Visual C++ :: Program That Take Input From A User And Calculate It In A Do While Loop
May 15, 2013
I'm trying to create a program that will take input from a user and calculate it in a do-while loop. The program does the calculation but the answer is wrong. The loop also doesn't work. The purpose of the program is to see how much an item will cost after a discount is taken off and tax is added.
#include <iostream>
#include <cmath>
using namespace std;
double original_cost;
double discount;
double tax;
double total;
char answer;

I am trying to create a program that will calculate pi based on a user input for accuracy. If the user input .3 then when the leibniz infinite sum value at a particular i becomes less then the input of .3 then the loop will exit.
I have looked at a number of examples on the internet but I feel lost. I have put together working code that will infinitely output sums but I need the loop to stop when the sum value is less then the accuracy value.
My question is what is wrong with my while loop, why will it only give me infinite summations? How do I make it so that the loop will exit when my accuracy input is greater then the sum?
int main () {
double accuracy;
cout<<"Give an accurate number." << flush;//looks nice
cin>>accuracy;
int d;//initialize denominator
double pi = 0.0;
while(accuracy < d){

I am stuck on an exercise where i am supposed to use a loop to take user input and keep a running sum until the user enters a 0. the code i have so far is:
#include <iostream>
int main() {
using namespace std;
int num;
int total = 0;
int x;
[Code] ....
The full text of the error message is: error c2678:binary'>>':no operator found which takes a left-hand operand of type 'std::istream' . and one more thing i was wondering, is there a difference between c++ and visual c++?

I'm trying to write a C++ program that will allow a user to input a number from the keyboard. Then using a loop, that will perform 10 times, multiply the entered number by the loop counter. Print out the loop counter, the entered number and the product of the loop counter and the entered number. A one-time heading should be displayed before information is printed.
This kinda of what I have so far:
#include <iosteam>
using namespace std;
int main () {
Start
Declare: numScores, sum, score, avg, SENTINEL = 200
numScores = 0
[Code] ....
All the programs I have tried to make are not working?

I have to write a program where the user will input integer numbers. How many numbers they enter is unknown, therefor you should use a repetition structure for the input. When the user is done, they will enter -1 to exit.
Create a dynamic array if the size=2( the initial size must be 2) Repeat until user enters -1.
I have to do this without using vectors.
This is what i have, I cannot figure out what to put in main. I was thinking of a do-while?
Code:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
void resize(int *[], int);
int main() {
int *listDyn;
int size=2;
[code].....

I need starting a do-while loop in my program that runs up to 10 time that asks the user to enter up to 10 scores, which include the slope and rating for the course, and calculates the handicap for each score. Here's what I have so far:
//This program calculates a golfers handicap.
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main(){
int score, slope;
double rating, handicap;

I have this code that im stuck on what i need to do is Extend the code such that when it starts the user is asked to input values to specify each of the three ranges before moving on to accept and tally the main values how do i do that Using a for loop to input and output array values Also calculate the average
*/
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void)
{
/* Declare an array of integers */
int Grades[5];
int nCount;
int nTotal = 0; /* Declare and initialise the value */
float fAverage;

I have created a program to calculate different measurements for a cylinder. Anyways, the end user has to input 3 variables.
Enter the lower radius: 6
Enter the upper radius: 5
Enter slant height: 2.236
The numbers are what "End User" would input. But I need to make it look like this when said "End User inputs the numbers.
Enter the lower radius: 6
Enter the upper radius: 5
Enter slant height: 2.236
Here is what I have for it, but I don't know what to put where.
printf("
Enter the lower radius: ");
scanf("%f", &lower_rad);
printf("Enter the upper radius: ");
scanf("%f", &upper_rad);
printf("Enter slant height: ");
scanf("%f", &slant_h);

So I have to make a program that allows the user to enter both positive and negative numbers and the program is suppose to calculate the sum of only the positive values while ignoring the negative values. Also it is to be a sentinel-controlled loop with a number ending the set of values.

I am trying to code a program that takes in user inputted data about percentages and using it to later on calculate a final grade. 4 percents are inputted, for Assignments, Midterm1, Midterm2, and Finals. If the percents dont add up to 1 (i tell the user to enter the decimal value) I set up and if statement to catch it and end the program. Except that if i type in
Assignments = .3
Midterm1 = .3
Midterm2 = .3
Finals = .1
the program doesn't recognize that they add up to 1. Heres the relevant portion of my code [URL] ....
Here's some examples of how it works [URL] ....
And heres what i dont understand [URL] ....
Why is it saying .3 + .3 + .3 + .1 != 1 when .1 + .3 + .3 + .3 == 1?

I have tried writing a code which takes two numbers from the user and calculates their square root then the roots are added up to return the sum. The program is coming out with loads of errors.
#include<iostream>
#include<cmath>
float main(){
using namespace std;
float m1,m2,m3,m4,m5;

I'm trying to make a c++ program of this but i don't know how to use the bubble sorting.
Write a C++ application that asks the user to enter 10 numbers. The program then stores those numbers in an Array. The program should display the Mean , Median, and Mode.
Mean is the average of the 10 numbers.
Median is the average of the 5th and the 6th numbers. (But you have to arrange the numbers in ascending order first using Bubble Sort before calculating the Median.)
Mode is the most frequent number among the 10 numbers.

I have been working on a program to calculate the factorial of numbers. Part of my code is copied and modified from the FAQ about validating numbers in user input.
I have encountered a problem with the for loop that I am using near the end of my code. No matter what I do, it seems that my loop only does the multiplication of b = a*(a-1) and then prints. For example, inputting 5 will result in a print of 20, but the factorial is 120.
Code:
int main(void) {
char buf[BUFSIZ];
char *p;
long int a;
long int b;
long int i;
printf ("Enter a number to be factorialized: ");
[Code] ....

I have a small loop that gets the user input, as well as acts as input validation to make sure he or she doesn't enter a value that is not within the specified range.
The user is supposed to enter a month number. E.g. if he or she chooses February, then enter 2, or December, 12.
It works correctly if they type a number that is not in the range, but goes into an infinite loop if, say, they type a string such as "month".
Code:
int main() {
// Variable Declaration(s)/Initialization(s)
int month=0;
// Get input
cout<<"Enter a month";
cin>>month;
[Code] ....
How could I go about revising this?

I'm trying to get this program to loop the number of times I get it to input. The program compiles alright, and it does loop when I tell it too, but how do I output the grades of the multiple students?

#include <string>
#include <cstdlib>
int weighted1 = 0;

struct stu_dat //outside main function
{
int rollno;
char name[45],
float average;
[Code] ....
No compilation problem.when executing prompt waits for inputting rollno, but, as soon as i enter a char string it keeps looping displaying the "want to enter more data?".i cant understand what is going on,as there is no compilation problem and runs good till i input the name.

In short, I'm trying to make a CLI for a project that can take multiple user inputs add I don't exactly know what I'm doing. I'm able to get cin to take one user input, but that's all I'm sure about.

I'm not sure what the program's purpose is?
1) Ask the user to enter a sentence. Until you reach the end of the sentence, test each character to count the number of spaces and letters.
2) For every space counted, print "SPACE", then print one "!" for every letter counted on an indented line underneath the "SPACE".
Your test sentence to use is: "The potash feldspars are important rock-forming minerals in plutonic, volcanic, and metamorphic rocks."
HINT: You do not need any strings. You need one while loop and two for loops. <cctype>

The purpose of this program is to unscramble the user's input. for example if the user entered 'ftooabll' the program would print 'football'. find the error that I am making....
Now, this only works for strings that are contained in the file wordlist. That being said, I would like this to repeat this search multiple times. Currently, the process is being repeated 7 times, but it only works on the first iteration. The code and sample input/output is below.
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#define NUMLOOP 6
void sort_string(char*);
[Code] ....
Sample input/output: (note: all data has been verified to be in the wordlist)
Enter string:
4132dcba
abcd1234
Enter string:
4132dcba
Enter string:
4132dcba
Enter string:
4132dcba
Enter string:
4132dcba
Enter string:
4132dcba
Enter string:
4132dcba

So I have to write a step in my program that reads in up to 8 variables. Simple, but if the User submits an invalid value, I have to give an error message and ask him to re-enter the value until he enters a valid number. Here's my while loop that works perfectly:
Code:
while (true) {
printf("
Enter the mark given by Judge 1: ");
scanf("%f", &m1);
if ((m1 >= 0.0) && (m1 <= 10.0)) {
break;
}
[code]...
I'm not sure what to write in the else statement to make the programme understand that it has to repeat the exact same step but without adding 1 to index. Is this possible or do I have to suck it up and just use while loops instead? I'm very new to programming.

Write a program that calculates the average of a stream of positive numbers. The user can enter as many positive numbers as they want, and they will indicate that they are finished by entering a negative number. For this program, treat zero as a positive number, i.e., zero counts as a number that goes into the average. Of course, the negative number should not be part of the average. You must use a function to read in the numbers, keep track of the running sum and count, compute the average, and return the average to the main() function. Note that you must use a loop to do this, as you don't know how many numbers the user will enter ahead of time. I am having problem writing a loop program for it..

I'm suppose to write a program using (for loop) that asks the user to enter any amount of numbers, so that it can display the smallest and largest. My program successfully finds the largest, but it is always displaying 0 for the smallest, I think Im doing something wrong with the internalization but I dont know what to change it to.
This is what I have ....
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main() {
int amount;
int count;
int number = 0;
int smallest = 0;
int largest = 0;
cout << "Enter total numbers to process: ";

Okay, so my assignment for my C class is to generate a program that will allow the user to enter data for a stock and calculate the amount of stocks that ended up being positive, negative, and neutral.I tried to do this using one stock, here is my code;
#define _CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS
#include <iostream>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
Code:
void main()
{
float Neg;
float incst;
float shrs;
float bpps;
float crnt;
float crntcst;
float yrfes;
float pft;
float tpft;
}

I just started programming and want to make the game cows and bulls. The problem is that after the loop has ended and both vectors are not the same I want the user to 're-input' the starting variables a,b,c&d but I don't know how to.
Code:
#include "std_lib_facilities.h"
int comparison(int a, int b, int c, int d)
{
vector<int>bc={ 1, 2, 4, 9 };

This code is near complete, the only task that is left is allowing the user to input a decimal and then two integers, or automatically using .00 decimal.
The automatic part: /*This is not correct.
printf(".%.2d
", number);
*/
But that does no good for me. Question: Do I have to create a some sort of while loop again, to allow the user to input a decimal followed by integer?
Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>
using namespace std;
int main() {
int j , i = 0, k = 0;
int number;
