Little help with constructors...
Author
Some1 told me in another thread that I should put
SRAND(time(NULL))
in a constructor... how do i do that,
I know how to put variables in there but just
sticking that in the constructor doesn''t work.
Ps. Yes I am relatively new to programming in C++
Why do you say it doesn''t work? A constructor is similar to a function; you should have no problems putting that in there.

I had a gambling game (don''t ask) in which i rolled a dice, and some1 told me that I should put that in the constructor of the class instead of making it do that every time it goes through the member function.
Am I making any sense?

Makes sense, but do you understand what a constructor is? There is no reason why you can''t put SRAND(time(NULL)) in one.

when I put
being the constructor in the class or
It gives me an error when I compile...
crapstable():{srand (time (NULL));} being the constructor in the class or
crapstable():srand (time (NULL)){} It gives me an error when I compile...
yeah you can''t do that. here''s how you do a constructor:
the : operator after the fctn is usually used to call a base class constructor with certain parameters. you should re-read the classes and constructors/destructors of you C++ book. it seems you are unclear what/how to use them

class CrapsTable {public: CrapsTable() { SRAND(time(NULL)); }}; the : operator after the fctn is usually used to call a base class constructor with certain parameters. you should re-read the classes and constructors/destructors of you C++ book. it seems you are unclear what/how to use them

Hey guys. That someone was me, a few days ago. I should have gone over constructors then. Thanks for explaining things.
Infuscare, sorry about that mate. Good luck with the game.
