a = 2;
b = 3;
a = (a + b) % 2;
b = b – a;
a = a * b;
cout << a << "\n" << b ;
What is the output for a and b?
------------------------------------------------------------
Why is a 3 and b 2 is this one
a = 2;
b = 3;
a = a + b;
b = a – b;
a = a – b;
cout <<a<<endl;
cout << b;
can anyone offer some assitance in explainning?
>What is the output for a and b?
Run it and see.
>Why is a 3 and b 2 is this one
2 + 3 = 5
5 - 3 = 2
5 - 2 = 3
yea i ran it but got an error so i dont know
is the answer 3, 2?
>yea i ran it but got an error so i dont know
You probably got the same error I did. It's hard to see, but – and - are not the same character. If that doesn't fix your problem, post the errors you're getting and all of the code.
i got a=3 and b=2 is that right?
You have two separate pieces of code. Which one are you asking about?
This one?
a = (a + b) % 2;
b = b – a;
a = a * b;or this one?
a = a + b;
b = a – b;
a = a – b;And do you still have the error?
the first one
I get a = 2 and b = 2.
hmmm...can you explain how you got that?
By that do you mean:
1) Your program doesn't run still?
2) Your program runs and gives you a different answer?
3) Your program and mine give the same results, but the answer seems wrong to you?
If it's 1 or 2, please post your full program.
