Thread: Division using repeated subtraction

Okay so I am suppose to write a program that divides two numbers without using the operator "/"
So i try writing the program using repeated subtraction, but I dont know if I am doing this right at all.

Heres my code

Code:

#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
        int a, b, max, min, results, count;
        max = 2000000000;
        min = -2000000000;
        results = 0;
        count = 0;

        printf("Enter integer numbers 'a' and 'b' for division a/b: ");
        scanf("%d %d", &a, &b);

        if (b == 0) {
                printf("Division by zero is not allowed!");
        		printf("\n");
        		return 0;
        }		
        while (1) {
                results = a - b;
                count++;
                if (b < a)
                        break;
        }
        printf("Division result is %d\n", count);
        return 0;
