About Me

I have always had a strong interest in computers and how applications work, so I recently took it upon myself to start learning C++, HTML, XML and JavaScript. I am still very much a beginner with programming, but I hope to really strengthen my skills…

Hey everyone, I've been working on learning the Win32 API for C++ so that I can start programming windows programs. I haven't run into any issues until last night when I tried to include a menu in my basic window through resources. I'm using Visual C++ Express 2010 which doesn't …

pecet is correct. Also, don't forget to #include <ctime> so that you can use the time() function. -D

Hey all, I am currently working on building a small text-based RPG to practice C++. I am working on a function to load a saved game from information saved in a text file. Below is the code for the function: [code=cplusplus]void getSavedGame(playableCharacter& player1) { int stamina, health, mana, level, strength, …

First, please use code tags for your code. Second, place [code=cplusplus]cin.get();[/code] right before return 0 in your main. That will hold the console window open until the user presses enter. Also, why do you have your drawbar function returning an integer? It seems like it should be a void function... …

Hello kadji.kahn, I agree with everything that Sky Diploma said. In addition, you can shorten up your function a bit. This is what you currently have: [code=cplusplus]int average(int a, int b, int c, int d, int e) { int daverage; daverage = (a+b+c+d+e) / 5; return daverage; } //end average …

It also appears that you have incorrect ranges for your letter grades (which gurudevashu has fixed in his revised code above): [code=cplusplus] else if (c >=79 && c <=70) {cout <<"C" << endl;} else if (c >= 69 && c <=60) {cout << "D" << endl;} else if (c >= …

Hello tomtetlaw, As JugglerDrummer mentioned above, you would use the member access operator "." For more information on the operator and structures in general (including pointers to structures and the member access operator through a pointer "->") you should take a look at the following website: [url]http://cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/structures/[/url] -D

Hello arelius, I would suggest the following tutorial: [url]http://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/[/url] I starting learing C++ off of here before going and reading some books on it. As for practice problems, there is a section on this forum for them: [url]http://www.daniweb.com/forums/thread67837.html[/url] Hope that helps. -D

Hi blahbla, It seems to me that your best bet would be to create a new variable before you start your loop that you use to add all of your random numbers together. I would suggest doing the addition right before the end of your for loop so that every …

Hey, I'm still pretty new to C++, but there are a few comments that I would make regarding mystuff.cpp: 1. You will want to inlude the <ctime> header as that contains the time function you use for seeding your random number generator. 2. It may serve you better for your …

Basing the code off of what firstperson has above, if you want to loop the program, you could use a while loop like so: [code=cplusplus]#include <iostream> using namespace std; int main() { int x=0; float a,b; while(x != 7) { cout << "Hello, please pick a type of problem from …

While I am still new at C++, it seems to me that for your GetEmployeeRec function, you're going to want to pass your EmployeeRec objects to the function as references. i.e.: [code=cplusplus]getEmployeeRec(EmployeeRec& A, EmployeeRec& B)[/code] That way the function can directly manipulate the members of your objects. Also, you have …

I'm still pretty new at C++, but try passing your argument by reference instead of pointer: [code=cplusplus]void foo(int &x) { int y = new int(999); x = y; }[/code] Passing arguments by reference should allow the function to directly manipulate that variable without the need for a return statement.

In order to allow the user to enter new data or quit, you will want to place all of your code after your variable declarations in a while loop. That way, the user can go through the program as many times as he or she wants: [code=cplusplus] #include <iostream> #include …

Hello CD-4+, While I am still pretty new to C++, I believe that the compiler error that you are receiving is due to the fact that you have a semi-colon in your class definition of the meow() function: [code=cplusplus]# include<iostream> using namespace std; class cat { public: int age; int …

You also may run into a problem because you have the variable first declared as a double but set it equal to the function one which returns an integer: [code=cplusplus]int one (int x, int y); double dec, a, first; first = one (6, 8); [/code] -D
