C++ :: Use Construct Object (Shape) Efficiently?
Jun 27, 2014
have a problem with my code (I wish for answer with code). The conditions I have to grant:
- **Only** a pointer to an object must be saved in a **standard** class vector (e.g vector<ShapePtr>)
- Base class must be a polymorphic class (I call this class ShapePtr)
- I **must** have a deep copy process
- Constructor is **not** suppose to do a deep copy
- **clone()** is suppose to do the deep copy
Here is the code **provided** to me:
main.cpp
int main() {
typedef shared_ptr<Shape> ShapePtr;
vector<ShapePtr> shapevec;

And for some reason my program pauses (nothing displays, and my cursor changes to the little "loading" cursor thingy) when it hits line 139. That is where I added an additional piece of code that should change the shape of the triangle while the program is running.
#include <Windows.h>
#include <WindowsX.h>
#include <d3d9.h>
#define CUSTOMFVF (D3DFVF_XYZRHW | D3DFVF_DIFFUSE)

Write a C-program that efficiently multiplies a number by a factor 2 to the power n. The number to multiply and n are variables, which get a value at the start of the program.
Clue: 1 shift to the left is the same as multiplying by 2. 2 shifts to the left are the same as multiplying by 4. 3 shifts to the left are the same as multiplying by 8

Suppose your program has many concrete subtypes of Person, and each person will have their own file saved, with their type stored in that file. When reading the files to create the people again (of their proper types), what is the best method to maximize performance (and elegance by shortening the code)? Here is what I have so far.
First I used if statements, which is terrible, and now I've improved the performance logarithmically using std::map. I still suspect there is a better way, especially if there are going to be hundreds of different classes. If you want to test it, you can change the PATH constant to whatever path you want, or just leave it as an empty string, and the files will be created in the same directory as your cpp file. The part I'm trying to improve is pointed out in the comments.
struct Person {
std::string name;
Person (const std::string& newName) : name (newName) {}
virtual ~Person() = default;
};
struct Guy : Person {using Person::Person;};
struct Girl : Person {using Person::Person;};

we conform to the ISO C standard and this snippet of code : Code: vector<tree*> *leaves = new vector<tree*>[num_threads]; where num_threads is specified from command line arguments so not dynamically allocating it violates the standard.
Let's also assume num_threads is greater than one.
What I want to do is scan each vector in leaves for duplicates. If any two vectors in the set have matching addresses, they both immediately go onto the "unsafe" pile and will no longer be subject for testing.
If a vector clears one vector, we test it against the others in the set.
So if we have 3 vectors, A, B and C we test A against B then A against C. For efficiency, we then then just test B against C.
Like I said, I want a "safe" and "unsafe" pile. Every vector in "safe" is fully unique while every vector in "unsafe" is not unique.
I thought about just using a for-loop to loop through leaves and then iterate through each element but I'm not sure if that'll work just right out of the box.

Code:
if (IS_LEAP_YEAR(year))
const int days_per_month[] = {0, 31, 29, 31, 30, 31, 30, 31, 31, 30, 31, 30, 31};
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
error checking.

This code i made divided a user input into characters and non character. The problem im having is that if a mixed sentence is created, such as 32B, it will only print the 'char string' and not the 'non char string'. But when the sentence is just non characters like 32 it will print the 'non-char string'. So essentially if a mixed sentences is created both of the strings won't be created or printed.(This is only a function by the way).
Code:
Count_chars( char Input[]) {
int i;
for(i = 0; Input[i]; i++) {
if((Input[i] <= 122) &&(Input[i] >= 97)){
printf("Char %c ",Input[i]);
Char[i] = Input[i];

I've a problem with the map construct. I wrote this class in which there are maps:
class Features {
private:
map<const string,GenericFeatureContainer*> featuremap;
map<const string,GenericFeatureContainer*>::iterator it;
int size;
public:
}
And I have the following constructor:
Features::Features() {
map<NULL,NULL> featuremap;
it=NULL;
size=0;
}
Is that correct? otherwise what is the correct syntax?

I am writing code, which reads an input file (280 MB) containing a list of words. I would like to compute
1) total # of words
2) total # of unique/distinct words
3) mean/median/mode of word count (Link)
I managed to get done with 1) and 2), but my program crashes for 3). I am not quite sure whether there are memory issues or some bug in the code.
Code:
#include <iostream>

This code i made, utilizing the type casting construct, isn't outputting what i wanted. The output for 'Dollars' and 'Cents' are returning '0' for both. instead all i want it to do is seperate the two. for example changing the float value of amount to an integer, giving a dollar value.

If I have an integer variable like int a=9 then in the switch case If i write :
switch(a) {
case 4+a: printf("hii");
}
Then why is this statement a compile-time error that variables cannot be used inside a case statement why does the compiler not subtitutes the values in place of the variables.

This code i made is a cent converter from 5 to 95 cents. The problem i'm receiving is when the 'cents' function is sent back to the 'main' function it only prints one line. It seems to just print the first if construct that complies with the statement. Is there anyway i can have this function print multiple cent values? For example if 60 cents was entered it would only print '50c', and i want it to print '50c' and '10c' instead.
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
int x;
void check(int x)
{
if( x < 5)
printf("Less then 5 cannot be calculated
");
else if(x > 95)

I am trying to construct a program without a main function that outputs stars but at the same time outputs the number and a colon after the number but before the number of star. This is the coding i have so far.
void output_stars(int num){
if (num > 0){
cout << "*";
output_stars(num-1)
[Code] ....
The program is working the way it should i just can't figure out how to output the number and a colon. The main function is written as such:
output_stars(1);
output_stars(2);
output_stars(5);
output_stars(3);
output_stars(4);
output_stars(7);
How to get the numbers of the main function to show up with the stars of the previous function.

I'm trying to read a "pointer-based" maze .txt. The first letter in each row corresponds to the room letter...then the letters that follow are North node, East node, South node, and West node respectively. The asterisk indicates an empty room or not a valid option.
Here is what I have come up with, what is happening is after the file is parsed by read_maze it is calling my is_empty function indicating that there is no maze because it doesn't go into the else statement here.
I've attached a sample input file:
maze.txt (130bytes)
Number of downloads: 19
We can't assume the rooms will be in order alphabetically A - Z, We are expecting a maximum of 12 rooms and there is a space between each letter or asterisk.
void Maze::read_maze(string FileName){
string line;
ifstream inStream;
inStream.open(FileName.c_str());
int test = inStream.peek();
int i = 0;
if (!(inStream.fail())){
while (!inStream.eof() && test != EOF){

I just wanted to ask the reason that why is the below code not checking the case -1 while working for the other case values.
#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
int main() {
int i=-1;
switch(i-2) {
[Code] ....
So why in the below code the case -1 doesnt run,when the value evaluated by the switch construct is actually a negative integer constant.

I have begun switching from WinForms to WPF and I'm having a hard time understanding the new concepts. In WinForms, I had a few User Controls, custom drawn using shapes (rectangles, ellipses, etc). They had some unique properties, like "Flashing" (setting this property to True and setting the "Flash Interval" property to 500 would have resulted in the control changing its background color to white and back again, every 0.5 seconds), "Beeping", etc.
I have tried to replicate these controls in WPF/XAML and so far managed to draw the shape. However, when it came to implementing a custom property that would redraw the background color of the rectangle every interval set by user in another property, i got stuck. The property is being set, but it doesn't change the background color. Alternatively, i have tried this method, with the same results (i got it to show in the "Properties" window in Visual Studio, i can set it, it is being stored in XAML, but it doesn't affect the background.
C# code behind:
public struct LCARSColors
{
public static Brush DarkBlue = (Brush)(new BrushConverter().ConvertFrom("#FF3366CC"));
public static Brush LightBlue = (Brush)(new BrushConverter().ConvertFrom("#FF99CCFF"));
public static Brush Pink = (Brush)(new BrushConverter().ConvertFrom("#FFCC99CC"));
[Code] ....
If i use this line (commented in this code sample):
<!--<SolidColorBrush x:Name="MySolidColorBrush" Color="{DynamicResource DarkBlue}" />-->
The background is colored in DarkBlue (as defined). But if i use this line:
<SolidColorBrush x:Name="MySolidColorBrush" Color="{Binding BackgroundColor, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged, Mode=TwoWay}" />
Nothing happens, the rectangle disappears entirely. If i add this to the above line:
FallbackValue=LightYellow
The rectangle is colored in LightYellow, meaning that the property is not accepted and the fallback value is used. Why?

I'm building a pretty basic calculator program that calculates the area of generic shapes (triangles, rectangles, and squares); for some reason though, my program is having troubles as soon as it hits the if/else code in the int main section. When I enter triangle, rectangle, or square, it just spits back out the "That's not one of the options. Please re-enter and try again." error line I created. When I isolate and run just the stuff inside the if/else statements it works great, but why it won't just understand my if (shape == triangle).... .
Code:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
class figure {

double x, y;

I know how to define a shape and attach it to a window as follows:
#include <Simple_window.h>
void cir() { Circle c(Point(100,100),50); }
int main() {
Simple_window win(Point(100,100),600,400, "test");
Rectangle r(Point(100,100),Point(300,200));
win.attach(r);
win.wait_for_botton();
}
But how to define a shape (say a circle by that cir() function which is) outside of the main() function? And how to attach it to be visible on window win?
