In this tutorial, we will be discussing a program to understand integer literal in C/C++ (Prefixes and suffixes).Integer literals are literals for integer values directly represented in the source code. Further, they are of two types −Prefixes − Prefixes denotes the base of the value. For example, 0x10 indicates hexadecimal value with 0x.Suffixes − Suffixes denotes the type of the value. For example, 8465484156155LL denotes a long long integer.Example Live Demo#include using namespace std; int main(){    //prefixes    cout

In this tutorial, we will be discussing a program to understand INT_MAX and INT_MIN in C/C++.INT_MIN and INT_MAX are macros that are defined to set the minimum and maximum value for a variable/element.Example Live Demo#include int main(){    printf("%d", INT_MAX);    printf("%d", INT_MIN);    return 0; }Output2147483647 -2147483648ApplicationCalculating MIN value in an arrayExample Live Demo#include //calculating minimum element in an array int compute_min(int arr[], int n){    int MIN = INT_MAX;    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)    MIN = std::min(MIN, arr[i]);    std::cout

Suppose we have the string s, we have to find the size of the longest substring containing each vowel an even number of times. That is, 'a', 'e', 'i', 'o', and 'u' must appear an even number of times. So if the string is like “helloworld”, then the output will be 8.To solve this, we will follow these steps −ret := 0, define two maps m and cnt, set m[“00000”] := -1store vowels into vowels arrayfor i in range 0 to size of sx := s[i], and ok := falseincrease cnt[x] by 1, set temp := empty stringfor k in ...

In this tutorial, we will be discussing a program to create a C/C++ code formatting tool with the help of clang tools.SETUPsudo apt install python sudo apt install clang-format-3.5Then we will create a python file in location where the current user has read and write permissions.Exampleimport os cpp_extensions = (".cxx", ".cpp", ".c", ".hxx", ".hh", ".cc", ".hpp") for root, dirs, files in os.walk(os.getcwd()):    for file in files:       if file.endswith(cpp_extensions):          os.system("clang-format-3.5 -i -style=file " + root + "/" + file)Create a file formatting file in the top directory of the current user.Outputclang-format-3.5 -style=google -dump-config ...

Creating a folder or directory on your computer is an important task in programming. A directory is like a container that helps store and organize files. In C and C++, you often need to create directories to store data, logs, or configuration files. Creating directories makes file management easier. For example, if your program needs to store logs, it should check if a "logs" folder exists. If not, it can create the folder automatically, so you don't have to do it manually. In this article, we'll show you how to create a directory in C or C++. Creating Directories ... Read More

In this tutorial, we will be discussing a program to understand core dump (segmentation fault) in C/C++.It happens due to reasons like when code tries to write on read only memory or tries to access corrupt memory location.ExampleModifying a string literalint main(){    char *str;    str = "GfG";    *(str+1) = 'n';    return 0; }Accessing out of array index bounds#include using namespace std; int main(){    int arr[2];    arr[3] = 10;    return 0; }Accessing an address which is freed#include #include int main(void){    int* p = malloc(8);    *p = 100;    free(p);    *p = 110;    return 0; }OutputAbnormal termination of program

In this tutorial, we will be discussing a program to understand how to convert strings into numbers in C/C++.C/C++ provides two ways to convert strings into numbers.Example Live DemoUsing sscanf()#include int main(){    const char *str = "12345";    int x;    sscanf(str, "%d", &x);    printf("The value of x : %d", x);    return 0; }OutputThe value of x : 12345Using stoi() Live Demo#include #include using namespace std; int main(){    string str1 = "45";    string str2 = "3.14159";    string str3 = "31337 geek";    int myint1 = stoi(str1);    int myint2 = stoi(str2);    int myint3 = stoi(str3);    cout

In this tutorial, we will be discussing a program to understand how to convert a string into integer array in C/C++.For this we will create a new array. Traverse through the given string, if the character is a comma “, ”, we move on to the next character else add it to the new array.Example Live Demo#include using namespace std; //converting string to integer array void convert_array(string str){    int str_length = str.length();    int arr[str_length] = { 0 };    int j = 0, i, sum = 0;    //traversing the string    for (i = 0; str[i] != ...

In this tutorial, we will be discussing a program to understand how to add “graphics.h” C/C++ library to gcc compiler in Linux.To do this we are required to compile and install the libgraph package.This includes install build-essential and some external packages>>sudo apt-get install build-essential >>sudo apt-get install libsdl-image1.2 libsdl-image1.2-dev guile-2.0 guile-2.0-dev libsdl1.2debian libart-2.0-dev libaudiofile-dev libesd0-dev libdirectfb-dev libdirectfb-extra libfreetype6-dev libxext-dev x11proto-xext-dev libfreetype6 libaa1 libaa1-dev libslang2-dev libasound2 libasound2-devThen setting the path in the extracted files>>sudo make install >>sudo cp /usr/local/lib/libgraph.* /usr/libExample#include #include #include int main(){    int gd = DETECT, gm;    initgraph(&gd, &gm, NULL);    circle(40, 40, 30);    delay(40000); ...

In this tutorial, we will be discussing a program to understand how arrays are passed to functions.In the case of C/C++, the arrays are passed to a function in the form of a pointer which provides the address to the very first element of the array.Example Live Demo#include //passing array as a pointer void fun(int arr[]){    unsigned int n = sizeof(arr)/sizeof(arr[0]);    printf("Array size inside fun() is %d", n); } int main(){    int arr[] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8};    unsigned int n = sizeof(arr)/sizeof(arr[0]);    printf("Array size inside main() is %d", n);   ...
