Whats wrong? I get the message "your a teenager" no matter what number I type.Code:#include <cstdlib> #include <iostream> using namespace std; int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { cout << "Hi! How old are you?\n"; int age; cin>> age; if (13>age>19) {cout << "Well, your' not a teenager, thats for sure.\n";} else if (13<=age<=19) { cout << "You are a teenager.\n";} cin.ignore(); cin.get(); return 0; }
This syntax doesn't work as you thing it does. First it does this 13>age, which returns true if the number is under 13. Then this will be done true>19 or false>19. Because true equals to 1 and false to 0, then the whole thing will always return false.Code:if (13>age>19){
And the same way the second comprision always returns true.

Use the boolean && to combine expressions in an if.
Obviously this is wrong cause it didnt work but whats wrong.Code:if (13>age && age>19) {cout << "Well, your' not a teenager, thats for sure.\n";} else if (13<=age && age<=19)
Think about what you wrote. I'll type it in english: If 13 is greater than the age and the age is greater than 19 then print out "Not a teenager."
In that case maybe && isn't appropriate? The other option is || (hopefully you have learned that && means "and" and || means "or").
Ohhhh now I seeThanks!
