I’m working on making a URL shortener for my site, and my current plan (I’m open to suggestions) is to use a node ID to generate the shortened URL. So, in theory, node 26 might be short.com/z, node 1 might be short.com/a, node 52 might be short.com/Z, and node 104 might be short.com/ZZ. When a … Read more
There are no superscript letters in ASCII. ASCII contains only the basic Latin (English) letters A–Z, a–z, digits, and a small collection of other characters. There are only 128 code positions in ASCII. In Unicode, there are more characters (about 1,000,000 code positions, about which a little over 100,000 have currently been assigned). They include … Read more
Vertical tab was used to speed up printer vertical movement. Some printers used special tab belts with various tab spots. This helped align content on forms. VT to header space, fill in header, VT to body area, fill in lines, VT to form footer. Generally it was coded in the program as a character constant. … Read more
So I’m trying to write this in a short way: Basically if the user does not input a letter between A and C, a while loop will run until A,B,C,a,b,c is inputted. It should be in the form of while(letter<‘a’ && letter > ‘c’) but it didn’t work apparently because if I inputted F, is … Read more
2018 Update: As of February 2018, using compressions like gzip has become quite popular (around 73% of all websites use it, including large sites like Google, YouTube, Yahoo, Wikipedia, Reddit, Stack Overflow and Stack Exchange Network sites).If you do a simple decode like in the original answer with a gzipped response, you’ll get an error … Read more
EOF is not a character (in most modern operating systems). It is simply a condition that applies to a file stream when the end of the stream is reached. The confusion arises because a user may signal EOF for console input by typing a special character (e.g Control-D in Unix, Linux, et al), but this character is not … Read more
A slightly simpler solution:
In python, the following will let us write to stdout: However, I want to be flexible about which stream we print to. I want to pass the stream as an argument into a function, as you would when calling fprintf in any of C derived languages. In the snippet of source code above, stdout is … Read more
Here is the example: Expand snippet Or if you have longer strings: Expand snippet String.charCodeAt(x) method will return ASCII character code at a given position.
cin >> plainText reads from the input up to, but excluding, the first whitespace character. You probably want std::getline(cin, plainText) instead. References: std::getline istream& operator>> (istream& is, string& str)
