Pythagorean Numbers

hey i really need help, how can i generate a simple coding of pythagorean table where it reads the upper right triangle? together, how to get table parameters, use nested loops (which prints out the raw list of all Pythagorean-candidates (do not need to store in an array) & how to extract the pythagorean numbers? i would really really apreciate it, thanks y'all very much for support

sure, we'll help you out with all of your questions after youve made the slightest attempt to try yourself, and post your results/errors/specific questions.

Code:

---

#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <math.h>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
        int m, mm;
        double xm;
        int i, j;
        int c;

        //Get candidate-table dimensions
        cout << "This program generates Pythagorean candidate numbers in a table.\n\n";
        cout << "Type the absolute P-candidate maximum M:\n";
        cin  >> m;

        xm = m+1;
        mm = sqrt(xm/2.);
        cout << "The row/column size of the candidate table is: " << mm << "\n\n\n";

        for( j = 2; j < mm; j++ )
        {
                cout << setw(5) << j;
        }
        cout << "\n\n";

        //Generates table
        for( i = 1; i < mm - 1; i++ )
        {
                cout << "R= " << setw(2) << i;

                for( j = 2; j <= i; j++ )
                {
                        c = (( i * i ) + ( j * j ));
                        cout << setw(5) << c;
                }
                cout << "\n";
        }
        cout << endl;

        system( "Pause" );
        return 0;
}        //end main

but what i need is to display on the upper right side

is something different than:

the first one seems like its some math thing that i dont know about ("upper right triangle"), the second one seems that you want some output to be right-aligned from the top of the screen. in this case, you have to figure out the "padding" (filling your output with spaces or some other character in order to make it look the way you want).

say your monitor is N characters wide, and we have a character string of length K to print. how do you get this to appear "right-aligned"? N-K spaces (" ") followed by your output. for example, for an output line width of 5 and with string "abc" like (top line is column number:

Code:

---

12345
  abc

---

if you do it this way, you would have to know how wide the output screen is (terminal or console window), because it isnt a fixed size. i dont do stuff like this and im not familiar with this tool, but i think "ncurses" may work.
