Please post your code using code tags when posting on here.
Tankman (12)
How? I'm new here.

Look at the tools you can use when making/editing a post. One of these tools has an icon that looks like <> . If you highlight your code, and select this icon, it will put the code tags around it which will give line #s to each line and color certain things to make it more readable.

If you can't figure it out, look at http://www.cplusplus.com/articles/jEywvCM9/

Use the thread you already created.
Tankman (12)
I'm doing that and hitting the code button, but its not doing that.
Pindrought (305)
Is your code not highlighted? You can try manually typing [ code ] before the code and [ / code ] after the code (without spaces)

Done.
Pindrought (305)
Line 61: { should be }
Line 78: { should be }
Line 95: { should be }
Line 112: Missing }


You really should properly indent your code so that you can spot these easier like how the code tags had indented it.

I don't know how to do that though. I'm sorry. I'm really knew to doing all this.
Pindrought (305)
Basically every time you have a { you should indent once on the next line and every time you have } you should go back one indention on the next line.

if (blah)

}


Makes it a lot easier to spot brace errors ( { and } )

You'll probably want to review your logic however... Since you are comparing weight to bmi.

OMG! You sir are awesome. I really appreciate your help and your patience with me. It works until it ask me for the gender type, I can't select the gender type or type it in. Is there something I have to do to fix that?

I'm not sure what you mean. I'm able to select a gender type. The only issue i'm seeing is all the logic after you select the gender type doesn't make sense.

Hey there sir. I just want to thank you so much for help me out a lot. I unfortunately am running out of time and I have to drop this in the dropbox, even though it's not turning out the way I want it to. I really appreciate your help and your patience in this assignment. I would literally have flunk this, but you help me out tremendously along with booradley60. I thank you guys for your help.

One more thing ...

If you configure your editor to convert tabs to spaces (3 or 4 is good) then your code will look much better when posted here. This site converts tabs to 8 spaces, so that's why half of your code is off my screen (way out to the right), some of them even look like 2 tabs worth of indenting.

If you have a half decent editor with your IDE, it should do this stuff auto-magically :+)

It's also possible to use a code formatter after the fact. A-Style and llvm-format deem to be popular.

Good Luck !!
