C :: Prototype Function Square Root Velocity

Mar 30, 2013

I am trying to computed the time it takes for a projectile to hit the ground. The problem is that i need to square the input of velocity before i do the calculation. the question I have is that if it's possible to have multiple arguments inside the brackets after main.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>
double distance (double a, double v, double g);
int square(int y);
double height(double v, double a, double g);
double time (double v, double a, double g);
double sqrt(double num);

C++ :: Square Root Of Number

Dec 9, 2013

i have written a function that gives me the square root of a number. Yes i know there is already a function in <cmath> that gives square roots but i thought it would be pretty challenging (and therefore fun) to try writing one on my own. I wrote my code while i was in school, listening to my Irish teacher ramble on and on about useless shit, so it's probably not the best possible way of finding the square root of a number.

double msqrt(double x) {
double adder=1;
double y = x;
for(int a=0; ; a++) {
if(y*y > x) y = y/2;
if(y*y <= x) break;

C :: Program To Find The Square Root Of A Number

Dec 5, 2013

I am writing a program to find the square root of a number. I am using the Newton-Raphson method..Just to clarify a bit of the code.. fabs(1/(x+1)) < 0.001 is to check for relative error..

EXAMPLE: for user entry of 100 if the iteration process ends in 10.055 the answer will return as 10 which is correct. But it isn't doing that.

It compiles I then proceed to run it..prompts me "Enter a number to find the square root of: I type 100 then hit enter...

"The square root of 100 is -1077834936"

My first time writing a program from complete scratch.

And I know there is a sqrt() function...just wanted to write my own.

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>
double mysqrt(double a);
int main()
{
double a, result;
printf("Enter a number to find the square root of: ");

[Code]...

C :: How To Define Epsilon In Newton Raphson Square Root Program

Mar 6, 2015

I'm working on a c program that generates approximations of square roots based on newton raphson method. I worked out the approximations with another method I learnt and I know this program does fine. But I don't get the concept of epsilon. Below is the code for the program

Code:

#include<stdio.h>
// function to compute absolute value
float absoluteValue(float x)
{
if(x < 0)
x = -x;

[code]....

The text I worked this code from uses the epsilon value arbitrarily. how is the epsilon value selected? I tried using this formula to derive the square root of 45. On paper I can go as far as 6.8 something. But once this value is reached it's still bigger than epsilon, so shouldn't the code keep running? The program generates 1.41 for 2, but since it could go further why does the while loop in squareRoot function terminate?

C++ :: Type Signature For Function Prototype

Mar 30, 2013

The function im having problems with takes an array where each element is an array of unsigned chars i.e. octals representing a bitmap of one of 95 ASCII code characters and searches through this two dimensional array looking for a match for a predetermined of array of unsigned chars i.e. the bitmap of a predetermined char. If we find the char the function outputs the index in the two-dimensional array where each elem. is an array of octals ELSE it return -1 i.e. when the char is not found.

I have 2 files, one .cpp, the other .h. There is a function named find_char. See INPUT and OUTPUT on line 48 in .cpp file.

The exception im getting is: font2.cpp:23:45:error: invalid conversion from unsigned char to unsigned char(*)[5]

The input type specified for my function prototype corresponding to find_char. If I put just unsigned char it doesn't fix the problem because it's an array parameter i.e. like a call by reference. I've lead myself to believe that the array variable contains a pointer to the first value in the array and so I've made function prototypes that work with a T* i.e. a pointer to type T. Making the function prototype argument unsigned char* i.e. a pointer to unsigned char simply gives me the exception: "invalid conversion from unsigned char to unsigned char*". When I have the argument be 'unsigned char' I get undefined reference to find_char(unsigned char). URL.....

C++ :: Switching Function Prototype To Another Type

Mar 29, 2014

This is my code:

#include<iostream>
#include<string>
using namespace std;
int bin2dec(const string binarystring); // Declaration of bin2dec prototype with one string parameter
int main() {
cout << "Enter Q to terminate program.

[Code] .....

Right now the code is in the form of a 'const string binarystring' and were supposed to be able to use 'const char binarystring[]' and for some reason whenever i try to switch it i run into problems when referencing the main function to the int bin2dec(...) function.

I wanted to know if theres a simple way to switch the prototype to an array type of function with [] without changing the entire code.

C++ :: Class Prototype - Generic Function

Aug 20, 2014

Let's first take the following class prototype:

#include <ctime>
#include <iostream>
#include <sstream>
#include <string>
#include <fstream>
class Debugger;
class Debugger {

[Code] ....

My question is regarding the GetCurrentDebugLevel function above. Ideally I would like to use just one function to get the current debug level of the class, the std::string form would be used to save the "debugging level" in a settings file and the enumerated version would for evaluation purposes throughout the program.

My question is if implementing function prototypes by return value the best way to go or should I do something else?

C++ ::  How To Initialize Function Prototype Of Array With Zero

Apr 23, 2014

We can initialize normal function prototype's parameters with zero like this:-

void output(float = 0.0, int = 0);

or

void output(int = 0, int = 0, double = 0.0);

But how do you do the same for a pointer array or simply an array?

Assume that second parameter has to be an array.

I have tried the following and it does not work:-

void output(float = 0.0, int = 0);
void output(float = 0.0, *int = 0);
void output(float = 0.0, int* = 0);
void output(float = 0.0, int[] = 0);
void output(float = 0.0, int []);

But if I skip the default declarations altogether, it works.

like:

void output(float, int []);

or

void output(float, int*);

how can I do it by explicitly writing zero, just like the first cases?

C :: Variably Modified Type - Function Prototype

Mar 24, 2013

Variably modified types are subject to certain restrictions , just as variable-length arrays are. The most important restriction is that the declaration of a variably modified type must be inside the body of a function or in a function prototype.

Code:
void f(int m , int n) {
int a[m][n] , (*p)[n];
p=a;
//....
}

What does it mean? That we can't declare such a pointer as a global variable?

C/C++ :: How To Make A Function Prototype That Uses Variables By Reference

Dec 4, 2014

How to how to make a function prototype that uses variables by reference. I'm making a decision based game where two running totals of two variables (ending and morality from decisions made) will decide the game outcome. I only have a few modules put in so far and most of the "story" parts cut down here to save space. I'm also getting an error saying there is more than one instance of overloaded function for the "whatToDo" module.

// ZombieGame.cpp : Defines the entry point for the console application.
//
#include <stdlib.h> /* srand, rand */
#include <time.h> /* time */

//These are function prototypes to declare the functions being used

Visual C++ :: How To Call Sleep Function Prototype

Dec 23, 2012

I have two problems with the code below:

1. I cannot find a header file to #include that has the sleep function prototype.

2. When I add my own sleep function prototype, I get an unresolved external reference error (for _sleep, not sleep).

What must I #include to get the sleep function prototype? What lib must I include in the linker configuration to resolve the external reference? (I suspect that if I #include the correct header file, the second question might become moot.)

The "man page" at [URL] .... says the header file is <WinBase.h>. But #include'g only <WinBase.h> results in compilation errors.

A response marked "answer" at [URL] ..... says <windows.h> [sic]. #Include'g only <Windows.h> does eliminate the compilation errors.

But apparently that does not bring in the sleep function prototype. Neither does also subsequently #include'g <WinBase.h>. (Which seems to be #include'd by <Windows.h> anyway.)

But even with my own function prototype shown below, I get an unresolved external reference for _sleep. Is that a symptom of my problem: my sleep reference is changed to _sleep? If so, how can avoid that?

According to "man page" (see link above), the external should be resolve in kernel32.lib. And kernel32.lib does appear in the "Additional Dependencies" list under Configuration Properties Linker Input.

Since I am not using C++ features, I tried setting "Compile as C" under Configuration Properties C/C++ Advanced, to no avail.

My code....

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h>
#include <Windows.h>
void sleep(DWORD msec); // added later
int _tmain(int argc, char* argv[])

C++ :: Write Prototype Of A Member Function To Overload Insertion Operator

Apr 10, 2014

Consider the class specification below. Write the prototype (i.e. header) of a member function to overload the insertion operator (i.e. <<). The << operator is to output the data members of an instance of class StudentTestScores into an output stream. Your definition should allow for chaining of output operations (e.g. cout << x << y; where x and y are of type StduentTestScires).

#include <string>
using namespace std;
class StudentTestScores{
private:
string studentName;
float *testScores; // used to point to an array of test scores
int numTestScores; // number of test scores

C/C++ :: Displaying Filled Square Next To Hollow Square?

Feb 28, 2015

I am able to display a filled and hollow square by themselves, but I can't seem to be able to get them side by side.

So this is my code so far:

[/
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()

[Code]....

I can get the hollow square to show up, but the first square just shows up as a single line instead of a square. It seems that it ignores the first if statement in the second loop. I've tried not using an if statement in the second loop but it didn't seem to work either.
