How to make and post Your CPU-Z Validation Link

N2Gaming — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 21:23:37 GMT

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this so if it needs to be moved then please place it in the correct Area. I often come accross new OCN members lacking the experience to Post a Valid CPU-Z Validation Link. So I made the instructions below. Enjoy.

Thank you,

Before you start you'll need to make sure you download and install the latest CPU-Z Version Found Here. Then you'll need to make sure your computers date and time are set correctly. After you have done all of this you are ready to begin w/the steps listed below.

CPU-Z Validation Instructions

Start CPU-Z and click on the about tab at the top of CPU-Z to open a seperate window for validation.
Click on the Validation tab in the next window that opens up.
Type in a valid Email Address in the email field.
Click on the submit tab to the right of your email address you just entered.
Find the CPU-Z Banner BB code at the bottom of your new CPU-Z validation.
Highlight the CPU-Z Banner BB code by double left clicking in the URL listed.
Right click on the highlighted BB Code and select copy.
Open the web page you wish to post your CPU-Z Link to.
Now Using your mouse right click in the page you want to paste your CPU-Z Link into and select Paste.
Your CPU-Z link should appear as mine did in Step 10 " Roman Numeral X ".
Click on the Post button and your CPU-Z Validation Link should be posted and properly linked for the every one to view just like mine listed below. :thumb:

high card game c++

computeruler — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 01:12:17 GMT

For schoo we have to make a program that outputs 5 cards and says what the highest is like

your cards are 1 6 3 A K
your highest is A
the computers cards are 4 5 2 Q J
The computers highest card is Q
You win!

We have to do it using a loop, so we cant just use 5 randoms. Now the problem I was having at school was that it would sometimes just output 4 numbers instead of 5. I tried to recreate the code here at home but it didn't work so well. Although I do have visual c++ 08 express edition and at school they have a 05 version. But anyways heres what I have do far

Code:

#include 

#include 

using namespace std;

int main ()

{

    int random1=0, random2=0, count=5;



cout<<"Your cards are ";



    do

    {

        

        srand(time(0));

            random1 = rand()%14+1;

        count++;

            

        cout<<""<


        switch(random1)

        {

            

            class 2;

                cout<<"2";

            break;

            class 3;

                cout<<"3";

            break;

            class 4;

                cout<<"4";

            break;

            class 5;

                cout<<"5";

            break;

            class 6;

                cout<<"6";

            break;

            class 7;

                cout<<"7";

            break;

            class 8;

                cout<<"8";

            break;

            class 9;

                cout<<"9"<
            break;

            class 10;

                cout<<"10";

            break;

            class 11;

                cout<<"J";

            break;

            class 12;

                cout<<"Q";

            break;

            class 13;

                cout<<"K";

            break;

            class 14;

                cout<<"A";

            break;

            }

    }while (count < 0);



return 0;

}

now Im getting tons of errors for some reason.

C re-looping question!

MOCAMBO — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 00:54:24 GMT

Ok so here is my program below, basically a simple conversion program and I just wanted to know how I would make the initial options re-loop if the user does not choose any of the 1-4 options given .

Code:

#include



int main()



{



int choice=0;

int choice1=0;

int lengthchoice=0;

int weightchoice=0;

int tempchoice=0;

float km;

float m;

float inch;

float feet;

float lbs;

float gm;

float kilo;

float cel;

float fah;

float kel;

printf("\n 1) Length");

printf("\n 2) Weight");

printf("\n 3) Temperature");

printf("\n 4) Exit\n");



scanf("\n%i", &choice);



if (choice==1)

        scanf("%f", &feet);

        inch=feet*0.0833;

break;

}

}

else if(choice==2)

{

printf("\nWhich of the following length conversions would you like to make: ");

printf("\n 1) Pounds > Grams");

printf("\n 2) Grams > Kilograms");

printf("\n 3) Kilograms > Grams\n");

case 1: printf("\nEnter your desired number to convert: ");

        scanf("%f", &lbs);

break;

}

}

else if(choice==3)

{

printf("\nWhich of the following length conversions would you like to make: ");

printf("\n 1) Fahrenheit > Celsius");

printf("\n 2) Celsius > Fahrenheit");

printf("\n 3) Celsius > Kelvin\n");

remote shutdown

newbie1911 — Fri, 13 Nov 2009 21:37:44 GMT

would it be possible to make a c++ app that waits for a signal from a specific port and when it gets it - shutdowns the pc?
im pretty sure its possible so the the real question is - how hard would it be to make this?

Java Web Browser

k1ngcor3y — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 23:54:43 GMT

Me (and a few friends) are going to try to build a web browser using java. that we can implement on mobile devices.

Anyone know where I would start? :confused::confused:

Simple VB code

LemonSlice — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 19:39:00 GMT

So does anyone know how to make a code that looks for the existence of another drive on the computer in a specific location? Say I have text.txt on the C: drive. I want to make an IF statement that goes "if text.txt is at C:\ is true, then ....., else". So how would I do that in VB 2008?

Array program in C

loonyt7 — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 21:51:28 GMT

I have the following code and I am not sure that its working right. I am using C. The final result is that the program is suppose to give me the length of each string that is entered that is the second for loop. I do not think this part is working right. I have gone from having no code to what is below on my own I just need a little help making sure that this is correct. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Below are the instructions that I am having problems with.

Each time the name is read I then have to measure the length and allocate a dynamical string large enough to hold a copy of it. You will then copy the contents of buffer into this newly allocated string and add its
address to the array names. Once you are done filling the array names, each of its element should contain the address of a dynamically allocated copy of each word entered by the user. You will iterate over names and display these strings with a message.Once done, you will deallocate the memory you allocated

I am getting closer. The code now gives me a value of 2 for any input I put in it doesn't matter the length of word.

Code:

#include 

#include 



int str_length(char* names);

void copy(char *buffer, const char *names);



int main(void)

{

    

    int n = 0;

    char names[n];

    int i = 0;

    char buffer[256];

    

    printf("How many names to store: ");

    scanf("%d", &n);

    

    for( i = 0; i < n; i++)

    {

         printf("names[%d] = ", i);

         scanf("%s", buffer);

         copy(buffer, names);



    }

    

    for( i = 0; i < n; i++)

    {

         printf("buffer[%d] = %s %d\n", i, buffer, str_length);

    }

    

    

        

    

    system("PAUSE");        

    return 0;

}



int str_length(char* names)

{

    char* start = names;

    

    while ( *names++);

    

    return names-start;

    

}



void copy(char *buffer, const char *names)

{

   for ( ; ( *buffer = *names ) != '\0'; buffer++, names++ ) ;

 

}

My simple Fahrenheit to Celcius converter in C#

gonX — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 12:21:45 GMT

I thought I'd make it easy for people to look at how C# code works. It's overly commented, for people who is not familiar to programming or C# to know what is actually going on:

Code:

using System;

using System.Collections.Generic;

using System.Text;



//

// Name: Sebastian 'gonX' Jensen

// Date: 4. Nov 09

// Program: A simple Fahrenheit from/to Celcius converter

// Known to compile fine in: Microsoft Visual Express C# 2008

// Comments:    In this program I've used simple commands which should be fairly straightforward to understand.

//              Please notice that I've moved Main() to the bottom of the document so that it does not complain

//              that it's missing some functions that I'm calling from Main(). Yes, I could have assigned them

//              earlier in the program, but this is less confusing to look at.

//              Please throw me a PM on Overclock.net if you do not understand parts of my code - my username is gonX.

//



namespace switcheslawl

{

    class Program

    {

        // Here's an example of how Main() is not the first variable in the program.

        static void toFahrenheit()

        {

            // Let's assign the variables we need. We use double so that we don't get unnecessary rounding.

            string temporary;

            double input;

            double temperature;



            // Clear it so that it doesn't look messy.

            Console.Clear();



            // Here I'll be telling the user to input his temperature in degrees celcius.

            // Please notice that I am not using Console.WriteLine(), but instead Console.Write()

            // I'm using a temporary variable as calculating with a string is troublesome,

            // it is parsed to a double throughout the code though.

            // This is what makes C# different from C++ - in C++ I would not have needed to parse it.

            Console.Write("Please enter the temperature in �C: ");

            temporary = Console.ReadLine();

            input = double.Parse(temporary);

            temperature = input * 1.8 + 32;



            // The :N2 tells the program to only output 2 decimals. They're rounded off, which is not that

            // good for people who actively work with numbers, but it'll work for most people.

            Console.Write("\n{0 :N2} �C is {1 :N2} �F\nPress a button to continue\n", input, temperature);

            Console.ReadKey();

        }



        static void toCelcius()

        {

            // All this is the same as in the toFahrenheit() static, except that the formula for calculating is different.

            string temporary;

            double input;

            double temperature;

            Console.Clear();

            Console.Write("Please enter the temperature in �F: ");

            temporary = Console.ReadLine();

            input = double.Parse(temporary);

            temperature = (input - 32) / 1.8;

            Console.Write("\n{0 :N2} �F is {1 :N2} �C\nPress a button to continue\n", input, temperature);

            Console.ReadKey();

        }

        static void Main()

        {

            // Here I have to assign option to 0, otherwise it'd complain about option not being assigned

            string option = "0";



            // I can type "stop" to stop the program.

            while (option != "stop")

            {

                Console.Clear();

                Console.WriteLine("What do you want to calculate to?\n\nF. To Fahrenheit\nC. To Celcius\nstop to stop.");

                option = Console.ReadLine();



                // Most people should be acquainted with switches if they've been programming before. This is fairly similar to C++ syntax.

                switch (option.ToLower())

                {

                    case "f":

                        toFahrenheit();

                        break;

                    case "c":

                        toCelcius();

                        break;

                    default:

                        option = "stop";

                        break;

                }

            }

        }

    }

}

Suggestions to clean up my code wouldn't be bad either :)

Pac-Man and Space Invaders... In Excel

Yep, someone has made a pacman and space invaders clone in Microsoft excel doc form.

On an aside, though Geocities is dead, these games live on at the Geocites.jp host.
Grab it now before the good people at Yahoo notice and axe the Japanese service too ;)

Selection sorting Arrays.

tofunater — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 21:44:35 GMT

Here I am again, and today I'm trying to figure out how to apply the selection sort algorithm to a group of arrays that I have.

-1st array consists of 30 names
-2,3,and 4 consist of separate statistics relating to each name.

I have to sort the names alphabetically, A-Z, while simultaneously swapping the corresponding stats from the other three arrays.

I've barely hobbled through the rest of my arrays assignment, and this one has me stumped.
Can anyone help me?

Here is the rest of the program that I've developed so far.
Function 3 is where I need help.

Code:

#include 

#include 

#include 

#include 

using namespace std;



int buildArrays(int[], int[], int[]);

void printArrays( string[], int[], int[], int[], int);

void sortArrays( string[],int[], int[], int[], int);

{

int goals[NUM_PLAY];

"Ben Eager", "Matt Walker", "Adam Burish",

"Aaron Johnson", "Niklas Hjalmarsson", "Brent Sopel",

"Jack Skille", "Jordan Hendry", "Pascal Pelletier",

"Tim Brent", "Jacob Dowell" };

int numberOfPlayers = 0;

numberOfPlayers = buildArrays(goals, assists, shots);

printArrays(players, goals, assists, shots, numberOfPlayers);

sortArrays(players, goals, assists, shots, numberOfPlayers);

system ("pause");



return 0;

}







//Function 1 constructs the arrays



int buildArrays(int goals[], int assists[], int shots[])

{

ifstream inFile;

inFile.open( "averages.txt" );

if ( inFile.fail() )

{

cout << "input file did not open";

exit(0);

}

int num;

int count = 0;

while( inFile )

{

inFile >> num; 

goals[count] = num;

inFile >> num;

assists[count] = num;

inFile >> num;

shots[count] = num;

++count;

}

inFile.close();

return count;

}

//Function 2 prints out the data 

void printArrays( string players[], int goals[], int assists[], int shots[], int numberOfPlayers)

{ 

cout<<"\nChicago Blackhawks 2008-2009 Player Stats";

cout<<"\nPlayer Goals Assists Points Shots Shooting%";

for(int count = 0; count


cout<
<
<
<
<
<
<< goals[count] + assists[count]

<
<
<
<
}

}

//Function 3 sorts in ascending order based on names

void sortArrays( string players[], int goals[], int assists[], int shots[], int numberOfPlayers)

{

//!!!!Selection Sort Function Here!!!!
