I set myself the following additional goal (devised by me):
I set myself a simple challenge on c++ to create a calculator for the acceleration of a body given the force on it and its mass. Having never programmed before I chose a simple calculation (after realising every other project I wanted to do was far too advanced for me) in order to get comfortable using c++. I am happy with how my programme works and content that I now understand the basics of c++. I look forward to being able to do something more advanced.
// Here begins file SESSION1.cc #includeusing namespace std; int main () { // declaring variables: int a, b, result; cout << "Enter the force (N) on an object followed by its mass (kg)"; cin >> a >> b; // calculation result = a/b; // print out the result: cout << "The acceleration of the object is " << result << " ms^2 "; // terminate the program: return 0; }
