To get A++ is Easy

#include <iostream>

//header file for cin and cout

#include <string>

// header file for character

#include <conio>

//header file for getch , to retain

int main ( )

// It tells where the program begins

// opening braces
char answer;

// declaration

cout<<do you have problem with c++<<endl;

cin>> answer;

// input from user

if (answer==yes)

// conditional statement

cout<<this is the right solution to you<<endl; // it will

display this
else
// if the 1st condition fails then it will
execute this statement
cout<<keep it aside<<endl;

// to retain the result

// closing braces

Caution!
Whenever you see double slash like this // means a comment or
an explanatory statement for you to understand, it does not
have an effect of the execution of the program

Prefatory
I purposefully compose this solutions to our dear colleagues
problem from other department, who petrified of C++ course,
going by the last test most of us already forecast our result in
programing and found likely to be below average. This
minuscule pages will give you an understanding, a good grade in
programming course. I surprise why our colleagues from other
department afraid of programming, it is too simple and very
elementary at this stage, may be the tricky is most of us dearth
the practical aspect or terrified of computer operating.
Moreover, most of us find this course as invaluable to our
studies especially EMT and Mathematics students. I learnt that
you misunderstood the course as a result of deficiency of
familiarity in application of programming into your major.
Nowadays, computer has become part of human being
activities, no organisation, academic or any field can do without
computer, therefore possession of computer knowledge can
helps us in one way or the other in future time.
However, it wasnt too late for you to earn a very good grade in
Jungle++, at least you have an outstanding time toward
examination for you to earn a good grade at least a A or B+
in programming problem.
C++ does not required a much computational experience nor
mastering an equations, it only need understanding of the
concept behind the scene. So now its time to blast the secret
behind the scene, thats why, I intent to summarised the basic
area covered from the courseware and solve an assignments,
lab exercise and test questions, so that it will support us in our
study toward imminent examination by the grace of Allah.
Page 3 of 17

Please do not depend on this material purposely for an

examination, this passage is based on practical approach, you
must read the theoretical aspect for you to understand this
clearly. And for those who are interested in more practical
aspect, we may likely hold general revision class on
programming, which scheduled as follows, firstly, practical
aspect and secondly, resolve indistinct theory then answer
some skeptical question relevant to an examination, on a day
before C++ examination.
Please do test run the programs in your computer to ensure it
credibility, because I drafted them off head, due to time factor I
cannot able to summarize the whole courseware, I will only solve
the exercises and test questions.
Lastly, I am not blameable for any offence you bump into by
wronging with this texts either by jotting, recording, snapping,
tearing or whatever mean of transmission you use to constrain
malpractice.

repetitions.

Q&A for
Q 1 a.

Test 2

Instruction: Answer one question only.

why main ( ) function is required in C++ program?

It tells where the program begins. The identifier main is the name of a
function. Every C++ program must have one and only one main function.
The required parentheses that follow the word main indicate that it is a
function.
b. write a program that will receive an integer number n and return the
factorial of that number to your program. The program should check if n
is 0 then it prints 1.
#include <iostream>
#include <conio>
int main()
{
int n, factor=1;
cout << "Enter an interger number: "; cin >> n;
if(n==0)
cout<<"1"<<endl;
else;
for (int j=n; j>0; j- -)
factor * = j;
cout << "Factorial is " << factor << endl;
getch ();
}
Q 2. a.

state the difference between while and do..while loop.

While: The while, is a looping statement that controls the execution of a

series of other statements. Looping statements cause parts of a program
to execute repeatedly, as long as a certain condition is being met. Below
is the format of while.
while (test expression)
{block of one or more C++ statements; }
The parentheses around test expression are required. As long as test
expression is True (nonzero), the block of one or more C++ statements

Page 16 of 17

executes repeatedly until test expression becomes False (evaluates to

zero).
do.. while: The dowhile statement controls the dowhile loop, This
ensures the body of the loop executes at least once. The do-while tests
for a positive relational test; as long as the test is True, the body of the
loop continues to execute. The syntax for the dowhile statement is :
do
{ block of one or more C++ statements; }
while (condition)
Where condition is an integral expression and statement is any
executable statement. It repeatedly executes the statement and then
evaluates the condition until that condition evaluates to false.
2.
b. Write a weather-calculator program that asks for a list of the
previous 10 days temperatures, computes the average, and prints
the results. You have to compute the total as the input occurs, then
divide that total by 10 to find the average. Use a while loop for the
10 repetitions.
