Writing a small app?

Chrisjc

So I have to write this small program / app / scripts whatever you want to call it... It's like a review for linux... using Veditor... however I never even learned it! lol

So maybe someone can help me out here...
This is what I have to do

1. Print to the screen "Hello World!".
I can do part one thats simple

#Show Hello World!
echo "Hello World!"

2. Ask the user for their name. If their name is Bob, display to the screen "Hello Bob!". If their name is not Bob, display "Stranger Danger!"

3. Ask the user for a number between 1 and 10. If they ask for a number outside that range, ask for the number again. When the user inputs a number between 1 and 10, have the computer display the number 1 to N (N being the number the person entered. Example: If they input the number 4, the computer will display 1 2 3 4.

The other 2 parts are loop and if statements but I don't know veditor I have no idea where to start... Any help or insight would be great!

Thank you,

Chris

Looking at its small, simply objects was an education for me. What I was wondering, when I rewrote my cms from procedural code to OO was how to avoid end up have every class called by ever other? I was writing massive objects where every object needed every...

Hi all, I hope this is the right place for this post, apologies if it is not. I am trying to write a program that creates an input file for a dispersion model. The model is expecting a Fortran "unformatted" binary file in big-endian. However, my program is written in dotnet and I'd like to avoid writing and then calling a Fortran program to do this one task. My question is:

Hi, I have an application where i want to write data to a file, the data is being sent from an external source. I know the total size of the data and then i retrieve the data in small segments from the source. This data is written to file in a loop. My question. 1. Will it be useful to increase the file size initially then seek to 0 and start writing to file. whether there will be any performance improvements

I'd like to get some feedback on the issue of storing data out to disk and where to store it. I've never been in a production environment in programming so you'll have to bear with me... My question is about storing data in a database. Yes I understand that you can link to a database in your program and read and write to the database etc etc. Well, that's all find and dandy but what if the person you're writing the application for...

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. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
