/* The program determines the gross pay and ouputs the following
format:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Clock# Wage Hours Gross
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
98401 10.60 51.0 540.60

*/

#include <stdio.h>

main ()
{
/* declare variables */

int clock;
float wage;
float hours;
float gross;

/* set values */
gross = wage * hours;

/* begin output */

printf ("--------------------------------------------------------------\n");
printf ("Clock# Wage Hours Gross \n");
printf ("--------------------------------------------------------------\n");
printf ("Please enter a Clock#");
scanf("%i",&clock);
printf ("Please enter wage");
scanf("%i",&wage);
printf ("Please enter hours worked");
scanf("%i",&hours);
printf ("%i %f %f %f\n", clock, wage, hours, gross);
}

You'll need to do -

/* set values */
gross = wage * hours;

after the variables have meaningful values. This expression will only be evaluated once, gross won't be updated everytime wage or hours is.

...and main should return an int.

I tried moveing the gross formula later in the problem but I still don't seem to get the entered values for wage or hours to display or gross. all 3 come up as zeros. But clock# works....

Check your format specifications in scanf, you're trying to read floats as integers.

thnx for the help. changeing those %i to %f fixed it.

one question though. How do i limit the decimal places too 2 places?

[Sorensen]

Change your output statement to -

printf ("%i %g %g %g\n", clock, wage, hours, gross);

[Sorensen]

...sorry should be -

printf ("%i %.2f %.2f %.2f\n", clock, wage, hours, gross);
