All you have to do is use a float (or double) for the variable.
Code:#include <iostream> #include <stdlib.h> using namespace std; float decimal_num; //or you can use double int main() { cout << "Enter any decimal number" << endl; cin >> decimal_num; cout << "You decimal number is " << decimal_num << endl; system("PAUSE"); return 0; }
TechWins> That's what all of them are, and I still can't get it to work. The output answer works in decimal, just not the input *I rewrote my code to test what you said*.
RoD> Already did that, this is what I did:
1] Changed <iostream> to <iostream.h>
2] Took out 'using namespace std;
Can you post the code where the problem is at?
Btw, using namespace std and iostream is fine so don't go back to iostream.h
Oh yeah, are you using casting the float to an int before you display the code? If you are then of course you're not going to see the decimal and the numbers after the decimal.
Can't. I deleted it. But, I do remember the problem was after I put the ShowMenu function to show the menu, after that, every cout, cin, and cerr had an abiligious symbol error.Originally posted by TechWins

No idea about that, sorry.But, I do remember the problem was after I put the ShowMenu function to show the menu, after that, every cout, cin, and cerr had an abiligious symbol error.
Nope, gotoxy isnt in conio.h, I did the function gotoxy():Originally posted by Quantrizi
Good point...heh. But, would you still have to include conio.o *gotoxy is in the conio header(s)*
functions.h
Code:#include <iostream> #include <conio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <windows.h> using namespace std; HANDLE hConsole = GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE); HANDLE hInput = GetStdHandle(STD_INPUT_HANDLE); // Declerations void gotoxy(int,int); void SetColor(short); // Definitions void SetColor(short Color) { SetConsoleTextAttribute(hConsole, Color); } void gotoxy(int x, int y) { COORD CursorPosition; CursorPosition.X = x; CursorPosition.Y = y; SetConsoleCursorPosition(hConsole, CursorPosition); }
what does signature stand for?
post the .exe lol not the zip i cant open .zip at school =\
Laugh
just to let you know this is only for windows, ppl who use other stuff wont be able to view your calc, kinda ironic that you dont like the ms calc and make your own which runs only under ms opeating systems heheOriginally posted by Ruski

I don't like the M$ calc. because of the minimal stuff it has. By that I mean the fact it is hard to read all of the trig. functions, it can't solve proportions, graph a line, solve a slope-intercept problem, and etc. I am currently gonna try my hardest to do this and more. Heavy production will occur after Christmas, and after my robotics regionals and such are done with.
