Question

Create a program that will perform the following task: Write an if statement that will print out your full name (first and last) IF the user types in the number 1.

This is what I have and it's not working right. If you enter any number is prints out my name with a one at the end of it.

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
   int number;
  
   cout<<"Please enter a number between 1 and 10. The goal is to figure out which number will make my name appear on the screen: ";
   cin>>number;
  
   if (number = 1)
   {
       cout<<endl<<"Sandra Bullock"<<number<<endl;
      
       if (number!=1)
       {
           cout<<"The number you entered is not correct"<<endl;
       }
   }
   system("pause");
   return 0;
}

Explanation / Answer

#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
int number;
  
cout<<"Please enter a number between 1 and 10. The goal is to figure out which number will make my name appear on the screen: ";
cin>>number;
  
if (number == 1)// = is for assignment and == is for comparison
{
cout<<endl<<"Sandra Bullock"<<number<<endl;
}
else
{
cout<<"The number you entered is not correct"<<endl;
}
  
system("pause");
return 0;
}

Output:

Please enter a number between 1 and 10. The goal is to figure out which number will make my name appear on the screen: 1
Sandra Bullock1
