Unfortunately it can in general not guarantee that it will find the global optimum. You can find a good guess very quickly, or you can slow the annealing to the pace of continental drifts and have a higher chance to find the correct answer, but you can never be 100% sure unless you test all options, i. e. brute force.

You are right, of course.
If the problem needs an exact solution, Simulated Annealing is not the right algorithm.

Simpler than Dijkstra? Seriously? Dijkstra is the obvious choice. You may be able to find a faster algorithm, but not a simpler one, unless you use brute force.
P.S.: I wasn't familiar with the Floyd-Warshall algorithm[^] (assuming that is what you were referring to). It seems like it is simply a specialiced version of Dijkstra applied to a weighted graph. Sounds like it's a perfect fit for this problem.

Write and test the following function that attempts to remove all occurrences of an item from an array:
intremove(int a[], int& n, int x)
The function searches the first n elements of the array a for the item x. If an x is found, it is removed, all the elements above that position are shifted down, the
array size n is decremented. This is repeated until all occurrences of x in the array are removed and then the total number of elements removed is returned. If x is not
.Write your own Car class. The class data should include:
I. make (using an array of char),
II. year,
III. petrol,
IV. tankSize,
V. mpg (miles per gallon),
VI. owner (using an array of char).
The functions should include:
I. display,
II. fillPetrol: pass number of gallons as a parameter and return gallons actually input (before full),
III. drive: pass distance as a parameter and return distance actually travelled (stopping if empty),
IV. changeOwner (passing new name as a parameter).
V. You should also have two constructors (one with and one without parameters) and any other functions needed, such as full() and empty(). (Should these 2 functions be public or private?)
VI. Put code in the constructors to show when each is called (cout<< "Constructor X called";).
VII. Write a program to create and use a Car object, making sure it calls all the public functions.

We are happy to help people who have problems with code that they have written. However, we are not here to do their homework. Homework assignments are provided in order to test your knowledge, so it would not help you to be assessed on someone else's work. Give it a try, it may not be as difficult as you think.

It's all done. I even went so far as to grade it for you. Definitely a solid B. How would you like it delivered?

In Windows File Explorer I'm able to navigate to the folder "C:\Windows\System32\WDI".
However, when I try to open a handle to that directory, it inexplicably says that the path is not found!
The code I'm using is below. Does anyone know what I could be doing wrong? (I'm running Visual Studio as Admin, so that when I debug the program it should also be running as Admin.)
int main()
{
std::wstring Directory = L"C:\\Windows\\System32\\WDI\\*.*";
WIN32_FIND_DATA FindData;
HANDLE FINDHANDLE = FindFirstFile(Directory.c_str(), &FindData);
if (FINDHANDLE != INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE)
{
std::cout << "IT WORKED!\r\n";
}
else
{
std::cout << "DID NOT WORK!\r\n";
DWORD Error = GetLastError();
std::cout << "ERROR: " << Error << "\r\n";
}
}
It prints "Error: 3" which is "The system cannot find the path specified." Note that it does not say "Access is denied".
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

Nope you program doesn't get admin rights just because visual studio has them.

Hi everyone, I have such a task: "Given an integer square matrix. Determine the minimum among the sums of diagonal elements parallel to the main diagonal of the matrix." I have a code but I have problems compiling a flowchart for it, can you help me with compiling a flowchart or give tips? thanks in advance
thats my code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h>
#define N_MIN -3
#define N_MAX 5
int main(int argc, char *argv[]){
int s,i,j,k,l,s1,t2,t1;
int a[5][5];
srand(time(NULL));
for(i=0;i<5;i++){
for(j=0;j<5;j++){
a[i][j]=rand()%(N_MAX-N_MIN+1)+N_MIN;
}
}
for(i=0;i<5;i++){
for(j=0;j<5;j++){
printf("%3d ",a[i][j]);
}
printf("\n");
}
k=0;
s=0;
l=0;
for (i=0; i<5; i++){
for (j=0; j<5; j++){
if (a[i][j]>=0){
if(a[i][j]%2==0)
l+=a[i][j];
k++;
}
}
if (k==5){
l=l;
}
else {
l=0;
}
s=s+l;
k=0;
}
s1=a[0][5-1];
for(i=1; i<5; i++){
t1=t2=0;
for(j=0; j<5-i; j++){
t1+=a[i+j][j];
t2+=a[j][i+j];
}
if(t1<s1) s1=t1;
if(t2<s1) s1=t2;
}
printf("vivod %d %d\n", s,s1);
return 0;

Can you write a line by line description of what this code does? Is this a question about the C language or or the typical symbols in flowcharts or something else?

Start by simply describing in english what each code section does, the flowchart will fall out from that.
It will only be a problem if you didn't write the code yourself

Wrong place to post this: this is for reporting and discussing problems with this site, not with your software.
Try here: Ask a Question[^] or here: C / C++ / MFC Discussion Boards[^]
But ... remember that we can't see your screen, access your HDD, or read your mind - we only get exactly what you type to work with. So give us as much relevant info as you can - like what you found when you looked at those locations, perhaps...

All the PDB file stuff isn't errors it's just the debugger telling you it can't debug inside the windows dll. You need the non community version for that aka the paid version 
The actual error is you don't have the comctl32.dll loaded. I could give you the long explanation of where you add it in the program options but lets give you the new hack way
Simply place this near the top of your main file
#pragma comment( lib, "comctl32.lib" )

I think I almost got it right. I have a question about the two file reads
if( cf.Read( &BFH, sizeof( BITMAPFILEHEADER ) )
!= sizeof( BITMAPFILEHEADER ) ||
BFH.bfType != 'MB' ||
cf.Read( pDib, dwDibSize ) != dwDibSize )
first it will read the first 14 bytes which is the header and store it in BFH, at the second read it will read a chunk of data but from the looks of it that chunk will include the (first) header again along with whatever else is included
modified 15-Mar-20 4:13am.

|

No, the second read will start from the byte following the position where the previous read stopped. That is normal file IO operations. It will only re-read the header if you rewind the file after the first operation.

BITMAPFILEHEADER BFH;
BITMAPINFOHEADER BIH;
RGBQUAD Palette;
RGBQUAD * Pixels = new RGBQUAD[10];
cf.Read( &BFH, sizeof( BITMAPFILEHEADER ));
cf.Read( &BIH, sizeof( BITMAPINFOHEADER ));
for(int i =0; i<10; i++)
{
cf.Read(&Pixels[i],sizeof(RGBQUAD));
}
StringCchPrintfA(message,1024,"b0 is %d", Pixels[0].rgbBlue);
MessageBox(NULL, message, "Textures.exe", MB_OK);

MessageBox(NULL, message, "Textures.exe", MB_OK);
CFile fileWrite;
Pixels[0].rgbBlue = 100;
Pixels[0].rgbGreen = 100;
Pixels[0].rgbRed = 50;

CFile::modeCreate | CFile::modeWrite ) )
return( FALSE );

fileWrite.Write( &BIH, sizeof( BITMAPINFOHEADER ) );

The code looks valid enough, are you sure the file is getting created correctly?
|
|
|
|

you`re right, if I try to create the file under a new name it works.

I have just tried a similar exercise and the changes are correctly made to the output file.

I will run into other C related issues, you`re not getting rid of me.
