Welcome
Welcome visitor. Feel free to ask questions about ISO/ANSI C/C++ anytime.
Ask questions about C/C++ in this forums that is *not* related to any API or non-standard library. Below are some examples that do NOT belong in this forum:
MFC, Qt, Borland OWL, Microsoft related, Linux/Unix coding, wxWidgeds/wxWindows, the registry, colors on screen, mice, printer ports, usb, OpenGL, DirectX, graphics libraries, MP3 coding, network coding, game programming, midi programming.
To (high)school and university students:
Occasionally teachers let students work with university-specific data-strucures and algorithm libraries. I don't mind if these are covered in this part of the forum as long as the libraries are OS-independent. Also, the source of the libraries should be freely available.
Analisys and Design
I have no problems with questions regarding paradigms, analisys and design, but the code should stay C/C++ related. So no Ruby or other languages. Also no coverage about UML software like Rational Rose, UML-Studio and so forth.
Math, methods, concepts et al
I have no problems with questions regarding mathematical issues or various methods. But expect code to be written in C or C++. No questions regarding Matlab, Maple etcetera though.
Posting code helpfully
Thanks to
kyoryu a helpful visitor of this site:
1) Please do post your compiler warnings. Your compiler warnings helps us to locate your problem(s).
2) Strip your code if it is lengthy to the point where it is still compilable and the code still produces the error. This way, the problem can be found much easier at many times!
Posting Code Decently
1). Post code between the code tags (don't leave spaces between the word "code" and the brackets!). E.g.:
[ code ]
//My code here.
[ /code ]
2). Tell if you like help in "C" or "C++".
3). Format your code so it is readable. For example, if every line of code is followed by an empty line, then such a format becomes unreadable very quickly.
Posting Code Decently
Help on school assignments is o.k. but don't expect us to actually do your homework.
Thank you for your time,
