C :: Way For User To Stop Entering Values

Mar 6, 2015

Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
/*

You are to write a program that will allow a user to enter infinite numbers (greater than zero)(One number at a time). You must have a way for the user to stop entering values.Once the user stops, you will immediately display the following:

The lowest number entered is:
The highest number entered is:
The number of values entered is:
The average of the numbers entered is:
*/

main() {
int userNumber=0, sum=0, count=0, highNum=0, lowNum=0, lastNum = 0;
double average;
printf("Enter a number greater than 0: (Enter -1 to stop)
");
scanf_s("%i", &userNumber);

[Code]....

My program outputs everything I need except the lowest number entered. I have been spending a considerable amount of time on this problem to no avail.

C++ :: Entering Valid User Input?

Mar 19, 2013

How can I write my simple program so if the user enters an invalid number, The program won’t exit? I know I am supposed to use a if (cin) or if (!cin),

But I don’t know where in the program or how I should use it. Right now my Program looks kind of like this:

If (number > 1 && number < 1001)
Go through some function loops
Else
Cout << “invalid number”;

I need to write it so when the user enters an invalid number, the program would Keep asking for the right number until it's given.

C++ :: Write Program Where User Will Keep Entering Data Until Pressing Ctrl D

Mar 1, 2013

I'm trying to write a program where the user will keep entering data until pressing control + D. Then the it will display the mean, smallest number, and largest number.

Here are three samples of my program running.

Sample 1
Enter the price for stock 1: $ 10
Enter the price for stock 2: $ 1.555
Enter the price for stock 3: $ 3.648

[Code].....

As you can see in Sample 1, the program runs correctly. The largest number was 20 and the lowest number was 1.555. But in Sample 2, the program shows min as 15.500, where it should be showing 15.000 and Sample 3, the program shows min as 110.000 when it should be showing 55.564.

Here's the code.

#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;

[Code].....

C/C++ :: Tic Tac Toe - Program Not Stop To Read In User Input

Jan 18, 2014

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:

C++ :: How To Stop Outputting Data Based On A User Input

Sep 27, 2013

how to stop outputting data based on a user input. The text file is as follows:

1. a
2. b
3. c

and the code I'm using is as follows:

C :: How To Stop User From Inputting Negative Number Into Unsigned Long

Feb 3, 2013

here's one more thing id like to do to make the input even better able to handle user error, but im not sure if its possible or at least easy. I need the function to return a large positive number. As of right now, it can handle users entering characters, but what if the user enters a negative number? is there a way to check to see if what is coming in is negative before the sign gets lost in conversion to unsigned"ness"?

Code:
unsigned long getNum(char prompt[80])
{
unsigned long darts;
printf("%s", prompt);
while((scanf("%lu", &darts)) != 1)

C# :: (Grid) Stop User From Clicking Past A Certain Amount Of Block

May 21, 2014

So, I'm attempting to create a grid on the screen, and to do so, I've implemented a multidimensional array of Rectangles. When the program starts, I use a for loop to increase the x and y coordinates to form the grid.

public Form1() {
InitializeComponent();
for (int x = 0; x < 12; x++) {
for (int y = 0; y < 12; y++) {

[Code] ....

My issue is trying to figure out when the user has clicked on a rectangle, and furthermore, which rectangle in the array that he/she has clicked on. As I will change the border to red when given the correct rectangle.

I'm using Visual Studio 2008, and here is my code so far.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;

[Code] .....

I'm making this into a real game, with classes and all.

Visual C++ :: Terminate A Thread When User Push Stop Button

Nov 16, 2012

I have a thread with a while(1) loop in it. When the user push the stop button I would like that thread to end.

I thought about creating a bool and checking its value periodically in the thread and when I push the stop button I change the value of the bool for that the thread breaks out of the loop and finishes.

C/C++ :: Compare Values Stored In First Array To User Inputted Values In Second Array

Oct 19, 2014

Goal: Write a program that compares the values stored in the first array to the user inputted values in the second array.

In order to fix this error: [URL]...

I had to change my array initialization to one with a star in front of it:

char a1[]={"a","d","b","b","c","b","a","b","c","d","a","c","d","b","d","c","c","a","d","b"};
to:
char *a1[]={"a","d","b","b","c","b","a","b","c","d","a","c","d","b","d","c","c","a","d","b"};

I also changed my 2nd array to one with a star in front of it: char *a2[20];

What does this mean exactly? Putting a star in front of an array?

Also, I am now getting an "unhandled exception" when I try to get input for my 2nd array:

cin>>a2[i];

C++ :: Error Entering A Function?

Jul 2, 2013

I have no error compiling, but running my project it stops before entering a function and debugging I have an error about Segmentation fault. The function:

Code:

Mat logGabor(matriz filter,Mat filter,double r_o,double theta_o,double sigma_theta,
matriz radius,matriz theta,int cols,int rows,double sigma_r,int *padSize){
Mat rpad;
int k=*padSize;
printf("Welcome to the function"); //Here the error
...

More info: I created the matriz as : typedef double** matriz;
and a createmat function that give back a double** and in this function I allocate space for matriz and works. In the main:

Code:
Mat chr-Rpad[4][5]; //chrOrient=4;chrScales=5
for(int i_or=1;i_or<chrOrient;i_or++){
for(int i_sc=1;i_sc<chrScales;i_sc++){
//some math calculation
chrRpad[i_or-1][i_sc-1]=abs(logGabor(filter,imftt2,r_o,theta_o,sigma_theta,radius,theta,cols,rows,sigma_r,padSize));

C :: Entering Characters Into A String Pointer

Feb 8, 2013

1. The debugger shows that the characters are entered into the word pointer, and when a punctuation or space character is encountered, I terminate the string with a ''. But when I use puts to print the string, garbage is printed. Why is this?

2. Also, if I don't allocate memory for word the compiler gives a warning about it being used uninitialised. But I didn't allocate memory for the array of pointers(words), and the compiler didn't give any warnings. Whats the difference between a pointer and an array of pointers?

Code:

// wordcount.c - count words.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <ctype.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

C++ :: Preventing The User From Feeding (Cin) Unexpected Values

May 2, 2013

I'm just starting c++, doing tutorials. So many tutorials. I've noticed that the tutorials all assume the same thing: That the user will always do exactly as he/she is told when asked for input.

Example: "Please enter your age:"

Now, the example code might be expecting the user to type some numbers, but what if the user feels like typing out the letters of their age?

"I am ninety five thank you very much, sonny"

I could specify to the user that I only want the information in number form, but what if the user is just being a dick?

What if the user types, "none o' yer business."?

So... how to approach "fool-proofing" player input?

C++ :: Can't Store Different Values Into Vector By User Input

May 4, 2013

I can`t seem to store multiple values into my vector when a user keys in an input. Lets say a user inputs 1,2 as the first set and later keys in 3,4.

My vector gets overridden by 3 and 4. I'm trying to pass these values into a function to store them into a vector and use them in the function.

Below is my code snippet

int reconstructSecret(int x, int y) {
int getX,getY;
getX=x;
getY=y;
vector<int> myXCordVec;
vector<int> myYCordVec;

C/C++ :: Finding Sum Of Values Entered By User In While-loop?

Keep track of the sum of values entered (as well as the smallest and the largest) and the number of values entered. When the loop ends, print the smallest, the largest, the number of values,and the sum of values. Note that to keep the sum, you have to decide on a unit to use for that sum; use cm.
