Re: RowCount of a DataTable - C# Discussion Boards

You can simplify your code for P(n, k):

int P(n, k)
{
   int value = 1;
   for(i = n; i>k; --i)
      value *= i;
   return value;
}

int C(n, k)
{
   return P(n, k)/P(k,1);
}

Thanks for all the suggestions. Now another question.
What data type should be used for numbers > long?

The above examples work great for 10_P_4 but I'm getting divide by zero's for 100_P_10.

I belive it's because 100! > long.

using this routine -----

long x = 1;
for(long i = 2; i <=n; ++i)
x *= i;

In most C style languages like C#, array indexes usually start with 0 rather then 1. For loops usually follow this form.

for(int i=0; i<list.count; ++i)
="" do="" something="" with="" list[i]="" here=""

Deserialize Error

9-Sep-05 13:50

I have a file that has a serialized object in it.
I wrote ANOTHER program that I wanted to read that object.
When I attempt to Deserialize I get the following execption:

Unable to find assemble 'Address, Version 1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null

To make sure the second program new about the class object that was stored in the file, I copied the class to the new program. I also copied the Serialize and Deserialize code that works on the first program to the second program. The first program can read and write with no problems to this file. Both programs were created in MS's Visual C# 2005 Express Edition Beta.

Anybody have an idea why one program can not read a serialized file created by another program?

Thanks for any help,
Dave

You can't copy a class by coping the source code for it. That will only create a class that looks exactly the same, but it is not the same class.

Compile the class by itself, so that you can reference the dll from both programs.

That still wont work. According to MSDN, a serialized stream will NOT deserialize in any program except the one that serialized it. Maybe of your new program has the same assembly name and such it may work.

I searched for days for this answer until I came scross that on MSDN.

Does anyone know how to make DebugView from SysInternals "work"? I am trying to write a C# program in .NET 2003 and to print 2 lines:

System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("I am debugging");
System.Diagnostics.Trace.WriteLine("I am Tracing");

I start dbgview.exe, run my program, and I do not see those comments (I checked that I am in debug mode). I have seen references to some kind of TraceListener, but I don't know what that is or where to set it up.

If anyone knows what I'm talking about, could you please link me to some pertinent info? My quick search on google didn't give me anything.

Thanks

You can add a trace listener using your app.config file look here:

Thanks very much for the link. I can't seem to get it working yet, but I will keep looking around here.

I put in a TextWriterTraceListener, and that does nothing;
I put in an EventLogTraceListener, and that properly writes to the Event Log;
I put in a DefaultTraceListener, and that throws an error.

Thanks for the help.

That's surprising. AFAIK, TraceListeners are useful if you want to monitor trace output within your application, they notify you when someone does a Trace.WriteLine or something similar.

You should be seeing the messages in DebugView without doing anything special. Are you able to see the messages in VS .NET's Output window?

Regards
Senthil

I did not realize I could see the output there Blush | :O

. I fired it up, and yes, I can see the output in the output window.

I still cannot see it in DebugView though! I tried the suggestion from the other poster to add a trace listener app.config section but that didn't seem to work.

I can get a lot of information, though, just by using the output window. Man, I feel like an amateur!

You are creating DataColumn objects, but you don't use them. Instead you create columns that have the same name as the variables. To use the DataColumn objects that you create, do like this:

DataColumn userSkill = new DataColumn("Skill");<br />
dtshowskills.Columns.Add(userSkill);<br />
DataColumn userLevel = new DataColumn("Level");<br />
dtshowskills.Columns.Add(userLevel);

The columns will now be named "Skill" and "Level".
