• CS Concentrations and Career Paths

  - by xbonez

  I'm approaching the end of Sophomore year in college (Studying Computer Science), and very soon I'm going to have to decide on my concentration, but I honestly don't know what each concentration means. I basically have two questions: 1. How much influence does your concentration have on your career path? For example, would a video game development company only look at people with a concentration in Game Development? 2.It would be great if you guys could, in a line or two, tell me what sort of jobs am I looking at for each of the concentrations? I need to pick at least two of the 9 below. - Algorithms and Data Structures - Artificial Intelligence - Computer and Network Society - Computer graphics and vision - Human-Computer Interaction - Game Development and Design - Numeric and Symbolic Computation - Programming languages - Systems

• Serving index.html from a subdirectory

  - by xbonez

  In my document root, I have to directories: home and foobar, both with their own index.html files. How can I set it up so that when someone visits my site at example.com, they see the contents on home/index.html? I tried using an index.php with a redirect in document root, as well as a .htaccess redirect, but both of them change the URL in the browser to example.com/home/, which I would like to ideally avoid.

• Boolean algebra simplification

  - by xbonez

  I need to reduce this boolean expression to its simplest form. Its given that the simplest form contains 3 terms and 7 literals. The expression is: x'yz + w'x'z + x'y + wxy + w'y'z We tried this in class, and even out recitation teacher could not figure it out. Any help would be appreciated.

• Quick question about pointers

  - by xbonez

  So, I have this code fragment: int * iPtr ; int * jPtr ; int i = 5, k = 7; iPtr = &i; jPtr = iPtr ; I have just started learning about pointers, and need to get some doubts cleared. is jPtr now essentially also pointing at i? I know I can change the value of i by using *iPtr, but how can I change the value of the object being pointed to by jPtr? How will changing the object being pointed to by jPtr affect the value of the object pointed to by iPtr, and i ?

• A question on vectors, pointers and iterators

  - by xbonez

  Guys, I have a midterm examination tomorrow, and I was looking over the sample paper, and I'm not sure about this question. Any help would be appreciated. Let v be a vector<Thingie*>, so that each element v[i] contains a pointer to a Thingie. If p is a vector<Thingie*>::iterator, answer the following questions: what type is p? what type is *p? what code provides the address of the actual Thingie? what code provides the actual Thingie?

• Swapping values using pointers

  - by xbonez

  I have this code fragment int i = 5; int k = 7; int * iPtr; int * jPtr; int * kPtr; iPtr = &i; kPtr = &k; I am required to swap i and k using the pointers. This is how I'm doing it: *jPtr = *kPtr ; *kPtr = *iPtr ; *iPtr = *jPtr ; Is this the best way to do it, or is there a better way?

• Checking for duplicates in a vector

  - by xbonez

  I have to check a vector for duplicates. What is the best way to approach this: I take the first element, compare it against all other elements in the vector. Then take the next element and do the same and so on. Is this the best way to do it, or is there a more efficient way to check for dups?

• converting string to int in C++

  - by xbonez

  I am trying to convert a string I read in from a file to an int value so I can store it in an integer variable. This is what my code looks like: ifstream sin; sin.open("movie_output.txt"); string line; getline(sin,line); myMovie.setYear(atoi(line)); Over here, setYear is a mutator in the Movie class (myMovie is an object of Movie class) that looks like this: void Movie::setYear(unsigned int year) { year_ = year; } When I run the code, I get the following error: error C2664: 'atoi' : cannot convert parameter 1 from 'std::string' to 'const char *' 1> No user-defined-conversion operator available that can perform this conversion, or the operator cannot be called

• Binary Addition. Is it overflow?

  - by xbonez

  Binary values are in 2s Complement form. If I am to add 110001 (-15) and 101110 (-18), and the answer has to be stored in a 6-bit integer, is this an underflow/overflow.

• C++ program to calculate large factorials

  - by xbonez

  How can I write a c++ program to calculate large factorials. Example, if I want to calculate (100!) / (99!), we know the answer is 100, but if i calculate the factorials of the numerator and denominator individually, both the numbers are gigantically large.

• C++ detecting end of file

  - by xbonez

  I have a C++ program that is reading in info from a file, that stores info seperated by "$$$$". An example of how the file looks is: abc bcd $$$$ def $$$$ qwe gfh $$$$ How can I detect the file has ended, without using the eof() function? I have it set like this, getline(sin,temp) if (temp=="$$$$") { } After reading the last set of four dollars, how can I check the next line to ensure another set of data isn't beginning, and that the file has ended? If the file has indeed ended, I plan on using a boolean flag to terminate the while loop.

• C++. What is a subprogram and method?

  - by xbonez

  I have a CPP HW to be done. One question is: 1) Write a subprogram (not a method) void promptForMovie(Movie & myMovie) that ..... 2) Write a method void output(ostream & out); that .... My question is what exactly is a subprogram and a method? Which one of them means a function, and what does the other mean? Thank you

• Why am I not getting correct result when I calculate exponent with ^ in C++?

  - by xbonez

  I am using Bode's formuala to calculate distance of nth planet from sun dist = (4 + 3*(2^(n-2)))/10 If I calculate the distance this way, I get the right values: dist[2] = ((4 + 3*1)/10.0) ; dist[3] = ((4 + 3*2)/10.0) ; dist[4] = ((4 + 3*4)/10.0) ; But doing it this way, gives me incorrect values: vector <double> dist(5); for (unsigned int i = 2; i < 5; i++) { dist[i] = ((4 + 3*(2^(3-2)))/10.0) ; } Why so?

• Selecting size of vector of vectors

  - by xbonez

  I have a class called Grid that declares a vector of vectors like this: typedef vector<int> row; typedef vector<row> myMatrix; myMatrix sudoku_; The constructor looks like this: grid::grid() : sudoku_(9,9) { } As you can see, the constructor is initializing it to be a 9x9 grid. How can I make it work so that the user is asked for a number, say n, and the grid is initialized n x n ?

• C++ Vector of pointers

  - by xbonez

  For my latest CS homework, I am required to create a class called Movie which holds title, director, year, rating, actors etc. Then, I am required to read a file which contains a list of this info and store it in a vector of pointers to Movies. I am not sure what the last line means. Does it mean, I read the file, create multiple Movie objects. Then make a vector of pointers where each element (pointer) points to one of those Movie objects? Do I just make two vectors - one of pointers and one of Movies and make a one-to-one mapping of the two vectors?

• C++ Vector of vectors is messing with me

  - by xbonez

  If I put this code in a .cpp file and run it, it runs just fine: #include <iostream> #include <vector> #include <string> using namespace std; typedef vector<int> row; typedef vector<row> myMatrix; void main() { //cout << endl << "test" << endl; myMatrix mat(2,2); mat[0][1] = 2; cout << endl << mat[0][1] << endl; } But, if I make a .h and a .cpp file with the .h file like this, it gives me boatloads of errors. #ifndef _grid_ #define _grid_ #include<iostream> #include<vector> #include<string> using namespace std; typedef vector<int> row; typedef vector<row> myMatrix; class grid { public: grid(); ~grid(); int getElement(unsigned int ri, unsigned int ci); bool setElement(unsigned int ri, unsigned int ci, unsigned int value); private: myMatrix sudoku_(9,9); }; #endif These are some of the errors I get: warning C4091: 'typedef ' : ignored on left of 'int' when no variable is declared error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support default-int

• Running for loop depending on size of string vector

  - by xbonez

  I have made a string vector vector actor_; and then added elements in it using push_back. I now want to display all of them, for which I need to run a loop according to the number of elements in the vector. For that, I need to run the following loop: for (int i = 0; i < (int)actor_.size; i++) { } but this returns the following error: error C2440: 'type cast' : cannot convert from 'unsigned int (__thiscall std::vector<_Ty::* )(void) const' to 'int' 1 with 1 [ 1 _Ty=std::string 1 ] 1 There is no context in which this conversion is possible

• [C++] Simple inheritance question

  - by xbonez

  I was going over some sample questions for an upcoming test, and this question is totally confusing me. Any help would be appreciated. Consider the following code: class GraduateStudent : public Student { ... }; If the word "public" is omitted, GraduateStudent uses private inheritance, which means which of the following? GraduateStudent objects may not use methods of Student. GraduateStudent does not have access to private objects of Student. No method of GraduateStudent may call a method of Student. Only const methods of GraduateStudent can call methods of Student.

• C++ Declaring an uninitialized variable without a null constructor

  - by xbonez

  Consider the DUPoint class, whose declaration appears below. Assume this code appears in a file named DUPoint.h: #include <string> class DUPoint { public: DUPoint (int x, int y); int getX () const; int getY () const; void setX (int x); void setY (int y); void print(); private: int x_; int y_; }; Is it true that you cannot declare an uninitialized DUPoint variable with a statement such as DUPoint P; using this class as currently configured because it has no null constructor?
