Ok, great. The problem is I only know how to get input with cin. So I wouldn't have to make a lot of variables, or? How do I know how many variables to make?

What if I don't need the calculator to perform the correct order of operations, for example:

5-3*5
=10

It just reads from left to right, but the amount of operators and operands is unknown. So...

Ok, thanks to you both. I'll work out a way to do it with the Shunting-yard algorithm and come back if I have any problems.

Thanks, that looks like a good way of doing it, but probably a little more advanced than what I need. Theres no other way to adjust for multiple operators and operands?

Ok I got it working via a swtich that does this:

std::cin>> op1 >> opr >> op2;

switch(opr){

case '+':
std::cout << op1+op2 << "\n";
break;

doh *facepalm*

Thanks

I'm trying to make a simple calculator, but it has to receive input like this:

operand-operator-operand

i.e.

6*5
76+2
670/10

I've got to take an exam in a few days, and I've been studying exams from other years and theres one that is giving me a little trouble. I have an idea about how to write the code, but I think there...
