C++ :: Prompt User To Enter Domain Name - Return Resolved IP Address

Feb 16, 2013

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

HTML Code:
// Declare and initialize variables
#include <winsock2.h>
#include <ws2tcpip.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <windows.h>
#pragma comment(lib, "ws2_32.lib")

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;

C++ :: How To Prompt User Input Only Letters (a-z)

Mar 1, 2013

How do I have the user enter only letters?

#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?

C :: How To Prompt User To Scan Numbers Into Array

May 17, 2013

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?

C :: Design Algorithm Using Flowchart Or Pseudo Code To Prompt User For Series Of Positive Integer Value

Oct 26, 2014

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?

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 :: Input Validation - User To Enter Six Doubles

Dec 20, 2014

I'm trying to validate my input. I require for the user to enter six doubles and if they don't then I want them to re-enter the information. Here is my code:

Code:
while (1>0) {
printf("Please enter arguments in the order: negative mass, positive mass, initial x-position, initial y-position, initial x-velocity, initial y-velocity:
");

if ( scanf("%lf %lf %lf %lf %lf %lf",&MassMinus,&MassPlus,&Pos[0][0],&Pos[0][1],&Vel[0][0],&Vel[0][1]) != 6) {
printf("Not all numbers were assigned!

[Code] .....

At the moment it just waits if you enter less than six numbers and if you enter any more than 6 it just ignores anything after the sixth number (so pretty much does nothing). Also if I entered 1 2 a b 3 4 instead of entering six numbers it would register that as 1 2 0 0 3 4 but I want it to make the user input the numbers again. I'm also aware that "while (1>0)" isn't good programming form but I'm not really sure what to use instead?
