Where should I ask questions on programs on C/C++, in which I am facing some problems on Loop oriented programs. :/

2You'll need to add some more detail here; what kind of problems? Did you check the Stack Overflow FAQ to see if that might be a suitable site for your question? What other sites in the Stack Exchange network did you take a look at?– Martijn PietersMar 1, 2013 at 17:23

1Programming questions belong on StackOverflow. But if your question just consists of "here's my program, it's not working," you'll have to add more detail than that– David RobinsonMar 1, 2013 at 17:24

maybe the computer science section or stack overflow.– ManojMar 1, 2013 at 17:27

It's really hard to understand what you're asking, but I'll give it a shot.
If you're asking a question about programming C or C++, then Stack Overflow is the place to ask those questions.
But remember, you need to be specific in your problem. If you are vague in asking your question (hint: this question also seems vague), then it's likely that your question will be closed.

Do a seroius effort to find (and fix) your problem before posting. Slogging through the neverending stream of "My program crashes" (Yes, it does. Don't just define a pointer and assume it is magically an array of unspecified size) soon gets tiresome.– vonbrandMar 1, 2013 at 18:17
You can ask programming specific questions on Stack Overflow.
Here are few things to keep in mind:
- Read the faq before you post any questions.
- Read the about page to understand how Stack Overflow works.
Your question should have the following components:
- Code snippet where you are facing the issue
- The attempts you have made to fix/resolve it
- Including searches on the web or on Stack Overflow website itself. If you found search results, mention what did not help.
- Specific area in the code snippet where you are struggling to understand what it does.
- Avoid posting long code snippets.
