• Why is there no better representation for floating points than sign and magnitude?

  - by cambr

  We have 2's complement for integers that allows us to perform operations without worrying about the sign. That is a big help at the implementation level. Similarly we have so many floating point operations and yet we rely on sign and magnitude. What is the reason? Why can't a 2's complement like system work for floats?

• g++ not linking header files properly

  - by cambr

  I am using cygwin libraries to run C and C++ programs on Windows. gcc runs fine, but with g++, I get a long list of errors. I think these erros are because of linking problems with C libraries. Can you suggest what I need to do to fix this? beginning error lines: In file included from testgpp.cpp:1: /cygdrive/c/cygwin/bin/../lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/3.4.4/include/c++/cstdio:52:19: stdio.h: No such file or directory In file included from testgpp.cpp:1: /cygdrive/c/cygwin/bin/../lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/3.4.4/include/c++/cstdio:99: error: `::FILE' has not been declared /cygdrive/c/cygwin/bin/../lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/3.4.4/include/c++/cstdio:100: error: `::fpos_t' has not been declared /cygdrive/c/cygwin/bin/../lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/3.4.4/include/c++/cstdio:102: error: `::clearerr' has not been declared /cygdrive/c/cygwin/bin/../lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/3.4.4/include/c++/cstdio:103: error: `::fclose' has not been declared /cygdrive/c/cygwin/bin/../lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/3.4.4/include/c++/cstdio:104: error: `::feof' has not been declared the whole error dump: PasteBin

• Why is there ambiguity in this diamond pattern?

  - by cambr

  #include <iostream> using namespace std; class A { public: void eat(){ cout<<"A";} }; class B: public A { public: void eat(){ cout<<"B";} }; class C: public A { public: void eat(){ cout<<"C";} }; class D: public B,C { public: void eat(){ cout<<"D";} }; int main(){ A *a = new D(); a->eat(); } I am not sure this is called diamond problem or not, but why doesn't this work? When I said, a->eat() (remember eat() is not virtual), there is only one possible eat() to call, that of A. Why then, do I get this error: 'A' is an ambiguous base of 'D'

• How does virtual inheritance solve the diamond problem?

  - by cambr

  class A { public: void eat(){ cout<<"A";} }; class B: virtual public A { public: void eat(){ cout<<"B";} }; class C: virtual public A { public: void eat(){ cout<<"C";} }; class D: public B,C { public: void eat(){ cout<<"D";} }; int main(){ A *a = new D(); a->eat(); } I understand the diamond problem, and above piece of code does not have that problem. How exatly does virtual inheritance solve the problem? What I understand: When I say A *a = new D();, the compiler wants to know if an object of type D can be assigned to a pointer of type A, but it has two paths that it can follow, but cannot decide by itself. So, how does virtual inheritance resolve the issue (help compiler take the decision)?

• getting started with lex

  - by cambr

  I need to format some hexdump like this: 00010: 02 03 04 05 00020: 02 03 04 08 00030: 02 03 04 08 00010: 02 03 04 05 00020: 02 03 04 05 02 03 04 05 02 03 04 08 to 02 03 04 05 02 03 04 08 02 03 04 02 03 04 05 02 03 04 05 02 03 04 05 02 03 04 a) remove the address fields, if present b) remove any 08 at the end of a paragraph (followed by an empty line) c) remove any empty lines How can this be done using lex? thanks!

• Is this not downcasting?

  - by cambr

  If I do double d = 34.56; int i = (int)d; Am I not "downcasting"? OR Is this term only used in terms of classes and objects? I am confused because in this case we are "downcasting" from a bigger double to a smaller int, but in case of classes, we "downcast" from a smaller base class to a bigger derived class. Aren't these two conventions, in some sense, opposite?

This is a weird error. Is there something that is fundamentally wrong with the code?

  Suppose, I write class A { }; compiler should provide (as and when needed) a constructor a destructor a copy constructor = operator Is this all what the compiler provides? Are there any additions or deletions to this list?

• include and using namespace in C++

  - by cambr

  for using cout, I need to specify both: #include<iostream> and using namespace std; Where is cout defined? in iostream, correct? So, it is that iostream itself is there in namespace std? What is the meaning of both the statements with respect to using cout? I am confused why we need to include them both.

• C++ STL containers

  - by cambr

  Different STL containers like vector, stack, set, queue, etc support different access methods on them. If you are coding for example in Notepad++ or vim, you have to continuously refer to the documentation to see what all methods are available, atleast I have to. Is there some good way of remembering which container supports which methods??

• How to read and write a STL C++ string?

  - by cambr

  #include<string> ... string in; //How do I store a string from stdin to in? // //gets(in) - 16 cannot convert `std::string' to `char*' for argument `1' to //char* gets (char*)' // //scanf("%s",in) also gives some weird error Similarly, how do I write out in to stdout or to a file??

• How is inheritance implemented at the memory level?

  - by cambr

  Suppose I have class A { public: void print(){cout<<"A"; }}; class B: public A { public: void print(){cout<<"B"; }}; class C: public C { }; How is inheritance implemented at the memory level? Does C copy print() code to itself or does it have a pointer to the it that points somewhere in A part of the code? How does the same thing happen when we override the previous definition, for example in B (at the memory level)?

• How to restrict the range of elements of C++ STL vector?

  - by cambr

  vector<int> l; for(int i=0;i<10;i++){ l.push_back(i); } I want the vector to only be able to store numbers from a specified range (or set). How can that be done, in general? In particular, I want to restrict the vector to beonly be able to store single digits. So, if I do a l[9]++, it should give me an error or warn me. (because 10 is not a single digit number). Similarly, l[0]-- should warn me. Is there a way to do this using C++ STL vector?

• What does this C++ construct do?

  - by cambr

  Somewhere in lines of code, I came across this construct... //void* v = void* value from an iterator int i = (int)(long(v)) What possible purpose can this contruct serve? Why not simply use int(v) instead? Why the cast to long first?

• how to make this piece of code work in C++?

  - by cambr

  #include<stdio.h> void print(int *arr[], int s1, int s2) { int i, j; printf("\n"); for(i = 0; i<s1; i++) { for(j = 0; j<s2; j++) { printf("%d, ", *((arr+i)+j)); } } printf("\n"); } int main() { int a[4][4] = {{0}}; print(a,4,4); } This works in C, but not in C++. error: cannot convert `int (*)[4]' to `int**' for argument `1' to `void print(int**, int, int)' Why does it not work in C++? What change is needed to be made?

• What does #error do?

  - by cambr

  I am guessing from # that it is only a compile-time utility. How can it be used in C/C++ programs? Did not find much about it on the internet. Any links would be helpful.

• How to change a particular element of a C++ STL vector

  - by cambr

  vector<int> l; for(int i=1;i<=10;i++){ l.push_back(i); } Now, for example, how do I change the 5th element of the vector to -1? I tried l.assign(4, -1); It is not behaving as expected. None of the other vector methods seem to fit. I have used vector as I need random access functionality in my code (using l.at(i)).
