i am new to c++ and m having a problem in making a scientific calculator plsss help me i dun know how to make the power function work
here is my program
m working in visual studio 2005 ,c++
getiing this error
error C2064: term does not evaluate to a function taking 2 arguments

}

a^b is not a to the b power, it is (a XOR b)

int power = pow(a,b); will work (of your functions and variables and the cmath functions many have the same name which can be confusing at best

P.S. Please use code tags //your code here next time to make it easier to read and maintain the formatting

thanx a lot :)

Please change the variable names inside the functions that have the same name as the function name.
Like I am copying your code here and showing the problem.
Inside your sum() function you have a viriable sum.
same in product and other functions also.
#
void sum()
#
{
#
int a,b,sum; needs to be changed
#
cout<<

Here you have the solution.
Sorry for the previous reply. I didn't read the question correctly for the first time.
Also if you post something here you cannot even edit or delete.

i got it all ryt :)
thnx a lot 4 da help :)

Plzzzzzz.... Help me
I need coding for scientific calculator consist of sin, cos, factorial, log, tan and division
