Help with a situation
Ok, I am a college student who is not in a computer programming class advanced enough to complete this task I want. The girl Im with is a computer apps junkie and loves working out situations in C++. This is the cheesy-est thing I have ever done, but I want to ask her to be official through C++ or some sort of computer code. Fell free to laugh at me, but she will eat it up. Does anyone have any helpful ideas? I know this isn't something that is commonly proposed on these boards...
Someone made me a word scramble but apparently it didnt work. She uses Windows Visual Studio.
Thank You all...

Well, this is a terribly wrong section for this..
I think you might be able to move it though. Press "edit topic", find "Forum:" and select "Lounge".
Anyway, on the topic..
What is it that you are looking for? Some sort of programming problem, solving which would translate your message?

Simultaneously this is probably the cutest and funniest thing I've ever heard of!
You could probably write a small application, with an obvious bug in it. Then place a comment in there somewhere with "hey lets make this official", or whatever cheesy line you want. :D then ask her to help you debug it.
Another way could be to give her a logic puzzle that translates into your desired message, but this might be a little complicated.
Another way could be to grab your gonads and tell her straight :D but I'll leave your the method of delivery to you.
Good luck and I hope it works out for you! Let us know how it goes!

Nice idea. One guy recently made it into the news by creating a crossword puzzle with his proposal encoded then getting it published in the Washington Post for his lady to solve.

Google around obfuscation to make a program that doesn't look quite right, but when compiled and run it prints your message.
Make sure to perform some XOR mangling to each character of your program's message.
For example:
XOR 5 becomes
Hope this helps.

You can also simply use escape sequences.
ends up as
"\x49\x20\x4c\x6f\x76\x65\x20\x59\x6f\x65\x21"ends up as
| "I Love You!" |
Depending on what you mean by make it official...you could take the route that Ian McConville (web comic artist of MacHall and now 3panelsoul) took to propose to his (now) wife. He made a simple game where she was the protagonist, after the final boss he (in pixel art format) got down on one knee and proposed. When this happened he was right behind her in the same position as his 8bit counter part.
If you're not looking for a tactic to ask her to marry you? I think any of the above posts would work ;)

I just taught myself how to do a Basic Hello World.. kinda alter it to a few clickable buttons, with a message. It's dumb easy, but she will enjoy the fact I learned for her... Thanks Everyone!
@ OP: You need to learn from this guy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fii-KPEmcMw
