sizeof will calculate the size of a data item or type. Just redefining it as
a macro will achieve nothing except to obfusucate your code. Ask what your
teacher is looking for here.

Hi, I know virtually nothing about creating Macros in Access. I would appreciate some help in creating a Macro or Macros that automatically run(s) 14 Queries (three Make Table Queries, and 11 Append Queries) when the Database is first opened, and then again anytime I invoke the Macro (somehow) after the database is already open. The latter function is useful, because the queries must be rerun every time data is added, deleted, or...

in K&R Chapter 6.3 it mentions two methods to calculate NKEYS. and points out the first one which is to terminate the list of initializers with a null pointer, then loop along keytab until the end is found is less efficient than using sizeof operator , since size of the array is completely determined at compile time. i don't quite understand this. Could anyone explain to me in detail ?

Hi, I have these string data: str_data1, str_data2, str_data3, which capture some value after a routine process A. Then I would like to write (append) these 3 string values into a text file each time after routine process A, the text file is named "mytext.dat" in following format with "#####" as separator. The maximum entries of them is 5. When reaching the fifth entry, it will delete the very first entry.

I have a macro that can determine the number of elements in an array type. It is defined as follows #define ARRAY_SIZE_NOGC(x) (sizeof(x) / sizeof(x) This works with unmanaged array types, but not with pointers, since the size of a pointer is always the same and not the size of the data it points to. Obviously this doesn't work with managed types, which are all refered to by pointers. I could define the macro to handle managed arrays as...

Hi experts, I am new to linux and all the type definitions are driving me mad. What is the best way to check a type definition in linux? When I use man page to check some function definition, I may come across new types. How do you guys look up their definitions? I tried to lookup ssize_t, what I do is trace (grep in glibc source code) to 'typedef __ssize_t ssize_t;', then '__STD_TYPE __SSIZE_T_TYPE __ssize_t;' then '#define...

I'm trying to come up with a fully-portable macro for supplying memset with an unsigned char rather than an int. I'm going to think out loud as I go along. . . I'll take a sample system before I begin: CHAR_BIT == 16 sizeof(short) == sizeof(int) == 1 Assume none of the integer types have padding bits Sign-magnitude

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
