I like to annotate my on-line documentation.

There is a "annotation" feature in the Windows 95 *.hlp help files, but not in the Windows 98 *.chm help files (which contain *.htm files).

So far...

Ah! Thanks Salem.

That was less complicated than I was worried that it might be!

Thanks klausi. Looks like one of the better references on the web (I finally managed to find a few).


Thanks Salem. I'm thinking about buying Borland Turbo C/C++ Suite. It includes a C tutorial,...

I'd suggest starting by creating a program or spreadsheet that calculates the equally tempered fundamental freq of all 88 pitches (most pianos have 88 keys and 88 pitches). Hint: to avoid...

I could write a complete, easier to understand explanation of how to tune a piano, including calculating the beat-rates of intervals, klausi, but it would take several pages of writing. What I wrote...

I've wrote a program in Atari BASIC to do the above, many years ago. Later I discovered it could probably be more easily done with a spread sheet, and maybe a few simple macros, but I never completed...

Briefly:

You use a spread sheet or program to create a table of fundamental frequencies, and tables of frequency-differences between the coincident partials (coincident harmonics) of musical...

Actually, what I was thinking of getting, and paying for, to make learning easier, was this suite http://shop.borland.com/Product/0%2C1057%2C3-15-CQ100110%2C00.html

remember that turbo C is a 16-bit compiler, so in their help-files they use "word" for a 16-bit integer

I'm still looking for a simple list of the arithmetic operators, that can be used in C, and the syntax of operators and operands. I having trouble deducing these from the math.h file.

Thanks SamGwilliam -- I was able to get my computer to exponentiate, using the information you provided in your example. I did, however, as I had before, have to say something like...

Hmmm. I'm gonna have to study that for a little while, unregistred-person.

I've been looking for hours all over the net for just a simple list of the arithmetic operators, that can be used in C, and the syntax of operators and operands, but I can't find one. Can anybody...
