Help! Can't read file with the char's. " / " and "." !
Hi fellows! I got this file : example. 13-06-06 12:30:20,526 -3,568 13-06-06 12:30:20,529 -13,528 13-06-06 12:30:20,556 -30,568 .. .. .. My program writes this file, and in my program i also got a ReadFile.VI, to read this file and plot the data and i had no problem with that. Then I tried in another computer (with american english characters) . then when my program writes a file there I got the file look like this: 13/06/06 12:30:20.526 -3.568 13/06/06 12:30:20.529 -13.528 13/06/06 12:30:20.556 -30.568 .. .. You can see that the caharacters "- " and ", " are replaced with "/ " and ". " Then when want to read this file with in my ReadFile.VI, the scan string comes with an error. So I managed this problem with replacing the american char's with the eurpaen char's. But I'm shure that Labview can handle that in another way. see Attached vi. how i hanlded the problem. an easyer way there shure is!! Help any suggestions. !!??? Regards Zamzam The other Attached file shows the format string to date and time , when written to file.!

Suddenly Can't Use "ifstream"s and "ofstream"s
I had a working piece of code that successfully read from files with the "ifstream" type and wrote to files with the "ofstream" type. This code is made up of a number of different files.

Dijkstra's "Enumeration" = "Metrics" his "Abstraction" = "Quality"
"Enumerative reasoning is only an adequate mental tool under the severe boundary condition that we only use it very moderately. We should appreciate abstraction as our main mental technique to reduce the demands made upon enumerative reasoning." ~ EW Dijkstra This is critically decisive because Dijkstra is saying that in most *software engineering" contexts, most of the time, abstraction is key relative to "metrics", the numerical, the quantitative. It is a TOWWWEEERRRING, grand slam "home run". It is of Doug William's 3-4 perfectly pitched Super Bowl touchdowns. It is growth in insight after Dijkstra one of THE very best ran into major impasses attempting to drive development with metrics. His insight is that ABSTRACTION should "lead" the way. While there is the dialectic: metrics<=>abstraction The predominant factor to engage and lead software engineering by is "abstraction". So notation wise better: metrics<=>abstraction* And to denote analyzing or summarizing the dialectic applied in whatever context, from point 'a' to 'b': a,b{ metrics<=>abstraction* Discrete points: a,b; l,q{ metrics<=>abstraction* Have at your own meaningful fun!

"out" and "in out"
Hi i found the following explaination: In Ada, "in" parameters are similar to C++ const parameters. They are effectively read-only within the scope of the called subprogram. Ada "in out" parameters have a reliable initial value (that passed in from the calling subprogram) and may be modified within the scope of the called procedure. Ada "out" parameters have no reliable initial value, but are expected to be assigned a value within the called procedure. What does "have no reliable initial value" mean when considering the "out" parameter? By chance I created a small program as follows: =========== s : string := "CAT"; procedure modify ( s1 : out string ) is begin s1(2) := 'U'; end modify; ... put ( modify(s) ); =========== now I get as a result "CUT", and i dont understand why i get this result. Doesnt the "out" specify that its initial value isnt passed in via the parameter? But it seems to be passed in the above. In fact the "out" is acting like an "in out". I am a little confused. Could someone shed some light on this?

Math::PI and ActiveRecord::Base are the same type of lookup... it is = just that Base is a module and PI is a float....

Problems with two toc's
Hi I am trying to add two tables of contents to my document using the memoir class. I would like tio have a short and a long toc like in the memoir manual. I however get an error I can't write on file 'twoTocs.toc' where twoTocs.tex is my test document. It seems that the file is locked by som eother process.

"Select" & "Order By" OK- ''WHERE'' Does'nt Work !
Before i post actual code, as i need a speedyish reply. Can i first ask if anyone knows off the top of their head, if there is a likely obvious cause to the following problem. For the moment i've reduced my form request to a simple text string entry, instead of my desired optional parameters. As i have been stuck with a single unfathomable glitch for over a year. Basically, if i enter queries such as ; "select * from table" "select * from table order by artist", it works perfectly. However if i introduce the 'where' option, as in "select * from table where artist like whatever". It comes back with "could not execute query". This happens even if i append "order by" to it.

Of course, with "a=3cm", there's not many values that will work for a.

If your friends won't tell you, who will ;-) Write the contraction "it's" only when you want its meaning to be "it is," otherwise it's wrong ;-) OTOH, how does one punctuate the posessive of a word per se? E.g., the first letter of "it" is "i", but can one write that as "it"'s first letter is "i," or it...
Dijkstra's "Enumeration" = "Metrics" his "Abstraction" = "Quality"
"Enumerative reasoning is only an adequate mental tool under the severe boundary condition that we only use it very moderately. We should appreciate abstraction as our main mental technique to reduce the demands made upon enumerative reasoning." ~ EW Dijkstra This is critically decisive because Dijkstra is saying that in most *software engineering" contexts, most of the time, abstraction is key relative to "metrics", the numerical, the quantitative. It is a TOWWWEEERRRING, grand slam "home run". It is of Doug William's 3-4 perfectly pitched Super Bowl touchdowns. It is growth in insight after Dijkstra one of THE very best ran into major impasses attempting to drive development with metrics. His insight is that ABSTRACTION should "lead" the way. While there is the dialectic: metrics<=>abstraction The predominant factor to engage and lead software engineering by is "abstraction". So notation wise better: metrics<=>abstraction* And to denote analyzing or summarizing the dialectic applied in whatever context, from point 'a' to 'b': a,b{ metrics<=>abstraction* Discrete points: a,b; l,q{ metrics<=>abstraction* Have at your own meaningful fun!

"out" and "in out"
Hi i found the following explaination: In Ada, "in" parameters are similar to C++ const parameters. They are effectively read-only within the scope of the called subprogram. Ada "in out" parameters have a reliable initial value (that passed in from the calling subprogram) and may be modified within the scope of the called procedure. Ada "out" parameters have no reliable initial value, but are expected to be assigned a value within the called procedure. What does "have no reliable initial value" mean when considering the "out" parameter? By chance I created a small program as follows: =========== s : string := "CAT"; procedure modify ( s1 : out string ) is begin s1(2) := 'U'; end modify; ... put ( modify(s) ); =========== now I get as a result "CUT", and i dont understand why i get this result. Doesnt the "out" specify that its initial value isnt passed in via the parameter? But it seems to be passed in the above. In fact the "out" is acting like an "in out". I am a little confused. Could someone shed some light on this?

Math::PI and ActiveRecord::Base are the same type of lookup... it is = just that Base is a module and PI is a float....
Why can't "define" double as "set!"?
hi Is there any good reason that "define" shouldn't double as "set!"? dillogimp@gmail.com wrote: > Is there any good reason that "define" shouldn't double as "set!"? Yes: DEFINE defines variables, SET! changes the values of (defined) variables: (set! x 1) => wrong!

Problems with two toc's
Hi I am trying to add two tables of contents to my document using the memoir class. I would like tio have a short and a long toc like in the memoir manual. I however get an error I can't write on file 'twoTocs.toc' where twoTocs.tex is my test document. It seems that the file is locked by som eother process. I have used the example by Marting J=F8rgensen: http://groups.google.com/group/comp.text.tex/browse_thread/thread/c0bcc931b= c12c962/bb474c2704f83e4e?lnk=3Dgst&q=3Dmemmanadd.pdf#bb474c2704f83e4e Taken from memmanadd.pdf I have seen elsewhere that other people using windows have the same problem that the .toc-file is locked by the first \tableofcontents command, so when the second command is called, the file is locked by pdflatex.

"Select" & "Order By" OK- ''WHERE'' Does'nt Work !
Before i post actual code, as i need a speedyish reply. Can i first ask if anyone knows off the top of their head, if there is a likely obvious cause to the following problem. For the moment i've reduced my form request to a simple text string entry, instead of my desired optional parameters. As i have been stuck with a single unfathomable glitch for over a year. Basically, if i enter queries such as ; "select * from table" "select * from table order by artist", it works perfectly. However if i introduce the 'where' option, as in "select * from table where artist like whatever". It comes back with "could not execute query". This happens even if i append "order by" to it. I'll post all the various codes if anyone can please help.

Of course, with "a=3cm", there's not many values that will work for a. Consider a = 3cm; a := 4cm; If the second assignment were just an equation, mpost would complain that 3cm does not equal 4cm, because you're saying you want a to be 3cm and 4cm at the same time.
