we have only learned while loops. That is why I am so confused.

**laserlight** · 03-08-2009

In that case, use a while loop like this instead of a for loop:

Code:

int i = 1;
while (i <= n) {
    // Insert code to request and read in user input and compute the sum
    // ...
    ++i;
}

I have this code:

Code:

numValues = 0;
   
  while (numValues < 5) { 
  
    numValues++;
        
    cout << "Enter value " << numValues <<  ": ";
    cin >> numEntered;

But I don't know how to make the sum after this. Could you just help me STILL (sorry) PLEASE? With a cherry on top?

You have the right idea in your original code:

Code:

sum += numEntered;
