Hi. I wanted to use exceptions to handle error conditions in my code. I think doing that is useful, as it helps to separate "go" paths from error paths. However, a coding guideline has been presented that says "Use conventional error-handling techniques rather than exception handling for straightforward local error processing in which a...

This program compiles fine, but are there any hidden dangers in it, or is it ok? Experiment 1 ################################################## #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <malloc.h> #include <string.h>

what is the difference between objects and pointers?

Q1: int i = 0; char *p = i; Is this assign 0 to p or assigning the value pointed by p to 0? Is this a problem since p has not been initialized, it could point to any place in memory and assign a value to it could cause access violation? Q2: Why might explicit casts on malloc's return value, as in

Hi All, I would like to know when ++i should be used instead of i++ and vice versa. Some code examples would be of help. Does it really matter for assignments? Thanks, Arut

please everybody ,can anyone tell me how to do an infinite loop in C

Hi, I'm wondering why this program does not crash with a segmentation fault: #include <malloc.h> #include <string.h> #include <stdio.h> int main()

Hi, I have a linear singly linked list of 100 elements. I would like to prune it such that only user specified elements (say only the elements 1, 13, 78 and 100 of the original list) survive after pruning. Can somebody show me how to do this ? I am a scientist and not a computer engineer/student. This will help me develop an application...

Hi, Is using // for a comment standard C? Thanks, Joe

Hi Experts, I've just joined this group and want to know something: Is there something similar to smart pointers in C or something to prevent memory leakages in C programs. Regards MotoK

How to use CPPUnit effectively? When I want to use CPPUnit, I always fint it useless and waste my time. I think that's mainly because I don't know how to use CPPUnit effectively. So if somebody here has some experience, please share it to me. And also I expect answers to these questions: 1. Should I write test codes for every member...

Hello everyone. I am sorry for my behaviour on this newsgroup. Particularly, I want to apologise to the newsgroup regulars who have put up with my childish behaviour. The truth is, I'm a nineteen year old man who hasn't fully grown up into an adult yet. It took recent events in my life to open my eyes to the way I am living my life. I think...

i wrote the following program to calculate factorial: #include<stdio.h> #include<iostream.h> void main() { int i,n; long int p=1; // or long double p=1; for exponential result which I don't want. cout<<"Enter No. ";

Apologies if this is in the FAQ. I looked, but didn't find it. In a particular program the input read from a file is supposed to be: + 100 200 name1 - 101 201 name2 It is parsed by reading the + character, and then sending the remainder into fscanf() like

I am developing a compression program. Is there any way to write a data to file in the form of bits, like write bit 0 then bit 1 and then bit 1 and so on ....

Sorry for this very dumb question, but I've clearly got a long way to go! Can someone please help me pass an array into a function. Here's a starting point. void TheMainFunc() { // Body of code... TCHAR myArray; DoStuff(myArray);

I was given this problem for extra credit and I am just stuck ! BTW - I am not asking for source code and I am not asking anyone to do my homework as I do want to learn .. I just need a hint or two to get moving and I need to know if what I have written so far is leading me in the right direction ~ Ok - The problem is to find out how many...

Hello, I wanna make a calculator where i can give the input in one word. for example : (15*3) / (2+3) I think i most read this in as a string and then share it in different parts to do the calculation. But i don't now how tho start with it. Can somebody help me. Thanks in advanced.

Hi All, I wrote the following to print an integer in its string representation for base -36 to 36. Please comment on this code. #include <iostream> #include <string> using std::abs; using std::cout;

Hi I have put together a document explaining most extensions of lcc-win32, why they were done, why they could be useful, and a documentation of the string/container library that uses those extensions. This document is not finished but I would appreciate your feedback. jacob
