C++ help

Now we are doing pseudocode and looping.On my assignment I believe i should do a sentinel controlled loop?
But i really don't know.It says this:
Develop an MC++ application that will determine if a department store customer has exceeded the limit on a charge account.For each customer,the following facts are available:a)Account number
b)Balance at the beginning of the month
c)Total of all items charged by this customer
d)Total of all credits applied to this customer's account this month
e)Allowed credit limit
Hint:Users should input as integers each of these facts,calculate the new balance (=beginning balance + charges - credits), display the new balance and determine if the new balance exceeds the customer's credit limit.For those customers whose credit limit is exceeded,the program should display the message,"Credit limit exceeded"....the credit limit is 400
#include "stdafx.h"
#using <mscorlib.dll>
using namespace system

Re: C++ help

Hmm. Something like this?

(Toggle Plain Text)

credit_limit = 400;
credit_total = 0;
balance = 0;
charges_remaining = something;
while ( charges_remaining )
{
   charges = get_charges();
   credits = get_credits();
   balance = balance + charges - credit
   if ( credit_total > credit_limit )
   {
      error_message();
   }
   charges = charges - 1;
}
