Ok I'll try to make you very happy Smile | :)

#1. Include the "matrix.h" file in you project

#2. Now for example if you want to add two matrices do following :

int main()<br />
{<br />
        //Construct 3x3 matrices<br />
        CMatrix a(3,3);<br />
	CMatrix b(3,3);<br />
	CMatrix c(3,3);<br />
<br />
	//Initialize elements of a and b matrices<br />
	for(int i=0;i<3;i++)<br />
		for(int j=0;j<3;j++){<br />
			a.SetElement(i,j,i+j);//just example<br />
			b.SetElement(i,j,i-j);//just example<br />
	}<br />
<br />
	//Add a and b matrices<br />
		c = a+b;<br />
<br />
	//Get elements of c matrix<br />
	for(int i=0;i<3;i++){<br />
		for(int j=0;j<3;j++)<br />
	            printf("%.f ",c.GetElement(i,j));<br />
	   printf("\n");<br />
	}<br />
return 0;<br />
}

All other operations you can implement similar to this , just take a good look to the link I posted .

Thank you dear Giorgi,it's very kind of you,you are so wonderful.as I go over
the arithmetic of CMatrix,I found some of the functions are so abstract to understand.especially,the invert arithmetic is hard to understand,can you describe its idea for me.

U can refer the yashwant kanitkars
book "Let us C"
try to fine the soft copy online
geting the pixel value from memory is
explained in last chapters of that book

With all respect to the previous replies, you certainly do not need to use assembler, and you definitely do not need to use DirectX!

Assuming you are using some Microsoft C variant, you can use the getpixel() and setpixel() functions - look them up in the help files.

To use getpixel and setpixel functions you need an hDC (handle to device context to the window or monitor), etc. Look for examples on the Microsoft MSDN site.

OK, some more information!

I suggest you download and have a look at the Colour Finder application, which is at http://www.codeproject.com/miscctrl/ColorFindercp1.asp[^]

To quote from the article, first a handle to the desktop device context is obtained using the API GetDCEx . This handle is then converted to a CDC class pointer using CDC::FromHandle. Then color is retrieved using the CDC method GetPixel.

I have not looked at the Colour Finder in detail, but it could be a good basis for what you want to do, and it's always easier to start with a working application, even if you throw away large bits (like tracking mouse movement, etc.) and add some bits (like changing the colour at a particular location.)

XP versus NT

I want to know what are the differences of Windows NT from Windows XP when in comes to affecting your application. One example is the Windows Directory of Windows NT is WINNT while WINDOWS for Windows XP.
ProcessEntry32's szExeFile works well in Windows ME and below, you'll be able to get the complete path of the file. While if you're using Windows NT and XP, you have to use ModuleEntry32 instead of ProcessEntry32 in order for you to acquire complete path of the process running on your task manager. But of course Its off the topic which covers the difference of NT over XP.
Anything else? Thanx Smile | :)

How will I be able to get the IP address of the computer connecting to me? For example, I'm the server and there are quite a few computers that send files or interact to me. I need to get their IP address for me to use as their ID. I'm using MFC Sockets. Thanx in advance

The second argument of CAsyncSocket::Accept lpSockAddr is the address of a SOCKADDR structure in which you'll get the address of the connecting entity.

you can convert into xml like this
<section1>
<Key1>ABCD</Key1>
<Key2>20</Key2>
</section1>

now if you need tool/class to read and write it, this would be good start
