Re: problem understanding a functionality of constructor.

The first uses the expression list of the constructor to initialise a member by passing to the member's constructor. See Constructors and member initializer lists - cppreference.com[^] for the various possible methods about member initialisation besides assigning in the compound statement (the final block enclosed by braces).

The access to private and protected members is granted by the friend declaration - cppreference.com[^].

You should get hold of a good C++ book. Probably the best would be the one written by Bjarne Stroustrup[^]

Welcome to C++. Big Grin | :-D

I mean:

constructors are the very basics of an OOP language (you must be sure to grasp them before even attempting to code).
accessing an otherwise unaccessible member is the very purpose of the friend declaration.

Problem statement: You are given Q queries. Each query consists of a single number N. You can perform any of the 2 operations on in each move:

1: If we take 2 integers a and b where N=aXb(a!=1,b!=1) then we can change N=max(a,b).

2: Decrease the value of N by 1. Determine the minimum number of moves required to reduce the value of N to 0

Input Format

The first line contains the integer Q.

The next Q lines each contain an integer,N .

Output Format

Output Q lines. Each line containing the minimum number of moves required to reduce the value of N to 0.

Sample Input

2

3

4

Sample Output

3

3

Explanation

For test case 1, We only have one option that gives the minimum number of moves. Follow 3->2 -> 1->0 .

Hence, 3 moves.

For the case 2, we can either go 4->3 ->2 ->1 ->0 or4 -> 2-> 1->0 . The 2nd option is more optimal. Hence, 3 moves.

My algo:

if a number is N then

I do looping until sqrt(N) to find if it is a prime or not.
if it is a prime number then N=N-1
if it not a prime number,one of the largest factor(say a) is <=sqrt(N) then other will be b=N/a now b>a then put N=b;
increment count(pass by value).
then next iteration for N ,until it is greater than 1.
return count.

algorithms works fine with small value but predicts less optimal solution for large values.why?

as in the above code i have converted class Polar to class Rectangle, but i also want to have a conversion of class Rectangle to class Polar.

Did you test it?
Does it work?

I ask because I see neither the assignment operator

Rectangle& Rectangle::operator =(const Polar& polar)

nor the ctor to create Rectangle instance from the Polar one... Confused | :confused:

Forget about matrix calculations. You need to go and study operator overloading and get that working on a basic class first. Once you understand how to do it correctly so you get no errors, then you can move on to the matrix functions.

I don't know; you have to do your own testing. But I find one of the easiest way to debug issues is to create a small test program that just focused on the area that appears not to work. So a small program with a very basic class, that just tests the operator+ overload, would be much easier to understand.

Linux C++ implementation of ioctl SOLVED

Broken 5V supply to LCD!

I should have know better since the LCD did not react to power-up - reset and show 5/7 characters - but the power LED was on on the i2c module itself !

Learned few Linux tools on how to troubleshoot i2c, so no big loss.

Now I can proceed with implementing ioctl.

I would like to discuss implementation of Linux ioctl function.
There are few reasons I am posting my question here and not on Linux forum. However, if you feel it is inappropriate you have two options - ignore my request ( preferred to sermon ) or flag it to be removed.
I am basically aware WHAT ioctl does, and have been thru few documents ( Linux Device drivers, CodeProject driver tutorials etc.)
I am trying to implement ioctl "driver" to output (Raspberry Pi) to I2C LCD.
The problems I cannot get straight is how to configure I2C speed (using C++, not Linux commands ) and implement ACK read from slave I2C device.

I understand I2C protocol, but all of the sample codes I have read so far are "limited" to open ioctl file and "write " to I2C slave address.

I like to see or make my own code to implement I2C "start /stop " and read ACK/ NACK from slave.

Any to the point help will as always be appreciated.

Thanks

You have two options:

Use the existing I2C support on the Raspberry Pi with the I2C GPIO pins
Implement your own I2C support on general use GPIO pins

The I2C speed is defined by the master by generating the clock. A device might use "clock stretching" to slow down (Clock, Stretching, Arbitration - I2C Bus[^]).

So implementations are not time critical. They can use a predefined (max.) clock and have not to care about being slowed down by other tasks on the system.

I have implemented I2C in assembler on micro controllers. Implementing it in C is not a problem but be aware that it might be a frustrating tasks because it can't be simply debugged. I highly recommend to use a logic analyser or at least a storage oscilloscope to check the signals on the bus.

Quote:

With device drivers use i2c_transfer(). Have a look at the source of any Linux driver for a I2C device like rtc-pcf8563.c
[^].

When using ioctl() on the I2C device just use read():

C++

int fd = open("/dev/i2c-1", O_RDWR);
// Use I2C_SLAVE_FORCE if the device is in use (e.g. when a driver is installed)
ioctl(fd, I2C_SLAVE, addr);
read(fd, buffer, length);

Or use ioctl(I2C_RDWR) or ioctl(I2C_SMBUS) for reading which both does not require the I2C_SLAVE[_FORCE]. In any case check first if the used ioctl() call is supported.

The speed is configured outside the program or on the library you are using on the Pi

Edit /boot/config.txt if it doesn't exist create it
add the line or edit the line with your baudrate

dtoverlay=i2c-speed,i2c1_baudrate=400000

i2c1 may also be disabled by default I can't remember if so you need

dtparam=i2c_vc=on

In the userland repository there is also a direct header and library
bcm2835: C library for Broadcom BCM 2835 as used in Raspberry Pi[^]
and a forum
bcm2835 : Google Groups[^]
Standard use

#include <bcm2835.h>  

int main(int argc, char **argv)  
{  
    char buf[1];

    if (!bcm2835_init())return 1;  
    bcm2835_i2c_begin();                //Start I2C operations.
    bcm2835_i2c_setSlaveAddress(0x20);  //I2C address
    bcm2835_i2c_set_baudrate(10000);    //1M baudrate

    while(1)  
    {   
        buf[0] = 0xEF;    //LED ON
        bcm2835_i2c_write(buf,1);
        bcm2835_delay(500);
        buf[0] = 0xFF;     //LED OFF
        bcm2835_i2c_write(buf,1);
        bcm2835_delay(500); 
    }    
    bcm2835_i2c_end();  
    bcm2835_close();  
    return 0;  
}

Thanks for replies.
I am currently "on the road" and will reply when I get home.

In short
I did try "just GPIO" , it worked to the point, but it got too convoluted.
Hence I am after using ioctl.
I'll take a look at the bcm2835.h, hopefully I can use it for bcm2837 chip used in RPi 3B.
I think my main concern is still to be able to "see" the code following / running the I2C spec - mainly changing hardware pins directions and reading START /STOP and ACK/NACK back. Of course I am verifying the actual LCD and sometime even using scope.

Thanks for all your comments, appreciate that.

VS2017: Cannot debug Dll's

I converted VS2008 solution (sln) to VS2017. Visual Studio is up-to-date - version 15.6.4.
My solution contains tens of C++ projects - executables, dll's and lib's. Now I have a weird issue - dll's cannot be debugged in Debug configuration.
In Release configuration it works - breakpoints can be used.
But in Debug configuration all the breakpoints are disabled and there is a hint - "The breakpoint will not currently be hit. No symbols have been loaded for this document."
When I try to load symbols (pdb) manually I'm getting a message "A matching symbol file was not found in this folder."
In DLL project settings (vcxproj file) GenerateDebugInformation is true.
I'm a bit confused why generated pdb file cannot be used by Visual Studio.
