hey everybody i'm Really new at C++ programming and as sort of a little test for myself i've decided to make a short little program which takes two numbers the user enters and multiplies them and it works with no problems, except that when i put in 2 * 2 it gives me 146 as an answer? i looked at it and i see nothing wrong with it so i was hoping maybe someone here can find whats wrong with it. my code is
if anyone can help me with this problem i would appreciate it greatlym thanksCode:#include <iostream> using namespace std; int main() { int x; int y; cout<<"enter 2 numbers to be multiplied "; cin>> x,y; cin.ignore(); cout<<"the answer is "<< x * y; system (" pause"); }
