    how to write this program

    I am taking a course in C language and have a practice assignment that I can't figure out. Here it is (how do I do this?):

    Write a program that displays the characters A through G and their values using a while loop to repeat and printing.
    Sample output:
    The numeric value of A is 65.
    The numeric value of B is 66.
    The numeric value of C is 67.
    The numeric value of D is 68.
    The numeric value of E is 69.
    The numeric value of F is 70.
    The numeric value of G is 71.

    Thank you for your help!

    What have you tried? What don't you understand?

    Look at what your output is supposed to be. See what is repeated in each line (that's a good hint at using a loop). See what is different. Compare the differences between lines, and see what you need to do from one line to the next to make that difference happen. See if there's a pattern there, and if so, do that in a loop. If you have never used a loop because you were busy sleeping instead of taking your class, you should read the loops tutorial on the site.

    Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment.
