Why is it that the last 'value' is not 7, but that number in sci. notation??
Be carreful when looping through your array. The loop has to start from 0 to size-1.
So instead of using less-than-or-equal:
for (int a = 0; a <= arraySize; a++)
You should use less-than:
for (int a = 0; a < arraySize; a++)
The array size is declared to be 6 elements and then 7 elements [0...6] are placed in it.
Redeclare array size to be 7 and then change all the <= to < in the loops.

I have this section of code for generating an array of randomly generated and sorted ints, but the nosearch cin quits the program. Calling Cin.ignore() & cin.clear() before and/or after this line does not correct this, no error message is shown, the program just quits as soon as I hit enter on that section. This is the only statement to do this.
#include <iostream>
#include <stdlib.h>

hi guys i recently started learning C++ and today i got a problem with counting divisors in this program
i want my program to count the number of divisors exactly but the output show weird numbers :/
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main(void)
{
int Lowest;
int Highest;
int count = 0;
cout << "Enter The Lowest Number Of Series: ";
cin >> Lowest;
cout << "Enter The Highest Number Of Series: ";
cin >> Highest;
cout << "\n Number -> Divisors ((count)) \n";
for (int i = Lowest; i <= Highest; i++)
{
cout << " " << i << " ->";
for (int j = 1; j <= i; j++)
{
if (i % j == 0)
{
count++; // WTF
cout << " " << j;
}
}
cout << " (( count:" << count << " )) " << endl;
}
return 0;
}
for example out put for Lower=1 to Highest=10 is like this:
Enter The Lowest Number Of Series: 1
Enter The Highest Number Of Series: 10
Number -> Divisors ((count))
1 -> 1 (( count:1 ))
2 -> 1 2 (( count:3 ))
3 -> 1 3 (( count:5 ))
4 -> 1 2 4 (( count:8 ))
5 -> 1 5 (( count:10 ))
6 -> 1 2 3 6 (( count:14 ))
7 -> 1 7 (( count:16 ))
8 -> 1 2 4 8 (( count:20 ))
9 -> 1 3 9 (( count:23 ))
10 -> 1 2 5 10 (( count:27 ))
Do you guys have any idea What is Wrong?
As noted by #cigien's comment, your count variable never gets reset to zero so it just keeps counting up. Reset it between each iteration of the outer loop. Better still, move the declaration to the closest place where it's used:
#include <iostream>
using std::cin;
using std::cout; // only using what you need
int main()
{
int Lowest;
int Highest;
cout << "Enter The Lowest Number Of Series: ";
cin >> Lowest;
cout << "Enter The Highest Number Of Series: ";
cin >> Highest;
cout << "\n Number -> Divisors ((count)) \n";
for (int i = Lowest; i <= Highest; i++)
{
int count = 0; // <-- initialize to zero on every pass
cout << " " << i << " ->";
for (int j = 1; j <= i; j++)
{
if (i % j == 0)
{
count++;
cout << " " << j;
}
}
cout << " (( count:" << count << " )) \n";
}
return 0;
}
I have a homework question. I need help displaying my results in this format:
Price1 Price2 Price3
Price4 Price5 Price6
Price7 Price8 Price9
How can I display the results in the desired format in a cout statement? Here's my code:
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
// use a constant Declaration
const int SIZE = 9;
// use a variable Declaration
float prices[SIZE];
cout << fixed << setprecision(2);
// prompt user to enter all 9 values :
for(int i = 0; i < SIZE; i++)
{
cout << "Enter the value: " << i + 1 << "-> ";
cin >> prices[i];
}
cout << "\n----------------------------------------------------\n";
// Display all values in the array
for(int i = 0; i < SIZE; i++)
{
cout << "value Entered " << i + 1 << "\t\t " << right << setw(7) << prices[i] << endl;
}
}
This is the output when running the code:
Enter the value: 1-> 21
Enter the value: 2-> 34
Enter the value: 3-> 54
Enter the value: 4-> 12
Enter the value: 5-> 65
Enter the value: 6-> 34
Enter the value: 7-> 76
Enter the value: 8-> 88
Enter the value: 9-> 90

int index = 0;
while (index < SIZE)
{
for (int ctr = 0; ctr < 3; ++ctr)
{
cout << "values Entered " << index + 1 << " " << prices[index] << "\t\t";

I'm trying to make a Sudoku puzzle generator for a school project, and I have most of the coding and logic worked out for the program, it's just that the random number generator I'm using to assign values to the Sudoku grid are generating numbers far out of the appropriate range, and I can't quite figure out why it's not functioning appropriately.
Here's the code for the number generator:
int Sudoku::RNG(int range, int start){
int randNum;
randNum = (rand()%range+start);
return randNum;
}
I've also seeded with
srand(time(NULL));
at the very start of my main method.
And here's the code for the method which populates the Sudoku grid with numbers from the RNG() function:
void Sudoku::gridPopulate(int grid [9][9]){
Solution s;
int num;
bool safe;
for(int i=0;i<9;i++){
for(int j=0;j<9;j++){
do{
safe = false;
num= RNG(9,1);
if(s.rowCheck(grid, i, num)&& s.colCheck(grid, j, num) && s.gridCheck(grid, i, j, num)){
grid[i][j] = num;
cout << "Number entered into grid" << endl;
safe = true;
}
}while(safe);
}
}
Main Method:
int main()
{
//Program Start
srand(time(NULL));
int difficulty;
int choice;
int grid[9][9];
cout << "Welcome to my Sudoku puzzle generator! \nTest your mental muscles and see if you can solve the puzzle!" << endl;
//Puzzle Generator
Sudoku game;
game.gridPopulate(grid);
cout << "board populated"<< endl;
cout << "Successful board made" << endl;
game.displayBoard(grid);
}
Example of erroneous Sudoku board below (formatting is off because of the huge numbers, just ignore the dashes and vertical lines):

The number's it's giving me are sometimes very large, sometimes not. It's kinda baffling me at the moment, any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!
EDIT/UPDATE #1:
I've revised my gridPopulate code, and I've added in a few cout statements for troubleshooting. The method will now stay on each individual array element until it is populated, the main issue I'm running into now is that the code will get stuck in the do/while statement where the RNG() is occurring. I'm using the counter to track how many RNG iterations it goes through before passing a safe value into the grid. The problem is that the RNG is going through way too many iterations before happening to generate a safe value, sometimes thousands of iterations before moving on. At some point it will just get stuck endlessly generating random numbers without being able to move on.'
void Sudoku::gridPopulate(int grid [9][9]){
Solution s;
int num;
do{
for(int i=0;i<9;i++){
for(int j=0;j<9;j++){
int counter = 0;
do{
srand(time(NULL));
num = RNG(9,1);
counter++;
cout << "RNG attempts: " << counter << endl;
}while(!(s.rowCheck(grid, i, num)&& s.colCheck(grid, j, num) && s.gridCheck(grid, i, j, num)));
grid[i][j]=num;
cout << grid[i][j] << endl;
cout << "Row #: " << i << endl;
cout << "Col #: " << j << endl;
}//end j loop
displayBoard(grid);
}//end i loop
displayBoard(grid);
}while(!validityCheck(grid));
Here's my displayBoard method too, though I don't think it is correlated to the problem.
void Sudoku::displayBoard(int grid[9][9]){
/**********************************************************/
cout << " ----------------------" << endl;

Nothing wrong with the RNG function, all we need is debugging skills
## Try this to see what is the immediate value of the grid[i][j] ##
`void Sudoku::void gridPopulate(int grid[9][9])

int num;
bool safe;
for (int i = 0; i < 9; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < 9; j++) {
do {
safe = false;
num = RNG(9, 1);
if (s.rowCheck(grid, i, num) && s.colCheck(grid, j, num) && s.gridCheck(grid, i, j, num)) {
grid[i`enter code here`][j] = num;
//cout << "Number entered into grid" << endl;
safe = true;

} while (safe);

I'm trying to solve one of the questions on a task sheet I've been received, to help me further in my understanding of C++ code from my class.
The question is (and I quote):
Write a program that:
Asks the user to enter 10 numbers between 1 and 5 into an array and displays the array on screen
Creates a second array of size 5 and fills it with zeros
Counts how many 1s, 2s, , … 5s have been entered into the first array and stores this number in the second array.
Displays the second array as shown in the example below.
The problem is how to go about checking how many times a number was entered. I was thinking of a for loop, but the way I wrote it is fundamentally incorrect, so I find myself struggling to see the mistake I am having. Perhaps I am missing something simple? Any help would be great.
Here is my (terrible) for loop attempt, so you can see my error.
#include <iostream>
#include <windows.h>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
int input[10];
const int MAX_NO = 5;
int COUNT[5] = { 0,0,0,0,0 };
int count = 10;
for (int i = 0; i < count; i++)
{
cout << "Please enter a number for value " << i + 1 << " :";
cin >> input[i];
while (input[i] < 1 || input[i] > 5)
{
cout << "Error: Enter another number between 1 and 5: ";
cin >> input[i];
}
}
cout << endl << "You entered ";
for (int i = 0; i < count; i++)
{
cout << input[i] << " ";
}
cout << "\n";
// show how many times 1 number appears
for (int i = 1; i <= 5; i++)
{
if (input[i] == i)
{
COUNT[i]++;
}
}
for (int i = 0; i < MAX_NO; i++)
{
cout << i + 1 << " appears " << COUNT[i]
<< " times in the input" << endl;
}
cout << endl;
system("pause");
return 0;
}
Put
COUNT[ input[i]-1 ]++;
in your first loop (after validation). Once you do that, you don't need a second loop to tally up the results.
This works from the inside out by first getting what input[i] is, then using it to modify the (input[i]-1)'th location in the COUNT array. If the user enters 4 on the first run of the loop, then i == 0 and input[i] == 4. Since arrays are 0-based, it will increment COUNT[input[i]-1] which in this case is COUNT[4-1] == COUNT[3].
After your initial loop runs the number of 1's will be in COUNT[0], the number of 2's will be in COUNT[1] and so on.
#include <iostream>
#include <windows.h>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
//declare a constant values
int input[10];
int count = 10; //all constant MUST be in capital letters
//second array filled with zeros
const int MAX_NO = 5;
int COUNT[5] = { 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 };
//ask user for 10 input values
for (int i = 0; i < count; i++)
{
cout << "Please enter a number for value " << i + 1 << " :";
cin >> input[i];
//check if input numbers are between 1 and 5 inclusive
while (input[i] < 1 || input[i] > 5)
{
cout << "Error: Enter another number between 1 and 5: ";
cin >> input[i];
}
/* show how many times 1 number appears.
this section should be in the main loop which would enable the program to check how many times a
number is entered so that it is stored in the second array. changed i to secondCount because this is the counting index of the second array not the first which you've called i (one of the reason you'd all zero as output when u ran your code)*/
for (int secondCount = 1; secondCount <= MAX_NO; secondCount++)
{
if (input[i] == secondCount)
{
COUNT[secondCount-1]+= 1; //use minus 1 from i and increment. += 1 is the same as COUNT++
}
}
}
//display number entered in the first array
cout << endl << "You entered ";
for (int i = 0; i < count; i++)
{
cout << input[i] << " ";
}
cout << "\n";
//display how many times a number is entered.
for (int secondCount = 0; secondCount < MAX_NO; secondCount++)
{
cout << secondCount + 1 << " appears " << COUNT[secondCount]
<< " times in the input" << endl;
}
cout << endl;
system("pause");
return 0;
}
OUTPUT:
Please enter a number for value 1 = 1
Please enter a number for value 2 = 1
Please enter a number for value 3 = 1
Please enter a number for value 4 = 2
Please enter a number for value 5 = 3
Please enter a number for value 6 = 2
Please enter a number for value 7 = 4
Please enter a number for value 8 = 4
Please enter a number for value 9 = 3
Please enter a number for value 10 = 2
You entered: 1 1 1 2 3 2 4 4 3 2
1 appears 3 times in the input
2 appears 3 times in the input
3 appears 2 times in the input
4 appears 2 times in the input
5 appears 0 times in the input
for (int i = 1; i <= 5; i++)
{
if (input[i] == i)
{
COUNT[i]++;
}
}
Let's examine what this is doing. It starts by checking input[1]. (This should be input[0] as array indices start at 0). Then it checks if input[1] is equal to 1. If it is, then it increments COUNT[1].
Next, it checks input[2]. Then it checks if input[2] is equal to 2. If it is, it increments COUNT[2]. And so on until it has gone through input[5].
Do you see the problem with this? You're only checking the first 5 inputs and only checking them against a single value.
