Isolating numbers in a for statement

[Geddes]

I'm making a program which factors a number which is given by a user. I've gotten a way to output the factors using a for statement, but i would like, if possible to isolate the numbers which are given as factors so i can use them at a later time. I'm a C++ noob, so if there is a simple answer to this, don't be afraid to point it out =)

#include <iostream.h>
#include <math.h>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
    cout<<endl;
    cout<<"     Factor Application - Finding factors of #s"<<endl;
    cout<<"     ------------------------------------------"<<endl;
    cout<<endl;
    cout<<endl;
    cout<<"Y = AX^2 + BX + C"<<endl;
    cout<<endl;
    cout<<endl;
    cout<<"Insert the B value: ";
    int bvar;
    cin>>bvar;
    cout<<endl;
    cout<<"Factors: ";
    if(bvar > 1)
    {
    for (int i = 10000; i > 0; i--)
    {
    int xvar;
    xvar = ((bvar/i)*(i));
    if ( xvar == bvar)
    {
    int xyvar[100];
    xyvar[100] = (bvar/i);
    cout<<xyvar[100]<<" ";
    }
    }
    cout<<endl;
    }
    cout<<endl;

    system("PAUSE");
    return (0);
    
}

store them in a vector or array?

array preferably..i don't even know how vectors work.
if a vector is more efficient or better in some way i'm up to learning it though.

thanks for the quick response.

if you are working in C++ vectors are preferable in that it will expand dynamically as you add elements - it is also easy to use. Have a look at

I read that tutorial, and i think i understand what vectors do; however, i'm still not sure how to apply them to my code. Do I modify the if statement so that my xyvar variable is a vector? Even then, how do I access these numbers later?

thanks

Actually I think i'm beginning to understand a bit better. If i declare a vector and use the push back command to add every number produced by the factoring code, I should be able to simply access the number later using: vectorname[a number]. Can you correct me if i am wrong?

Nope - you've got the basic idea.

Go ahead and try that to see if it will work for you - come back with any questions.
