View 2 RepliesI have got to create a program that will gather input from the user and then encrypt & decrypt those characters.
I'm not very confident at coding so I'm sure many parts of my code are written poorly and not following the best practice so I have written a simple version of an algorithm where the program simply adds/subtracts a value of 2 to/from the ASCII values but I have discovered the use of the rand() and srand functions but I'm unsure how to go about using them within both my encrypt and decrypt function as a single value (static variable?).
Here is my code in its entirety at the moment.
#include <iostream >
#include <iomanip>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <ctime>
#include <string>
#include <cstring>
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;
char getMenuSelection (char m);
void encrypt (char key[]);
void decrypt (char code[]);
[code]....
This code currently doesn't execute due to ' undefined reference to 'encrypt(char*) '
Question
I am asking how to generate the random number and incorporate this into my encrypt and decrypt functions.
1. Would the use of a static or global variable make this work as is?
2. Would I need to create separate class files for both functions?
I have trouble printing out the movies starting with inputing only two letters.
#include <iostream> //cout, cin, endl,getline
#include <fstream> //ifstream
#include <cstdlib> // exit
using namespace std;
const int NUM_MOVIES = 116792;
struct Movie {

I am stuck in this program, Be given a string of chars, where each single char belongs to the following alphabet: a..zA..Z0..9 (So, in the string there are only lowercases, uppercases and digits. No blank, no comma, ...). For every char of the given alphabet, count how many times in the string
1-- the char belong to a sequence of identical chars whose length is at least three (i.e.: in the string cc74uyrpfccc348fhsjcccc3848djccccc484jd for three times the character 'c' satisfies this condition)
Code:
#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
#include<string.h>

2-what is the longest substring of characters strictly rising interm of ASCII code(the following is greater (>) of the previous)
3- what is the longest substring of successive characters interm of given string rannge (i.e.: fhkjshdfruytyzABCDEfglsj => 7)
How do I prevent user from entering characters or symbols instead of numbers?
int num;
cout<<"Enter a number."<<endl;
cin>>num;
Also, how do I prevent user from entering a number instead of a character?
char c;
cout<<"Enter a character."<<endl;
cin>>c;
Write a program that reads a string of characters including punctuation and writes what was read but with the punctuation removed.
This is how i did it:
string x("#punctuation!?=");
cout << x << endl;
for(unsigned i = 0; i < x.size(); ++i) {
if(ispunct(x[i]))
x[i] = ' ';
cout << x << endl;
I am just not sure if thats how they want you to do it because it doesn't remove the punctuations it just replaces them with a space.
It's a tic-tac-toe program. I haven't finished doing everything I need to for the project, I'm just trying to get certain parts working as I go.
Anyway, my problem: The program will print the board and ask the first player which square they want to mark. Then it will print the updated board, print the question for the second player to input their square choice but not actually stop to let the user enter anything. Instead it prints the board again and then prints the question for player one again -- this time stopping to let them type in their choice.
Here's my code:
#include <stdio.h>
// Function prototypes
void printBoard(char board[3][3]);
int main() {
int quit = 0;
// Loop so game continues until player quits
[Code] .....
And it looks like this when I run it, as an example:
-------------
| 1 | 2 | 3 |
-------------
| 4 | 5 | 6 |
-------------
| 7 | 8 | 9 |
-------------
Player 'C' enter a square: 5
-------------
| 1 | 2 | 3 |
-------------
| 4 | C | 6 |
-------------
| 7 | 8 | 9 |
-------------
Player 'U' enter a square:
-------------
| 1 | 2 | 3 |
-------------
| 4 | C | 6 |
-------------
| 7 | 8 | 9 |
-------------
Player 'C' enter a square:
I can't get my code to compile, i need to read in lines from a file and store them in variables. Then i have to construct instances of my class for how many lines there are in the file and take those variables into them.
I'm getting this error :

My program is designed to read input from the user and then store that input in a structure variable. Whenever i use the cin.getline() function, it comes up with a semantic issue. Here is the code:
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
const int DESCRIPTION_SIZE = 100, DATE_SIZE = 20;
struct inventory {
string description[DESCRIPTION_SIZE];
[Code] .....
I left out the other functions. The error reads "no matching member function for call to 'getline'.
I'm having a problem with the two while statements in my UDF.
- 1. It will run both while loops twice...?
- 2. It now goes into a continuous loop.
- 3. When it did work, it would only return 1 value to the main()...?
#include <iostream> // for use of "cin" & "cout", endl...
#include <iomanip> // for formatting setw function
#include <cmath> // for the general math computations
#include <string> // for creating descriptive strings
#include <sstream> // used to convert a string to an integer
//user defined function
int userValue (int);

I'm trying to code a program to read the user's input and have it:
-count vowels
-stop counting vowels after '.' or '?' (ie. abcdjwef is 1 a, 1 e; while fje.fwdfeiii is just 1 e)
-closes when ENTER is pressed after a '.' or '?' is found (ie. closes after 'abacds. ENTER' as well as 'as.fefsdf ENTER')
-display the number of vowels
Is there any way to do this with only 'cin >> userInput' and a while loop checking for punctuation?
I have problem with string compare. I want to compare the string user input with a string in binary. And I don't know how to do it. Problem in function login();Here is the code: And you also can download file in attachment too..
Code:
#include<conio.h>#include<dos.h>
#include<stdio.h>
#include<process.h>
#include<string.h>
char nsb=1;
char ch, password[20], passlogin[20], inputpass[20], checked[20];
FILE *fp;
}

I have a list of objects that I need to read information from each object to compare to a user input prompt.
#include "Passenger.h"
#include "Reservation.h"

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
#include <list>
using namespace std;
//Function Prototypes
void flightRoster(list<Reservation>&);

I have to create a program that incorporates an array of structures in order to simply read input from the user and then reprint that information to the screen. This is a fairly simple problem, but the issue is that the professor requires that we solve it in a very specific way.
I must have three functions in total: one to receive input from the user, one to print the received values, and of course the main function which calls the other two. Also, the input and output functions must be defined using the following prototypes:
void inputData(Component C1);
void printData(Component *C1);
Where Component is a structure defined above as:
typedef struct// Component {
float cost;
int code;
char name[30];
[Code] ....
I know that this problem could be easily solved by simply passing the entire 'comp' array to the inputData function, or passing a pointer to it, or having it return a pointer, but I am not allowed to do any of these things. I must use the function as defined by the prototype.
it will not run and im not sure why. I have a couple of errors, but I'm not sure why.
Here is my code.
//Reads input from user to determine different discounts by number of units sold

So we have a weekend assignment that is "Write a c++ program that will allow a user to input their first name into a string, and use the switch/case statement to produce the following output. Your Program should prompt the use rwith the numbers and the options for each (school, classification, and mood) allowing them to make a choice"
My issue is with the output. The output at the end is the number that they input and not the name of the case they chose, so if they chose option 1 for school it does not print out "BRCC" at the end for the output it prints a 1.
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main(void) {
string name;
cout << "Please enter your name: ";
cin >> name;

I have a problem that states: age is an int variable and name is a string.
What are the values of age and name after the following input statements execute.
cin << age;
getline(cin, name);
if the input is:
a. 23 Lance Grant
b. 23 Lance Grant
Ok I have been fooling around with this book all day. My instructer wants us to build the program instead of just saying
a = 23 Lance Grant
How to input B. I mean when I write the program I do not know how to ask for two lines for one input.
I'm very new to c programming and I have some background in C# and java. I am supposed to read a string from input then determine in that string, which character is the largest, i.e. I think b>e and e>z, e.t.c. If the string is empty I should return '
