Starting Out: C++ (What I've Learned So Far) - BreShiE - 01-18-2013

As some of you may know/remember, I was learning C++ in College once, but now we're doing it again! This is a great thing for me, I've always wanted to learn this language and seen as though I HAVE to do it for college, there's no geting out of it for me, and I can sit down and learn the language without loosing interest and not going back to it again (like I've done with so many languages). So here I am, sharing with you one of my first programs I've made while at home, I've done a few at college, but this was a practice program to brush up on the code, to try and make it stick! Enjoy!

The code (big picture):

Spoiler:

I was cout'ing answer for a test. That's no longer there.

Typecast your variables. Looks neater, prevents errors/exploits.

What do you mean by "typecast"?

Thanks Phytrix. I don't really see any problems with my code, especially as I'm just starting out with C++ really.

Like this.
I have been coding C++ for about a year. I stopped for 3 months, and am just starting again for Malware Development and Game Development.

Code:
double  d;
long    l;
int     i;
 
if (d > i)      d = i;
if (i > l)      l = i;
if (d == l)     d *= 2;

The hell is that source code, that is ugly and doesn't work at all.

What is ugly and what doesn't work at all?

I tried C++ once, but I quickly lost interest. Not a bad starting program though.

Looking good so far Smile

I'm needing to start learning C++
