    C++ Calculator

    I decided to make a math calculator because the math courses at my college had some geometry (Yes, this calculator also has geometry in it) in them.
    Of course, this saves so much time.
    I'm planning on adding formulas for more 3-d shapes soon.

    I'm not sure if this will work for you windows users since I programmed this with a mac.



    Souce code:

    /* C++ Calculator made
    by Hyperion */

    #include <iostream>
    using namespace std;

    int main ()

    {
    cout << "This calculator was programmed by Hyperion with c++.";
    cout << "\nPlease do not redistribute the program without the authorized";
    cout << "\nconsent of the programmer!";

    int a, j;
    double b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, k, l, m, n, o, p, q;

    cout << "\nWelcome!!!\n";

    do
    {

    cout << "\nWould you like basic arithmetic calculator or geometry calculator?\n";
    cout << "\n(Basic Arithmetic = 1 | Geometry = 5):";

    cin >> a;

    if (a == 1)
    {

    cout << "\nWould you like to add, subtract, multiply, or divide?";
    cout << "\n(Add = 1 | Subtract = 2 | Multiply = 3 | Divide = 4):";

    cin >> a;

    if (a == 1)
    {
    cout << "Addition it is. Please enter your first number:";
    cin >> b;
    cout << "\nPlease enter a number to add with:";
    cin >> c;
    cout << "\nYour number is\n";
    cout << b + c;
    }

    if (a == 2)
    {
    cout << "Subtraction it is. Please enter a number:";
    cin >> d;
    cout << "Please enter a number to subtract with:";
    cin >> e;
    cout << "\nYour number is\n";
    cout << d - e;
    }

    if (a == 3)
    {
    cout << "Multiply it is. Please enter a number:";
    cin >> f;
    cout << "\nPlease enter a number to multiply with:\n";
    cin >> g;
    cout << "Your number is\n";
    cout << f * g;
    }

    if (a == 4)
    {
    cout << "Divide it is. Please enter a number:";
    cin >>h;
    cout << "Please enter a number to divide with:";
    cin >> i;
    cout << "\nYour number is\n";
    cout << h / i;
    }

    if (a > 4)
    {
    cout << "Program error!!!";
    }

    if (a < 1)
    {
    cout << "Program error!!!";
    }
    cout << "\nThanks for using the C++ Calculator!\n";
    }

    if (a == 5)
    {
    double r, s, t, u;

    cout << "\nWhat shape are you trying to find the area/volume of?\n";
    cout << "(Square = 1 | Triangle = 2 | Circle = 3 | Rectangle = 4 | Sphere = 5):";
    cin >> j;
    if (j == 1)
    {
    cout << "\nPlease enter the side length of the square:";
    cin >> k;
    cout << "\nThe area of the sqare is\n";
    cout << k * k;
    }

    if (j == 2)
    {
    cout << "\nPlease enter the base of the triangle:";
    cin >> l;
    cout << "\nPlease enter the height of the triangle:";
    cin >> m;
    n = l * m * .5;
    cout << "\nThe area of the triangle is\n";
    cout << n;
    }

    if (j == 3)
    {
    cout << "\nPlease enter the radius of the circle:";
    cin >> o;
    p = o * o;
    q = p * 3.14;
    cout << "\nThe area of the circle is\n";
    cout << q;
    }

    if (j == 4)
    {
    cout << "\nPlease enter the the width of the rectangle:";
    cin >> r;
    cout << "\nPlease enter the length of the rectange:";
    cin >> s;
    cout << "\nThe area if the rectangle is\n";
    cout << r * s;
    }

    if (j == 5)
    {
    cout << "\nPlease enter the radius of the sphere:";
    cin >> t;
    u = 1.33333333 * 3.14 * t * t * t;
    cout << "\nThe voluma of the sphere is\n";
    cout << u;
    }
    cout << "\nThanks for using the C++ Calculator!";
    }

    } while (a != 0);
    return 0;
    }

    Couldn't you have compiled it into a .exe or a Windows Compatible Format!

    and indent your code so it is easier to read.
    try to use as less variables as possible...

    there also is a C++ section on mpgh

    Yeah... I dunno how to do that.

    I did lay out the source code for you all so you can just copy and paste the source onto your compiler.

    Ahh, I didn't get to that lesson yet.

    And it's the forum that won't show the indentations.

    You should be able to wrap code tags around it...

    Code:
    #include <cstdio>

        cout << "Functions are defined as follows: 1 - Add. 2 - Sub. 3 - Mult.";
        cout << " and 4 - Div." << endl;
        cout << "Please enter the function you desire by number." << endl;
        
        
        
        int choice;
        cout << "Enter 1, 2, 3, or 4:";

        //declare answer
        cout << "Answer is:";
        cout << answer4 << endl;

        default:
        cout << "None of the four operations were chosen." << endl;
        
        }
        
    cout << "Thank you for using my quad operation calculator." << endl;
        
    system("PAUSE");
    
    return 0;
    
    }
    There's my first calculator. /
    I used a switch method in this one.
    It's not hard at all, you just state cases.
    It saves a lot of time as opposed to writing if statement after if statement.
