    Looks class alright, I've played a few similar physics sims like that before but that looks to be the most comprehensive I've seen. Alas I won't download it for fear I'll never get any sleep!

    mathew - I have that lab tomorrow, I've been studying the book and I was hoping the tab function would do the job. I've yet to get editing and compiling at home so I'd rather not spend the whole lab trying out each function to see what happens. Would I just set (n) to whichever value suits each particular line e.g.

    (Variable Name) (Variable Value)
    I want each variablevalue to start directly below the one above, but the variable names are different lenghts. Exploit the fact that they are constant lenghts no matter what the input?

    Well I cant go doing the lab for you... take what I've said above, and see if it helps....

    I did test it... I couldnt remember how to write it so I had to guess and test it..
    Your setw has to come before your setfill()

    setw came earlier in the statement definitely. Grr, if only I had Mac OS X on this..

    Hoping to do that at the weekend =D

    Considering you have to get a hacked copy somewhere so it will work... and doesnt really work that well...

    I have a copy of Tiger that I put on my PC, was quite slow... and drivers were very difficult to come by.. so I got rid of it..

    1. Thats no fun

    2. With WLAN, the max file size = space left on receiving HDD. Not limited by lego brick memory sticks


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,699 ✭✭✭Brian


    Reading thread in sideways orientation while lying down in bed = win.
    Having to sit up to type post = not so fun.

    What help are you talkin about you clown! You were about as useful as a chocolate teapot!
    Ye TCD heads really are a waste of space! What a useless shower of stupid geeks!

    bit of bogey,

    If you are just going to insult everyone in the forum they have given you assistance with some of your college work you are going to get banned pretty fast. This is a warning.
