After trying to contact someone from windows what for some reason they want to charge you for I have decided to soilder on.

So as I said before I got to write this program-it should beep when the user enters values for time and frequency. I been looking at what I done before, track calcultaor and simple beep program and add the the two together.

so far i have came up with this

Code: Select all: #include <iostream> //Input Output header for cout #include <windows.h> //Windows header for beep #define BYTE 8 //Constant for 8-bits in a byte #define KByte 1024 //Constant for Kbyte #define beep 440-659 using namespace std; //Use standard Library int main () //Main program begins here { int frequency, time; cout<<"Please enter the frequency value between 440 to 659\n"

#define beep 400-659 should mean that it will beep between them freqeuncies. Could anyone tell me if I am heading in the right direction please.

Here take a look at this site here it will give you what the beep notes are and at what frequency. I think you would want to use const instead of define but I am not a professional still a noob in training , but I think define was more a C use. I don't know if this is even possible even though it does compile

Code: Select all: #define beep 440-659

if you feel you need to call them global then maybe you could give them a note name like

Code: Select all: const short A = 440; const short B = 494;

you could do the same with your notes duration also, give them a name

If you need somebody to test if it is working you could post your code here and ask to see if it is working for you

Thanks. Looking at it now I think I will take out

Code: Select all: #define BYTE 8 //Constant for 8-bits in a byte #define KByte 1024 //Constant for Kbyte

and look up const. got a felling it my be a long program

You should have posted all three of these posts together, man. They're all related and belong in the same thread.
