    (C++)What is the output produced by the program below?

    I tried going through the code in my head and on paper.

    I even duplicated this program in C++ (I had to modify the code since it just crashed outright) and yet I do not exactly get any one of these options.

  • In C++ why is 641 / 10 not 64.1?

    Kindly see the code below.

    If I enter the following:

    ship_mass = 640

    ship_volume = 10

    Then the ship floats.

    However

    ship_mass = 641

    ship_volume = 10

    The ship sinks (despite the result being 64.1 which means equal to the const)

    #include <iostream>

    using namespace std;

    int main()

    {

    char exitchar;

    const double water_density = 64.10;

    double ship_mass, ship_volume;

    cout << "Please enter the following details with regards to the ship...\n";

    cout << "Mass: ";

    cin >> ship_mass;

    cout << "Volume: ";

    cin >> ship_volume;

    if ((ship_mass / ship_volume) > water_density)

    cout << "The ship will sink.\n";

    else

    cout << "The ship will float.\n";

    cout << "Please enter any character and press RETURN to exit\n";

    cin >> exitchar;

    return 0;

    }

  • Why is 3.0 / 4.0 + 3 + 2 / 5 = 3.75?

    I am studying C++ and one example is 3.0 / 4.0 + 3 + 2 / 5 = 3.75.

    How is this calculated?

    If I use the Order of operations I get this:

    3.0 / 4.0 + 3 + 2 / 5

    0.75 + 3 + 0.4

    4.15

    If I do it in order this happens:

    3.0 / 4.0 + 3 + 2 / 5

    0.75 + 3 + 2 / 5

    3.75 + 2 / 5

    5.75 / 5

    1.15

    Maybe I've been at this for too long and need to take a break, but I really need to understand what happens here.

  • What can I expect from a hydrocelectomy with local anaesthesia?

    Since this question deals with a very sensitive topic I just want to first warn anybody reading this that the condition discussed here is not for sensitive viewers.

    In 2011 I had a left hemicolectomy done because my colon was longer than normal. The catheter UTI 2 weeks later. My GP treated this with an antibiotic and Urizone. About 4 months later a swelling started forming on my left side. The doctor said that it will subside.

    June last year (2014) swelling was the size of a golf ball. I went to see my surgeon. I had an ultrasound done and the hydrocele was diagnosed.

    The next day I saw a urologist. He did a urine test said the main cause was epididymis. He gave me a course of antibiotics and said I must apply heat to promote blood flow.

    He scheduled me for a cystoscopy to check for a possible stricture. Then I found out the medical aid dropped me and I cancelled any further treatment.

    By June this year the hydrocele was a tennis ball - uncomfortable, obvious through bulge in pants and hurting my right testis. I decided to go to a government hospital and after many appointments and tests (another ultrasound and a voiding cystourethrogram) The doctor said nothing else is wrong. I am now scheduled for a hydrocelectomy with local anaesthesia within a few days.

    Being a government hospital the doctor did not have the time to discuss the procedure with me so I am at a total loss as to what to expect before, during and after. I am South African, for the record.

  • Any comments on this gaming rig?

    4 years ago I bought myself a decent gaming PC for ZAR11000 with the following specs:

    Q8200 2.33GHz Quad Core

    4GB DDR2 800MHz RAM

    ASUS Rampage Formula Motherboard

    Forsa 9800GT graphics card

    EZcool 950W power supply

    Seagate 1TB harddrive (storage)

    Western Digital 160GB harddrive (operating system)

    Well since then my PC met lightning and I had to do a budget repair replacing the 9800GT with a Forsa GTS450 (192 bit bus and GDDR5 memory) and the ASUS P5QL-EM motherboard.

    I can't add more RAM because of the chipset limitation and my GPU needs an upgrade to run the latest games at max.

    So upgrade time:

    Core i5 3550 processor 3.3GHz

    Evga GTX560 2GB Superclocked

    8GB Corsair Vengeance RAM

    ASUS P8Z77-M motherboard

    120GB solid state drive (operating system)

    This will cost me ZAR10000 but due to being employed by a IT company I'll get off paying around ZAR75000

    I know this will seriously waste the latest games but I need regular and serious guys to give their opinions especially on the graphics card. I wanted to thake the ASUS GTX560 CU but a customer bought it and I built the guy's PC (P8Z77V-LX plus the graphics card and also a 3550) and we can't source ASUS cards any more but Evga instead. Any thoughts?

  • Is this PC luck even possible?

    I have a pretty expensive computer +- a year of age.

    A month ago I got ADSL and all that jazz (it connects with my ethernet port).

    Last night 2 sudden lightning strikes rang out basically on top of the house and the power tripped.

    After turning on the power I tried to start the PC...nothing, the modem was also dead.

    I had a lot of gadgets like a printer, scanner, DVD, router, monitor, PC and TV running from the same outlet.

    Only the router and PC was dead. My motherboard's lights flash(it is a rampage formula). I can smell the distinct odour of fried circuitry. I tested the surge protector, UPS and all those "lightning protectors" - strangely my PC's power supply is 100% fine.

    My conclusion is thus:

    *Lightning hits telephone line

    *Lightning travels to router

    *Router gets blasted

    *Surge travels to ethernet cable

    *Surge reaches PC's ethernet port and motherboard meets his fortune

    ===What a mess that is!

    The other PC in the house with its own router is fina as well as the telephone.

    Any ideas to if this might be the case and if insurance might cover the expenses, else it is one expensive white elephant!

    Thanks

  • Veiled chameleon crisis?

  • This is very critical!! Please help!!?

    My sister's cockatiel has super huge poops once a day. Yesterday I noticed she doesn't poop anymore. We looked and it appears that there is some type of flesh hanging out at the "rear end". It doesn't bleed. It appears to be painful. We pulled it out a few millimeters. She now poops some black, foul-smelling waste. The vet can't see us for 2 days. What can I do in the meantime to keep her stable???

    She is 1-and-a-half years old. She still eats a lot.

  • PLEASE help me!!! Major problem!?

    My PC is driving me mad.

    It suddenly shutted down and doesn't want to start up.

    The power and HDD lights are on, but the startup beep doesn't sound.

    The monitor doesn't switch on when I turn the PC on.

    The PSU, CPU, System and GPU fans are working.

    I suspect it is the HDD or my motherboard.

    My motherboard, GPU and PSU is 2 weeks old.

I know, because she permanently (you know what) wit other lesbians. She already meed 2 attempts to kill him. She now hired a black man to kill him. I know that, because the "assasin" visited him and told him he will be shot on the road by a taxi driving by. He doesn't want to lay a charge, since she doesn't have a driver's license and he gives her permission to drive. He can get into big trouble. We already "removed" the dogs out of harm's way.
