#include <iostream>using namespace std;int SquareTotal(int toSquare);int main(){ int toSquare; cout<<"this program will square from 1 to the number you have entered.\n"<<endl; cout<<"please enter a number: "; cin>>toSquare; if(toSquare <=0) { cout<<"please enter a non negative, non zero number."<<endl; cout<<"number: "; cin>>toSquare; } cout<<"the number you have entered is: "<<toSquare<<endl; SquareTotal(toSquare); cout<<"the total is: "<<toSquare<<endl; return 0;}int SquareTotal(int toSquare){ int total=0; for (int counter =1;counter<=toSquare;counter++) { total +=counter*counter; } return total;}quote:please enter a number: 5
the number you have entered is: 5
the total is: 5
toSquare is 5
you print out toSquare
it prints 5
whats the problem?

*cough homework cough*
Hah, a homework level question would be: A user will input a positive real number greater than or equal to 1, and a period which is greater than 0 and less than (positiveRealNumber - 1). Your program will calculate the square root of all values between from 1 to the positive real number INCLUSIVE, increasing by the period each iteration.
The catcher. Your program must run in at worst O(n log n ) time. Where n is (positiveRealNumber - 1)/period. Fun problem! =)
No non-user-defined functions (Except for non-formatted output) are allowed. In other words, calculate the square roots yourself.
So, if the user input 5.5 as the positiveRealNumber and 0.5 as the period.. you would calculate 1^(.5) + 1.5^(.5) + 2.0^(.5) + 3.0^(.5) ... + 5.5^(.5) and sum the results using a complexity not worse than O(n log n) -> n = 9

Your problem was you weren''t using the result.
now you''ve gone and given them the answer when all they needed to do was just look at the code and read it properly. I''d pointed out the problem already but gave them room to work it out for themselves.
nother crit, nuttin personal but..
please POST your question as well, don''t just say help with C++.. peeves me having to go in here to see what the subject is..
if it is a question I know little to nothing about I won''t be wasting my time and yours.
I fseek, therefore I fam.

Yeah taking a few seconds to click on the subject and read the first line of the post is a real drag.
