Chapter 1, Problem 1P

Using your text editor, enter (that is, type in) the C++ program shown in Display 1.8. Be certain to type the first line exactly as shown in Display 1.8. In particular, be sure that the first line begins at the left-hand end of the line with no space before or after the # symbol. Compile and run the program. If the compiler gives you an error message, correct the program and recompile the program. Do this until the compiler gives no error messages. Then run your program.

Program Plan Intro

Creation of main method to compute a value and testing the formula

Program Plan:

• Define the main method.
  • Declare variables for count of pods, count of peas and total peas.
  • Display message to get count of pods.
  • Store value for count of pods.
  • Display message to get count of peas in pods.
  • Store value for count of peas in pods.
  • Compute value for total peas by multiplying both input values.
  • Display the resultant value of total peas.

Program Description Answer

Program Description:

The following java program describes about creation of main method to implement a formula for computing value for total peas.

Explanation of Solution

Program:

//Include library

#include<iostream>

//Use namespace

using namespace std;

//Define main method

int main()

{

//Declare variables

int numberOfPods, peasPerPod, totalPeas;

//Define message

cout<<"Press return after entering a number"<<endl;

//Define message

cout<<"Enter the number of pods"<<endl;

//Store value

cin>>numberOfPods;

//Define message

cout<<"Enter the number of peas in a pod"<<endl;

//Store value

cin>>peasPerPod;

//Compute value

totalPeas = numberOfPods*peasPerPod;

//Define message

cout<<"If you have ";

//Define message

cout<<numberOfPods;

//Define message

cout<<" Peas pods"<<endl;

//Define message

cout<<"and ";

//Display message

cout<<peasPerPod;

//Define message

cout<<" Peas in each pod, then"<<endl;

//Define message

cout<<"You have ";

//Display value

cout<<totalPeas;

//Display message

cout<<" Peas in all the pods";

//Pause console window

system("pause");

//Return

return 0;

}

Sample Output

Press return after entering a number

Enter the number of pods

10

Enter the number of peas in a pod

15

If you have 10 Peas pods

and 15 Peas in each pod, then

You have 150 Peas in all the pods
