Hi All,
In an application I write, I need to have some mapping service, where I can
select two locations, which shall calculate the distance and mainly the
time(could be approximate) to travel from one place to another. Is there any
ASP scripts or DLLs(APIs) provided or sold by any third party mapping
service?
Have anyone come across such requirments? Your experience and suggestions
will help me much.
Many thanks and Regards,
Benny

Although it's not exactly what you need there is an article on Store
Locator at <http://www.aspfaq.com/show.asp?id=252 7>. I would think if you
knew the longitude and latitude for each place, you could figure the
distance and therefore travel time between the two points.
This brings back memories of "word problems" where you had to figure out
how fast train A was going in order to find out at what time train B was
going to cross it at some location. I _hated_ "word problems" when I was a
kid, and now I have to use them all the time. Good thing I paid attention.

Thanks Adrienne.
I have done a restraunt search with zip code and longitude& latitude, But
not with mapping. (Click the locations in map and do the rest). Mapquest
provides that API, but do not know if that is customizable to my need.
I like your word problems example. You are right, many which we hate in
childhood will be used when we are grown up. :-)

You can calculate a straight line distance using a zip code to
longtitude/latitude conversion. You probably will have to buy the
database. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

I have successfully created a zip code radius search, but the performance is
unacceptable.
I have two tables. The first is 52K zip codes w/lat and long. The second is
3K national business addresses.
Using the zip code 10010, it takes almost 60 seconds to return 122
businesses within a 25 mile radius. This slowdown is almost entirely due to
the query radius distance formula.

What's so special about istream_iterator that prevents me from determining the distance between two of them.
In the code below, search() does return a foundAt iterator that points to the location in question, but distance() still always returns zero.
However reading a chunk of file into a vector and searching the vector produces an iterator that distance() will measure properly.
Evidently , it is not possible to measure the distance ...

I wish to find the first occurance of some sequence in an existing

a stream from another process. Anyway,...

how would i get the distance and angle between 2 points on the screen.
For example:
what is the distance between (100,50) and (250,70)
what i really wanna do is see how far the current mouse position is
from a given object and what the angle is between them.
Any help please?
Thanks,

Hi,
Anyone know if the Standard has anything to say about the time complexity
of size() for std::set?
I need to access a set's size (/not/ to know if it is empty!) heavily
during an algorithm and was thus wondering whether I'd be better off
tracking the size "manually" or whether that'd be pointless.
Thanks,

In the C++ standard sec 23.1.2 table 69 it says that erase(q) where q is
a pointer to an element can be done in amortized constant time.
I guess that is not worst case since std::set is practically a red-black
tree where insert/delete takes O(lg n) time. Or are there some other
explanation for this complexity?

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
