Re: help needed for encoding / saving "*.raw" images.

You've got access to the source, haven't you? That should make writing a raw image saver simple enough.

I might be wrong but it doesn't makes sense to write an image back to raw format. Raw file is supposed to contain the raw unprocessed data from a camera. If you process it then its no longer raw data, and you shouldn't save to as raw format.

Euler's Contant To The X Power

How do you make a program in C++ that computes for this:

e^x = 1 + (x/1!) + ([x^2]/2!) + ([x^3]/3!) + ... + ([x^n]/n!)

where e is the euler's contant, x is the input

there should be 500 addends (so n = 499)

Thank you Big Grin | :-D

also, you could have a look here[^]

I don't understand what I have to do with the link you gave me. I really need this tonight. Please please please help me. I'm a noob in C++

I gave you the solution to get it calculated easily, by using the exp() function.

the link was an additional tip to see it used in a real context.

You need to use a bignum library to calc the large exponents/factorals and maintain precision.

The idea that I can be presented with a problem, set out to logically solve it with the tools at hand, and wind up with a program that could not be legally used because someone else followed the same logical steps some years ago and filed for a patent on it is horrifying.

Hi,

this is elementary.

as always, express each term of the series as a product of the previous term and some factors;
that will give you:
- the most efficient way to perform the calculations
- the fact that the terms decrease as soon as n exceeds x
- a reasonable test for early termination of the series (for small x that is)

there is no need for special libraries, just use doubles.

Hi everyone...
Could anyone please tell me how to check for an keyboard event in win32 consol application...
I have an while loop
while(1)
{
}

I need to check each time if I have pressed a particular key....say "h"

Thanks in advance

thanks...
But those are blocked call.....I want something like this...
My while loop keeps running.....and it checks for a key...if it was pressd it exits....But if it wasnot pressed also, my while loop keep running(iterating..)
Basically i need a nonblocking function....asynchronous

Thanks

You could try using _kbhit[^].

Use _kbhit() in combination with getch().

I need to get the domain name for the currently logged on user.
::GetUserName gets me the user name, but how do I get the domain name for that user?

Thanks!

With, Win32_LogonSession you will get 'LogonId' use this logonId to query the Win32_LoggedOnUser. After querying 'Win32_LoggedOnUser' you will get all the fields, like - Domain, Name etc

Use NetWkstaUserGetInfo[^] and retrieve level 1 information, as below. Requires Windows NT 3.1, 2000, XP, Vista.

#include <Windows.h>
#include <lm.h>

std::wstring GetDomainName()
{
   WKSTA_USER_INFO_1* workstationInfo;
   const NET_API_STATUS status = NetWkstaUserGetInfo(NULL, 1, (LPBYTE*)&workstationInfo);
   if (status == NERR_Success)
   {
      return workstationInfo->wkui1_logon_domain;
      NetApiBufferFree((LPBYTE*)&workstationInfo);
   }
   return std::wstring();
}

Another option is the environment variables USERDNSDOMAIN and USERDOMAIN.

Hope that helps.

void test()
{
vector<CString> stldmlist;
CString a;

FILE *fp=fopen("E:\\log1.txt","r");
char str[1000];

while(!feof(fp))
{
fscanf(fp,"%s\n",str);
a=str;
stldmlist.push_back(a);
}
fclose(fp);

AfxMessageBox("Memory");
}

UINT32 main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
CString obj;
AfxMessageBox("Start ");
test();
AfxMessageBox("End");
return 1;
}
