    Translation: Can I cheat off of you, because I have a seven page thread that has accomplished nothing.


    Quzah.
    Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment.

    But this is an easy math task, there's no need for loops and thus no good reason to use them...

    It would be *bad programming practice* to use unnecessary constructs... and especially just to get a good grade.

    quzah, why are you so ignorant? and why are you always on this site? if you're on a site 24/7 you have no life. GET A LIFE, and stop accusing me of cheating. Plus if you're gonna say the same old crap 1000 times, then keep it to urself. SMFH

    common tator was the only helpful guy, the other one kept saying oh well learn it for your self, do it yourself, do this, learn this, learn that. dude just don't post anything if you're not gonna say anything useful. That's my argument.

    FYI ... sport... Quzah is an accomplished programmer, one of the first 10 members on this board and is well respected by most everyone here.

    He probably repeats stuff over and over for the same reason I do ... because you aren't listening. We don't spend our time working on these things just so you can blow them off and ignore our advice. We volunteer here and the *only* motivation is to help people... You're other thread ran 85 messages and you were no closer to a solution than in the first message... Given your obvious vile temper, give me one good reason why any of us should continue helping you.

    I also seem to be in this class, and I actually recall the teacher saying if you can do it all with if statements, by all means do it. He just said there was an easier way to do it with a loop, but I'm having my own troubles with that.

    Y'know what... Quazah is a far better teacher than I .. "Look this up", "study that", etc. is EXACTLY what it takes to be a good programmer. I figure that about 1/3 of a programmer's time is spent simply "looking stuff up"... so he was giving you the exact information you needed.

    This is a forum to help people with source code problems... we are neither a candy store nor a babysitting service.

    he did say that? That would literally just save my life. Can you confirm that again Shukiren.

    Can we not use either one of them, lets say for the second program, can I just use printf and scanf?

    I'm still trying to figure out that "easier way." The if statement seems like its works better in this case

    Can't really confirm it as the professor said he won't be here until Tuesday, but I specifically remember him saying that in class.

    Also, idk since I'm new to programming but I don't think you can solve any of the problems with just printf and scanf statements, correct me if I'm wrong.

    English is my first language, I'm just not any good at typing\writing it, I can read and speak it just fine.
