I need some help
I am just trying to learn, I am not advanced at all, so could someone look this over and tell me what I've done wrong, and how to fix it please.
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
unsigned short int age;
cout << "Age\t";
cin >> age;
switch (age)
{
case M14:
cout << "14\n";
break;
case M15:
cout << "15\n";
}
return 0;
}

# 1 Re: I need some help
It easier to help if you state what it is you're having problems with, but on reading your code I wonder what M14 and M15 are.
If you remove the M:s it should work.
Or alternately:
#define M14 (14)
#define M15 (15)
Or
const int M14 = 14;
const int M15 = 15;

Thanks for your replies.
I wanted to be able to respond with M14 or M15 etc. This stands for M15 = male 15 and male 16. I think I will sae an age variable to int, and a sex variable to char. if I type cout << "Age:\t"; and on the line under that type cin >> age;
I want to ask two questions on one line how would I do that? I want to get input from both questions?
# 4 Re: I need some help
cout<<"please enter age and sex (m, f) "
cin >> age >> sex;
don't think that representing sex as a single char is safe enough. It's better to store it as a string.
