I've got a utility that outputs a list of files required by a game.  How can I run that utility within a C program and grab its output so I can act on it within the same program? UPDATE: Good call on the lack of information.  The utility spits out a series of strings, and this is supposed to be portable across Mac/Windows/Linux.  Please note, I'm looking for a programmatic way to execute the utility and retain its output (which goes to stdout).
I am looking for a way to get the output of a command when it is run from within a C++ program.  I have looked at using the system() function, but that will just execute a command. Here's an example of what I'm looking for:  std::string result = system("./some_command");   I need to run an arbitrary command and get its output. I've looked at , but I have not found anything that will give me what I need.
Explicit construction of a finite field with $p^n$ elements It appears that in PHP objects are passed by reference. Even assignment operators do not appear to be creating a copy of the Object.  Here's a simple, contrived proof:  &lt;?php  class A {     public $b; }   function set_b($obj) { $obj-&gt;b = "after"; }  $a = new A(); $a-&gt;b = "before"; $c = $a; //i would especially expect this to create a copy.  set_b($a);  print $a-&gt;b; //i would expect this to show 'before' print $c-&gt;b; //i would ESPECIALLY expect this to show 'before'  ?&gt;   In both print cases I am getting 'after'  So, how do I pass $a to set_b() by value, not by reference?

I was having trouble playing the game on my android so I downloaded it to my wife's phone (Galaxy S6). I read some posts on how to get it running on my android and it worked but, my level 7 account is on my wife's phone.  How do I get it back to my android?

Excel "if-then" formula IF(B4-40&lt;0,0,(B4-40))   Above is my formula to show only positive numbers above 40 in the given cell. If my hours are, let's say, 35, I do not want a value of -5; I want the cell value to be 0. Why is this not working? If $P(|X-19.1| \leq a) = 0.98$ then why is it necessarily $P(\frac{X-19.1}{17} \leq \frac{a}{17})= 0.99$? Email Templates: Conditional Greeting Based on Time of Day When should I use  or >()? I know that &lt;, &lt;(), &lt;&lt; all are used to give input and  &gt;, &gt;() which are used to redirect output.  But I don't know what is clear difference between them and when to use them.  Please explain in detail and along with references if possible. Thanks GCD of rationals Disclaimer: I'm an engineer, not a mathematician  Somebody claimed that $\gcd$ only is applicable for integers, but it seems I'm perfectly able to apply it to rationals also:    $$ \gcd\left(\frac{13}{6}, \frac{3}{4} \right) = \frac{1}{12} $$  I can do this for a number of cases on sight, but I need a method. I tried Euclid's algorithm, but I'm not sure about the end condition: a remainder of 0 doesn't seem to work here.    So I tried the following:    $$\gcd\left(\frac{a}{b}, \frac{c}{d} \right) = \frac{\gcd(a\cdot d, c \cdot b)}{b \cdot d}$$  This seems to work, but I'm just following my intuition, and I would like to know if this is a valid equation, maybe the correct method. (It is in any case consistent with $\gcd$ over the natural numbers.)  I'm not a mathematician, so please type slowly :-) How do I enter a strong (long) DKIM key into DNS? What is a word/idiom for 'unable to decide'? Let's say I have an important decision to make and I can't decide between two competing things (like break up with a girl or not break up with her).

Is there some rare language construct I haven't encountered (like the few I've learned recently, some on Stack Overflow) in C# to get a value representing the current iteration of a foreach loop?  For instance, I currently do something like this depending on the circumstances:  int i = 0; foreach (Object o in collection) {     // ...     i++; } I just made a minor , and  the grammar correction was unnecessary.

Prove that $(1+2+3...+n)|(1^k+2^k+3^k+...+n^k)$ for all positive integers $n$.  My Attempt: Proof (By Induction on $k$): Let $P(k)$ be the proposition that $(1+2+3...+n)|(1^k+2^k+3^k+...+n^k)$ for all positive integers $n$ when $k$ is odd. Then $P(1)$ and $P(3)$ are trivially true. So for $k\geq 5$, we assume that $P(k)$ holds. We would like to show that $P(k+2)$ also holds. In order to do that consider the following sums  $$1^{2}(1^k+2^k+3^k+...+n^k)=1^{k+2}+2^k+3^k+...+n^k$$ $$2^{2}(1^k+2^k+3^k+...+n^k)=2^2*1^k+2^{k+2}+2^2*3^k+...+2^2*n^k$$ $$..$$ $$n^2(1^k+2^k+3^k+...+n^k)=n^2*1^k+n^2*2^k+n^2*3^k+...+n^{k+2}$$ Note that $$1^2(1^k+2^k+3^k+...+n^k)+2^2(1^k+2^k+3^k+...+n^k)+...+n^2(1^k+2^k+3^k+...+n^k)\equiv 0\pmod {\frac{n(n+1)}{2}}$$  Therefore, if we denote $\sum_{i=1}^{n}i^2=s$, then    $(t)(1^k+2^k+3^k+...+n^k)-t+\sum_{i=1}^{n}i^{k+2}\equiv 0\pmod {\frac{n(n+1)}{2}}$ which implies that $P(k+2)$ holds. Hence by PMI we are done.  Now I am a bit hesitant in convincing myself whether this proof is correct or not. This is because I have never seen induction performed in this manner. Any reasons as to why this argument falls would be much appreciated. Application_End global.asax Can anybody tell me when Application_End is triggered in a lifecycle of an application?
