Hey guys im in drastic need of help. Please fine below my code for the conversion of change in dollars and cents. The program has to convert the real number into 2 ints then output how much of each denomination to give. As is the code works fine for the dollars however for some reason cents is always 0 so im not sure if there is an issue that a guru may be able to see where im going wrong.
Thanks in advance.

    return (0);
}

cents = (int) (((change - dollars)*100) + 0.5);

How about change this line to...

cents = (int) ((change*100.0) - (dollars*100));

and see what happen?

/* This function is used to calculate how many of each coin is needed */
int RepeatedlyCoins (int ¢s, int coin_worth)
{

What is the first parameter in this function definition? Never seen a variable like that.

Hey waltP for some reason that happened in the copy haha its ment to be cents.
Thanks for the tip taywin will give it a go

Nope Didnt help lol

Its all good people i foind it :-). In the main function i delacre the function "GetAmount" as an int where it needed to be a float. haha thats been driving me up the wall for over a week.

It wouldn't help. It's what you already have.

First things first. Fix these variables: int a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k;
They mean absolutely nothing and only serve to confuse anyone reading the code.

The function RepeatedlyCoins (int ¢s, int coin_worth) will return the number of coins but you never remove those coins from the the total number of cents. If you do, I don't see it.

Put some output statements in key places in the code to see if you are processing the values correctly.
