Thread: My progress.. thnx to Cprogramming forumites

Thought i should share my progress here after all mourning and groaning.. Having starting windows programming three weeks back... This program only does user interface, next part is to do calculations. You welcome to comment or give feedback..

I have 5 files

Also note string literals are const: http://cpwiki.sourceforge.net/Common...kes_and_errors

Thanx Elysia, something interesting i've learned today from the link you provided: "Using fflush() for stdin is wrong"... I always used this especially when using character input functions... Do you perhaps know how else to clear the input!?

Unless you have some particular motive for doing it this way, it's commonly recommended that all functions are EITHER upper case or lower case in the beginning. I see no paritcular pattern as to why some are upper case and others lower case start.

There are many ways to use the initial letter of a function name, e.g.:
- Upper case are for void functions, lower case those that return a value (or vice versa).
- Upper case for global functions (those that you intend to use from another .c file), lower case for local (static) functions.
- Always first letter upper (or lower) case, using the opposite to signify other things (commonly upper case initial letter is a typename).

There's hundreds of other variants, but you should have a rule that is consistent. Mixing and matching as you feel will sooner or later lead to mistakes and confusion.
