Could someone help me with this for loop I wrote?
I've just started C++ this week, and I have an assignment where you have to create a console application that asked the user how many numbers they would like to sum together, and then loops that many times, taking in a number and adding it to the sum each time. This is what I have -
Code:
int main()
{
int repeat_amount, sum = 0, entered_number;
cout << "Enter the amount of numbers you wish to add together: ";
cin >> repeat_amount;
for (int number = 0;number == repeat_amount; number ++) {
cout << "Enter a number: ";
cin >> entered_number;
sum = sum + entered_number;
}
cout << sum;
}
The result is it doesn't allow me to enter any numbers except the first one. This is what I get when I run it -
Enter the amount of numbers you wish to add:
(then i enter a number and hit enter)
