  • Ever experienced this?

    I've been in several relationships, but am single now. I be only ever been in love with one girl for the past 6 years. No matter who I date I always remember her. We had a major falling out approximately a year after getting to know each other. Do you think my feelings toward her are because I've never felt closure toward her? Or do you think it is because I have an idealized perspective of who I think she is?

    I really have no clue, I've tried other women, alcohol, and other things to fill this piece of me. But somehow I still feel that I love her. Should try and win her over or continue life searching for a solution which may or may not exist?

  • yahoo messaging requests?

    I get quite a few of these. Does this happen to you? I'm pretty sure they are all fake though! I sometimes accept them, because if it was a real person i think it would be cool to know about them.

  • since bool variables are technically a 1 or 0 can it interact with int variables?

    it seems like it could because 1 and 0 are both integers. But at the same time they are conflicting data types...

  • class compilations in c++ general questions?

    A header file for a class name AutoSales is titled AutoSales.h

    It contains the function PROTOTYPES and data information. Which of course is designated public and private respectfully.

    If you're functions are in a file AutoSales.cpp do you have to compile each of the files seperately?

    Because that is what i am trying to do but i am getting the following error.

    /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.3.2/../../../../lib/crt1.o: In function `_start':

    (.text+0x20): undefined reference to `main'

    collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

    if you can give me some sort of hint to solve this issue at least know where to start that would be a great help

  • looking for a specific manga which i forgot the name of description provided?

    ok so i don't remember character names but i can give you a pretty good description of what goes on....

    here goes:

    okay so the main character became the head of the tribe suceeding his father the previous head of the tribe. i think they are called like the tribe of the wind or something, anyway, he becomes head of the tribe by killing a rival clans embodiment of god(buffalo) the tribe was the tribe of the plains. Also the head tribe of the wind is like in love with some chick who was apparently taken from their village and offered as a sacrifice to the death god. He is trying to get her back , but the last few chapters i remember reading the clan of wind people were destroyed by the plains people in retaliation for killing buffalo. the tribe heads best friend his is one of the few people left alive, and the god of the wind people find him and declare him to be the new head. yeah thats about all i remember sorry

  • segmentation fault C++?

    im not familiar with giving the user an option to choose a file to use.

    in my project, as you can see i am attempting to get the name of the file i am using pico editor

    i created a file prog5 which contains my project and a data file called sewage.data

    so bascially i want it to work with out a seg fault... i could have posted the entire code but i know for a fact that the error in this block of coding or either where the file is located.......

    i am not wrong in thinking it should be in the same directory am i?

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    char file[MAX];

    cout<<"Enter the name of the data file>";

    cin>> file;

    if(measurements.fail())

    {

    cout<<" The file doesn't exist"<< endl;

    exit(0);

    }

    measurements.open("file", ios::in);

    getData(measurements, array_data_in, count);

    measurements.close();

    if i get rid of of the "file" and the cin statements to which it relates to and directly write:

    measurements.open("sewage.data", ios::in);

    the entire program works perfectly

    {

    variable = b;

    }

    int main()

    //call

    }

    i basically wanted to know when the pass by reference returned to main.

    is it when the function is finished or is it immediately after the variable b gets a value.

    dont worry about the program compiling. i know it wont, but i just need a concept answer thanks.

    a swift response would be appreciated cus i want to go to sleep soon >_<

    OKAY so basically this program is returning a false value for my boolean logic ( at least i think) the reason i say this is because the output, not matter what the input, always prints: the date entered followed by "is not a valid date."

    The second part of the question is causing me a bit more trouble......How many of the 625 combinations have at least 1 digit repeated.(the answer is 505) but i have no clue how they arrived at the ans. EXPLAIN THIS PART PLEASE.
