C++ :: Calculating With Time - Restrict User To Input Minutes 60-99 For Every Hour

Oct 22, 2013

I have to write a program for class in which users will be inputting:

start time = startTime
number of minutes = callDuration

so first off, teacher wants us to input time as a floating point number such as 09.00

How do I validate the time so that users cant input i.e. 09.61 for every hour? In other words, so the user cant input minutes 60-99 for every hour.

then, when calculating:
endTime = startTime + callDuration

how would I make endTime display a correct time in such a situation: endTime = 09.45 + 00.30

so that it displays 10.15 not 09.75

C++ :: How To Create Count Down Timer For 1 Hour 30 Minutes

Apr 7, 2014

I want to add a count down timer to my testing software 1hr and 30min

Its a 32bit console application, I want the countdown timer outputted above each question on the right side, timer only needs to output the time left at the top of each question so a live outputted timer is not important.

Questions are not random generated.

Also how to output "out of time" if the timer reaches 0 and for the test to end, I think branching is involved not too sure.

I already have, std::srand( std::time(0) ) ; at the start of the test to randomly generate the answer order.

C++ :: Write Program To Convert Time From 24-hour Notation To 12-hour Notation

Dec 10, 2013

Write a program to convert the time from 24-hour notation to 12-hour notation and vice versa. Your program must be menu driven, giving the user the choice of converting the time between the two notations. Furthermore, your program must contain at least the following function: a function to convert the time from 24-hour notation to 12-hour notation, a function to convert the time from 12-hour notation to 24-hour notation, a function to display the choices, function(s) to get the input, and function(s) to display the results. (For 12-hour time notation, your program must display AM or PM.)

Answer:

#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <cmath>

[Code]....

It is showing error because may be I was not able to put that if statement inside any function. find out the error sand complete the program with corrected code.

C/C++ :: Design / Implement And Test A Class That Represents Time In Minutes And Seconds

Nov 29, 2014

Design, implement, and test a class that represents an amount of time in minutes and seconds. The class should provide a constructor that sets the time to a specified number of minutes and seconds. The default constructor should create an object for a time of zero minutes and zero seconds. The class should provide observers that return the minutes and the seconds separately, and an observer that returns the total time in seconds (minutes x 60 + seconds). Boolean comparison observers should be provided that test whether two times are equal, one time is greater than the other, or one time is less than the other. (You may use RelationType and function ComparedTo if you choose). A function should be provided that adds one time to another, and another function that subtracts one time from another. The class should not allow negative times (subtraction of more time than is currently stored should result in a time of 0:00). This class should be immutable.

this is one of my main errors: Error1error C2653: 'Time' : is not a class or namespace namec:userskdesktop

C++ :: How To Restrict User To Enter Four Digit Number Only

Aug 22, 2014

I am trying to write up something to have a user to enter a four digit number. Only four digits, Ex: 0001, 0116, or 9999. There is no getting around the selection 0001 or 0002. I understand if not done correctly, the first three 0's will be ignored.

I've been just playing around with what I have below but I just don't remember how to do it nor can I find a good example online to figure it out. I know it is not correct just typing to try to remember. I am aware that it is gibberish right now, this is just me brainstorming.

int number;
cout<<("Please enter the four digit number(Ex: 0001):
");
cin>> setw(2) >> number;
cout<<)"Please enter four digit date. Two digits for month and two digits for year:
");
cin>> date;
if (number< || number > 30)
cout << "Invalid choice. Try again." << endl;
cin.clear();

C++ :: Program Which Takes Date And Time Input From The User

Jan 20, 2013

I am writing a C++ program which takes date & time input from the user. This is then parsed into a struct such as:

struct time
{
short year;
short month;
short day;
short hour;
short min;
};

My question is: how can I convert such a struct into a time_t object, which is an unsigned long giving the time as the number of seconds elapsed since the epoch Jan 1st 1970, 00:00, as set out in time.h.

I am wondering if this can be achieved using the standard library, or whether I just need to write a function to perform the appropriate arithmetic.

C++ :: Calculate User Birthday In Months / Days / Hours And Minutes From Today Date

Jul 24, 2014

The problem is that I need to figure out the user's birthday in months, days, hours, and minutes from today's date.

Here's what I have so far.

#include<iostream>
#include<cmath>
#include<ctime>
using namespace std;
int main() {
int todayDay, todayMonth, todayYear;
int birthDay, birthMonth, birthYear;

I haven't initialized all the variables, yet. And it's very unfinished. I need to figure out how to convert years from the age into months only. And I need to figure out how to calculate the hours, seconds, and minutes.

C/C++ :: Calculating CPU Processing Time?

Jun 13, 2014

I have a problem with calculating the CPUtime. I am using CPLEX to solve linear programming with 3 diferent algorithms.

1-primal Simplex
2-Dual Simplex
3-Barrier Method.

When I am trying to use Barrier method, my clock does not give me a right processing time. I don't have any problem with the other two methods. The value I am getting from ticks2 is 0 when I am using Barrier solver unlike the two other methods that I am getting some small values (ticks1 is fine). Using time_t ticks1 , ticks2 and time(&ticks1) and finally difftime(ticks1,ticks2) also gives me an integer number which is not precise enough. I need a way to compute cputime with accuracy of at least 2 decimals.

clock_t ticks1,ticks2;
double solvingtime
if (solver.primopt==1){
ticks1=clock();
status=CPXprimopt(myEnv, myLP);
ticks2=clock();

C++ :: Fwrite - Calculating Elapsed Time

Jan 24, 2013

I have a question. I would like to actually have some measure of roughly how long it takes to do a fwrite to a drive. When I do the following:

clock_t begin = clock();
unsigned long long size_t = fwrite(send, 1, transfer_size*sizeof(unsigned long long), wpFile);
clock_t end = clock();
double long elapsed_secs = double long(end - begin) / CLOCKS_PER_SEC;

Unfortunately, I don't get any different result for different transfer size!!!

My guess is that the clock_t , once it issues a fwrite command, some how stops its measurement, and it comes back again, when I am already done with fwrite. I do get the almost same measure, whether my transfer size is 32KB Byte or 16MB ! Which I was indeed expecting to see a huge difference. I wouldn't really want the exact real timing measure (well off course it will be nice to know); and all I care about is to see some difference in time whether I am doing KB transfer vs MB transfer.

Some rough measurement required of the actual time being elapsed for fwrite function?

C/C++ :: 24 Hour To 12 Hour Conversion?

this runs and everything just fine, however i cant seem to figure out why the program isnt telling to user to use a valid time for hours and minutes when it's entered over the standard time limits (i.e. cant go over 23 hours and over 59 minutes)

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
//functions for converting 24hr to 12hr notation

C++ ::  calculating Sum Of Numbers Between Two User Inputs

Mar 17, 2014

How to calculate the values between numbers that a user types in.

Write a function which takes two parameter of integer type and both parameters are positive integer. These number should be provided by the user of your program. The first parameter is lower than the second parameter. You function should be able to calculate the sum of the square of each of the numbers between the two inputs and should display that. Please write a main function to display the working of your function. Call the function at least three times by using some loop in the main function.

C/C++ :: Put Time Delay On Same Key Being Pressed By User In Row?

Apr 20, 2015

So I'm in the process of building my 2D game in Allegro5, I'm building a side platform game and at the moment I have a sprite being able to walk left right and jump. What I want to do is put a time delay on the jump function so that when a user presses the jump button and the sprite has carried out the jump function I want there to be a 1 or so second delay before the jump button actually carries out the jump function again.

I have quite a bit of code so not sure what bits to place in here, I'm more looking for a way of doing this, so providing me code isnt really needed just a way it can be done.

Things that might be useful to know:

At the moment I have a timer initialized in allegro which is used with my FPS int to mean that my game runs at 60FPS.

I have a bool bIsOnGround which maybe could be used into this, I'm not sure...

C :: Restrict Type Qualified Pointers

Sep 6, 2013

I want to give a try to "restrict" type-qualifier. I have looked for examples on google and I see the format is used: "int * restrict p";

However when I write this I get an error: "p is undeclared"

I am using GNU GCC Compiler with Code::Blocks.

How can I solve this problem. Is it possible me to adapt the compiler to C99 standarts, if I can, will it solve my problem?

C++ :: Console Input And Output At The Same Time

Mar 4, 2014

Alright, so to better myself with network logic I've decided to make a small net game.

I need to input commands to the console as well as output status updates at the same time. I'd prefer to write a gui interface for that, but I'd rather work with WinAPI as little as possible (I mean, look at the way it's designed...).

I'd like to do this with standard operations, limiting dependencies is a must for me.

C :: Program To Take Time And Date Typed By User And Increase It By 1 Minute

Mar 22, 2013

I'm having a problem with my homework. The task is to write a program that will take time and date typed by user, and increase it by 1 minute. I should write 3 functions - first calls second function that updates time and calls third function, if time is 00:00.Time update works, but date update does not.My whole written code:

Code:

#include<stdio.h>
struct DateAndTime {
struct date {
int day;
int month;
int year;

[code]....

I should check if inputs are numbers only, so I tried including isdigit function from ctype.h library, but that didn't work either, after I was trying it for a good hour or so, but I kinda rage quit that...
