Windows 10: How to initialize a char array with double quotes not printable escape characters in C++

Hi,I am trying to initialize a character array with double quotes inside of the array. I am never going to print the array out, so I do not need the printable escape characcter \". I want to be able to read and compare the double quote inside of the array in the program. Is there a way to do this. The char array is very large so initializing the char array like this will not work:char hello[6] = { 'h', 'e', 'l', 'l', 'o', '/0' };Here is a small portion of the character array I am trying to initialize: char BankgothicFont[] = {"char id = "39" x =

double characters

Hi Jay, my name is Max and I'm an independent advisor.

I suggest you check if your keyboard is faulty. Connect the keyboard to a different USB port (if it is a USB keyboard) or a different computer.

If your keyboard is not a culprit, perform the steps below to disable Num Lock:

- Go to the Start menu to find On-Screen Keyboard, open the On-Screen Keyboard and check if characters are doubled when typing

- If the characters are doubled when typing, type a character to check if the Fn + Num Lock keys are highlighted while typing

- If yes, press Fn + Num Lock keys together on the keyboard to disable the active Num Lock and check if it helps.

If Num Lock key is active, it results in characters being typed twice.

I've done something similar before and what I did was create masks...

Step 1: Count the number of unique characters in the string. e.g. "blamo" has five unique characters.

Step 2: Create a "Mask" class or struct which has two definitions in it: 1) A String or char that represents this mask and 2) a String which holds the mask for that character.

Step 3: Create an array of class "mask", one for each unique character. Everything not that character has an underscore. e.g. "b____", "_l___", "__a__" etc.

Step 4: Make a MergeMask class which accepts two masks (or strings) and returns one string. This is a simple for loop where if value not equal to an underscore, copy to the output string. e.g. "b____" and "__a__" returns "b_a__"

Step 5: When they type a character, search your Mask array for a match. If no match, that's a strike against them. If it is a match you use the Step 4 method to make an output value.


I just checked how to get a char from a string:
Code: String mystring = "blamo"; mystring.charAt(4); // 'o' mystring.charAt(0); // 'b'[/quote] You could always stick to a byte array too. It's easy to convert from string, to bytes, and back to string.

Click to expand... wow you posted this just as i updated my posting. the charAt() is going to come in very handy. i figure im going to keep it simple. im going to use the readLine() to get user's secret word and then output it as a mask.

now i just need to figure out how to get a String into a JFrame.
