int num1;
Console.WriteLine("Accept number:");
num1 = Convert.ToInt32(Console.ReadLine());
if (num1 == 0 || num1 == 1)
{
Console.WriteLine(num1 + " is not prime number");
Console.ReadLine();
}
else
{
for (int a = 2; a <= num1 / 2; a++)
{
if (num1 % a == 0)
{
Console.WriteLine(num1 + " is not prime number");
return;
}
}
Console.WriteLine(num1 + " is a prime number");
Console.ReadLine();
}
Heres my question.
looking at the if statement
if (num1%a==0)
num1 is not a prime. I am having a tough time understanding why that is.
|
|
|
|
|
Correct. If a number % anotherNumber == 0, (assuming anotherNumber is not 1 or the number itself), its not a prime.
6 % 3 = 0 means that 6 is divisible by 3, so 6 is not a prime.
|
|
|
|
|
Console.Write("Enter a Number : ");
int num;
num = Convert.ToInt32(Console.ReadLine());
int k;
k = 0;
for (int i = 1; i <= num; i++)
{
if (num % i == 0)
{
k++;
}
}
if (k == 2)
{
Console.WriteLine("Entered Number is a Prime Number and the Largest Factor is {0}",num);
}
else
{
Console.WriteLine("Not a Prime Number");
}
Console.ReadLine();
you seem to be very smart. so heres one last question for you. In this situation, what does the k stand for? why is it that if k=2 then the number that was entered is prime?
|
|
|
|
|
Its keeping track of how many factors it found (numbers that divide in evenly). If its exactly 2, then it has to be 1 and the number itself.

hi
how can i get number from a string like this :
<li ID='45'>
just using c#
thankyou
|
|

You can use a Regular Expression to retrieve this. The expression is as simple as \d
|
|
|
|

Great resource for RegEx's useful to convert from many formats to many numeric types: [^].
Try this:
private string getID = @"'\d+'";
private Regex rxGetID;
private char[] trimQuote = new[] {'\''};
private int? htmlToInt(string match)
{
rxGetID = new Regex(getID, RegexOptions.Compiled);
string result = rxGetID.Match(match).Value.Trim(trimQuote);
int intResult;
return (Int32.TryParse(result, out intResult))
? intResult
: (int?) null;
}
private void Test()
{
rxGetID = new Regex(getID,RegexOptions.Compiled);
int? result = htmlToInt("<li> ID='45'");
if (result != null)
{
}
else
{
}
}

I've seen libraries for custom YouTube applications on the Internet.
Can I write my own YouTube program that will run on my XBox 360?
Thanks

Thank you! Great link.
Do you know if we are allowed to sell anything we create for XBox?

The Dreamspark link says:
"We also provide you with a developer dashboard so you can manage all aspects of how your app or game appears in either marketplace, monitor downloads, and track how much money you’ve earned." So I'd say that was a "yes"

Dreamspark wants me to be a student to download and I am not a student.

But if you can sell stuff via the Dreamspark scheme, you can sell it via other schemes as well - just MS may change the percentage they take from each sale.

I'm getting this error message on my laptop (win7 64bit/visual studio 2012 express), but not my desktop (win7 64bit/visual studio 2012 pro), code is unchanged.
This is happening when my code runs through Quote: var versionPtr = GetPropellerVersion();
Which is a dll import call via the code below, so it has something to do with the unmanaged code, but I'm a bit confused as to why? I believe the dll is 32 bit, so I've set the project to force x86, but I'm unsure as to what else could cause this? The project is set to 'copy always' the dll as well. I've also tried it in debug and release mode, same conflicting results.
Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks for reading.

Hi,
I had to upload it from my machine, it's a pdf. If you're sketched out about downloading a random pdf, I copied the text below and pasted it in a code block, it's the same thing, just not as pretty as the pdf.

Parallax Propellent
The Parallax Propellent software is a Windows-based tool for compiling and downloading to the Parallax Propeller chip. Propellent is available as both a library (Propellent.dll) and as an executable (Propellent.exe).
ï‚·ï€ The Propellent Library (DLL) is for software developers to link into applications enabling immediate support of the Propeller using the same functions as the Parallax-made Propeller Tool development software.
ï‚·ï€ The Propellent Executable (EXE) is a program that includes the Propellent Library within it and provides many of the same functions to anyone wishing for command-line support of the Propeller chip.
This document is written for the Propellent Library. For details about the Propellent Executable, see the "Propellent Executable.pdf" document, or run the executable with the '/help' switch. For more information on the
Parallax Propeller chip and tools, please visit http:
Features of the Propellent Library:
ï‚·ï€ Can download Propeller Application images (.binary or .eeprom) to Propeller chips.
ï‚·ï€ Can compile Propeller source (.spin) for downloading, for saving as a binary or eeprom image, for retrieval of source document, or just for syntax checking.
ï‚·ï€ Can run with full, limited, or no visual feedback.
ï‚·ï€ Includes the Propeller Tool's multi-threaded serial port handling and Propeller chip communication functionality.
ï‚·ï€ Includes the Propeller Tool's dialogs for indicating serial port access and download progress as well as the user-customizable serial port search options.
ï‚·ï€ Automatically stores user-modified preferences in the Windows Registry for use in future sessions. This can be disabled if desired.
ï‚·ï€ Allows access to current list of available serial ports.
ï‚·ï€ Allows calling application to view and/or specify preferences such as Library Path, Reset Signal (DTR, RTS, or both) and Serial Search Method (AUTO or specific port).
ï‚·ï€ Supports Win2K (and later) operating systems.
New in Propellent Library v1.3
For users of the previous Propellent Library (v1.2):
1) Fixed bug in SetSerialSearchRules that prevented the rule strings from being properly validated, cleaned, and updated.
For users of the previous Propellent Library (v1.1):
1) GetPropellerVersion has been updated to return a PChar instead of a LongWord. See details below.
2) New routines, GetGUIMode and SetGUIMode, allow manipulation of the amount of GUI-based messages that display during normal operation. See details below.
3) SaveImage routine now automatically creates any non-existing folders listed in the Filename path. See details below.
Propellent Library API
To use the Propellent Library (Propellent.dll):
1) Store the Propellent.dll file in your application's path.
2) Link the Propellent.dll library into your application either statically or dynamically, as desired, using whatever means required by your development tools.
3) Call InitPropellent to initialize internal library settings and specify options.
4) Call other routines as desired to get/set options, compile, find a Propeller chip and download to it.
5) Call FinalizePropellent, before unloading library or terminating application, to clean up settings and free memory used by the Propellent Library.
Important:
To Compile (with the CompileSource call; see below) the library folder path must first be set either by a previous session or by a call to SetLibraryPath.
1
Library API:
Calling Conventions: All library routines should be called using "cdecl" format.
Types: Boolean = True/False.
Byte = 8-bit integer.
LongWord = 32-bit unsigned integer or pointer.
PChar = 32-bit pointer to zero-terminated character string.
Pointer = 32-bit pointer to data.
Routine (parameters) Returns Description
InitPropellent (WinHandle, StorePrefs, RegPath) nothing REQUIRED. This routine initializes critical internal items for proper library function. This MUST be the first call made to the Propellent Library and
should be done only once per library loading (if dynamically linked) or application initialization (if statically linked).
WinHandle (LongWord) : Handle to calling application's main window.
StorePrefs (Boolean) : True = Propellent library automatically stores its preference items in the Windows registry for use by future sessions.
(See RegPath for default path). False = Propellent library does not save its settings; calling application is responsible
for maintaining preference items.
RegPath (PChar) : May be null (default) or a pointer to a string indicating the registry path in which to automatically store preference items.
This value is ignored if StorePrefs = False.
Set RegPath to null to use the default path. Set RegPath to the address of a path string to have the library
automatically store its settings in another path (such as your application's registry path); a new key will automatically be
appended to the path.
The default path is <rootkey>\SOFTWARE\ParallaxInc\Propeller\Propellent\<lib_reg_ver> where <rootkey> is
HKEY_CURRENT_USER, and <lib_reg_ver> is the library's registry version (ex: 1.0).
If not null, path must be a valid path within the HKEY_CURRENT_USER hive; do not include
"HKEY_CURRENT_USER\" in the path. If it doesn't already exist, the path plus the <lib_reg_key> will be created
automatically at the end of a session if a setting had been modified within that session.
GetLibraryVersion LongWord OPTIONAL. Call this to retrieve the Propellent Library's version in Binary Coded Decimal (BCD) #.# format. For example, a returned value of $10
means version 1.0.
GetResetSignal Byte OPTIONAL. Get Propeller chip reset signal preference. Returns 0, 1, or 2; 0 = toggle DTR (default), 1 = toggle RTS, 2 = toggle both DTR and RTS.
This setting is automatically saved and restored between sessions by the Propellent library if InitPropellent was called with StorePrefs = True.
SetResetSignal (Value) nothing OPTIONAL. Set Propeller chip reset signal preference. The default (DTR) will work for all true serial ports and for most USB-to-Serial devices,
however some USB-to-Serial devices only support RTS (not DTR). This option allows the user to set which pin (DTR, RTS, or both) is used to reset
the Propeller chip at the start of the identification or download process. This setting is automatically saved and restored between sessions by the
Propellent library if InitPropellent was called with StorePrefs = True.
Value (Byte) : 0 = toggle DTR (default), 1 = toggle RTS, 2 = toggle both DTR and RTS.
2
GetGUIMode Byte OPTIONAL. Get Propellent Graphical User Interface preference. Returns 0, 1, 2, or 3; 0 = all on (default), 1 = status messages only, 2 = dialogs
only, 3 = all off. This setting is automatically saved and restored between sessions by the Propellent library if InitPropellent was called with StorePrefs
= True.
SetGUIMode(Value) nothing OPTIONAL. Set Propellent Graphical User Interface preference. This option allows the user to specify how many GUI-based messages should be
displayed during normal operation; all messages, status (progress messages) only, dialogs (user prompts) only, or none. Note that this setting is
ignored for: 1) the ShowEditPorts function since that feature requires GUI interaction, and 2) any rare-occurrence user prompts such as a "File already
exists. Overwrite?" dialog. This setting is automatically saved and restored between sessions by the Propellent library if InitPropellent was called with
StorePrefs = True.
Value (Byte) : 0 = all on (default), 1 = show status (i.e.: progress messages) only, 2 = show dialogs (i.e.: user prompts) only, 3 = all off.
GetSerialSearchMethod LongWord OPTIONAL. Get serial search method preference. Returns 0 if set to auto-scan all available ports. Returns 1..n if set to scan only one port
(COM1..COMn). This setting is automatically saved and restored between sessions by the Propellent library if InitPropellent was called with
StorePrefs = True.
SetSerialSearchMethod (Value) nothing OPTIONAL. Set serial search method preference to either auto-scan all available ports (default) or scan a single port only. This option allows a user
to limit the scanning process to a specific serial port. This setting is automatically saved and restored between sessions by the Propellent library if
InitPropellent was called with StorePrefs = True.
Value (LongWord) : 0 = Auto (scan all available ports), 1..n = Scan only one port (COM1..COMn).
GetSerialSearchRules PChar OPTIONAL. Get serial search rules preference as a zero-terminated string. This function need only be called if the application is handing the
Propeller library's preferences manually (ie: InitPropellent was called with StorePrefs = False). The serial search rules may be changed by the user at
any time that the ShowEditPorts routine is called (allowing them to review the rules and modify them as desired). This setting is automatically saved
and restored between sessions by the Propellent library if InitPropellent was called with StorePrefs = True. NOTE: After calling this function, be
sure to copy the returned string to the caller's memory space before executing other Propellent functions which return a PChar.
SetSerialSearchRules (Value) nothing OPTIONAL. Call this to set the serial search rules preference if Propellent library is configured to not store its own preferences (ie: InitPropellent was
called with StorePrefs = False). If Propellent library is configured to store its own preferences (recommended), simply ignore the Set/Get-
SerialSearchRules routines. The format and content of the serial search rules preference is all handled by the Propellent library; do not edit the value,
but rather, call this procedure if you wish to manually set it to a value saved from a previous session. To get the current setting call the
GetSerialSearchRules function. This setting is automatically saved and restored between sessions by the Propellent library if InitPropellent was called
with StorePrefs = True.
Value (PChar) : A pointer to a zero-terminated string containing the serial search rules to use.
GetLibraryPath PChar OPTIONAL. Get the path to the Propeller Library files that will be used for source code compiling operations. This setting is automatically saved and
restored between sessions by the Propellent library if InitPropellent was called with StorePrefs = True. NOTE: After calling this function, be sure to
copy the returned string to the caller's memory space before executing other Propellent functions which return a PChar.
SetLibraryPath (Value) nothing REQUIRED IF USING COMPILE FEATURES. Call this to set the path to the Propeller Library files that will be used for source code compiling
operations. The library path must be set before calling CompileSource. If library path was set in a prior session, and InitPropellent was called with
StorePrefs = True, there is no need to call SetLibraryPath unless the path needs to be changed.
Value (PChar) : A pointer to a zero-terminated string containing the fully-qualified path to the Propeller library; example:
3
C:\Program Files\Parallax Inc\Propeller Tool
ShowEditPorts nothing OPTIONAL. Call this to display the Serial Port Search List dialog. This dialog describes the computer's serial ports and the order in which the library
will search them when scanning for a Propeller chip. The user is able to reorder the list of ports and can create simple or advanced rules indicating
which serial ports to include or exclude for scanning. The library manages the settings created by the user via this dialog and, if InitPropellent was
called with StorePrefs = True, automatically stores those settings in the Windows registry for persistance across sessions.
GetPorts (Scannable) PChar OPTIONAL. Call this to receive a pointer to a string containing a comma-delimited list of current serial ports on the computer. Call this at any time to
get an updated list since the available serial ports can change at any time as USB-to-Serial devices are connected/disconnected from the system.
NOTE: After calling this function, be sure to copy the returned string to the caller's memory space before executing other Propellent
functions which return a PChar.
Scannable (Boolean) : True = (recommended) string is filtered per preferences to include only desirable ports. False = string is unfiltered;
shows every serial port currently on the computer in the order given by the system.
CompileSource (Filename, ShowError) Pointer OPTIONAL. Call this to compile a Propeller application from source code. Returns 0 (null) if compile was successful; returns non-zero if an error
occurred. After a successful compile, call DownloadToPropeller with a null Filename parameter to download this compiled Propeller application to the
Propeller chip. NOTE: Propeller source files may be either ANSI-encoded (one byte per character) or Unicode-encoded (UTF-16; two bytes per
character).
RETURN VALUE : 0 (null) = compile was successful.
Non-zero = compile failed. Returned value is a pointer to the following structure:
SrcFile (PChar) : A zero-terminated string containing the fully qualified path and file name of the source
code that caused the error.
SrcStart (LongWord) : The first character of the source causing the error (0-based).
SrcCount (LongWord) : The number of characters causing the error.
Error (PChar) : A zero-terminated string containing the error text message.
Note that Propeller source files may be either ANSI-encoded (one byte per character) or Unicode-encoded (UTF-16;
two bytes per character). Also, before compiling, the source is automatically translated to use single carriage return
(CR) characters for line ends. Keep these details in mind when interpreting the SrcStart and SrcCount fields of the
returned error structure.
Filename (PChar) : This parameter must either be null or must be a pointer to a zero-terminated string containing the fully-qualified path to
a folder or to a file that is the top object (source code) to compile. The Propellent Library will automatically load and
compile any subobjects called for in the Filename object as needed.
Filename <> null: If Filename indicates a path to a folder, an Open dialog will appear (with that folder selected) to allow
the user to choose a source file to be compiled. NOTE: To specify a folder, Filename must end with a trailing path
delimiter '\'; for example: C:\Temp\ indicates the Temp folder on the C drive. If Filename indicates a valid path and file,
that file will be opened automatically (no dialog will appear) and will be compiled.
Filename = null: An open dialog will appear with the last-accessed folder selected to allow the user to choose a source
file to be compiled.
ShowError (Boolean) : True = on error, show an error dialog before returning to caller. False = on error, immediately return to caller.
4
CompileSourceDocs (Filename) PChar OPTIONAL. Call this to compile and retrieve documentation for source file given by Filename. Returns 0 (null) if failed; returns pointer to zero-
terminated document string if successful.
RETURN VALUE : 0 (null) = failed.
Non-zero = success. Returned value is a pointer to a z-string containing the document.
Filename (PChar) : This parameter must either be null or must be a pointer to a zero-terminated string containing the fully-qualified path to
a folder or to a file to retrieve the document for.
Filename <> null: If Filename indicates a path to a folder, an Open dialog will appear (with that folder selected) to allow
the user to choose a source file to retrieve the document for. NOTE: To specify a folder, Filename must end with a
trailing path delimiter '\'; for example: C:\Temp\ indicates the Temp folder on the C drive. If Filename indicates a valid
path and file, that file will be opened automatically (no dialog will appear).
Filename = null: An open dialog will appear with the last-accessed folder selected to allow the user to choose a source
file to retrieve documentation from.
GetSourceHierarchy PChar OPTIONAL. Call this after a successful call to CompileSource to retrieve the structure of the Propeller Application just compiled. The returned value
is a pointer to a contiguous array of elements representing the objects of the application from the first object (the top object) to the last object (the last
one referenced). Each element of the array returned consists of the following:
1 byte = Indicates the attributes (type, location, horizontal level) of the object in the hierarchy.
Bit 6 : 0 = source file, 1 = data file
Bits 5:4 : 00 = unused, 01 = work folder, 10 = library folder, 11 = dual (exists in both work and library
folders)
Bits 3:0 : Horizontal level of object (0 through 15), where 0 is the left-most level (the top object) and 1
through 15 are deeper levels (nestings) of child objects.
n bytes = full path and file name as a zero-terminated string
1 byte = zero-terminator for the above string
The end of the array is denoted by one last element that consists of just 2 bytes, both equal to zero.
SaveImage (AsBinary, Filename, ShowSaveAs) Boolean OPTIONAL. Call this after a successful call to CompileSource to save the compiled Propeller Application as a binary or EEPROM image.
AsBinary (Boolean) : True = save image as a .binary file. False = save image as a .eeprom file.
Filename (PChar) : A pointer to a zero-terminated string indicating the fully qualified path and filename for the image file to create. This
path and filename will appear in the Save As dialog, if ShowSaveAs is True. Path and filename may be the source's file
name, in which case the extension will be replaced with either .binary or .eeprom accordingly. If Filename ends with a
path delimiter, \, the image will be saved in that path with the original source filename and the appropriate extension. If
Filename ends with a non-path delimiter, the image will be saved using that path and filename; any given extension will
be replaced with .binary or .eeprom. Any folders in the path string that do not exist will be created automatically.
ShowSaveAs (Boolean) : True = show Save As dialog (containing Filename's path and file) for user to make adjustments as desired. False = do
not show Save As dialog; Filename must be a valid path and filename in this case.
GetPropellerVersion PChar OPTIONAL. Scan serial ports for a Propeller chip and display and return the port and version of the Propeller chip (if found) or an error message (if
5
not found). NOTE: After calling this function, be sure to copy the returned string to the caller's memory space before executing other
Propellent functions which return a PChar.
RETURN VALUE : Returned value is a pointer to a z-string containing one of the following:
if success: COM# : VERSION #
if failure: <error message>
DownloadToPropeller (Filename, DownloadCmd) nothing OPTIONAL. Scan serial ports for a Propeller chip and download a compiled Propeller Application to it. The "application" may be either an existing
image file or the last successfully compiled application.
Filename (PChar) : This parameter must either be null or must be a pointer to a zero-terminated string containing the fully-qualified path to
a folder or file.
Filename <> null: If Filename indicates a path to a folder, an Open dialog will appear (with that folder selected) to allow
the user to choose an image file to be downloaded. NOTE: To specify a folder, Filename must end with a trailing path
delimiter '\'; for example: C:\Temp\ indicates the Temp folder on the C drive. If Filename indicates a valid path and file,
that file will be opened automatically (no dialog will appear) and will be downloaded to the Propeller.
Filename = null: The image of the last successfully compiled application (via a call to CompileSource) will be
downloaded to the Propeller.
DownloadCmd (Byte) : 1 = write to RAM and run, 2 = write to EEPROM and stop, 3 = write to EEPROM and run. NOTE: command 2 is not
currently used by the Propeller Tool software.
FinalizePropellent nothing REQUIRED. This routine cleans up internal items, like memory, used by the library. This must be called just before unloading the Propellent Library
(if dynamically linked), or just before application termination (if statically linked).

Does the error occur on the GetPropellerVersion line or the line after it? Using that return value as a pointer is going to be a bad thing 'cause it's not a memory address to a string.
|
|
|
|
|
It's returning the numeric values on the left and the code converts it to the text value on the right hand side of the = sign.
112905168 = "COM6 : VERSION 1"
81416960 = "COM6 : VERSION 1"
How do those values equal the text? Are they memory addresses?
|
|
|
|
|
No, it's not a memory address. It tells you in the documentation exactly what that value is.
Quote: RETURN VALUE : Format is Bits 31 [to] 16 = port id, bits 15 [to] 0 = version
It's single 32-bit value that returns 2 values. The 32-bits is divided into two fields. You've to do a bit of math to get the values separated.
|
|
|
|
|
It fails on the var version = call propeller function line, but only on that one machine (so far). I read the documentation with the 2 words in the long, can you explain how they are converting the numeric value to text? I had it print out as binary and I still couldn't figure out how it was being converted?
|
|
|
|
|
Where are you getting the text from??
NM. I just found in it in the code you originally posted. If it is an address, which your code seems to indicate it is, then the library is just storing a string and passing the address to you.
But, if this really is the case, the documentation doesn't match what the library is doing and you should direct all further queries about this library to the people who wrote it.
