ok,ok, here is what i have been working on.....
first thing,i have done an if statement. After the else i want to do another if statement but i don't want this if statement to happen under the else section. How do i seperate it so it is not part of the else line?
second thing, i have added 'system("pause") and i want it to be on a new line than my cout << ""; when i put '\n' it doesn't work, why not?
First, name your post something relevant. All the 'noob's are getting annoying to read.
Anyway, as for if, else's I'm not totally clear on what you're asking. Regardless:
Anyway, as for if, else's I'm not totally clear on what you're asking. Regardless:
int x = 1;if (x==1){ // the code goes here}else { // the code does not go here}if(x==5) { // this is seperate from the above if/else match}
try this

if(//case)
{
//whatever you want to go here
};
system("PAUSE");
return(0);

when you don't put { and } after if or else only the next line is part of the if or else statement like this:
if you want to execute more than one line in an if/else statement you do like this:
this is also true for do/while, for, and any other control statement
hope that helps !

if(i == 2) cout << "this is printed only if i == 2" << endl;else cout << this is printed only if i != 2" << endl;// whatever you put after this will be executed outisde of the if/else statementcout << "This line is always printed" << endl;if you want to execute more than one line in an if/else statement you do like this:
if(i == 2){ cout << "this is printed"; cout << "only if i == 2" << endl;}else cout << "this is printed only if i != 2" << endl;cout << "this is always printed" << endl;this is also true for do/while, for, and any other control statement

This code here is modified for you:
Here is an example of what you are trying to achieve with explainations:
Just use the 'endl' in the first code I posted above... not really much to explain. 'endl' = "endline"
#include <iostream>#include <ostream>#include <istream>#include <stdlib.H>using std::cin;using std::cout;int main (){ int x=5; int i; cout << "enter the number five"; cin >> i; if (i==x) cout << "well done!" << endl; //*CHANGED* system("PAUSE"); //*CHANGED* else { cout << "i said type five dumbass" << endl; //*CHANGED* system("PAUSE"); } return(0);}Quote:first thing,i have done an if statement.

Hmm, that game wasn't very hard at all. I managed to beat it in only 30 hours!

Good lord, someone asks a question on one of the most basic parts of the C syntax and gets two responses that are not only wrong, but wouldn't even compile??
