fixed the incorrectly set HTML tags
(please, whoever did paste this code in there: make sure you set the correct pre type!! The only symbols that for some reason require HTML tags are the angular brackets used for include statements and for template arguments; everything else should not use HTML tags, it might just garble the output)

To add to the 'gems' Chuck found, there appears to be a thorough lack of understanding of io streams. E. g. when you look at the function draw() :

C++

void draw(char main[][75], int score)
{
    system("cls");
    cout<<"Score : %d\n"<<score;        // 1
    for (int x = 0; x < 23; x ++)
    {
        for (int y = 0; y < 75; y ++)
        {
            cout << "%c"<< main[x][y];  // 2
        }
        cout<<"\n";                     // 3
    }
 
}

1. you seem to be mistaking output streams for printf(). String formatting for output streams is entirely different! There is no need to specify the type of a variable, as it is automatically derived! So just omit the '%d' in your output string, or else it will be printed, literally.
Also, the end of line character at the end will be printed with the rest of the string, before the score. I doubt that was your intention. (also see 3.)

2. same as one, and in addition you'll scramble your output with countless outputs of the string, '%c'. Just remove that string - main[x][y] is of type char and will be printed as such just fine.

3. while forcing a line break like this will work on most systems, some systems use different symbols for a line break. Therefore it is better style to instead use the constant std::endl (for end-line)

Here is the fixed version:

C++

void draw(char main[][75], int score)
{
    system("cls");
    cout<<"Score : "<<score << endl;
    for (int x = 0; x < 23; x ++)
    {
        for (int y = 0; y < 75; y ++)
        {
            cout << main[x][y];
        }
        cout<<endl;
    }
 
}

i have another question..how to make file processing on this code..hopefully anyone can help me..please!

Stefan_Lang 21-Nov-11 6:25am

What do you mean by file processing? Do you want to read from and write into files (and what)? You can use ifstream and ofstream for that, they work almost exactly like cin and cout, respectively. You can google for more info on these streams, and for example code.

Because I was bored, I tried to get this to compile (using the corrected post with all the <'s and >'s fixed, thanks Stefan!).

You need to go back to the place you got this and either contact the author or enter a discussion on that web site. This code is screwed up.

There are sequences like this:

C#

if (main[x][y] == '@')
{
    main[x][y] == '@';
}
else ......

Note the double '=' in the second line. And even if it were a single '=', the statement makes no sense. "if it is an at sign, set it to be an at sign". Maybe it's just filler because the else case is the more interesting one but it could also be just screwed up programming.

There are other gems like this in there.

C#

unsigned time;
srand(time(0));

where time is *both* a variable and a function that gets the time as a base for the seed (unix / linux I assume). The compiler doesn't like that either.

I'd say even if you get it to compile, there's a chance that it won't work.

That's it for me on this one.

In response to your question, the point of compiler error messages is to indicate pieces of code with incorrect syntax. To that end, the compiler will at the very least print the line number that caused the error, and an error code, along with a message explaining the code. Because sometimes a syntax error cannot be decided until the next line of code (e. g. when a ';' is missing), the indicated line can sometimes actually be one too low, so make sure you don't just look at that line, but also the line above.

Check your compiler output for the very first error or warning (i. e. the first line in your code). Then look at that line and what comes immediately before that. Try to understand the error message - sometimes that text may not appear meaningful to you, but often it can at give a useful hint at what is really wrong. Now try to discern, why the line you're looking at is syntacticaly wrong. If you can find it, fix it. You might want to do that with the other errors as well, but often one syntactical error will get the compiler confused, causing him to indicate a lot more errors that are in truth just a consequence of it's confused state, rather than actual errors. Therefore it may be prudent to just rerun the compiler after fixing the first error you find.

If you stumble over an error message that you cannot resolve by yourself, feel free to come back to us and ask specifically about that error. When you do, please post the source code at the indicated line, as well as a few lines before that. Also post the exact error message you got, so we get a hunch of what might be wrong. In most cases that should be enough for us to find the problem, or at the very least ask the right questions to get at it's core.

Noone is going to provide you with homework answers. You need to show that you have attempted the work yourself then post the bit of code that you are stuck on.

I'm sure if you googled you would be able to find plenty of source code just waiting for you to use...
