually input dates. The part of my code that's causing problems is:
xxx
When running the code and prompted to enter the date, if I input for example 31/12/2014, it'll be rejected and send me back to the beginning of the loop. Any date with 31 days involving months 1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 10 or 12 causes this problem. All other valid dates however work perfectly fine (e.g. 30/4/2014).
Something possibly worth mentioning is that, when I take out all other conditions from the loop, i.e.
xxx
it works fine (31/12/2014 is accepted), but of course I need all of the other conditions in there too.
I am trying to use enumeration types in my conditions to make a simple program that calculates area of a square or circle depending on users choice then updates the total area and outputs the total area.
The program builds fine. But it ignores all of my loop conditions and i'm not sure why.
