Subtraction in a while loop -
i new programing game. , when run problems can fix them quite little help. on has me stumped.
i attempting build basic calculator of sorts, , i'm using while loops it.
addition simple because had type: sum +=
however subtraction, multiplication, , division not easy. wondering if point me in right direction said before stumped.
here part of code reference:
x = 0; while(x < y){ if(operator == 1){ /*addition portion*/ x += 1; printf("please enter number %d: ", x); scanf("%lf", &a); sum += a;} else if(operator == 2){ /*subtracion portion*/ x += 1; printf("please enter number %d: ", x); scanf("%lf", &b); sum += b - sum;}} /*not working, fix, research*/ printf("\nthe sum of entered numbers = %.f\n\n", sum);
you can use other operators -=
, *=
, , /=
subtraction, multiplication, , division, respectively. example:
sum -= c; // equivalent "sum = sum - c;" sum *= d; // equivalent "sum = sum * d;" sum /= e; // equivalent "sum = sum / e;"
(by way, can find big tables of operators in c , c++ in various places. might little overwhelming @ moment, they'll great reference later on!)
