I have a strange result coming from some big math & have no clue as to why I'm getting a different answer from vb.net vs python.Here are the quick snippets & results:
VB.NET
Dim MSB As UInt32 = 3067297518
Dim LSB As UInt32 = 1439785590

well i am having a couple of issues with this particular homework problem and this is my first programming class so there is probably quite a few mistakes well the homework problem is to take three double values entered by a user and display the largest and smallest using math.max and math.min and display the smallest and largest so i thought i could use a listbox and take the values that went to the listbox and assign variables to each so i can try to use each variable in the math.max and min but im not making it to far and i actually might be way off
[Code]...
[code]I suspect the reason the results are different is because vb.net returns a double when you call ^ and I should be "shifting" it but can't seem to work out the syntax (or find it)

View 6 RepliesI am trying to do math (-, +, *, etc) based on what a user selects from a combo box. The combo has the operators (-, +, *, /) in its items list. when the user selects one of them, I want to use that operator with the two numbers the user also provides from two text boxes.
dim intNumOne as integer
dim intNumTwo as integer
dim intAnswer as integer

'I don't think I want to concatenate here. but this is what I would like to happen (use the operator based on the users selection from the combo and the two numbers from the text boxes.

I tried to make theOperator a 'char' type variable but that didn't work either.
Is there any way to parse a string in vb.net (like, built in methods), that can do math like Eval can? For example, 3+(7/3.5) as a string would return 2.
I am not asking for you to code this for me, I just want to know if there is a built in way to do this, if there is not I will code it myself.
I can wager that it would not be able to parse stuff like Sin(90) on its own, and I understand that would need to be replaced by Math.Sin(90).

For a certain camera, an object that is 18 cm from the lens is in focus when the lens is 9 cm from the film. What is the focal length of the lens?
View 1 RepliesIs there some interface I can implement to allow basic comparisons and math to happen as it would an integer?
For example, let's say I have the following class:
Public Class Something
Public SomeBigNumber as UInt64
End Class
I would like to do something like this:
Dim SomethingA, SomethingB, SomethingC as New Something
....
If (SomethingA-SomethingB) > SomethingC Then
'Do stuff
End If
I was hoping to be able to implement some interface (if that is even the right term for it) that would return the UInt64 contained in the class for comparison and math, if possible.

View 4 RepliesSimilar in concept to Math.Abs() - I'm looking for a function that when given a positive integer will return the same integer. If given a negative, will return zero.
So:
f(3) = 3
f(0) = 0
f(-3) = 0
Yes, this is simple enough to write on my own but I'm wondering if the .NET Math class already has this built in or if the same can be achieved by cleverly chaining a few Math.* calls?
I am trying to figure out a calculation I can perform in C# to determine the rows per column. Let's say I know I am going to have 3 columns and my record count is 46. I know that I can mod the results to get a remainder, but I would like something more efficient than what I have tried. So I know I will have 16 rows per column with a remainder of 14 for the last column, but what is the best way to loop through the resutls and keep counts.
View 1 RepliesI have 36 numbers in sets of 5. (eg. 1-2-3-4-5, 2-3-4-5-6 etc..) I need to find all the possible combinations of these numbers which total the same sum. For instance the lowest sum would be: 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 = 15. The highest possible sum is: 32 + 33 + 34 + 35 + 36 = 170. Now every five number combination within these 36 numbers will sum up between 15 and 170. How would I go about this in vb.net to produce all the possible combinations which would total say 92.

I am writing a program that rolls those crazy many-sided dice for use in fantasy games, and I have come to a point in my work where I am completely stumped. I am hoping that some of the more seasoned VB programmers on these forums might be able to point me in the right direction.
If this explanation gets a bit lengthy, please forgive me; I tend to be long winded. The feature I am trying to implement is that every roll result can have one or more "damage types" associated with it, such as "Fire" or "Acid". If I rolled a dice with "Fire" as the type, and the resulting dice roll was a 4, this would result in an output string of "4[Fire]". If there are more than one type, they are separated by commas like "4[Fire,Acid]".
The problem is when performing math while keeping track of these types. For addition and subtraction, there is little problem, "4[Fire]" added to "4[Acid]" is simple "8(4[Fire], 4[Acid])", while "8[Cold]" minus "4[Fire]" will leave "4[Cold]". Still with me? The problem comes into play when we multiply or divide rolls with types together. If we multiply "4[Fire]" and "4[Acid]", we get "16[Fire,Acid]" which is different than either "Fire" or "Acid" alone. Similarly, if we divide that "16[Fire,Acid]" by "4[Fire]", we are left with "4[Acid]", but if we divide by "4[Cold]" instead we will have "4[Fire,Acid]"
So how do I go about keeping track of this? Some of the dice strings my parser can handle might have dozens of damage types that might need to be figured into the total results. The result should display the total for the entire calculation, with results per damage type tracked separately. Currently I am using code that parses the string data above so that every type name is stored in an array with a integer variable associated with it for the total of that damage type. So, for the string "4[Fire,Ice]" I am storing the info in a variable that holds the 4 and an array that holds "Fire" and "Ice".
I'm wanting to search a RTB for all X coordinate values and convert them to SI mm units.
I have two issues: 1. My code is stopping after the first instance of match.success, I'm guessing i'm using nextmatch incorrectly? I have also tried matchcollections with no success.
2. I fear once we get it progressing to the next X value, any multiple X values with the same dimension will be replaced with my replace command, causing the new value to be converted again.
