      That's what I remember from my C++ days... But maybe it is a C++ compiler issue and in reality you do not have to add it...

      Was mostly curiosity, I just remember doing conversions by hand in the first CS class I took in college. Binary we had to group in sets of 4, everything else was just the value I think.

        After reading OG's post about ARPANET 50 years ago I started to wonder who is the oldest/youngest active member here (age not membership)?

        I will be 53 in < 2 months. :) This would make a nice formal survey imo. It would at least tell you what age group is most likely to take a survey! :laugh:

            Inside every old person is a young person, wondering what the hell happened.:)

            If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

            Every morning when I look in the mirror I wonder who is in my house - I don't look like that from the inside!

                      I was born 1955 - "still coding after all these years". I believe that is a lyric to one of those ballads you youngsters call 'pop' songs. 8)

                          Not the oldest, and have only posted twice before, but I do follow CP daily. Born 1951. Employed as a programmer from 1972 to 2017. Now retired but still programming as a volunteer for a Christian organization. And for those talking about fathers, my father was born in 1893 and fought in both world wars. 1914-1918 for the British Army, in Greece. 1939-1945 for the Australian Air Force, in the Middle East.

                                          Born 1956 so just a young 'un. Father too young to fight in the war but an uncle spent some time in North Africa where he was captured, met Rommel (" a REAL gentleman, not like that bugger Montgomery.."), escaped (sort of - an allied armoured column drove in and the Africa Corp left in such a hurry they neglected to take their prisoners..). :laugh:
