I am trying to make a program that asks for a number, and if you give it the right number, it will give you a message telling you that it is either correct or incorrect.
Here's the code:
Can anyone tell me if I did something wrong or if I missed anything? I am new to cpp, so I'm kind of clueless. Thanks.Code:#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
int a;
cout<<"Enter a number: ";
cin>>a;
cin.ignore();
if(a==15){
cout<<"Correct!\n";
if(a!=15){
cout<<"Incorrect!\n";
cin.get();
}
}
What does your compiler have to say on the topic?Quote:

These kinds of simple mistakes are easily caught by them.
Also, inferring from your code, CONGRATULATIONS ....for using a _good_ compiler, not a prehistoric one !!
Where are your closing braces "}" for your if statements?
You could also use an if/else instead of the two separate if statements.
JimCode:if(a==15){
cout<<"Correct!\n";
}
else {
cout<<"Incorrect!\n";
}

hey thanks, it worked!
i believe your problem is "if(a!=15)"Code:#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
int a;
cout<<"Enter a number: ";
cin>>a;
cin.ignore();
if(a==15){
cout<<"Correct!\n";
if(a!=15){
cout<<"Incorrect!\n";
cin.get();
}
}
should have 2 "==" to look for equality and not assigning.
Except that != is not an assignment operator. You probably should read more of the replies before replying.Quote:
