here's my program..........
p.s.-leave alone the initial few lines, they're just an intro, meant for my teacher..........

Since you're using non-standard headers, I think most people will have a hard time running your code. And without proper indentation, they'll have a hard time reading it.

To see if I'm understanding the code correctly, I'll repost part of it with comments:
C++ Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
  1.  // don't know what the loop conditions are for...
  2. for(j=360;j>=0;j=j-5) 
  3. {
  4.   for(i=450;i>=0;i=i-5)
  5.   {
  6.     {
  7.       setcolor(4);
  8.       setbkcolor(0);
  9.       delay(50); // does this sleep for 50ms?
  10.       pieslice(290,250,i,i--,100); // draw second hand
  11.       setfillstyle(0,0);
  12.       floodfill(290,250,0);
  13.       circle(290,250,100);
  14.       {
  15.         delay(300); // sleep again?
  16.         pieslice(290,250,j,j--,50); // draw minute hand
  17.       }
  18.     }
  19.   }
  20. }
The problem is that you'll draw the minute hand every time you draw the second hand. You need to move the innermost block into the outer for loop (after the inner loop), then possibly readjust your loop conditions. Pseudo-code:
C++ Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
  1. for(/* ... */)
  2. {
  3.   for( /* ... */ )
  4.   {
  5.     /* whatever to draw second hand goes here */
  6.   }
  7.   /* whatever to draw minute hand goes here */
  8. }
That way the minute hand only gets updated when the second hand has gone all the way around. For the hour hand, do something similar with yet another loop encompassing these.

hey thnx for tryin to help.............cant thnk u enuff
n here are the answers to ur queries......
// don't know what the loop conditions are for...(this one's for the pieslice function....scroll down n u'll c it rite after the commands for the clock's body.....this is solely to change the values so as to make the minute hand move)
c Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
  1. for(j=360;j>=0;j=j-5) 
  2. {
  3.   for(i=450;i>=0;i=i-5)
  4.   {
  5.     {
  6.       setcolor(4);
  7.       setbkcolor(0);
  8.       delay(50); // does this sleep for 50ms?(yeah......it does)
  9.       pieslice(290,250,i,i--,100); // draw second hand
  10.       setfillstyle(0,0);
  11.       floodfill(290,250,0);
  12.       circle(290,250,100);
  13.       {
  14.         delay(300); // sleep again?(this is to maintain a time gap between the second n minute hands)
  15.         pieslice(290,250,j,j--,50); // draw minute hand
  16.       }
  17.     }
  18.   }
  19. }

Indent your code and use [code] tags when you post, it'll make everyone happier. And it'll show you how what you posted and what I posted are different.

Kanika, please use code tags. Your code is unreadable without indentation. It's been mentioned three times in this thread already. Some comments in the code to describe what sections do would be nice as well. And since it's currently 2:00 AM here, I'll look at it when I get up in the morning.

Indentation is just using tabs or spaces to mark where blocks start and end. Look at the difference (btw, there's some comments I added too):

  1. #include<iostream.h>
  2. #include<graphics.h>

  6. {
  7.   int gd=DETECT,gm,i,j,x,a,b,c,d,e,f;

Now, could you restate the prbblems you currently have? I can't run your program because of the headers you're using, but I'll try to help out again...

[edit:] Ok, I just noticed you didn't even put the code tags on your last post. Before I even consider helping you again, you need to learn to use them. It's really easy. When you post your code, you put [code] before it and [/code] after it. That will preserve the indentation when you copy your source and paste it in the post window. Using them is part of the rules of the forum, so you'd better start using them.
