I can only imagine the following program will blow your mind:
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
int a[] = { 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7};
int i1 = a[2];
int i2 = 2[a];
printf("i1 = %d i2 = %d\n", i1, i2);
return 0;
}

I would also pass the size of the array to the function instead of hard-coding it at 10:
int Function(int* arrayargument, size_t size)
|

I was trying to keep the example as simple as possible. But since we`re here, what`s size_t? It`s the second time I see someone using it, is it an actual variable or just a custom?

size_t is just a type. Like int, long, and so on

Thanks Victor
you mean a built-in type in a c++ compiler? what makes it particular, with float the compiler will let you use the comma, char is a like a tiny int, what makes size_t special?

oh so it`s a class object from a library not a built in type.

The wininet library in Windows contains APIs for "cracking" and parsing network URIs into their component parts.
Are you aware of any facility in Windows that performs this function for command lines? (Something that I can call from an application, not the parsing that is done when my application is launched.)
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

Yes, and the executable name.
I imagine each argument separated into an array, and the executable name separated.

All of that is contained in the argv vector. For the executable name, look at the 0th item.
For WinMain(), you may have to refer to __argc and __argv instead.

Thank you David.
I didn't make it clear enough at first. I meant that I want my application to be able to parse the command line of a separate process.
You know how some registry keys have command lines in them? I was wondering if there is something built into Windows that can make it easy to parse them.

Ahh, that's a horse of a different color.
If you tried separating the tokens using a space as the delimiter, an issue that I see is that the path\executable name can itself contain a space. This is usually resolved by surrounding that token with quotes. So as you are parsing the whole string, you'd need to keep track of whether you were in a quote or not. If so, then spaces do not count.

Supposed I have a text file having the results of the 6/49 lottery in it:
49-05-13-42-18-45
43-24-36-16-39-22
32-48-05-18-34-29
13-14-07-41-48-39
47-05-17-13-37-49
06-23-34-21-46-37
06-42-13-40-11-37
39-44-40-21-32-20
17-26-38-43-01-02
How can I achieve the following output written to a text file with filename, "occurences.txt"?
49 - 2 times
49 paired with 13 - 2 times
I don't have an exact idea but maybe the following pseudocode can help:
void main ()
{
int number
cout<<"CHARACTER \t\ How many times it appeared"<<endl;
for (number='01'; number<='49'; number++)
{
cout<<number<<" - \t"<<countNumber(numbercount)<<" times"<<endl;
cout<<number<<" paired with \t"<<number<<" "<<ountNumber(numbercount)<<" times"<<endl;
}
system ("PAUSE");
return 0;
}
int countNumbers (int number)
{
ifstrem.stream; int numbercount;
int count=0;
stream.open ("countNumbers.txt"); stream.get (numbercount);
while (!stream.fail())
{
if (numbercount==number)
count++
stream.get(numbercount);
}
stream.close ();
return numbercount;
}
How can I go about this?

You cannot use character types that contain more than one character, like '49'. The first thing you need to do is read all the input, split the items into separate fields and convert the numbers to integers. You can then count the individual values, and the sets just by counting through all the saved numbers. You do not need to count from 1 to 49, since some of those values will not be present.

In additoon to what Richard said, you seem to be having a very vague understanding of C/C++ programming. Before trying your hand on a moderately difficult problem, you should really start with a tutorial on C++ programming. There are plenty of good sites on the web for this, e.g. at C++ Language - C++ Tutorials[^] You should specifically focus on the first chapter, which covers pretty much everything you need for the program you asked about.
GOTOs are a bit like wire coat hangers: they tend to breed in the darkness, such that where there once were few, eventually there are many, and the program's architecture collapses beneath them. (Fran Poretto)

I'm sure there are many ways to skin this cat, but how about a loop that reads each line of the file into a string type, then calls string::find() for things like "49-" and "-49"? If one of those is found, then do something similar with the 13. Would that work?

Good afternoon
I am new in c++. I am trying to write a code that uses an array of 2 exponent 32, A small example is the code below.
#include <iostream>
# include <stdio.h>
# include <fstream>
# include <string.h>
# include <iostream>
#include <math.h>
# include <stdlib.h>
#include <cstdio>
#include <cmath>
#include <cstring>
#include <limits>
#define two_power(n) (1u << (n))
using namespace std;
typedef unsigned long word32;
int main()
{
word32 delta, alfa;
static word32 array[4294967295][4294967295] ={0};
for (delta = 0; delta < 4294967296; delta++)
{
for (alfa = 0; alfa < 4294967296; alfa++)
{
array[delta][alfa] = alfa + delta;
}
}
cout << array[4294967295][4294967295];
return 0;
}
I there any method I can use to instead of using array because arrays have limitation in size. 2^32 = 4294967296. You can send me an email if you have an answer
