Coding standards were developed because frequently someone else will have to maintain your code, and having the code work will not necessarily make it understandable and maintainable. Using "break"...

If you use the while statement as follows:

bool finished = false;

while ((!finished) && (!_backgroundWorker.CancellationPending))
{
//When the exit condition is met-
finished =...

You just need 6 variables:
int con1 = rng.Next(0, 17);
int vo1 = rng.Next(0, 5);
int con2 = rng.Next(0, 17);
int vo2 = rng.Next(0,...

The code is doing what you told it to do in this statement:
Console.WriteLine(conlist[con] + volist[vo] + conlist[con] + volist[vo] + conlist[con] + volist[vo]);
since you are only using one index...

Thanks, BPE.
x = Console.ReadLine();
This line also needs to be within the do-while loop, otherwise x never gets updated.

int con = rng.Next(0, 21);

The conlist is only 17 elements, but con could be as large as 21, so eventually it may crash by being out of bounds.

I made a couple minor changes to your structure:


string eval = "";
bool finished = false;

while (!finished)
{

Believe it or not, I have seen code that used multiple entry into functions. Back in the days when code space and execution time was very critical, some functions were written with several different...

"Yes, if you really want to avoid multiple returns then this is the way to do it. But it isn't as easy to read as the solution given by BioPhysEngr (with my correction). "

If you follow the coding...

Here is another solution:


string stripZero(string OriginalNumStr)
{
string ModNumStr = OriginalNumStr;
int DotIndex = OriginalNumStr.IndexOf('.');

You might want to try reading in using a BinaryReader and writing out using BinaryWriter.
BinaryReader r = new BinaryReader(fs);

binWriter = new...

You didn't mention what the problem is, but
if (grade > 50)
{
GPA = 0.0;
}
so any grade above 50 will yield a GPA of 0.0. I don't think you want that.

No, you are not in the minority. If you make it a popularity contest, of course you will win.
People like to take the easy way out and don't care about who has to maintain their code later.
If you...

BPE, I have programmed using coding standards that strictly forbade the use of goto, continue and multiple returns from a function. I didn't write the standards, but I agreed with them and followed...

BPE, I share your aversion to goto, but I have a similar aversion to 'continue'. I have never used it, since it is easily avoided.
Assuming your code is correct (I haven't tested it), I have...

You have guess defined as an int, but Console.ReadLine() returns a string. That is the mismatch. That's why I gave you this line:
string guess_str = Console.ReadLine();
Then you can convert it to...

BioPhysEngr, I agree that using "goto" is a bad practice. But why do modern languages, including C#, allow its usage? It is an unnecessary statement so it shouldn't be included in the language.

The guess string must be converted to an int before the comparison takes place.
Here are a few hints:


guess_str = Console.ReadLine();
guess_str =...

Vielleicht wenn Sie die Frage auf Englisch stellen würden, würde jemand verstehen und Ihnen helfen.

I think you mean a wildcard "*.txt" rather than ".txt" in the Directory.GetFiles() function call.

The operation Double.Parse(txtFat.Text); is failing because the text is invalid.
It would be good if you had used the try{ } catch {} around that operation so you could have a messagebox in the...

//declare variables
double dblFat;
double dblCarbs;
double dblFatCalories;
double dblCarbCalories;
double dblTotalCalories;

//assign values
dblFat = Double.Parse(txtFat.Text);
dblCarbs =...

Thanks for the further suggestions, foamy & Peter. I now simply set the Tag member to represent the Antenna number for that RadioButton when the RadioButton is created in the Design. This greatly...
