dev-cpp-users Mailing List for Dev-C++ (Page 731)

Well, for the exampleprogram that you refered to, it isn't necesary to use a 
switch... but anyway, mail me if you need to anyhow.

Here how to do some key-stuff:


#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>

void main(void)
{
    int keydown=3D0;

    while(keydown !=3D 27)            /*While ESC-key is NOT pressed!*/
    {
        keydown =3D getch();          /*Store the keypress-value*/
        printf("%c", keydown);     /*Print the key-press-value*/
    }
}

I was referred to use this instead of if / else statements I=92m trying to 
understand how to use it I have read the article on MSDN I ask can someone 
write a small program that will get the variable from the keyboard and a small 
action for instance if you enter 1 it says the number 1 detected or Z would 
say the letter z detected as when I see this in use I can fully understand how 
to use it thanks :O)

Try this;  :-)



1)

#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>
#include <time.h>

void get_answer(void)
{
    clock_t start, end;

    start = clock();                                  /*Start the timer*/
    while(!kbhit())                                   /*While no one presses a

#define stone

I have been told that it is somehow possible to convert integers to 
strings using
#include <strstream> and 
#include <string>

using std::strstream and std::string
But I have not been able to figure out how.

Does anyone have any comments, suggestions, or an idea of how 
to do it?

^^;;

//- The "proper" syntax for including standard header files in C++ is
sans-
//  the .h
#include <cstdlib>
#include <iostream>
#include <ctime>     // Needed to seed the random number generator.

//- Function to roll a single die.  Call this function once for each die
needed.
int rollDie( void )
{
  // use the modulo to determine the value of the die roll.
  return ( ::rand( ) % 6 ) + 1;
}

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
  //- Seed the random number generator so we don't get the same
  //  result each time.
  ::srand( ::time( 0 ) );

  // Declare and set the die values
  int die_1 = rollDie( );
  int die_2 = rollDie( );

  // Output the die values
  cout << "You rolled a " << die_1 + die_2 << endl;
  cout << "  The first die is:  " << die_1;
  cout << "  The second die is:  " << die_2;

  return 0;
}

My programs compile and link fine but after clicking on run, my Dev-C++ =
screen minimizes, the program shows up, and then returns to Dev-C++ =
screen in a matter of 1/2 of a second.  I have tried the FAQ page to no =
avail.  I have made sure that "Do not create a console" is UN-checked in =
Project Options.  I have even put in a - system ("pause");
Please help if you can find time, thanx!

In <stdlib.h> there is rand() and srand().

Here is a better program. Still have no idea why random not in dev-c++
lib. Anybody got any clue??
#include <iostream.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h>

int roll(void);   // protypes
      
int  dice_1;  // Declared globals
int dice_2;

int roll()
{
    dice_1 = (random(6) + 1);       // dev-c++ does not have random
function
    dice_2 = (random(6) + 1);       // that i can find . use bcc55 for
this
    return dice_1;                    // anyone else have information on
random??
}

int main()
{
   int through = 0;
   randomize();
   do
   {
   roll();
   cout<<" the value rolled is : "<<(dice_1+dice_2)<<endl;
   cout <<" the first die was : "<<dice_1<<endl;   // changed to int 
   cout<<" the second die was: "<<dice_2<<endl;
   cout<<"Enter 1 to quit " ;
   cin>>through;
//   system("pause");               // not needed now
   }while(through != 1);
                                 
   return 0;                                       // screen in console
mode
   
}

  You need to correct the errors so that the program
compiles. The compiler was executed remotely from

I do not know about control devices or PLCs but i know that C/C++ are the
ideal general programming languages used for programming the biggest
mainframes to the smallest embedded devices. If you want to choose between C
& C++ i suggest you learn C++ and begin  learning directly C++ and not C
first (as i unfortunately did).

Also take a look at:

http://www.research.att.com/~bs/esc99.html ,

at http://www.research.att.com/~bs/

and make a search on the web for the data you are looking for.


Best regards,
Ioannis

Would you be able to give me an example I guess I'm leaving beginner

you would use a cin or cin.get statement

Your best bet is to start with a "Hello World" Program. Learn to crawl first.

Here is a little snip for you,

             cout << "Number 1 detected" << endl;
             break;

would this book be part of say............. a college text?

This is an open question to all members concerning C/C++ program 
applications.  I hope you will freely offer your advice.

I am an engineer who, for the first time in his life, is suddenly 
unemployed.  All the job ads include working knowledge of C/C++ and/or 
Visual Basic in addition to all the other prerequisites, such as MMI 
programming and PLC programming.  I have years of experience in the latter 
but no working experience in C/C++ or Visual Basic.  I did take a formal 
course at the local community college in beginning C/C++ about three years 
ago because I forsaw the future need.  Non of my past positions have 
required its use so I have no working experience.  I also have no idea of 
how it is being used in engineering applications for machine control.  I 
have worked in Instrumentation and Controls and also worked on the edge of 
Robotic applications.  The robotics always involved interfacing to the 
system through the PLC I was using for the other controls that made up the 
application.  My questions are as follows:

	1. What is a typical control application where a C/C++ program would be used?
	2. Could you give me an example of such a problem?
	3. Could you give me an example of how such problem was solved using a C/C++
	    program?
	4. I'm assuming that a card is used to affect a real world interface to a 
computer and
	    the program interfaces the computer to the card or some other 
peripheral equipment?
	5. It's a lot to ask, but I need to know how to direct my programming and 
learning efforts
	    to directly address my lack of real experience.

I hope some one will take the time and patience to give me some direction 
in my efforts.  I know you have been generous with your help in my 
programming efforts in the past and the help has been right on the 
money.  Thank you.

Here is a little snip for you,
switch (myvar) {
          case 1:
             cout << "Number 1 detected" << endl;
             break;
          case 2:
             cout << "Number 2 detected" << endl;
             break;
          case 3:
             cout << "Number 3 detected" << endl;
             break;
          default:
             cout << "Anything but 1, 2, or 3 was detected" << endl;
          }

Hope that helps you understand switches a little more.

Are you new to C++ ?
