thanks, that's the kind of answer i was looking for.

it seems like it might be a bit cumbersome.

so how common is it? (i haven't examined too much C code, being a noob) do you use it?

wow, that's a lot. maybe i should give it a try.

seriously, is it worth trying?

retard,

this is an excellent explaination on pointers: http://www.eskimo.com/~scs/cclass/notes/sx10.html

how many people actually use C for OO programming? it's described here: http://www.planetpdf.com/codecuts/pdfs/ooc.pdf

ah, i see. that's supposed to be an example of how to embed R into your C program, so i figured it was self-contained.

thanks for the help!

$ make all

your first question (and CornedBee's question) were both answered in my initial post. i was being polite by not bringing this to...

$ autoconf
autoconf-2.59: no input file

the autoconf man page says it expects a configure.ac or configure.in file, neither of which exist.

here's what happens:


$ make -f Makefile.in

so i copied ../../Makeconf.in...

i'm trying to compile a program that has no configure script, only a makefile. i've tried several things:

thanks for the link.

thanks for the input. i think i'll go with mysql's api since it looks like a lot less hassle and i don't think it's a big deal to have mysql as a dependency.

also, does anyone have experience...

i'm about to start on a program that uses a database. which do you think is better to use, the mysql c api: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/index.html
or odbc:

sake,

yes, i would rather learn C than python with C syntax. so what do you do when you have the need for those types of objects? do you know of any books or online docs that discuss high-level...

thanks for the replies. that was just the type of info i was looking for andyhunter.

i'm used to working with python data types, such as lists, tuples, dictionaries, pickles, and so on. will these concepts transfer over to C? if so, please point me to a tutorial or some...

how do you find unanswered posts on this forum?

spaces. advanced text editor. it's the same.

what do you think, is this a bug?

seems like a bug in the forum software. this works:

float overtime_week_day=14, overtime_weekend=5, total_over_time;
but this doesn't:

float...

i copied from the board, pasted it in emacs, corrected the spacing errors, ... copied it from emacs, pasted it to the board, and the spacing errors are back after it is submitted. try it.

i now see that the code i posted also has spaces in those two variables. i wonder if something's wrong with the forum.

this might help:

#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
float overtime_week_day=14,overtime_weekend=5,total_overtime;
float overtime_weekendpay,overtime_week_daypay,standard_pay, normal_pay;
float...

for one, your variables "total_over time" and "standard_ pay" have spaces in them. what is the correct value for "tax deduction"?
