3 New Member
hello ive just started learning c++ and im really stuck. the program doesnt seem to beable to read the if statement properly

# include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int getDaysHire(int );
int calculateCharge (int daysHire, int seasonCharge);// my two function prototypes

int main()
{
int x;
int season;
int cost;
int DaysHire;
int seasonCharge;
int days;

cout << " Enter the number of days you wish to rent a bicycle. Bearing in mind that a £25 deposit must be paid";
cout << " The maxium days allowed is 15 and if you rent over 8 days you will get a 10% discount.";

days = getDaysHire(x);// function call

cost = calculateCharge (DaysHire,seaso nCharge);


cout << "the cost is" << cost << endl; // my output statement
system("PAUSE") ;
// wait until user is ready before terminating program
// to allow the user to see the program results
return 0; // program has ended
}

int getDaysHire(int days)// function defination
{

cin >> days;// user inputs days that they want to rent a bicycal for

if (days <= 15)
cout <<" ok";
else if (days > 15)
{
cout << "read the instructions moron, ENTER DAYS LESS THAN 15";
cin >> days;

}


return days;
}

int calculateCharge (int DaysHire, int seasonCharge)
{
int cost,season,hig h,low,days;

cout <<"is it high season or low season";
cin >> season;

if (season == low && days >8)
cost =(((5+25/100)*10)*days);
else if ( season == high && days >8)
cost =(((10+25/100)*10)*days);
else if (season == low && days <8)
cost =((5+25)*days);
else if ( season == high && days <8)
cost =((10+25)*days) ;


return cost;
}

I'm trying to construct a checkbox array in a survey form where one of the choices is "No Preference" which is checked by default. If the victim chooses other than "No Preference", I'd like to uncheck

I'm a real Python NEWB and am intrigued by some of Python's features, so I'm starting to write code to do some things to see how it works. So far I really like the lists and dictionaries since I learned to love content addressability in MATLAB. I was wondering it there's a simple routine (I think I can write a recurisve routine to do this.) to scan all the elements of a list, descending to lowest level and change something. What I'd like...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
