[Dev-C++] Problems with for loop

[Paul S. <Ps...@le...>]

Thanks Jason for the suggestions.

I  did try the for statement with various combinations, using "--", =
"-=3D", greater and less then but it still never enters the loop, it =
does set i to the value of filesize and even using size(), it only =
initialises i and then skips the loop.

I have tried to run a simple loop that steps from X to zero but this =
never enters the loop either

I keep playing around with and thanks again .

Perhaps you didn't check the option compile for win32 (no console) in
the compiler options. For a couple of other messages I read it seems a
frequent error.

Re: [Dev-C++] palindrome base prgm

[Jason H. <jas...@bt...>]

You can choose to manipulate the values as strings, reversing the string and
converting it to an integer to perform the addtion. You may need to write
your own conversion function as I'm not sure if C/C++ has a standard one for
differing bases (radix). You can then convert back to a string (in the same
base) and perform the manipulation again until you get something like normal
== reverse?

Another way is to make an array with an integer for each digit. That way you
can can just calculate the exponent for each possition according to it's
base, doing it forward and backward, and then break the result back down
into individual digits. i.e.

19 = 1 * 10^2 + 9 * 10^1
91 = 9 * 10^2 + 1 * 10^1

and

110 / 10^0 % 10 = 0
110 / 10^1 % 10 = 1
110 / 10^2 % 10 = 1

which are the individual digits of 110 etc...

It seems more complicated, but may be easier than writing your own
conversion from string to base 12 (or whatever) and back. I may do more work
later.

Jason.

PS: You may want to check my math as I just did it quickly, and it could be
done better.
PPS: '^' represents  'raised to the power of', but doesn't exist in C/C++,
and % is the modulus operator.

Re: [Dev-C++] palindrome base prgm

[Jason H. <jas...@bt...>]

A quick note. The C++ equivalent of sscanf and sprintf is the 'stringstream'
class and it's related classes (istringstream, and  ostringstream). Note
that 'stringstream' is the current standard name, but previously it was
known as 'strstream'. Once you have created the buffer you can operate on it
in much the same way as with cout and cin (using << and >>). It's header is
<sstream> (I think?).

Re: [Dev-C++] Problems with a for loop

[Jason H. <jas...@bt...>]

Using C style for loops isn't as easy as the more traditional =
FOR..TO..DO.. or FOR..TO..STEP..DO.. style of loops. The basic C for =
loop is constructed:

for(initialiser; condition; change) {  ...do...  }

I won't go into detail, but the main thing you have to remember is that =
the condition should remain true until the ending condition is met. If =
the condition isn't true to start with then the loop won't go. In you =
loop you have:

 // Add line numbers:
  for(int i =3D filesize; i < 0; i - 1)
    cout << i << ": " << v[i] << endl;

Assuming filesize is some positive integer then, you are in effect =
trying to see if filesize is smaller-than zero, which it won't be, and =
so the condition evaluates to false and no loop takes place. Another =
error in you code is the change section, where you are trying to count =
down on i with: i - 1; however in C/C++ this is not a complete statement =
(not technically true, but you know what I mean). What you probably =
meant is i-- (or --i, doesn't matter in this case). The post- and pre- =
increment and decrement operators are fairly unique in C/C++ in that =
they modifiy the value that you are working with as well as returning a =
result. Normally in most statements when you perform a calculation you =
need to assign the result of the calculation to something, another =
variable. Your statment calculates i - 1, but then discards the value. =
What you may have wanted was i =3D i - 1; where you reassign the value =
back into itself with the change. Equivalent is i -=3D 1; or as noted =
i--;

So what you actualy want is:

for(int i =3D filesize; i > 0; i--)

As for the validity of doing it in that way I'll leave it up to you, but =
here are some more observations I have made.

It is important to ensure that you are using the right comparison and =
start values (hint!). In this version we counted down from filesize to =
1. In an array you have to remember that the first element starts at 0 =
and goes up to its length - 1, in fact the vector class has a member =
function 'size()' which will return the value you are calculating in =
filesize.

A common error in coding like this is to overrun or underrun a loop by =
1, and it is hard to notice when you have as errors caused by this =
aren't normally catastrophic, but subtle and hard to trace.

Also I notice that the for loop you are using would print the contents =
of the array in reverse. It is more common to want to walk forward =
through an array, but it depends on the situation, for forward you could =
use:

for(int i =3D 0; i < v.size(); i++)....

The code you supplied appears to have a few syntax errors in it, so I =
assume the code you have been using isn't exactly the same. The while =
block is missing its closing bracket '}', and the 'filesize' variable is =
never declared i.e. int filesize =3D 0; There may be others.

Hope this helps, Jason.

The only parse error I see is that you didn't enclose each line that had a "

DEFPUSHBUTTON   "&OK",IDOK,174,18,50,14"

Re: [Dev-C++] circular linked list

[Jason H. <jas...@bt...>]

Hi,

When I ran your code I didn't get an infinite loop and it appeared to
terminate without any problems, but after a little work I did find a few
potential problems. Some are to do with memory allocation and deallocation,
which you still haven't mastered. However the mistake that could be the
cause of your problem is that you aren't using counter. When you count off
until your next victim in the for loop you are looping to 'number' when it
should be 'counter'.

As is my habit I have rewritten what you gave me and come up with something
that I believe is neater (attached). Pay particular attention to the
handling of the pointers, and note also that I don't use any references or
redundant pointers (i.e. one and two) cos they aren't needed. You may want
them though, so it's up to you.

Hope this helps, Jason.

[Dev-C++] dialog box creation error

I am trying to create a new diaolog window by I always got this error:

C:\DEV-C_~1\BIN\windres: C:\\MEUSDO~1\\PROJETOS\\WINDOW~1\\RSRC.RC:21: parse error


The code is:

The line that is getting the error is where "STYLE"   is written. 

I tried to use the rresource editor and I got the same error. Is it a bug?

Get the number as a string, check it and reverse it and then convert it
to number. I am still studying C++ so i do not know if it provides some

[chromatonus 7. <chr...@ho...>]

hi, I am writing a prgm that takes a number (like 19), and its base, (10 in 
this case), and perform the following operation until a palindrome is 
obtained:

add the reverse of 19
19+91 = 110
add the reverse of 110
110 + 11 = 121....a palindrome,
and the prgm should print out the 121.

I think there are several caveats:

numbers, because the input would be like A32 for example.
And how to reverse the number and check to see if it's a palindrome, and

Re: [Dev-C++] reg-Knight's tour problem

[Brian M. <str...@ho...>]

Wow.  For someone who is new to programming, you sure can pound out some 
serious code.  I think the biggest problem you have with this program is 
that the algorithm is too complex (i'm not exactly sure what algorithm it is 
you are working with, it just seems self-evident).  There is a trick to the 
knight's tour quandary that lends itself to a very simple algorithm.


The sure-fire way (has not failed my yet) to make it through the Knight's 
Tour completely without getting stuck is to always move to one of the spaces 
(out of a max of 8) which has the lowest "escape value."  A square's escape 
value is simply the number of squares that the knight can legally move from 
after landing on that square.  Here is an example of all the escape values 
on the board for the first few moves of the knight's tour:

                           2 3 4 4 4 4 3 2

If you keep moving the knight accross the board in this manner, going to the 
square with the lowest escape value, you will eventually complete the 
knights tour.


So, the algorithm for the knights tour is simply:

while the knight's tour is not complete:

find all next possible squares to move to
find the square with the lowest "escape value"
move there

loop


Don't ask me why this works, i just know it does.

  Where are i, j defined? Strangely it compiles in MINGW32!!!! (compiler
  defect).

i, j are defined in class knight:

  class knight{
    int chess[8][8],location[65][10],denied[64];
    int row_loc,pos,i,j;                  <-- HERE
  
    public:
    knight();
    void assignment(void);
    int value(int);
    void refresh(void);
    int append(int ,int);
  };


  >      refresh();
  >      pos=value(j+(8*i));
  >      i=pos/8;
  >      j=pos%8;

  >      assignment(); 


  // Recursion never ends!

Since it is tail recursion it could be done in a while loop - once you figure out the exit condition ... while(1) is not good either.

Re: [Dev-C++] Clarification on HTML and digest formats (opinion)

[carlos D. M. <cg...@wo...>]

Sincerely, I prefer HTML and plain text, is as I send  messages.
When I send only plain I receive the message individually as when html,
but the paragraphs are written in only a line, and I have to use the
horizontal scroll bar, which is somehow annoying for me.
Another reason is that with individual messages (in nestcape, which is
what I use) if I try to delete the pieces of the message I am not
interested in (this is not bad using of 'in'?), it doesn't delete it, it
deletes all the message to the trash, so if I want store one of the
messages I must store all the others, and if I am interested in many
like that it lead to a wasting of memory, and uncomfort for search the
message I want read again. With this format, messages come individually,
I can see what message is the one I want read again (perhaps if the
amount become big I again need search the same as with all messages
together, so then it's not a difference), and I can store only the
messages I am interested in, and delete all the otherssaving some
memory.

RE: [Dev-C++] Clarification on HTML and digest formats

[Ioannis V. <no...@ya...>]

I saw that even with html it is easily to read them since they are
separated in message 1, message 2, e.t.c. sections. Or am i wrong?

Re: [Dev-C++] Clarification on HTML and digest formats

[Jason H. <jas...@bt...>]

When I first started getting this list I used the digest format, but had a
similar problem so I switched to individual mails. I think that when the
digest is made it tends to mangle the text in HTML messages and makes it so
the e-mail browser can't read it properly.

If you are willing to go to the individual format then you can get Outlook
(assuming that's what you use?) to redirect the mail to a different folder
that you can set up, by using a message rule. Just create a rule that says
something like:

Apply this rule after the message arrives
Where the To line contains 'dev...@li...' or
'dev...@so...'
    or Where the CC line contains 'dev...@li...' or
'dev...@so...'
Move it to the Dev-C++ folder

... which is what I use.

This is a useful technique for anyone who recieves a lot of mail they have
subscribed to, i.e. I also get ZDNet newsletters, IBM developer works stuff,
etc... and it all automatically goes to it's own folder in outlook. I
imagine that most e-mail clients will have some ability for applying rules,
and they aren't just to get rid of spam.

Jason.

The list server sends a bunch of emails whenever it feels it has enough
emails to send (haven't worked out the paramters on this particular one!).

[Dev-C++] Clarification on HTML and digest formats

[Jonathan T. <jt...@it...>]

Dear all,
           Just to help those who don't understand about the HTML/NonHTML issue, and about digest formats.   A digest format is where the list server bundles up a bunch of messages sent to the list, and then sends this bunch of emails as *one* complete email to my inbox.  This saves having my mailbox overflowed with many individual messages, and also gives a quick way to scan what topics are covered, to see if there are any interesting mails to read.  The list server sends a bunch of emails whenever it feels it has enough emails to send (haven't worked out the paramters on this particular one!).  

Below I have cut and pasted a *complete* digest email I received a little while back.  Hopefully your email reader hasn't tried to be super smart and render the HTML code rather than just display it raw.  This, as far as digests go, is not too bad - many posts are in plain text.  But yours, Daniel Glenfield is actually in HTML funnily enough.  

Well hopefully you can see why it is so annoying.  Please, find the option in your email program that sets it to send *plain-text* only, and use it!

Thanks,
Jonathan.


P.S. Sorry to send this rather long email to those who understand and observe the netiquette!

As you said "C++ provides all the paradigms and facilities both high
level and low level,..." which I think is actualy a reason for not
learning C++ straight off. Also is the fact that C++ is a hybrid
language in that it can operate as both a structured language and an OOP
language, or a bit of both. When learning an approach it's important
that the learner is not confused by the features of a language, and is
kept on a 'tight leash' so to say.
=20
  Another thing that C and C++ does is to expose pointers and references
more than most languages, as it is a middle level language. It would be
better to start with high level language which doesn't confuse complete
newbies with such things. I think pointers are one of the harder
concepts that most learning programmers have to get thier heads around
at some point, but not right at the beginning.
=20
=20

In C++ there is no need to use pointers or references. For simple tasks
you can use the provided facilities without bothering for low level
stuff: vectors, strings, cin, cout, e.t.c.. If you need to use pointers
then you are dealing with advanced concepts not being able to implement
them with a simpler language anyway. Also there is no need to learn C!

=20
=20
=20
As for C++ being the *best* language, it's a matter of point of view,
but I wouldn't say that any language is the best, much the same that any
spoken language is the best. When approaching a development you choose
the one that is right at the time. An additional benefit of learning
Pascal (or some other language) is that you can write on your CV
(Resume) that you can program in Pascal (or whatever). I believe that
Cobol programmers are very much in demand these days.
=20
=20

Knowing C i bought a Pascal book and learned it in 2 days. And this
because C's abilities are a superset of Pascal abilities (after all the
most Pascal compilers are written in C). After finishing with C++ i
think i can learn any programming language of any of C++'s supported
paradigms in the same time frame.
=20
=20
C++ is not the "best language". It is the "best general purpose
programming language". Or if you do not like this, it is the dominant
general purpose programming language.  [:)]   According to IDC, in 2001 the
1st in use programming language was C++ & C (mainly C++), 2nd was Visual
Basic and then the others.
=20
I do not underestimate the other languages and their followers but i am
just saying the facts. After all if C++ wasn't the best i would not
study it in the first place. I wasn't forced to learn C++, i chose to
learn it after checking the facts.

Ive been using Dev-C++4 for at leats 2 months now. Ive been programming 
OpenGL/ WIN32 with Dev-C++4.But When I try to texture Map with it it dont 
show My texture. Even when I download a sample from a site it dont show the 
texture on the object. My system specs are 512MB of RAM, 1.6GIGZ in speed, a 
nVidia TNT 2 M64 32MB of RAM AGP graphics card, WINDOWS XP. So why doesnt it 
supports Texture Mapping and do anybody else has this same problem and how 
did you fix it.

Subject: [Dev-C++] Re: What lang. to learn first.

Hey,

To be trueful, you have to make up your own mind.There our tons of langs.
out there, each with their own benefits. If you get a good book, it can
teach you to do structured programming in C or C++. Whatever you do, you are
going to have a lot of work to do on your own. There isn't nothing that is
to hard to understand as long as you have a compiler/interpeter and a good
book or tutorial. Some people will talk about how hard pointers are. There
only hard if you don't point any work in understanding them at all. I am not
even an intermediate programming, but I can understand the ideas behind
pointers just from doing a little reading on them. Even I used any more time
on them, I could even program with them. The only problem I have is I am
wasting time on other stuff like my classes in college. When I first started
out I played with GW Basic, later C++. I learned as much as I put time in
them. The main question is are you willing to put out the time necassary to
learn a new lang., and do you have the time. Someone else made the lang.
unless they did a sorry job, you should be able to learn it. A language that
I would consider is Java, it is built on top of C++ and you can download a
free compiler from Sun. Good Luck.

Hi guys,
          Just a little suggestion, could you please try to send 
plain-text emails only to the list?

Since I get the list in digest format, it is made quite difficult to 
read when I have the email usually first in plain-text, then in HTML 
code which I have to scroll past, and then when you have several replies 
you haven't deleted from the bottom of your email, the problem is 
compounded - making it especially hard to find the start of the next 
real new message.

Thanks,

Subject: [Dev-C++] help


Hey guys,

i wrote a program to solve the knight's problem.(move to every block on the 
chess board using the knight's movements, but never reach the same block 
twice.)

I feel though i coded the program right my system is unable to run the 
program.

In order to test it i compiled the program with two compilers, as a result 
both the exe files gave errors. but the exe file created by dev-c++ compiler 
ran longer than the other(i.e it could try more to reach the result).

the error message for both theexe files was
" this program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down"

but the details causing the error were diffrent in the either case:

When compiled with Dev-c++ compiler:

I couldn't tell you exactly what the problem is without the seeing the
source code, which I'm interested in doing anyway as it's not a problem I've
come across before. However I can suggest what may be the cause. By any
chance is the algorithm used a recursive one? That could be one reason you
are getting a 'stack fault' as every time you call a method you are creating
a new set of instance variables (amongst other things) on the stack for it,
and there is only a limited amount of space allocated to the stack usualy.
Notice that in both versions the stack pointer (ESP) is about 00560000h
which is about 5 Meg assuming it started a zero. I think on intel machines
that is the case?

There may be another cause but that seems the most likely. If you are using
a recursive function then try to reimplement it in a non-recursive manner,
it will be faster that way too.

If recursive calls are the cause, then this fault also suggests that there
may be an error in the termination condition of the function(s), so you are
going through an infinite number of recursive calls, although it may just be
that the algorithm requires so many calls that the termination condition
would never be met before a stack overflow.

This is all just a stab in the dark without seeing the code, but I hope it
helps.

Jason

I think that "Programming Windows by Charles Petzold" is a classic for
newbie of the windows programing.
N.B. This book refers to the c language and it is only for base windows
programming not cover anyone advanted tecnique.

Hi Carlos,

Take a look at Charles Petzold's books on "Programming Windows", I think
there are books for 95, NT, etc...

I think they're really good books (but I can't remember now if they're
focussed on C or C++).

RE: [Dev-C++] reg-Knight's tour problem

[Santiago P. C. <San...@yd...>]

Hi Mohammed,

Let me try to give some help on this issue O:o)

A 'common' recursive algorithm looks like this one:

// Calculate factorial of int number
int recursive_function(int iParameter)
{
	// Check for posible errors
	if (iParameter < 0)
	{
		cout << "ERROR: Negative number!" << endl;
		exit(SOME_ERROR_VALUE);
	}

	// Check race condition
	if (iParameter == 0)
	{
		// We got it! No more loops ;o)
		return 1;
	}
	else
	{
		// Handle params & manage with values
		int iCurrentValue = iParameter;
		iParameter--;

		return (iCurrentValue*recursive_function(iParameter));
	}
}

This is not THE answer, it's a simple function to ilustrate recursive
algorithms, there are variants depending on the desired behaviour of the
function (p.e. you can handle parameter/s before checking the race
condition).

The point here is that you must reach the race condition inside the function
and terminate the program normally, if you don't do that you'll exit the
program 'the hard way' even when the program itself succeeds.

As a good programming practice you should try to avoid exiting abruptly,
instead of this, you should perform any necessary cleanup tasks when you
exit a program p.e.: close open files, deallocate reserved memory, etc...

Hope this helps!

Best regards, Santy

hey ioannis;
The variables i,j are members of the class. Why do you say recursion never 
end. The function assignment calls the other functions 'refresh', 'value' in
the line

refresh();
pos=value(j+(8*i));

hence when the this situation (given below)arises in the function value, the

program wil hald and hence the recursion ends there.

if(row_loc<0) {cout<<"NO SOLUTION";system("pause");exit(0);}

(or)

when the situation
if(l==63)
                          {
                          cout<<"RESULT :"<<endl;
                          for(int k=0;k<64;k++)

                          }
in refresh function is encountered the recursion ends.
