Thread: Having trouble with a code on "if" statement

Here is the code:

Code:

#include <windows.h>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
void SetWindow(int Width, int Height)
    {
    _COORD coord;
    coord.X = Width;
    coord.Y = Height;
    _SMALL_RECT Rect;
    Rect.Top = 0;
    Rect.Left = 0;
    Rect.Bottom = Height - 1;
    Rect.Right = Width - 1;
    HANDLE Handle = GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE);      // Get Handle
    SetConsoleScreenBufferSize(Handle, coord);            // Set Buffer Size
    SetConsoleWindowInfo(Handle, TRUE, &Rect);            // Set Window Size
    }
int main(void)
    {
    SetWindow(100,50);
    cout << "Hello world!" << endl << "The End is Nigh" << endl;
    int thisisanumber;
    int n;
    cout << "Please enter a Number here: ";
    cin>> thisisanumber;
    cin>> n;
    cin.ignore();
    cout<< "You entered: "<<thisisanumber <<"/"<<n;
    cin.get();
    if(cin>> n == true);
    {
        cout << "than what is the number:"<<thisisanumber;
    }
    }

but cannot figure out this "if" statement
any help would be greatly appreciated

error = if(cin>> n == true);

thnx

sorry about messiness the auto format on the forum destroys all format I put in before

Code:

if ( cin >> x )

Should work

Code:

if(cin>> n == true);

Tried this and it gave me syntax error
";" needed

Will retry this but I think I got a syntax error "==" is not a valid parameter

I'm new to C++ but you did an input for n on line 26. But the if statement is used to make some kind of comparison, so why did you use cin<< inside the brackets at all. And Matticus is right you don't use a a semicolon after a if statement.
