anyone good with C++ and feeling generous? Need help finishing a basic program....would take me forever, but someone good could do it in like 5 minutes I guess?

If it's for a class, forget it. Otherwise, one of us might be able to help.

ha not an NCSU class

11/6/2006 7:11:25 PM

plus, dont really want someone to do it, more like help with hints...

11/6/2006 7:12:00 PM

post what you need help with on here. you'll have more luck with a few people pointing you in the right direction than recruiting a person to help you with every bit of it. but if it smells like an ncsu assignment, prepare to be flamed

cout << "programming is for queers";

11/6/2006 9:14:25 PM

Nvm, I will just look in my book again. Anyone suggest a better book or online tutorial then "How to Program" by Dietel and Dietel.......I hope NCSU doesnt use this book.....I dont like it very much (or C++), I have no programming background what-so-ever.

The things I am struggling with are basic things with arrays, searching the array, finding numbers divisible by 3, and finding mode.....just cant find good explainations in my book/

what kind of array help do you need? initializing, syntax, how to use? what kind of searching are you doing, there's tons of search algorithms. you can determine whether a number is divisible by three by using the modulus operator (%)

howstuffworks.com -> C programming

not kidding, it's a good basic site with some example code.

11/7/2006 1:54:20 PM

const int foo = 9;
if (foo % 3 == 0) {
    cout << "foo is divisible by 3";
}

//divisible by 3
#include <iostream>
int main() {
int * array = { 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0 };
do {
if ( !( (*array) % 3 ))
cout<<*array<<endl;
} while ( *(array++) );
}

thanks, I am finishing unwritten code.......so we'll see how I can fit those in

11/7/2006 7:55:08 PM

Finished everything but the search of the array, any help?

You may want to try a basic programming book like "Learn C++ in 21 Days" or something similar. Many of those books assume little to no prior experience and they usually provide example problems with answers and explanations.

books are so '90s
