Thread: last resort

i tried everything, i guest is not enough :-) if some one willing to help i appreciated
this is the one of so many trial i have done. but still doesn't work

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
main()
{
    int a=0, b=0, c=0, d=0, e=0, f=0, g=0, h=0, i=0, j=0, what = 0;
	
	
	c = 10;
	e = 6;
	g = 2;
	j = 1;

	while (what<10 )
	{
	
		if (a == 0,b && c != 0)
			a = b + c;

			
		if (b == 0,a && c != 0 || d && e != 0)
			b = d + e;
			b = a - c;
		
		
		if (c == 0,e && f != 0 || a && b != 0)
			c = e + f;
			c = a - b;
		
		
		if (d == 0,g && h != 0 || b && e != 0)
			d = g + h;
			d = b - e;
		
		if (e == 0,h && i != 0 || b && d != 0 || c && f != 0)
			e = h + i;
			e = c - f;
			e = b - d;
		
		if (f == 0,i && j != 0 || c && e !=0 || f && j != 0)
			f = i + j;
			f = c - e;
		
		if (g == 0,d && h != 0)
			g = d - h;
		
		if (h == 0,d && g != 0 || e && i !=0)
			h = e - i;
			h = d - g;
		
		if (i == 0,e && h != 0 || f && j !=0)
			i = e - h;
			i = f - j;
		
		
		if (j == 0,f && i != 0)
			j = f - i;
		
		what++;
		

		printf("\n         %d  \n", a);
		printf("\n      %d     %d  \n", b, c);
		printf("\n   %d     %d     %d     \n", d, e, f);
		printf("\n%d     %d     %d      %d \n", g, h, i, j);
		
	}

What is your program supposed to do?

thanks for the advise, but i did try everything that i know but it seams i don't know enough, the program is a pyramid that the top number is the sum of the 2 numbers below it. but some of the number is known, and can put in various place in the pyramid. and can some one tell me also how to write flow chart for it
@iMAc i will look at the && operator again, please keep helping me thanks.
thanks again if u have any other suggestion please don't hesitate.

Why would any body will hesitate dude to help you out if you write a program which can be read. There are loads of compile time errors there. You are telling us what you want to do. Means a logic but your C/C++ syntax even are not correct at each and every line i think. What iMac is telling try to learn how if statement and operators work. Learn those things and try to improve the code and then post it here

it's working if i enter the value for (a,b,e,g,h) but why it's not working if i change the value to (c,e,g,i) why do i have zero, is it because the while loop?

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
main()
{
    int a = 0, b = 0, c = 0, d = 0, e = 0, f = 0, g = 0, h = 0, i = 0, j = 0 ;
	char what='?';
	
	a = 32;				
	b = 16;
	e = 8;
	g = 4;
	j = 4;


/*	c = 10;
	e = 6;
	g = 2;
	j = 1;
*/



	         /*printf("\n         %c  \n", a);
		printf("\n      %c     %c  \n", b, what);
		printf("\n   %c     %c     %c     \n", what, e, what);
		printf("\n%c     %c     %c      %c \n", g, what, what, j);*/

	while (!(a&&b&&c&&d&&e&&f&&g&&h&&i&&j))
	{

// first triangle
		if(b&&c )
			a = b + c;
		if(a&&c )
			b = a - c;
		if(a&&b )
			c = a - b;
	
//second triangle
		if(d&&e )
			b = d + e;
		if(b&&e )
			d = b - e;
		if(b&&d )
			e = b - d;
		
// third triangle
		if(e&&f )
			c = e + f;
		if(c&&f )
			e = c - f;
		if(c&&e )
			f = c - e;
		
// forth triangle
		if(g&&h )
			d = g + h;
		if(d&&h )
			g = d - h;
		if(d&&g )
			h = d - g;
		
// fifth triagle
		if(h&&i )
			e = h + i;
		if(e&&i )
			h = e - i;
		if(e&&h )
			i = e - h;
		
// sixth triangle
		if(i&&j )
			f = i + j;
		if(f&&j )
			i = f - j;
		if(f&&i )
			j = f - i;
		
		printf("\n         %d  \n", a);
		printf("\n      %d     %d  \n", b, c);
		printf("\n   %d     %d     %d     \n", d, e, f);
		printf("\n%d     %d     %d      %d \n", g, h, i, j);

		getchar ();
	}
