C/C++ C++ Vector Resize: Counting Down to the Test

    C++ Vector
AI Thread Summary
To create a countdown vector with elements from newSize down to 1, the vector must first be resized using countDown.resize(newSize). After resizing, the vector needs to be populated with integers in descending order. The code snippet provided indicates that the user attempted to resize the vector but did not populate it correctly, leading to confusion. The key takeaway is that resizing alone is insufficient; the vector must also be filled with the appropriate values for the desired output of "3 2 1 Go!".

Resize vector countDown to have newSize elements. Populate the vector with integers newSize down to 1. Ex: If newSize = 3, then countDown = {3, 2, 1}, and the sample program outputs:

3 2 1 Go!
Sample program:

Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
using namespace std;

int main() {
   vector<int> countDown(0); 
   int newSize = 0;             
   int i = 0;                         

   newSize = 3;
   <STUDENT CODE>

   for (i = 0; i < newSize; ++i) {
      cout << countDown.at(i) << " ";
   }
   cout << "Go!" << endl;

   return 0;
}

i tried countDown.resize(newSize); but it didnt work.

Hi! ;)

That should work to resize the vector.
But I think you still have to populate the vector in order to get 3, 2, 1. (Thinking)
 
Thread 'Is this public key encryption?'
I've tried to intuit public key encryption but never quite managed. But this seems to wrap it up in a bow. This seems to be a very elegant way of transmitting a message publicly that only the sender and receiver can decipher. Is this how PKE works? No, it cant be. In the above case, the requester knows the target's "secret" key - because they have his ID, and therefore knows his birthdate.
I tried a web search "the loss of programming ", and found an article saying that all aspects of writing, developing, and testing software programs will one day all be handled through artificial intelligence. One must wonder then, who is responsible. WHO is responsible for any problems, bugs, deficiencies, or whatever malfunctions which the programs make their users endure? Things may work wrong however the "wrong" happens. AI needs to fix the problems for the users. Any way to...
