More like this -

double half(double number)
{
    return (number / 2);
}

[fg109]

double half(double number);

I'm just curious. How long have you been doing c++ programming? I am in my 2nd semester and I don't feel like I am ever going to catch on.

Started around the 20th of January. Had C for 2 months, then c++ for about the same (course only ended 2 weeks ago). You have to study and program at home as well, dont forget that. The internet is a very powerful resources and has basically all you need, so use it to your advantage. Find small projects to work on, like these for example, are quite fantastic for beginners -

Try your hardest, think outside the box, if you're completely stuck, use google to find your answer. Goodluck^^
