Hey, I have a volume/surface area calculating program, but the problem is that my program always runs through the first possible choice instead of choosing between two. It will always do the cube/rectangle function instead of going to the square pyramid function.
Here's my code.
#include <iostream>
#include <windows.h>
using namespace std;
char choice[25];
char choice2[25];
int main(){
system("Color 06");
cout<<" **************************************\n"
" * Volume/Surface Area Calculator *\n"
" **************************************\n"
" * *\n"
" * 1: Volume *\n"
" * 2: Surface Area *\n"
" * 3: Quit *\n"
" **************************************\n\n";
cin.getline(choice,25);
if (choice == "1" || "V" || "Volume")
{
system("cls");
cout<<" **************************************\n"
" * Volume/Surface Area Calculator *\n"
" **************************************\n"
" * *\n"
" * 1: Cube/Rectangle *\n"
" * 2: Square Pyramid *\n"
" * 3: Sphere *\n"
" **************************************\n\n";
cin.getline(choice2,25);
}
if (choice2 == "1" || "C" || "R" || "rectangle" || "cube")
{
system("cls");
int length;
int width;
int height;
int volume;
cout<<" **************************************\n"
" * Volume/Surface Area Calculator *\n"
" **************************************\n"
" Enter your the length: ";
cin>>length;
cout<<endl<<" Enter your the width: ";
cin>>width;
cout<<endl<<" Enter your the height: ";
cin>>height;
volume=length*width*height;
cout<<endl<<" Volume of your object is: "<<volume;
}
if (choice2 == "2" || "S" || "P" || "pyramid" || "square")
{
system("cls");
int base;
int height;
int volume;
cout<<" **************************************\n"
" * Volume/Surface Area Calculator *\n"
" **************************************\n"
" Enter your the base length: ";
cin>>base;
cout<<endl<<" Enter your the height: ";
cin>>height;
volume=base*base*height*1/3;
cout<<endl<<" Volume of your object is: "<<volume;
}
Sleep(3000);
return 0;
}Thanks.
