You are the driver on a bus. The bus starts off empty. At the first stop, three people get on. At the second stop, 6 people get on. At the third stop, 2 people get off and one person gets on. At the fourth stop, 4 people get off and …

Nice... How do you change the background color? Pretty please? And is there a way to make the program appear fullscreen when started up?

Quote: "...my computer says it doesn't have i0stream and several other headers..." Did you maybe put in i0stream like you did in your message? Stupid question, but it only takes iostream.

[QUOTE=woooee;602975] May or may not be true, but the QWERTY keyboard came about because typewriter companies in the early 1800s wanted their salesmen to be able to type something quickly to show how efficient it was. They could rapidly type the word "typewriter" because all of the letters were placed …

How many Chelmites (fools) does it take to change a lightbulb? Eight. One to screw in the new bulb, and seven to find some light to put in it. How many imbeciles does it take to change a lightbulb? Five. One to hold the lightbulb and four to rotate him. …

I had a sub in High School frosh bio class who kept telling us that viruses were alive. Fun fact: According to the Mayans, the world will end the day before I reach the legal drinking age in my home country of USA! USA! USA! Other fun fact: I don't …

:!: Daaaaaaaaang! That's pretty cool! But good thing it closes it too. I have a friend who [I]twice[/I] had the power cut out while the CD tray was open, and he naturally stumbled into the open tray, ripping it out of the computer--both times!!! Bad luck, huh?

:-/ Is there any function in MouseListener that returns the x- and/or y-coordinates of the cursor relative to the origin of a JPanel which currently has the focus? ¡Ayúdenme, por favor!

[INLINECODE]cin.ignore()[/INLINECODE] I always learned is used to pause the program until the user strikes the enter key. (This makes it useful for getting data displayed with [INLINECODE]cout[/INLINECODE] because without such a pause statement, the program would quit when done.) cin.get() I am not familiar with, but I suspect that it …

Pull the other one! :rolleyes: Child genii aren't as common as some might think! You sure this wasn't some early April Fool's prank that the BBC made up???

Save Trees: Plant a Bush Back in Texas

Why aren't the people who arranged this study chewing out, not Google, but people who leave their computers on all night so they don't have to boot them up in the morning? Or if they do, why don't they publish findings about [I]that?[/I]:confused:

I'm personally a PC gamer & big-time Star Wars fan. Most unfair thing ever is happening. Lucasarts is about to release [U]The Force Unleashed[/U], the greatest SW game ever, on many platforms that DO NOT INCLUDE THE PC!!! Nooooooooooo!

Anyone?...Anyone?...Bueller?

By the time you finish reading this, I will be obso%&l%&e%&t%&e Please consult the manual to find out what is broken today. C++ no work, i do basic only, sry Press Ctrl-Alt-F4-Delete to access the Help file (Borrowing from Scott Adams on that one.) Other computers need viruses in order …

Wow. I'd been wondering about that too... Thank you abar_sow for asking the question and Ezzaral for answering it.:icon_smile:

Youtube "Larry Goes to the Market". It's a truly first-class short film MADE ENTIRELY from the footage of that dude. It made me LOL.

Why write a Hello World program? We all know how...Except noobs who need to [INLINECODE]{"read a book", "take a tutorial", "figure out which is the mouse and which is the keyboard"}[/INLINECODE] before writing code.

This can be used for plotting radioactive decay of an unlimited* number of elements, decaying into each other. *Limited only by memory and user attention span.

For those of you who live at home, run this on your parents' computer fullscreen, blue background, white font. Then put the mouse over the block in the upper lefthand corner, and enjoy the show.:twisted:

This code will let you play Battleship against the computer (bad graphics, I know) for a while, upon which it quits without so much as an error message. Could an experienced coder look this over and tell me why? Thanks. Venomlash :?:

Coooooooooooooooooooooooool.

The good thing about the brains option is that this is someone you can be friends with as well as go out with; "this, that and the other", for those of you who watch Seinfeld.

I am looking to buy a new PC, but have no idea what to get. I want a desktop that is suitable for both gaming and work, and preferably not a Dell. Does anyone have recommendations for me vis a vis make and/or model? Thank you.

Does anyone know a good way to get a bitmap (or other picture file format) and put it on the screen using OpenGL??? I mean, that kinda thing is hard enough in the sissy, user-friendly syntax of JAVA. Anyone?...anyone?...Bueller?

d00d, this is the Geek's Lounge. Ask in one of the [U]programming[/U] forums.

I will give you one hint, you moocher of code... JPanel WRITE YOUR CODE!!!

Like the title sez, does anyone know a good way to take an Image and convert it into a BufferedImage???

Yep, fun pranks. What is the funniest situation involving one of the two that you have personally been in? I'll start: I Rickrolled the fiendish principal of my middle school...at the school office and then at his home number. I used these two sites: [URL="http://www.prankdialer.com/rickroll.php"]http://www.prankdialer.com/rickroll.php[/URL] and [URL="http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y120/joeyblue/duckroll.jpg"]http://callprank.com/[/URL]

How about making a thread against that and the atrocities in Tibet...basically reprimand China

I am writing a applet-based mini-game. Whenever I open up the HTML document with Internet Explorer to test what I have so far, it just says "Java Applet Load failed".When I do the same with the AT&T browser, I get a blank web page with a big grey rectangle (or …

Evolution...how about that classic example of those finches Darwin discovered??? And if an omniscient creator (whose name rhymes with Todd) *had* created everything, would He have allowed humans to progress enough to question His divine postulate??? EnderX, I respect your right to free speech, but this is about as dumb …

Does anyone know how to draw an image or play a sound from file? I imagine there is (are) a library (libraries), but I can't find them...

I am but a lowly C++ dabbler, but I can tell you this: you will want some sort of class to contain the attributes of each stock. But A-Drag is right; you need to pound out some code (even if you're not sure about it) in order for us to …

I cannot link GL Utility Toolkit (lack know-how), so I need a way using only [ICODE]gl/gl.h[/ICODE] and [ICODE]windows.h[/ICODE] to get keyboard input. Help please!

What I would do is this instead of the "read" loop: [CODE]int tmax, tmin; tmax=temp[0]; tmin=temp[0]; for(int i=0; i<31; i++){ if(temp[i]>tmax){ tmax=temp[i]; } if(temp[i]<tmin){ tmin=temp[i]; } } cout<<"The maximum temperature is "<<tmax<<".\n"; cout<<"The minimum temperature is "<<tmin<<".\n";[/CODE] Do you see where I'm going with this?

I am but a humble part-time hobbyist programmer, but I have found Dev-C++ to work very well. It pwns.

I am a high school junior. Last year in my English (as in lit, not ESL) class, four or five students were caught cheating on a quiz. Not only did they all have *very* similar wording on some of the short answer questions (they all sat near each other), they …

How about the old "Press any key" joke? I wonder if people ever did call in looking for the "any" key???

Stick it in a computer at work or school and leave it for people to wonder about. Come back next week and see it's still there. Make like the Mythbusters team would and fire it out of a flintlock rifle using TNT dust as gunpowder. :) nav33n, nice tagline.

Dubya has no sense of humor, so it matches nicely with his lack of senses of: ethics, charity, secular government, and last but not least, the common type of sense. This further proves my point that the US has gotten very few good things out of Texas; Lovie Smith (Bears!) …

I have a POS Dell Dimension 4600. It recently went into Krakatoa mode (i.e., whenever I try to start it up it <explodes>). The Windows XP system we had on there proved to be beyond repair (whenever we try to "repair install" the blasted thing just reboots repeatedly until shut …

I'm new to C++ graphics, and a friend tipped me off to OpenGL. I'm currently trying to work with the GL Utility Toolkit ([INLINECODE]#include gl\glut.h[/INLINECODE]), which I had to download from the web. Due to all the download sites being intended for people with older versions of Windows (I think), …

Really just sick that a judge would lock him up for almost half a lifetime for what is in essence shoplifting. It's like the Jena case where a few kids were accused of attempted murder for a fight. The difference is that in this case it's idiocy rather than racism...

How do you define operators in JAVA? (Can you???) [prettyplease] help? [/prettyplease]

YYZ by Rush, or any of the Beatles' early songs; too close to tell.

Hi, I took a course in JAVA and learned about exceptions...I'm not sure how to throw and catch in C++. Can I get some help please???

Whoa whoa whoa!!! This is what we do [I]apart[/I] from computers! Honestly... P.S. I launch rockets:twisted:

For those of you who also code in JAVA*: Does anyone know of anything in C++ that is at all like paintComponent or the Graphics class? HALP! *ROFLwaffles to those who do
