programming problem

[beck322]

Hello everybody i need help with a problem please!!!
I am new to this and just trying to figure my Homework out....
Ok here it comes:

Write a program that asks the user to enter an integer between 1 and 10, sums the squares of the integers from 1 to the number entered, and display the sum. Thus, if the user enters 5, the program should display the following:

The sum of the squares of the integers from 1 to 5 is 55.


I am sure for you guys it is not an issue i am just starting my c++ class .....

please help me and give me some hints

Thx

Steps:

1. Ask the user for input between 1 and 10.
2. Square each number from 1 to inputted number and add it to a holding variable.
3. Display the sum.

Which part are you having problems with?

Ok i got that but i am not familiar with all the vocabulary yet
that is my problem:
1. cout<<" Enter integer between 1 and 10:"<< endl;
cin >>integer>>;

please be patient with me i am new to this

You are on the right track: (I fixed an error in your code)

cout<<" Enter integer between 1 and 10:"<< endl;
    cin >>integer;

Keep going!

like that?
int main()
{
int i;

cout<< endl;
cout<<" Enter integer between 1 and 10 : "<< endl;
cin>>i

return 0;
}

and how do i square all the integers?

english is my second language too i am an international student from germany...

ok i just forgot to put a semicolon after the i now it runs but i dont know how to
square the inputs

In order to get i squared, you can use i*i.

The best way to calculate this value would be to use a for... loop, like so:

int sum = 0;
for (int j = 1; j <= i; j++) { // i is the user-defined variable
   //Calculation to add i*i to sum here
}

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;


int main()
{
int total = 0,
i,
number;

cout<< " Give me a number between one and 10:";
cin>> number;
for( i= 1; i <=number; ++i)
{
total=total+i*i ;

}

cout << "The sum of squares of the integers from 1 to " << number <<"is :"<< total<< endl;


return 0;
}

I figured it out thank you!!!!!!

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;


int main()// While loop same Exercise
{
int count=1,
number,
total=0;

cout<< " Give me a number between one and 10:";
cin>> number;
cout<< endl;
while(count <= number)

{
total +=count * count;
++count;

}

cout << "The sum of squares of the integers from 1 to " << number <<"is :"<< total<< endl;


return 0;
}

Or like that!!!!!

good!

do you need to perform checks on your input data? if so that will be another few steps . . . for instance, do you need to check to make sure that the input is not greater than 10?

(and your english is very good.)
