Could I get some direction on this code please.

[theascen]

For some reason I can not get it past 00-000 when I use:
while (ii<=9);

I'm getting closer with:
while (ii++<=9);
but it runs this: 10000-999,

This one is really close:
while (ii!=0);
but it runs to 10-000,,seems like its still iterating in the background though.

I would like to have the numbers reach 99-999...I'm sure it's something simple I'm overlooking.

Thanks in advance.

well for one its pointless to use the for loop like that on lines 17-21.
just do something like this

    int i = 0;
    do {
        cout << i << i << "-" << i << i << i << endl;
        i++;
    } while(i < 10);

that is if you are trying to do what it looks like you are trying to achieve.
but that will only get results of 00-000, 11-111, 22-222, ect.... and not like 00-000, 00-001, 00-002, ect..for that you would have to do something like

int i = 0, j = 0, k = 0, l = 0, m2  = 0;
    do {
        for(unsigned int n = 0; n < 1000; n++){
            cout << i << j << "-" << k << l << m2 << endl;
            if(m2 != 9) m2++;
            if(m2 == 9 && l != 9){ l++; m2 = 0; }
            if(l == 9 && k != 9){ k++; l = 0; }
            if(k == 9 && j != 9){ j++; k = 0; }
            if(j == 9 && i != 9){ i++; j = 0; }
            if(i == 9 && j == 9 && k == 9 && l == 9 && m2 == 9) { cout << i << j << "-" << k << l << m2 << endl; break; }
        }
        if(i == 9 && j == 9 && k == 9 && l == 9 && m2 == 9) break;
    } while(i < 10);

probably not the prettiest solution

giblit,

Thanks for the fast reply,

The second code is closer to what I am doing, Thanks.
I liked how you used your for loop.
Many props :)
