A tutorial about Pointers!

It's going to be confusing to some people, but I tried my best at giving examples.

page 3 and now windows API that makes a sad shazwoogle

Sorry, this is just a post to get this topic up in the forums =P

Woot C++ main!

It seems to me that only a handful of users on NG only code with C++, come on guys, there has to be more.

I AM ELITE

Tell me what you thinkC++ : Constants

I was going to do something like this when C++ main first started, but couldnt be arsed when i got half way through and computer restarted :P but ive done it now

C/C++ Linked List (theory)

http://newgrounds.co../topic.php?id=488121

i say theory, because it explains everything behind linked lists and doubly linked lists, and the sample i give, only deals with adding and removing items from start and end of linked list

with an extra example at end for random access in a singly linked list

Captin chu's guide to basic C++! (Part I)

I'd like to request a tutorial on Functions from one of the C++ masters here.

Thanks!

What shoudl I write my next tutorial on?? Iv'e been wanting to write one for some time just don't know what

can i request a tutorial on classes/member functions?

i have never really used a class.

thanks!

Yes, I got dibs on this one fellas :D i'll start it later today or early tomorrow morning!

So... Are you going to actually do it? It's been almost a month...

omg i keep getting this problem, with every program:

when i insert for example this code:

#include <iostream>

int main()
{
std::cout << "Hello World!";
char response;
std::cin >>response;
return 0;
}

and then hit compile and run, the program wont run, and i get an error telling me that some file is not found.
Please help me, i get this with every program!

It sounds to me your header file 'iostream' is what it's saying is not found... if this is the case re-install your compiler seeing as the paths were messed up.

I'm sorry for the late response, but I see the problem. Are you used to typing in php code? If so, that might explain why the error existed.

You see, C++ is not a dynamic language. You must put ALL of your declared variables at the top of int main()

I hope that helps. If it doesn't, oh well...

BTW, I made a big, awesome tutorial on Structures and Classes. It doesn't quite go in-depth with classes yet, but I'm going to probably add that later in the topic.

I tried it and it worked fine.

have I just bumped a really old thread? oh well

You're thinking of C. C++ allows for variable initialization any where.

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int function(int);

int main()
{
int a = 5;
cout<<a<<endl;
int b = 6;
cout<<b<<endl;
int c = 7;
c = function(c);
cout<<c;
return 0;
}

int function(int c)
{
return c+5;
}

helped

Captin Chu's Guide to basic C++ (part two)

I really hope the guides that I've been making were helpful.

I am requesting a nice guide on how to use the swith function in c++, i think it is called a swicth. the command that lets you go,

if a =

1 > do this
2> do this

etc.

as you can, i have no idea how it works for c++

It's basically a cleaner way to write comparison statements. Don't know if it warrants it's own tutorial though.
---------------
int iValue = 0;
cin>>iValue;
switch(iValue){
case 1: cout<<"You entered 1\n";
break;
case 5: cout<<"You entered 5\n";
break;
default: cout<<"You entered something besides 1 or 5\n";
}
--------------- is equivalent to
int iValue = 0;
cin>>iValue;
if(iValue == 1) cout<<"You entered 1\n";
else if(iValue == 5) cout<<"You entered 5\n";
else cout<<"You entered something besides 1 or 5\n";
--------------is equivalent to
int iValue = 0;
cin>>iValue;
iValue == 1 ? cout<<"You entered 1\n" : iValue == 5 ? cout<<"You entered 5\n" : cout<<"You entered something besides 1 or 5\n";

Some day, I'll make my third part to my guide of basic C++. In that, I'll explain if, else, switch, more on functions, and basic structures and classes.

For those few who were wondering, I will stop at the fourth and final part of basic C++, "The last of what I know." It will be on extended classes and everything I know about ios. If you could get through all four parts of my guides... yea, you'd pretty much know everything I do about C++. Pretty pathetic, really. : /

hmmm, getting some conflicting information here :-O.

http://en.wikibooks...rogramming/Variables

"In C, all variable declarations (except for globals) must be done at the beginning of a block. You cannot declare your variables, insert some other statements, and then declare more variables. Variable declarations (if there are any) are always the first part of any block."
Are you compiling the C program with a C++ compiler? Maybe I'm (and the wiki editors) are getting C rules and C conventions confused with each other.

Well, IIRC the C99 standards say it is so (I'll take a look and get back to you later.) It is highly dependent on the compiler too, many compilers don't abide by the most recent standards. GCC does and there are some others, but don't expect the code I posted to compile on, say, Open Watcom.
