USING LOOPS ‘for” and ‘do…while’

Have and input of some number between 1 and 10000

Check to see if it is valid input, if not ask for the number to be entered again.

Print out a factor list for the number.

 

Sample run…

	Please enter a number (1-10000) 12000             SORRY 12000 IS NOT VALID, ENTER AGAIN!
	Please enter a number (1-10000) 144   Number: 144 Factors: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 16, 18, 24, 36, 48, 71, 144 Number of factors: 15

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hints: for the bad input, use a do…while loop

            do{

                        cout<<”Please enter a number (1-10000)”<<endl;

                                    cin>>num;

                                                if (num > 10000 || num < 1) {

                                                                                                cout<<”sorry…”<<endl;

                                                                                                delay a bit then clear screen.

                                                                                               

}while (num > 10000 || num < 1);

 

 

for finding factors…

            Inside a for (x=1; x<=num; x++)

Check if division by number results in no remainder.  If it does, it is a factor.  Keep a count.

 If (num%x ==0)

 {

 count++;

 cout<<x;

}

There is a fine difference of perspective between getting involved and being committed. In ham and eggs, the chicken is involved,  but the pig is committed. John A. Price
