Another "tool" to keep in your box is the "%I64d" format specifier? Use it with sprintf().

Translation

I have the following line in my code:
sprintf(Tempcrap1, "%02d", Modi[i] - 64);
strcat(Tempcrap, Tempcrap1);
Where I am translating the alpha to numeric:
A-010,b-020,c-030 ....
for some reason I am loosing 0 after the numbers.
My result is:a-01,b-02,c-03... Where is the error?

did yo try
"%03d"

sardinka9-Jun-03 8:19

9-Jun-03 8:19

yes. It gives me 007.Instead of 070.

OK,

How about
"%.2d" - This will print a leading zero before any decimal

Below my proc. where I am translating value.
Case when Numeric,numeric,alpha: is fine.
Case when Alpha,numeric,numeric is incorrect.
Example:G73-07013 but my program transalted to 00773.
A-010,b-020,c-030 etc.

int convert_char_modifier_new(char *Modifier, char *NewModifier)
{/* Convert Modifier value from alpha to numeric */
char NewMod2[8];
char Tempcrap[8];
char Tempcrap1[8];
char Tempcrap2[8];
memset(NewMod2,0x00,sizeof(NewMod2));
memset(Tempcrap,0x00,sizeof(Tempcrap));
memset(Tempcrap1,0x00,sizeof(Tempcrap1));
unsigned int i;
for ( i = 0; i < strlen(Modifier); i++ )
{
if (isdigit(Modifier[i]))
{
sprintf(Tempcrap1, "%d", Modifier[i] - 48);
strcat(Tempcrap, Tempcrap1);
}
else
{
sprintf(Tempcrap1, "%02d", Modifier[i] - 64);
strcat(Tempcrap, Tempcrap1);

}
}

sprintf(NewMod2, "%03s", Tempcrap);
strcat(NewModifier, NewMod2);
return(0);
}

I'm not sure I understand your input/output. From what I gather you are wanting something like this for letters:

Input : Output
  A   :  010
  B   :  020
  C   :  030
  D   :  040
     ...
  Y   :  250
  Z   :  260

Is that right? If so, this should work:

sprintf(Tempcrap1, "%03d", (Modi[i] - 64) * 10);

If the input contains numbers, like:

Input : Output
  0   :  000
  1   :  010
  2   :  020
  3   :  030
     ...
  8   :  080
  9   :  090

sprintf(Tempcrap1, "%03d", (Modi[i] - 48) * 10);

Thank you for reply.
The problem is when
input : Output
A 10
B 20
C 30
...........
Y 25
Z 26
I am missing 0 if number 10,20,30,...90.

sardinka10-Jun-03 6:33

10-Jun-03 6:33

my problem is I need to have this value at the end:
A-10
b-20
c-30
...
y-25
x-26

At the end of what? I've yet to determine what you are considering input and what you are considering output. Do something simple like:

When my program sees input like "input data goes here", I want the output to be "output data goes here"

sardinka10-Jun-03 7:47

10-Jun-03 7:47

"input data goes here" : "output data goes here"
A : 010
B : 020
C : 030
D : 040
...............
Z : 026
Y : 025

David Crow10-Jun-03 8:24

This won't work. See the problem?

A 010     N 014 
B 020     O 015 
C 030     P 016 
D 040     Q 017
E 050     R 018 
F 060     S 019 
G 070     T 020 
H 080     U 021 
I 090     V 022 
J 010     W 023 
K 011     X 024 
L 012     Y 025 
M 013     Z 026

I am so sorry. I mistype: Cry | :((

it should look like this:
A 010 N 140
B 020 O 150
C 030 P 160
D 040 Q 170
E 050 R 180
F 060 S 190
G 070 T 200
H 080 U 210
I 090 V 220
J 100 W 230
K110 X 240
L 120 Y 250
M130 Z 260

My output should be:
A 10 N 14
B 20 O 15
C 30 P 16
D 40 Q 17
E 50 R 18
F 60 S 19
G70 T 20
H80 U 21
I 90 V 22
J10 W 23
K11 X 24
L 12 Y 25
M13 Z 26

You just can't make up your mind, can you? First you state that "it should look like this" and show one table, and then you follow that with "my output should be" and show a completely different table.

In the bottom table, do you not see the obvious error? A and J cannot both be 10.

sardinka11-Jun-03 4:09

Now I understand what you are saying. I am appreciated for your patient.
I am just learning C++, so I am not seeing full picture at first.
My project is to translate from alpha to numeric starting with the A=10 increase the next letter by 10 and then delete zero before numbers.
I got it to work but I am missing zero after the number if number=10…90.
What would you recommended to do with the J?
Confused | :confused:

This will do exactly that:

sprintf(Tempcrap1, "%d", (Modi[i] - 64) * 10);

I copyed your line of code into my program.
here my output(what I am getting).
Examples:
Entered Value:Should be : Cry | :((

I am getting
9AB : 90102 : 91020
Z73 : 26073 : 26073
9ZY : 92625 : 9260250

David Crow11-Jun-03 5:29

There are still discrepancies. For example, when Z73 is input, you want (and are getting) 26073 as output. Assuming the 26 is for the Z, why does the 7 get a leading 0 but the 3 does not?

Use:

sprintf(Tempcrap1, "%02d", Modi[i] - 64);

when converting letters to numbers, and:

sprintf(Tempcrap1, "%d", Modi[i] - 48);

otherwise. This will produce:

Input : Output
 9AB  : 90102
 Z73  : 260703
 9ZY  : 92625

sardinka11-Jun-03 6:06

I do not need to produce for 7 a leading 0.
In this case should be Z-260 and rest of the string.
