Thread: The Vending machine dilemma! <3 Thanks ahead of time for the help.

Here is part of my code:

Code:

char selection;
double item_cost;
double amount;
double owed;
double total; 


printf("\nPlease deposit your money by selection:\n1: %.2f\n2: %.2f\n3: %.2f\n4: %.2f\n5: %.2f\n",5.00,1.00,0.25,0.10,0.05);

printf("Deposit amount:%d");
scanf("%lg", &amount); 

printf("Price of Item %c is %lg", &selection, &item_cost);
	
printf("Balanced entered:%lg", &amount);

Here is the output I am trying to replicate:

Code:

Please deposit your money by selection:
     1-$5.00
     2-$1.00
     3-$0.25
     4-$0.10
     5-$0.05

Deposit Amount: 1

------------------------------
Price of Item: k is $1.00

Balance Entered: $5.00

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm confused on how i get the 1/2/3/4/5 to equal the right price since the deposited amount is being represented by the selection and not the price.

try using a switch statement

Code:

int choice;

printf("please deposite your money by selection:");
printf("1");
and so on...

scanf("%d", &choice);

switch(choice)
{
case 1:
break;

case 2:
break;
}

then you can write separate functions for each case....
