The reason that piece of code is a bug is the '=' operator is actually the assignment operator. The '==' operator is used to test for equality. It's a very common error that the compiler doesn't catch, unless you have the warning level set to the highest.

That's a bad bug, watch out for those.

This is what you wanted:

You didn't assign a value to x before you started using it.

I've uploaded about 800 megs so far, I've been sharing about 100kB/sec for 2 hours.

I'll let it run until I go to bed and start it up again tomorrow.

Don't try to learn how to program and make a game at the same time unless it is a simple text game. You can give this a go: Wrath Lands It's all text and just about as simple as you can get with an RPG. The tutorials were done on the spot without any planning aside from the design document. Once you...

A few tips that I've picked up: 1) Find your limit and keep pushing it. Always try to do a little more than you are able. Try not to over do it or you'll burn yourself out. On the other hand, if you don't work hard enough you won't improve. 2) When you're stressed take some time to relax. If everyth...

SDL requires that you do this: Next time you should search for the answer first.

What you want to do is build a library. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/927063/building-c-source-code-as-a-library-where-to-start If you've never built a library before you might try to build an easy one like zlib or something.

Does that mean we can sell SDL games as long as SDL is linked as a DLL? Short answer: yes. To comply with this license, you must give prominent notice that you use the Simple DirectMedia Layer library, and that it is included under the terms of the LGPL license. You must provide a copy of the LGPL ...

Every once in a while although drivers don't suddenly go bad. :| Only drivers that are corrupted by viruses or hardware failure go bad. Also, the noise hasn't come back so it might have just been the interference from the power adapter. Would this power adapter happen to be a charger for something>...

I would try to take the guesswork out of it by using another operating system, you just might have a hardware problem. Give Knoppix or Ubuntu a try. You can run them without having to install them on your system. EDIT: Another thing you could try if you have a sound card is moving the card to a diff...

http://www.libsdl.org/license-lgpl.php The Simple DirectMedia Layer library is currently available under the GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL) version 2.1 or newer. SDL's use of the LGPL is twofold: * Allow end users to use custom versions of the library, to support bug fixes and other enhanc...

Found this with google: #include <iostream> int main() { char text[] = "Hello. This is a typewriter effect done in C."; int len = strlen(text); for (int i = 0; i <= len; i++) { printf("%c", text[i]); _sleep(150); } return 0; } You should be able to figure it out with that.
