My physics teacher is getting our class to do an experiment.

We needed to measure the amount of time it would take a marble to roll down a slope at various distances, then plot the results on a graph.

I put distance on the x-axis of this graph, because he said that the independent variable should be on the x-axis, and the dependant variable on the y-axis.

I believe that distance is the independent variable, because it is the thing that we are changing, and that time is the dependent variable, because we are measuring the effect distance has on time.

The teacher said I was wrong for having distance on the x-axis, and it should instead be on the y-axis.

Why does distance have to be on the y-axis, it contradicts my previous teachings..

Hello, I'm looking at creating a data type called BFString. I want it to be able to be initalized like BFString text = "This text.";.

I figured it would need to inherit char *.

This is the code I have so far (down a few lines), however to change the text, you need to write text.text = "text here";

and I want to be able to not need to call the .text and just set the text by writing BFString thetext = "text here";

Anyway, here's the code:

class BFString {

public:

char *text;

};

int main() {

BFString thetext;

thetext.text = "hi";

cout << thetext.text;

getchar();

}

Just curious, but I noticed that I had some thin black lines on my back teeth. I haven't really noticed it, and I last went to the dentist in November, and they did a x ray, but they said that no further treatment was required. I'm going to the dentist on Wednesday and just want to know what to expect

I have 3 static chars:

static char prevtext[14];

static char text[] = "7";

static char finaltext[];

I have a GetWindowText method that grabs the text from a created edit control and places it into prevtext, but I would like finaltext to merge prevtext and text together. How do I do this?

I was wondering how you shutdown windows in Visual basic.NET. I know about the shell method, but I thought I'd try the ExitWindowsEx API. But I don't have a clue how to use it. I want to click a button and the computer turns off.

I was wondering how you can use the to command in Visual Basic. Its just, i'm making a game, and I need to know the location of the Picture Box. How do I use the to command because so far my code looks like this:

If PictureBox1.location.y = 45 and PictureBox1.location.x = (329 to 396)

It keeps saying a error at the to statement saying ')' expected at the to command.

Any Ideas would be greateful.

Hello there, I am looking at getting a motherboard, but it says that it supports DDR2-800/667 Non ECC, Un buffered Memory. I don't know if the memory has to be Non-ECC and Un buffered?

I was wondering if it was possible to increase the video memory for virtual pc
