C :: Getting Correct Float Value Without Having To Write In Width / Precision

Jul 16, 2014

I have this

Code:
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
float number1, number2;
printf("Enter two numbers separated by a comma ");
scanf("%f,%f", &number1, &number2);

[Code] ....

When it prints the values, it prints them as I want. the problem is, what happens when someone puts in values with different width and precision? Here I had to write in the width and precision to display the values that are specified in the book. but what happens when someone puts in something that doesn't have those width/precision?

I end up with a lot of zeros after the number. initially I got 24.000000 (zeros are not accurate amount) I needed to show just 24. (with the decimal)

So I included %2.0f which gave me 24 (without the decimal point) what if some one put in 24.556. I got 25 as a result.

Does the width mean how many numbers in total including the decimal point and that is a minimum?

C :: What Is Correct Way To Print A Float

Feb 17, 2013

I have a program that printf a float that is returned by a function like this:

Code:

printf("%3.1f
", myfloat());
...
float myfloat(void) {
code....
}

In w32 my program has been running ok, but when run in a w64, it crash at the printf. If I change the definition of the function to return double it runs ok. in printf format string - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia , in the "type" section I see there is no definition to print a float, but %f is for double in fixed point.So the question is what is the correct way to printf a float? must I cast? or is it better to return double? if so, does it have a performance penalty?

C++ :: Set Precision With Floating Point Numbers?

Feb 25, 2014

I'm displaying a table of floating point numbers with setprecision(5). If the number is "1.25" it will display "1.2500" which is what I want. However, if the number is "0.25" it will display "0.25000"

How can I make numbers with a base number of zero display properly?

C# :: Width And Height For Column And Rows

Basically when I type in different widths and heights for the col and rows, the buttons that make up the width get cut off. Something is messed up but I'm not sure what!

InitializeComponent();
int _col = int.Parse(cols);
int _row = int.Parse(rows);
int width = groupBox1.Width;
int height = groupBox1.Height;
int bW = width / _col;

C# :: Extending The Width Of The Labels To Specific Value?

Jun 3, 2014

The program is when a person clicks a button this button updates 2 separate listbox one tracks the total rolls the other displays the total amounts of frequency afterwards adjusting labels as a scaling measurement.

The problem I am having is right at the end where I am trying to adjust the width of the label this is what I have. It is highlighting the word "Items" for each label and says that Non-Invokable member 'System.Windows.Forms.ListBox.Items' Cannot be used like a method L2 is a label. Additionally I have added in the information for one of my loops below the line I am having trouble with this loop is created to determine how many lines are in the listbox of rolls and I have no trouble with this just thought id add it for additional information I dont think I need to add the rest of the code but I can if needed.

L2.Width = int.Parse(lstfrequency.Items(0).ToString());
TL = 0;
for (I = 0; I <= 10; I++)
{
TL += int.Parse(lstfrequency.Items[I].ToString());
}
lstfrequency.Items.Add(TL);

C/C++ :: How To Use Rectangle Height And Width In Functions

May 13, 2014

The problem says:

Define functions n(), s(), e(), w(), center(), ne(), se(), sw() and nw(). Each takes a Rectangle argument and returns a Point. These functions define connection points on and in the rectangle. For example, nw® is the northwest (top-left corner) of a rectangle called r.

I wrote below code for that:

#include <Simple_window.h>
Point n(const Graph_lib::Rectangle& r);
Point s(const Graph_lib::Rectangle& r);
Point e(const Graph_lib::Rectangle& r);
Point w(const Graph_lib::Rectangle& r);
Point ne(const Graph_lib::Rectangle& r);
Point se(const Graph_lib::Rectangle& r);

[Code]...

As you see, this just mark the top-left corner of the rectangle r. In other functions I need the specifications of that rectangle, for example its height and width. How to use these specs in those functions?

C Sharp :: Graphic Pen 1 Sided Width?

Apr 28, 2012

I am drawing two circle (inner circle and outer circle) using DrawElipse method. I have created two pen object named OuterPen and InnerPen and creating Outer Circle using OuterPen and Inner Circle using InnerPen. Problem that I am facing is that when I increase the size of outer pen lets say 10px then it overlaps the inner circle and inner circle is hide. How can I increase the size of OuterPen outwards and not inwards so that it don't overlap the inner circle?

C++ :: Control Ofstream Output Field Width?

Apr 25, 2013

I have to output a series of data, I have to control the width of parts of my data. like following:

double a[] = {1.0, 2.0, 3.0};
double b[] = {1.5, 2.5, 3.5};
ofsteam myfile("result.txt");
for(int i=0; i<3; i++) {
myfile.width(5);
myfile << i+1 << " : " << a[i] << " - " << b[i] << end;
}

I only want to fix the width of a[i], b[i], but let the rest to be output normally.

how I can make it?

Visual C++ :: How To Modify File Menu Width

May 15, 2013

I derived a class from CRecentFileList in order to set the number of displayed chars for MRU.

The problem is that if I open the app with 256 set for this number (it is read from .ini file) the display is correct. But after I change it to 10 for e.g., File menu width remains unchanged altghough MRU are correctly displayed on 10 (or at least file name lenghts) chars.

how can I tell to the menu to shrink to actual width?

C++ :: Reading And Writing Variable Binary Width Data

Mar 8, 2013

How to read and write an arbitrary number of bits from/to a file stream.

For instance, how to repeatedly read 9 bits from a file, then change to 10 bits, then 11 bits, and so on?

Obviously one way is by doing a lot of bit shifting, and masking. But honestly, I'm too dumb to get it right. Then I thought about using std::bitset and std::vector<bool>.

C :: Calculate Different Measurements For A Cylinder - Width Modifier For End User Input

Sep 12, 2013

I have created a program to calculate different measurements for a cylinder. Anyways, the end user has to input 3 variables.

Enter the lower radius: 6
Enter the upper radius: 5
Enter slant height: 2.236

The numbers are what "End User" would input. But I need to make it look like this when said "End User inputs the numbers.

Enter the lower radius: 6
Enter the upper radius: 5
Enter slant height: 2.236

Here is what I have for it, but I don't know what to put where.

printf("
Enter the lower radius: ");
scanf("%f", &lower_rad);
printf("Enter the upper radius: ");
scanf("%f", &upper_rad);
printf("Enter slant height: ");
scanf("%f", &slant_h);

C++ :: Input Length / Width And Height For 3 Boxes - Sum And Average Volume

Dec 6, 2013

How would I make it so that I can have someone input the length, width and height for all 3 boxes and then have it output the sum and average volume? Here's an example of what I would like:

INPUT - Enter Box 1 (Length, Width, Height): 10.1 11.2 3.3
INPUT – Enter Box 2 (Length, Width, Height): 5.5 6.6 7.7
INPUT – Enter Box 3 (Length, Width, Height): 4.0 5.0 8.0
OUTPUT – The sum of the volume is 812.806
OUTPUT – The average volume is 270.935

Here's my original code:

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
double box(double length, double width, double height); // use double data
int main() {
double sum;
sum = box(10.1, 11.2, 3.3) + box(5.5, 6.6, 7.7) + box(4.0, 5.0, 8.0);

C++ :: Demonstrate Usage Of Each Member Function Using Test Data (width And Height)

Feb 11, 2013

Provide the definitions for the following class declaration and then write a program that demonstrates usage of each member function using the test data of 10 for width and 8 for height. Remember to put your main program, class header and class source into separate files. This is an easier version of the exercise than the one you have been asked to practice. Only provide code for the methods specified in the class declaration. Note that the displayRectangle() method should output an appropriate ‘box’, its dimensions, area and perimeter to the screen.

class Rectangle {
public:
Rectangle(int height, int width);
~Rectangle(void);
