Advice for newbies in C++.


Read Schaum's outline on C++. Cheap, quick, easy,

lots of worked examples. Just don't let it be your

last book, because it is by no means even close

to complete. It will help you up the learning curve.

There is general formula to find the highest and lowest no.

For Signed no

-2 ^ (n-1) to 2 ^ (n-1) -1

And for signed no

0 to 2 ^ (n) - 1

Where ^ is power.

According to this 16 bit int can store

-32768 to 32767 signed no
and
0 to 65535 unsigned no

Hope this helps.

There is a define in <limits.h> for max. integer - INT_MAX. (ANSI-compliant) That will be 2147483647 if integer is 32-bits wide and 32767 for 16 bits. You can e-mail me for more help
