    There will be no emails this time around, just a simple fail.

    I wanna be demonstrated at!

    College gets scarier by the month, what with words like "iron fist" and "fail" being thrown around, at least we get a warning, but the mystery's a killer.

    Mathew - Got the lab out, working with the book and the program makes a big difference. I used tabs initially but they wanted it right alligned so it was setw ftw. They still said pad it out with spaces though, seemed like cheating in my books but I couldn't figure a better way so they win! Thanks for all the help anyway.

    Btw, using boards in the mac lab didn't go too well. It would load like a tenth of the page and just stop. Ghey.

    Boards works fine for me in the Mac lab.. better than in the PC lab as a matter of fact, the PC I was using yesterday didn't have JavaScript..

    If you use setw and then \t it should pad it out. I'll post the code I used in a sec.

    Edit: Err, actually I won't since I don't have the code I used..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 639 ✭✭✭devinejay


    That'd probably be the neatest way alright. I was all on for setting a different setw for each line, but yer man said it'd be easier otherwise. Don't really see how but whatever!

    I had all my output in one cout line so I think I only used setw once for all the lines, then just used endl. I can't really remember..

    No. It is a bit crude to post on here.

    Congrats on getting away with an unofficial warning shane ;)

    Nice one.. Best way to learn really... In theory you wont forget it now!! :P
    Never had a problem with boards in the mac lab tho.. Always seems to work..

    Baza, if you saved that file to the desktop of the mac, or to your file storage, you can get at it there..

    JavaScript != Java


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,699 ✭✭✭Brian


    I'm pretty sure it's JavaScript that's used for the drop down menus on boards..

    Maybe so, but a computer does not have 'javascript'
    A computer may have Java installed to allow running of Java apps... difference


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,163 ✭✭✭✭Boston


    javaScript does not need a java virtual machine.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,699 ✭✭✭Brian


    Now nobody knows what's going on, so I declare victory. It's the Engineering thread after all.
