C++

[scoobydude]

Wow, I haven't been here in a long time!
Well, I decided I wanted to make a C++ program, and I didn't feel like reading my book (go figure) so could you help me on this one?

I guess you'll kinda get the idea of what I want...
I think there might be some #include thing to use booleans.



#include <iostream.h>
#include <string>

string int1, int2, int3;
bool go;

int main()
{
cout << "Type in a number, press enter, then type in another, and press enter." << endl;
cout << "I will tell you the sum of those two numbers." << endl;
while(go == true)
{
cin >> int1;
cin >> int2;
if(int1 == "exit" || int2 == "exit")
break;
cout << int1 << " + " << int2 << " = " << int1+int2;
}
return 0;
}

Hmm.. my best guess...

I don't see where the variable go is given a value (like in an option to exit the loop)? :bambooz:

[voicebox]

Hey Kool dude,

I think the loop is exited here:

if(int1 == "exit" || int2 == "exit")
break;

[scoobydude]

hmmm... answering his question, but not mine. ;)

[Orphious]

why not just read in the variables in one swoop
cin<<num1<<num2; so you dont have to fool with people screwin up the number then enter second number
go doesnt seem to be assigned a value either.
your testing for go == true, but where did you ever declare what go was, either true or false.

[scoobydude]

hiya orphious! my old pal...
if i do cin >> num1 >> num2 wont they both be the same thing?

[Orphious]

as long as they are seperated they wont. like so
they enter 87 91. cin<<num1<<num2 will set num1=87 and num2=91

[scoobydude]

but then they could type 55 44 33 55

what would it do then?

[Orphious]

If you expect people to not follow directions you would need some error checking

[scoobydude]

so, hows it goin? :D

[Orphious]

just finished up all the c++ classes for my university, so I now know, recursion, classes, linked lists, structs, and a buttload more things, Or do I?

[scoobydude]

Can you do windows programs or just console ones?

[Orphious]

They never teach you anything useful. I can do console ones......dont ask me what I will do with that. I'd like to learn windows programming just for kicks but all the programming classes where in the console :(

[scoobydude]

can you write me a personalized program?

[Orphious]

Describe "personalized program"

[scoobydude]

i dunno
one that has my name in it ?

[Orphious]

You mean in a console?

[scoobydude]

hey this is almost like instant messaging!

[scoobydude]

sure in a console

[Orphious]

ya IM me hehe :D You know how to display you name in the console. Im not following this.
<---- confused as hell

[scoobydude]

make me a program that says "Hello!" every 10 seconds

[Orphious]

why? You just want one that say hello every ten seconds?

[scoobydude]

yes!

[im testing your skill] :P

[Orphious]

ok, ill do it tomorrow perhaps. Im workin on a flash intro at the moment

[scoobydude]

Well if it's so easy, why cant you make it and go back to work?

[Orphious]

besides, I am working on flash so I dont feel like it right now.
