Sargera | [quote author=BaDDBLooD link=board=30;threadid=8286;start=0#msg76582 date=1093115912] Lmao! wow that is really bad! [/quote] Actually, I just think you're stupid and agreeing with iago. It's generally shit, and thanks again, iago (*grins*) for bringing that up again. With a few edits of that calculator (bad coding, like recursing main and the array usage which I don't actually mind doing in such an insignificant application) and it's fine. :) Edit: Your calculator is no better than someone elses who is starting out in C++. Oh yeah, and you might want to use ANSI C++ :) | August 21, 2004, 7:32 PM |

BaDDBLooD | My Second Application: [code] #include <iostream.h> int main() { char indicator = 'n'; int value = 0; double f = 0; do { cout << endl << "Enter value: "; cin >> value; f=1; for(int i = 2; i<=value; i++) f *= i; cout << value << "! is " << f; cout << endl << "Do you want to enter another value (y or n)?

Sargera | Maybe you should use contemporary ANSI C++ :) Also, your indents are inconsistant. Should generally always use a 4-space tab. Some people like to use 3-space tabs and 2-space tabs when indenting their conditional statements. | August 21, 2004, 8:32 PM |
BaDDBLooD | Eh.. it looks correct in vc++, it fucks up when i use code tags ;O another program: [code] #include <iostream.h> int main(void) { int f = 0, c = 0, type = 0; char indicator = 'n'; do { cout << "1) Farenheit to Celcius" << endl << "2) Celcius to Farenheit" << endl << endl << "What do you want to convert? "; cin >> type; if(type == 1) { cout << endl << "Enter Temperature in Farenheit: "; cin >> f; cout << "Temperature: " << (f/1.8) - 32 << " Celcius" << endl; } else if(type == 2) { cout << endl << "Enter Temperature in Celcius: "; cin >> c; cout << "Temperature: " << (1.8*c) + 32 << " Farenheit" << endl; } cout << "Do you want to enter another value (y or n)?

Yoni | I wouldn't multiply floats by ints unless there's a special reason to. i.e., instead of doing (1.8*c), you're better off doing (9*c)/5. And instead of (f/1.8), use (5*f)/9. | August 21, 2004, 10:55 PM |

Mephisto | In VS.NET 2003 aren't there performance options to enhance performance for integer/floating-point arithmetic? And isn't that implied on optimizations for Pentium 4/AMD processors; I saw an article about it from Microsoft explaining that that particular optimization enhances speed for artihmetic for those processors by using different instructions. | September 24, 2004, 2:18 PM |
