Hello again everyone. I appreciate the helped that I received last time but I need help again on my array programs. I was wondering if some one could tell me how to set up my arrays for the following programs I would greatly appreciate it.
Here are the instructions:
1. Grade Book
Create a New Project called YourLastnameGradeBook.
A teacher has five students who have taken four tests. The teacher uses the following grading scale to assign a letter grade to a student, based on the average of his or her four test scores.
Test Score Letter Grade
90-100 A
80-89 B
70-79 C
60-69 D
0-59 F
Write a program that uses a two-dimensional array of characters to hold the five student names, a single-dimensional array of five characters to hold the five students’ letter grade, and five singe-dimensional arrays of four doubles to hold each student’s set of test scores.
The program should allow the user to enter each student’s name and his or her four test scores. It should then calculate and display each student’s average test score and a letter grade based on the average.
Input validation: Do not accept test scores less than 0 or greater than 100.
2. Payroll
Create a New Project called YourLastnamePayroll.
Write a program that uses the following arrays:
· empId: an array of seven long integers to hold employee identification numbers. The array should be initialized with the following numbers:
5658845 4520125 7895122 8777541 8451277 1302850 7580489
· hours: an array of seven integers to hold the number of hours worked by each employee
· payRate: an array of seven doubles to hold each employee’s hourly pay rate
· wages: an array of seven doubles to hold each employee’s gross wages
The program should relate the data in each array through the subscripts. For example, the number in element 0 of the hours array should be the number of hours worked by the employee whose identification number is stored in element 0 of the empId array. That same employee’s pay rate should be stored in element 0 of the payRate array.
The program should display each employee number and ask the user to enter that employee’s hours and pay rate. It should then calculate the gross wages for that employee (hours times pay rate) and store them in the wages array. After the data has been entered for all the employees, the program should display each employee’s identification number and gross wages.
Input Validation: Do not accept negative values for hours or numbers less than 6.00 for pay rate.
3. 2D Array Operations
Create a New Project called YourLastname2DArrays.
Write a program that creates a two-dimensional array initialized with test data. To simplify this, make all of your data integers. The program should have the following functions:
· getTotal. This function should accept a two-dimensional array as its argument and return the total of all the values in the array.
· getAverage. This function should accept a two-dimensional array as its argument and return the average of all the values in the array.
· getRowTotal. This function should accept a two-dimensional array as its first argument and an integer as its second argument. The second argument should be the subscript of a row in the array. The function should return the total of the values in the specified row.
· getColumnTotal. This function should accept a two-dimensional array as its first argument and an integer as its second argument. The second argument should be the subscript of a column in the array. The function should return the total of the values in the specified column.
· getHighestInRow. This function should accept a two-dimensional array as its first argument and an integer as its second argument. The second argument should be the subscript of a row in the array. The function should return the highest value in the specified row of the array.
· getLowestInRow. This function should accept a two-dimensional array as its first argument and an integer as its second argument. The second argument should be the subscript of a row in the array. The function should return the lowest value in the specified row of the array.
Demonstrate each of the functions in this program.

You didn't receive any help. You received sarcastic comments and were directed to the forum guidelines. Try to figure out why and then do your homework.
Edit: I just realised that you weren't directed to the forum guidelines. So, here you go:

its done now I just wanted to know if somebody would show me how to initialize the arrays because my book didnt do a really good job explaining it to me.

That is really very basic stuff. Try to write some code and post a question whenever you meet the first obstacle.

Have you done this?

This approach is potentialy unsafe and not necessary with C++. For example:
vector<string> names;
string name;
for (int x = 0; x < 5; x++)
{
cout << "Enter name #" << x + 1 << ": ";
cin >> name;
names.push_back(name);
}

This is a niggling little cosmetic issue that I thought would be easy to solve with a bit of message manipulation. It is turning out to be unreasonably difficult.
I have a combobox on a toolbar (as part of the Objective Studio framework) and I have filled it with a fixed set of 'menu like' contents (it actually echos a dynamic menu in the app).
a la...
Title 1
- Entry 11
- Entry 12
- Entry 13
Title 2
- Entry 21
- Entry 22
What I wanted to do, when an Entry is selected, was to automatically remove the ' - ' at the start of the string.
So I used the CBS_DROPDOWN style (instead of the CBS_DROPDOWNLIST) so I could 'edit' the contents of the selection, while using PreTranslateMessage to prevent keyboard edits. I then caught the CBN_SELCHANGE event, from which I can get the current selection, edit the text and then SetWindowText. This all works, but occurs BEFORE the combo box edit control updates, meaning the Entry is set back to list value (with the ' - '). I need a CBN event after update, but their isn't one.
Any suggestions? I don't really want to go so far as deriving a new control to solve this minor issue, but it is bugging me a bit.

OK...I solved this with what seems like an ugly hack, surely there must be a better way....
Anyways, what I did was to PostMessage a user message from the CBN_SELCHANGE event and strip the prefix in my user message handler, I just hope the messages continue to arrive in the correct order...

I used NtQueryInformationProcess to get
PROCESS_BASIC_INFORMATION and PEB and then RTL_USER_PROCESS_PARAMETERS.
But CommandLine of RTL_USER_PROCESS_PARAMETERS is always associated with the currect process although I passed in different PID into NtQueryInformationProcess() call.
By the way, I am using XP64.
Can you help.
Thanks

Have you read the following notice in documentation [^]:
[NtQueryInformationProcess may be altered or unavailable in future versions of Windows. Applications should use the alternate functions listed in this topic.]
?

You should pass the process handle, shouldn't you?

Thanks for your response.
Yes, I do pass the process handle, here is the example,
hProcess = OpenProcess(PROCESS_QUERY_INFORMATION | PROCESS_VM_READ,
FALSE, mypid );
NtQueryInformationProcess (hProcess, ProcessBasicInformation,
&pbi, sizeof(pbi), &dwSize);
Where "mypid" is what I want and is not current PID. But the CommandLine I got is the Current Process's CommandLine. So strange!
Yes, I realize that. But I am not sure which new function can be used in order to replace the "NtQueryInformationProcess()" though.

How do you get the command line? I don't see such a option in the documentation.

Hello everyone,
I understand there should be no exception thrown from destructor. But exception will block the remaining code to be executed until catch block.
In my destructor, I free resources step by step. But at some first step, there may be exception in destructor, so I suspect the remaining resources can not be freed correctly. In my class, I use member variable to hold resources.
My questions are,
- My current solution is to declare each member as smart pointer, so that to ensure the destructor will be called.
- I am not sure whether my concern is correct or no such issue -- e.g. member's destructor will always be called or not, even if I do not wrap them with auto_ptr?
thanks in advance,
George

of course no destructor is called for objects allocated dynamically and assigned to standard (even if class member) pointers.

Thanks CPallini,
One more question, if the class member has destructor, even if
- we do not call it exeplicitly in the whole class's destructor;
- or because of exception execution flow, it is not executed
its destructor will be called when the current object instance destructs?
regards,
George

Thanks CPallini!
I think here is the answer,
--------------------
In reverse order of construction: First constructed, last destructed.
In the following example, b's destructor will be executed first, then a's destructor:
void userCode()
{
Fred a;
Fred b;
...
}
--------------------
So, I think the answer to my question whether destructor of member variable will be called in the following two situations is -- yes, they must be called. Correct understanding?
- we do not call it exeplicitly in the whole class's destructor;
- or because of exception execution flow, it is not executed.
regards,
George

The destructors of member variables are always implicit called, so you have NOT to call them explicitely.

Thanks CPallini!
From your reply, I think in the two situations, as long as I implement the destructor of the members properly, they will be called finally without any issues. Correct?
- we do not call it exeplicitly in the whole class's destructor;
- or because of exception execution flow, it is not executed.
regards,
George

You are kidding right? With all the esoteric question you ask around here when you don't even know how destructors work. That is exactly why in the past I suggested you stop investigating some of the issues you were on about. You need to stick to fundamentals until you get a firm grasp of them. Until then you are basically lost.
Ah yes, just below is yet another good example:
George_George wrote: For the following code, on x86 build, the output is
000000C8
000000C8
and on x64 build, the output is
CCCCCCCC000000C8
00000000000000C8
You are looking at and questioning what the compiler generates when you don't even know how destructors work. That makes no sense at all. It's even worse for someone that is constantly claiming they are trying to make sense of things.

You're still answering the bot, huh?

Couldn't agree more Mark.

In my opinion it usually begins with a seemingly basic question about a small detail, but when the answer comes it blows up to something else where George clearly has not grasped the concept and he refers to another detail in some obscure MSDN article or similar. From that point on it takes a good book to explain to George how it really works. This means that I've stopped answering until his questions shows that he has actually paid some attention and learnt something.

Most of the time. He's just lost, but he sure maintains a great attitude with all the stuff hurled at him. It's hard to imagine that we will ever figure out what his deal is. He is the internet developer forum enigma.

I like coding and take a lot of time study various coding issues. My purpose is to know as much as you know in 5 years.
