The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

'double' variable problem??????

Asked by troy24 in C++ Programming Language

I am creating a service report and the users have to enter in the time they started to the time they finished and I want to calculate the amount of hours they have worked.  The method I am using seems to work the odd time but I am having trouble getting it to work all the time.  I am using double variables and I am not sure if I should be using them. I am also changing the time into 24 hr clock if the starttime is larger than the endtime.
eg. starttime  11.00  endtime 2.00->14.00
This works all the time but it is when you subtract the time such as 1.15 to 2.00, you get 0. 45  but I want it to be .75 because you have worked 3/4 of an hour.  I am only doing it in 15 minute intervals so I didn't think it woul be that difficult.  This is how I am doin it.
if (m_hourswork==0.45) //45 minutes worked
    m_hourswork=0.75;
if m_hourswork==0.15)  //15 minutes worked
   m_hourswork=0.25)
I do this for all 15 min intervals and every hour upto 10 hours because no one will work more than 10.  The method I am using seems to work from time to time so I think it may be the 'double' varibles I am using.

Thank You for the help!!
Greatly Needed
