Post subject:  Help. Exiting program?
Hey i just made this program.
i want if so that when you hit 0 it exits the program. can someone help me. thanks:)



var pick: real:=0
var number: real
loop
put "Please enter the number that you wish to expariment with"
get pick

put "Select your choice of calculation:"
put "1) Square of the number"
put "2) Square root of the number"
put "3) Reciprocal of the number"
put "4) Cube of the number"
put "5) Cube root of the number"
put "0) Exit program"
get number

if number = 1 then
put pick*pick
end if

if number = 2 then
put sqrt(pick)
end if

if number = 3 then
put pick/(pick*pick)
end if

if number = 4 then
put pick*pick*pick
end if

if number = 5 then
%put pick^1/3
end if

if number = 0 then
exit
end if
end loop

Enclose the whole program in a conditional loop which will exit if 0 is entered anywhere...

Do you want the program to exit if the first input is 0?

[syntax]
Ask for first number

if number != 0

Display options

else choice = 0

then you if else conditions will automatically exit the program for you.

The second but i think i got it...



var pick: real:=0
var number: real
var chars : array char of boolean
put "Please enter the number that you wish to expariment with"
get pick
loop
put "Select your choice of calculation:"
put "1) Square of the number"
put "2) Square root of the number"
put "3) Reciprocal of the number"
put "4) Cube of the number"
put "5) Cube root of the number"
put "0) Exit program"
get number

if number = 1 then
put pick*pick
end if

if number = 2 then
put sqrt(pick)
end if

if number = 3 then
put pick/(pick*pick)
end if

if number = 4 then
put pick*pick*pick
end if

if number = 5 then
put pick**(1/3)
end if

if chars ('0') then
exit
end if
end loop

I want the menu to show so they see the option that 0 is to exit. then when they hit 0 then enter it exits the program?

Simply throwing a question mark at the end of a sentence does not necessary turn it a question.

okaaay...How come when i click numbers 1-4 it closes the program wehn i put if chars ('0') then exit?

Your program comes to the end via some other path.

The logic is alright.
I have forgotten the turing syntax and there is an extra end loop at the end....

I was editing that but then you replied Rolling Eyes

yeah. okay but heres the thing. i want it to be so that the second input must be 0 for the program to exit













var pick : real := 0
var number : real
var chars : array char of boolean
put "Please enter the number that you wish to expariment with (0 is to exit)"
get pick
loop
if pick = 0 then
put "Select your choice of calculation:"
put "1) Square of the number"
put "2) Square root of the number"
put "3) Reciprocal of the number"
put "4) Cube of the number"
put "5) Cube root of the number"
put "0) Exit program"
get number
end if

if pick = 0 then
number := 0
end if

if number = 1 then
put pick * pick
end if

if number = 2 then
put sqrt (pick)
end if

if number = 3 then
put pick / (pick * pick)
end if

if number = 4 then
put pick * pick * pick
end if

if number = 5 then
put pick ** (1 / 3)
end if

if number = 0 then
exit
end if

What is wrong here? Follow through the code and think about what it is doing.

You still don't understand...
Why don't you try what I indicated in the last comment? Or maybe what RandomLetters suggested. (They are both the same thing)

You're making things more complicated then they need to be.
If what you used for the other options worked, why not keep using the same thing?

That is not what we do, and it would defeat the point of the assignment, don't you think?

They did infact give you the answer. You just never read it expecting them to SOURCE it for you.

Get a hold of yourself. They were helping. You just aren't taking the time to think it through yourself. If an input is 0 then have the program exit, else if the input is not 0, allow it to continue. It's not that hard.
