C++ :: Character Sequences - Declaring Arrays?

Apr 1, 2014

According to [URL] ....

" char myword[] = { 'H', 'e', 'l', 'l', 'o', '' };
char myword[] = "Hello";

In both cases, the array of characters myword is declared with a size of 6 elements of type char: the 5 characters that compose the word "Hello", plus a final null character (''), which specifies the end of the sequence and that, in the second case, when using double quotes (") it is appended automatically."

However there are examples where word array is declared as :

char myword[] = { 'H', 'e', 'l', 'l', 'o' };

Is syntactically correct?? If yes, what is the size of myword? and does '' append by compiler automatically?

And is char myword[] = "abc" same as char myword[] = {'a','b','c',''} or is it same as char myword[] = {'a','b','c'} ??

C :: Why To Set Length Of Inner Arrays Declaring A Function

Oct 23, 2013

I'm just wondering, why you have to set the length of the inner arrays declaring a function. In which moment does the code needs to be sure about the length of the inner arrays accessing an cell?

I came up with this question realizing the elements of the outer array beeing pointers to the first value of each inner array. Therefore I can access e.g. the first first element of the second inner array like this:

**(arr + 1) ...regardless of the length of any array to my mind.

C++ :: Declaring Parallel Arrays As Functions

Oct 23, 2013

i'm facing some problems with the array, as I have my .h and .cpp files so do i declare them as per norm of how we usually declare a function?

pointtwod.h
class PointTwoD {
private:
int xcord,ycord;
float civIndex;
LocationData locationdata;

[Code] ....

when i compile the error message i get was even when i i put in int xord[]; in my PointTwoD.h file:

PointTwoDImp.cpp:99:6: error: prototype for 'void PointTwoD::storedata(int*,int*,float*) does not match any in class 'PointTwoD'

PointTwoD.h:48:8: error: candidate is: void PointTwoD::storedata(int, int, float)

C++ :: Declaring And Accessing Arrays In Classes

Mar 31, 2013

We are learning how to use composition. In this project there is the Main (), resistor .cpp and .h, capacitor .cpp and .h, and filter .cpp and .h. I have 4 arrays built in the resistor.cpp that I want to print through the main(). I put the arrays in the constructor and have watched them initialize with the proper values, but as soon as the program leaves the constructor the values are wiped away and the elements are left with the value " -858993460 " in all of the them.

Here is the code:

Filter Main()
#include "Capacitor.h"
#include <conio.h>
#include "Filter.h"
#include <iostream>
#include "Resistor.h"
#include <windows.h>
#include <iomanip>

C++ :: Initializing And Declaring Arrays In Classes?

Jan 23, 2012

I'm picking up C++ by translating java code to C++. I have the completed code in java and it works perfectly. I'm not going to paste the whole code, this is a part of what I have:

Code:
class Graph
{
final int MAX_VERTS = 20;

I know it looks almost exactly the same as its java counterpart. I have several sources opened, but it's all bits and pieces of what I need.

C++ :: Declaring Arrays - Counting Number Of Lines In Text File

Feb 9, 2013

I'm creating a program to read information about class schedules at my school, reformat the information, and allow the user to search for specific semesters. There are eight fields of information. I'm reading the info from a text file using eight parallel arrays, but I'm having trouble declaring the arrays. I can run this code in one compiler (Dev-C++) with no problems, but I get errors when trying to compile it using Visual Studio stating that arrays must be declared with a constant value. I have a loop to run through the text file, with a counter to increment with each subsequent line, then I create a constant int equal to the counter, and declare the arrays of size equal to the constant int. Here's the section of code in question:

// Counting the number of lines in the text file
inFileForLines.open("CIS225HW1DA.txt");
string countLine;
int numberOfLines = 0;
//Discarding the first line of the text file containing only column headings
getline(inFileForLines, countLine);

C++ :: Winsock - Receive / Send Sequences

Oct 25, 2013

I'm trying to understand winsock with c++. Let's assume I have a 2 working applications, one is the client and one the server:

Client: I can enter a command, for example chat or filetransfer, it will then switch into this specific mode where I can enter commands like uploading a file, send a message etc.

Client
Code: ....
while (rc != SOCKET_ERROR) {
printf("
#");
gets(buf);
if (strcmp(buf, "CHAT") == 0){
// start chat mode

[Code] .....

I'm in a recv/send loop and I'm using streams...so basically all the data is being sent/received there. Now, if I want to upload a file, I send a FILETRANSFER String to the server. Then I will probably need another loop that receives file requests from the client. The server will need more details about the file, like the path, name, size...

Now, my question is, what's the best practise for something like that? I'm having problems understand how I can send 3 different values from the server to the client and how he will receive them in the right order store them in variables. And also, after sending something to the server, in some cases, the client will have to wait for the server to answer.

Is there a good example of a similar application?

C++ :: Parallel Scan Of Sorted Sequences?

Feb 4, 2015

I need to take an unknown amount of sorted files and then output any number that is in at least half of them... I know I need to read in the files to a vector and then iterate through them all at the same time looking at the lowest number first and so on. But I am stuck at the point of taking an unknown amount of files and putting them in a container.

This is what I have so far but the vector isn't working and I think I should be putting each file into its own vector.

string get_file(string filename)
{
ifstream in(filename);
if (in)

C++ :: How To Use Templated Varadic Sequences And Integral Sequence Wrappers

Jul 15, 2013

I've been studying the heck out of the boost metafunction libraries. I understand a good deal of what things like varadic functions and integral sequence wrappers are, but I am having a hard time putting everything together to get working functions, such as performing arithmetic operations or functions like that of std::vector.

Here is an example of what I'm talking about:

// Sequences
template<typename T... N> struct seq;
template<typename T, T... N> struct seq_c;

// Integral constant wrapper
template<int T> struct int_

[Code] .....

My knowledge of all of this is pretty scattered and I've really been trying hard to put it all together. Is this correct? How can I apply this and use it to do more?

C :: Read From Stdin (File) Character By Character

Nov 10, 2013

I have to optimize a code for below scenario. I am reading stdin (a file redirected to stdin) character by character. How many chars are going to come is not known. After every few chars there is a seaparator. e.g $ as below

rhhrkkj$hghjhdf$ddfkrjt

While reading, if the separator arrives I'm processing the string stored before that separator and then continue reading stdin in same fashion, till EOF. I am using getc(stdin) to read chars.

Using gprof I can see most of the program time is spent inside main() , for this reading logic. Rest of the program is just some insert and search operations. I am getting time of 0.01 secs at the moment, want to reduce further.

C++ :: How To Read TXT File Character By Character

Oct 6, 2013

In my program, I'm supposed to read a text file (the name of which is given to me as a command line paramater, as long with an integer), and display the text in a specific format (each line can only be as long as the integer). However, I'm having trouble even reading the text file. I don't know the syntax. I'm only allowed to edit the function that does the formatting, and the code in that is

void typeset (int maxWidth, istream& documentIn)

I don't know how to 'read' the file, as most examples online are ifstream, or openFile or something like that. What I want to do is just read the first character of the file, and continuously keep reading characters until the end of the file.

C/C++ :: Replacing Character In String With Another Character

Sep 13, 2014

So I'm trying to create a function that replaces any instance of a character in a string with another. So first I tried the replace() string member function:

In my implementation file

void NewString::ReplaceChar(const char& target,const char& entry)
{
this->replace(this->begin(),this->end(), target, entry);
};

Main program

#include "NewString.h"
using namespace ...;
int main()

[Code].....

Instead of replacing the the l's with y's it outputted a long string of y's. Also, NewString is derived from the string class (it's for the assignment). the header and whole implementation file, already tested.

I've also tried, instead, to use a for loop in ReplaceChar() but I need to overload the == operator and I don't know how I should exactly:

bool NewString::operator ==(const char& target)const {
if(*this == target)
return true;

[Code]....

I want the == operator to test if the value in the char array is equal to target but I'm not sure how to pass in the position. I'm guessing the this pointer in ReplaceChar() is not the same as the one dereferenced in ==() because target is never replaced by entry in the string.

C :: Arguments When Declaring A Function?

Jun 5, 2013

I am a bit confused about how specific one must be with arguments when declaring a function. I'll show you two functions from the book I'm using to learn C to show you what I mean.

Example 1 (greatest common denominator function):

Code:
void gcd (int u, int v) {
int temp;
printf ( "

[Code] ....

So in that function, there are exactly two arguments, because that's how many arguments the algorithm to find the gcd takes. No problem there, makes sense to me. Then further in the chapter on functions I run into this,

Example 2 (square root function):

Code:
float absoluteValue (float x) {
if ( x < 0 )
x = -x;
return x;

[Code] ....

In this second example, we have a square root function that is preceded by an absolute value function. The absolute value function has the one argument, "float x", however when this function is called within the square root function, the arguments "guess * guess * -x" are passed to it. I'm confused how this absolute value function is working with all of that inside it, when it was originally declared with just "x." The only possibility I can think of is that this expression is treated as a single unit, but I'm not sure.

C :: Declaring Array In If-Else Construct

Apr 4, 2013

Code:

if (IS_LEAP_YEAR(year))

else
const int days_per_month[] = {0, 31, 28, 31, 30, 31, 30, 31, 31, 30, 31, 30, 31}; Is it ok to declare the array in this manner or is it bad?

And i have to ask the user for a date to enter in my program. So should I use scanf or should I store the date in a string and then use sscanf. I have to check for valid input for everything like day, month, year etc. I did it as below..

Code:

int assignments;
assignments = scanf("%d / %d / %d", &month, &day, &year);
fflush(stdin);
if (assignments != 3)
{
printf("Retry: ");
}
else

I have got a code like this. I don't expect to get an output but just assumed I would see the command screen until I terminated it. What I want to do is just declare a variable b in a endless loop. But what I got from the compiler is this error: error: expected expression before 'int'. I am using Code::Blocks and I think the compiler is GCC.

C++ :: Forward Declaring Typedefs

Jun 13, 2014

I'm using some rather large external libraries, and I want to load them in my .cpp file only. so, my header looks like this:

namespace {
// hidden declarations
namespace geometry {
class Point;
class Polygon;
class Box;
//etc
}
}

In the declaration of the main class in that header, I merely use these as pointers or references. The .cpp file looks as follows:

// Boost
#include <boost/geometry/geometry.hpp>
#include <boost/geometry/geometries/polygon.hpp>
#include <boost/geometry/geometries/point_xy.hpp>
#include <boost/geometry/multi/geometries/multi_polygon.hpp>

[Code] .....

This doesn't work however:

error C2371: '`anonymous-namespace'::geometry::Point' : redefinition; different basic types
1> e:..........NavigationMesh.h(10) : see declaration of '`anonymous-namespace'::geometry::Point'

What can I do to forward declare external classes like this?
