Thread: how do you make a program send data to the printer?

Code:

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>

using namespace std; //If you are just doing a simple program and only going to be
//using standard namespace, it is easier (and cleaner) to declare it globaly instead
//of usting std:: infront of every freakin thing.



string liftName; //Use string instead of char array
int Max;

int liftingPlanner (string liftName, int Max)
         {
               cout << "Lift: " <<liftName<<"\n";
               cout << "                Sets              \n";
                cout << "Day ||  1    2    3    4    5\n";
                cout << "| 1 || " <<Max*.6<< " "<<Max*.65<<" "<<Max*.7<<" "<<Max*.75<<" "<<Max*.7<<"\n";
                cout << "| 2 || " <<Max*.65<< " "<<Max*.7<<" "<<Max*.75<<" "<<Max*.8<<" "<<Max*.75<<"\n";
                cout << "| 3 || " <<Max*.7<< " "<<Max*.75<<" "<<Max*.8<<" "<<Max*.85<<" "<<Max*.8<<"\n";
                cout << "| 4 || " <<Max*.75<< " "<<Max*.8<<" "<<Max*.85<<" "<<Max*.9<<" "<<Max*.85<<"\n"; 
                cout << "| Max Day! || *Warm up before maxing* || Max Day!|\n";
                return 0;
                }
                

int main()
{     
      system ("COLOR 1F ");
      int counter = 0;
      while(counter < 10)
      {    
      cout <<"This program was created by not telling you my real name ;) \nfor BHS in October of 2005\n";
      system ("PAUSE");
      
      cout <<"Enter the name of your first lift.\n";
      getline(cin,liftName); //getline alows you to get spaces too...so for example 'bench press' can be entered
	  cout << "Enter your max:\n";
      cin >> Max;
      liftingPlanner (liftName, Max);
      counter++;
      
      return 0;
      }
      system ("PAUSE");
      return 0;
}

That 'fixes' what you posted last.
I assume the return 0 in the file loop is just to stop the loop while you are working on it...

It compiled fine but when I ran the program it exited when it got to the point where it calls liftingPlanner. I hate to say it again but, any help would be appreciated.

Ohh. Well, it exited because the program was complete.
Just put your system(“pause”); in front of your temporary ‘return 0’ in the while loop (just like you have at the end of the main function). Or delete that return 0 in the loop.
