    Sub-Programs

    I'm not sure how I would write a subprogram to display my name twenty times, each on a different line. Could someone help me?

    Okay. Write a program that displays your name once. Post it here in [code][/code] bbcode tags.

    Then I suggest you start here: C++ Tutorial start at the first link and continue studying the links until you understand where to start.
