Carpet Calculator - Rolls Required To Cover Room?

Sep 1, 2011

I'm trying to make a carpet calculator that will do the following:
1) How many metres of carpet are needed to cover a room.
2) How many rolls of carpet that will be.
3) How much full-width carpet will be left on the last roll.

The carpet is supplied in rolls that are 5 meters wide and 30 metres long. Any excess width is discarded. This means that rooms that are wider than 5 meters need several strips of carpet. The smallest space that will be carpeted is 1m x1m, the biggest is 20m x 20m. I only need whole meter lengths, so example if only 1.6meters of carpet were used to cover a room it would be rounded to 2 meters.

Here's the code that's giving me incorrect calculations. The number of rolls required to carpet the room seems to be the biggest miscalculation.
Private Sub btnCalculate_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnCalculate.Click
Dim width, length As Single 'Defines variables.
If IsValidInput(txtWidth.Text) Then
width = txtWidth.Text
[Code] .....

When A Player Types North In Room "Crash Site" They Get The Description Of Traveling To The Next Room "In Trail"?

Jul 27, 2010

I've run into another road block while programming my game. The problem is that when a player types North in room "Crash Site" They get the description of traveling to the next room "In Trail" as well as the description of traveling to the next room after that, "Deeper In Trail" before having to type north again. I've looked over the code several times, but can't find the problem....the conditions seem to be fine, but I'm guessing that's where the problem is..

Code:
ElseIf LCase$(txtInput.Text) = "go north" And Room = "Crash Site" Then
Room = "In Trail"

Feb 2, 2010

I cant not get my faxdoc to send a cover page? I can not figure this out. Please help!!!

I have tried.FaxDocumentObj.CoverPageType = FAX_COVERPAGE_TYPE_ENUM.fcptSERVER

FaxDocumentObj.CoverPage ="C:Documents and SettingsabbyDesktopFax Coversgeneric.cov"
and this FaxDocumentObj.CoverPageType = FAX_COVERPAGE_TYPE_ENUM.fcptLocal
FaxDocumentObj.CoverPage =
"C:Documents and SettingsabbyDesktopFax Coversgeneric.cov"

Is there a way of setting the local path if I use Type Local? Can a cover page be something other than .cov? I was hoping to use .rtf. The only thing that will allow me to send is None and I don't get a fax cover page..

Fitting A Form To Cover The Entire Screen

Sep 11, 2011

I have a program and wish to generalise its appearance at startup on different machines. This worked OK until I moved it onto a Windows 7 unit with a 22" screen. The front page covers less than 2/3 of the screen. I know I've asked the system for 'working area' but could not find a reference to the entire screen which other applications seem able to use. How can I catch up with them? The code is from VB in VS2005. Is this my limitation?

Algo / Code To Cover A Rectangular Area Using Circles?

Jun 13, 2012

This is a problem like the puzzle - "find minimum number of coins to completely cover a piece of paper".

The difference is:

in my case RADIUS of the coins is variable (but all coins should have same radius).

Real scenario:

1. I need to draw circular shapes on a rectangular image.

2. Number of circles (N) is CONSTANT/ User input

3. Size of image (S) is CONSTANT/ User input

4. The program should find the MINIMUM RADIUS (R) that is needed to draw N number of circles on an image of size S, so that, the image is completely hidden behind the circles.

This is NOT a puzzle/assignment that I'm trying to solve.This is part of a larger project that I'm working on.

I don't need any drawing code. I just need the code/algo to find the radius.

Room Availability Calendar Blocking

May 26, 2011

I am developing a hotel software product, and one of the features required is to be able to display the room numbers in the hotel, and then the status of them for each day of the month.

I am trying to create something similar to a DataGridView control where at the top the column names are the dates of the month, and to the left is the room numbers as rows. Please see the below screenshot of the function I wish to have. However I do not know what control or function they use to create this grid below (it is from an existing product). I need to not just be able to join multiple cells together when it is the same person in the room for multiple days, but also allow drag and drop ability.

Currently I have a DataGridView control and am able to simulate the below screenshot, however with a datagridview control I am unable to join cells across multiple columns nor allow drag and drop ability between rows.

Dim Today As String
Today = DateString

I have changed my application. Now it has two separate datagridviews each using the code above (seperate bindingSource and GridView). One each in it's own splitcontainerpanel one above the other. My intent was to allow the user to view both at once or grab the divider and slide the panels up or down to only reveal the grid they want to view.Trouble is, when one grid it completely collapsed I get an error "No room is available to display rows".

Chat Room - Sending Messages To Specific Clients?

Nov 19, 2009

How would I create a multi-tcp chat room. Im having trouble handling them. I know you can store the connections as arrays or store then in hash tables. Is there a better way to data to a specific connected client. My way was to just broadcast the message to all the connected with the clients name (EX: Client1||MessageHere) || is the split. The client reads the message and sees if client name matches if it does then it will display it other then that it will not. I found out that my server was sending out useless data with this method. So is there a better way to handle/Send messages to a specific client?
