counting iterations of a while loop

[dunnDolphin]

I am starting with a user input (a whole number). The goal is to us a loop to decrement the input number by 10. What I want to out put is the final number of iterations ONLY.

Here is the code I have so far:

#include <iostream>
using namespace std; 
          
int main()
{         
   int ticketsWon;
   int num; num = 0;

   //ask user to input number of tickets won
   cout << "Enter the number of tickets you won: ";
   cin >> ticketsWon;

   //if number entered is >= 10 subtract 10
   while(ticketsWon >= 10)
   {
        ticketsWon = ticketsWon - 10;
        cout << "Candy Bars = " << ++num << " \n";

   }
    
   return 0;
}

It's basically doing what I want, except it's printing every iteration. Like this:

flip2 ~/kingmat 81% ./arcade3
Enter the number of tickets you won: 100
Candy Bars = 1 
Candy Bars = 2 
Candy Bars = 3 
Candy Bars = 4 
Candy Bars = 5 
Candy Bars = 6 
Candy Bars = 7 
Candy Bars = 8 
Candy Bars = 9 
Candy Bars = 10 

What I want to print is JUST the last line. Thanks!

Just take your cout statement and move it to after your while loop has complete. Like so:

while(ticketsWon >= 10)
{
     ticketsWon = ticketsWon - 10;
     ++num;
}
cout << "Candy Bars = " << num << " \n";

Thanks, that helped a lot.

Now I have to add a part that captures the leftover and uses a loop to decrement it by 3. Here's what I've done, and my output:

//if number entered is >= 10 subtract 10
   while(ticketsWon >= 10)
   {
        ticketsWon = ticketsWon - 10; //Decrement the number of tickets by 10 
        ++num;
   }

   cout << "You have enough tickets for " << num << " ";
   cout <<  " candy bars,\n";
   leftover = (ticketsWon % 10); //Capture the left over for gum balls

   while(leftover >= 3)
   {
        leftover = leftover - 3; // Decrement the leftover by 3
        cout << "and " << num << " ";
        cout << " gum balls.\n";
         
   }      

Enter the number of tickets you won: 56
You have enough tickets for 5  candy bars,
and 5  gum balls.
and 5  gum balls.
