Just telling us that you have a connectivity problem without showing the errors you are getting and other related information is not useful. Want help? Provide more data. We are not mind readers.

I admire someone who is planning ahead, but the point of school (you are in your 1st year) is to explore the options, and not lock yourself into a path that may not be what you want later in your studies. IE, take this opportunity to explore! When you find …

Want a LInux laptop? Go to www.zareason.com - no Windows from them!

I'm drinking a nice glass of Jameson's Irish Whiskey (triple distilled). Going to bed soon... :-)

Most web traffic now is encrypted with SSL. It's nice that Wireshark can determine the decryption certificate to use from the stream, which is why it can turn it into plain text (unmask it). That is also how your browser knows what to do to decode it into a real …

Nobody has mentioned ClamWIN/ClamAV - open source (free) AV for both Windows and Linux. I have found it generally effective on both systems, and the price is right! For Windows, MS Security Essentials is a reasonable choice, but it only works for MS systems.

Write the solution in pseudo code first - the exact steps and processes you need to follow to get the correct answer, and then write the code to reflect that. DO NOT start with code! People keep asking me why I spend so much time on analysis and design (and …

Assuming the host it is trying to connect to is external to the local network, or is in another subnet, then either the internet proxy or the router (depending upon situation) will need to be reconfigured. You need to have your hosting provider deal with this.

What Red Goose said. This bit of code: int ones_digit = num%10; int tens_digit = num/10; Needs to be AFTER you get "num" from cin. You may have other problems, but that was as far as I looked. Also, you may want to verify that it is a number and …

"I need help with this school project" doesn't help a lot. No explanation. No showing of work done at this point. Sorry, but my mind reading ability just fizzled out...

There are more choices for Linux. Besides Apache, there is Nginx, and other web servers. Many of those also have Windows versions, but not so much because of the "locked down" nature of Windows.

Usually VPS in the computing world stands for Virtual Private Server. So, what is the intent of your comment "leave them"?

IOCTL is short for IO Control. It is a means to send messages and commands to the system kernel. If you want to add messages to a particular IOCTL then you will have to modify the kernel or kernel module sources and rebuild and reinstall it.

Basically, you cannot sort an unsorted list without modifying the list, unless you make a sorted copy of it without modifying the original. So, I think your original question is in question...

$200 USD / hour - that's what I charge to write embedded software programs... Also, I don't do your home (or other) work for you unless you make some effort to do it yourself first. Then, I may help you figure out where you have run off of the tracks. …

Have you done a complete shutdown and then recharged the battery before you tried to boot it up?

This is a simple program, and converting it to another programming language should not be a major effort. I think it is time you RTFM regarding Python programming documentation... Python programming is a skill in demand these days, so it will do you well to learn it.

You shouldn't need it for ffmpeg. Try to transcode your videos into some more compressed stream, such as mpeg4, mkv, etc. It has a zillion options, and learning to use it effectively will take some time, but basic stuff is quite simple. BTW, the avi format is just a wrapper …

You can use the open source ffmpeg tool to convert any video stream to just about any other. In this case, if she wants it on her iPhone, then convert it to a .mov format, or mp4.

I also use ffmpeg for this stuff. I find that this works well for most all video formats: ffmpeg -i "input file" -target ntsc-dvd -q 0 -async 20 "output file name". This will create an mpg file. The -async 20 will sync the audio every 20 ms which works well …

If your system is running Linux, then you can use the Alsa and pulseaudio sound libraries. Windows has its own stuff to use. These may be C libraries, but you can use them in C++. That said, if you want to do low-level sound programming to a sound card and …

The only means to assure that your old data is not recoverable on discarded gear is to remove the hard drives, mount them as an external drive on another computer, and wipe the disc with an appropriate shredder software. Alternatively, if the system still boots and has a bootable usb/cd/dvd …

You can also do this with the bash shell and ssh from Cygwin on Windows. I used to use those tools extensively for management of Linux servers as well as software development for Linux on Windows.

The keyboard controller on the motherboard is continuously scanning the keyboard for keys that have been pressed. When a key is pressed, basically the controller detects that the key at position x (row) y (column) has been pressed, and that is decoded into the appropriate key by software. Since the …

Also, FWIW, the dual interface in OracleSQL is basically the internal structural tables where stuff like date/time settings (and other stuff) are stored. If you are talking about MS SQLServer, that is basically Sybase massively altered by Microsoft. You would need to read their documentation to determine how to do …

Learn arrays in C. Unless you are talking about std::array, they are the same. This stuff is covered in just about every C and C++ text book known to humankind.

Actually, you can run OSX in a VirtualBox VM on Linux. Not sure about Windows. How well that would work I'm not sure as I haven't tried it, but VBox does have an Apple OSX startup option. You can at least try it.

The update may have altered device settings. Check there to see if the mouse is detected, but not enabled.

Initialize even and odd to 0 when you declare them. Don't reset them inside of your loop.

I love it when the clueless try to reinvent the wheel, using straight elements (no curves). My wife, a particle physicist gets equally p.o'd when I try to explain the fundamentals of mesons, even though I have at least 1/2 a clue... So good luck, and I'll send your regards …

You will need to contact candidate host sites directly to see if they support it, or if you can install it. Many today will use either virtual machines for their hosted customers, or containers such as Docker in order to give you a safe environment that will not be interfered …

Besides the fact that Win98 is waaaaay out of date and insecure, why don't you upgrade to a current (or recent) Linux system? The CUPS printer files for Linux/Unix can probably handle your printer without problem. Also, viruses will pretty much be a thing of the past.

What Hiroshe said. Asking us to analyize over 1000 lines of code is not particularly useful... and you don't ask any relevant questions or describe the errors you are encountering.

Good for you in finding the cause of the problem. Note that in line 3 of your post, it indicates that it would use a default entry point, which is why it ran.

C# is not C, and your question cannot be answered without more information.

Some nit-picking here. Your functions set global variables instead of returning values. Change that so that the results of a functional computation is returned without setting a global variable. Your current practice will come back and bite you in the future unless you change it. IE, instead of `void Reverse_Number …

@Momerath - I guess you weren't interested in MicroFocus COBOL? :-) It is (as far as I recollect - I haven't done anything with COBOL in a donkey's age) pretty compatible with most mainframe COLBOL compilers. But yes, the other posters (Ancient Dragon and Momerath) are absolutely correct.

Please show the entire image class definition.

What JorgeM said. Protocols are the rules by which we communicate. They can be implemented in hardware/firmware, or in software. I have implemented the complete TCP/IP protocol stack in software from the protocol definitions published by the US DOD in the DDN (Defense Department Networking) Protocol Handbooks. I have also …

The hardest? Probably the code I wrote that enables you to extend properties and behavior of C++ classes at runtime via specifications and rules, not coding. I got a patent for that. The software is used extensively in the semiconductor, flat-panel display, and disc drive manufacturing domains. It allows a …

The dd application is running in memory, so it is altering it as you dump it. You might want to look into how the open source ClamWin virus scanner handles this issue when scanning memory for viruses.

I've been having a discussion on the Linux Forums recently with a fellow about his migration to Linux for gaming. Between Steam and Wine he has managed to get most of his favorite games working great. I think he is using a recent version of Ubuntu.

Symantec's certs were serious hacked recently which is why this happened.

The scanner manufacturer may have some open source code to use to write your own scanning apps. They may be in something like C++ using an API like Qt, but you should be able to adapt that to VB. It is the interfaces to the scanner that are critical here, …

Have you tried using the wildcard '*' as in: `dir_src = "C:\\Python25\\ATest1\\*"` ? I'm not a python expert, but I would think this should work. Worth a try in any case.

Ok. We will be happy to help you, ONCE you have made an effort to solve the problem. Do some reading on the subject of C++ and (especially) object-oriented design. Consider: you have classes such as card, deck (which would be a collection of cards), etc. So, model it accordingly. …

If you are running Windows, there are none. Myself, I will not run Windows natively on my personal systems. When I need to run a Windows application, I do it in a virtual machine running Windows under Linux. My work system is Windows, but it is the responsibility of my …

A USB cable that is more than 10 feet long (3+ meters) is going to be dicey at best. The fact that it worked with your old WiFi gear was luck. 5 meters (15 feet) is already getting to the limits of the tech for unaugmented (non-active) cables.
