Ooh. So like using an if statement

I mean, what would for (a; b; c) {} look like if it was written via while or goto instead?

As @QNeko said, rand() function is not good enough, try std::random: http://ix.io/2Vik

Goto is not a good practice. I was told that a lot

And thanks a lot :)

Or that the rand function is pure trash which may be the truth of the situation

Month isn't incremented

You keep increasing x but x is not used in the loop condition

Month is used rather,

(Also you have an unconditional return inside the loop, so… the loop behaves pretty much like if (month >= 0) {…; return 0;})

Yeah that's really good

That's not good, that's pointless in this situation

Really?

Run the code in your mind, statement by statement, actually executing every iteration of the loop

(Also you have an unconditional return inside the loop, so… the loop behaves pretty much like if (month >= 0) {…; return 0;})

For loops are a bit confusing

if the user has entered month < 0, the loop isn't done

if month >= 0, one iteration is done, which includes a return, which terminates the whole program since it's in main

if month >= 0, one iteration is done, which includes a return, which terminates the whole program since it's in main

Or basically after the first iteration which is 0 it basically terminates the whole code?

Not after, but inside — the return 0 does

return exits the current function and returns to the place after where it was called (and also sending a value to it if needed) — and since it's main, it also exits the program

Okay? So using a while statement will help me avoid that

I was talking about "while" as a more straightforward and structured way of understanding what "for" is doing

just for you to be able to "compile and run" the code in your brain, statement by statement

Thirdly my whole program is all messed up

You made me realise I need to study control flow hard. Thanks. I'll correct it after reading about it properly. For now I'm gonna use a switch statement to do it

There's only a small set of control flow constructs in C, but yes, those are absolutely necessary

if/else, goto, switch/case/default, while, for, do/while, continue, break, return, function calls

#include <iostream> using namespace std; int main() { int year; int month; int perYear=12; double yearIn_decimal; cout<<"Enter your age in years"<<"\n"; cin>>year; cout<<"Enter how many months it's been since your date of birth"<<"\n"; cin>>month; for(int x=0;month>=0;x++) { if(x=0){ cout<<"Your total age is"<<"\n"<<year<<endl; } else if(x>0) { yearIn_decimal=year+month/12; cout<<"Your age in precision is"<<"\n"<<yearIn_decimal<<endl; } return 0; } }

> int year; > int month; why?

I want to make a program that calculates the age like 37.75 years old

Param is a course instructor of c++ programming and currently he is teaching conversions to his students. He started with the basic programs and now he want to introduce some complex problems. Before starting the complex problems, he wants to start with high difficulty level problem, such as: counting the digits of a number. Help Mr. param to write a program which will accept one integer argument and returns count of digits of that argument using class to basic conversion.
