School project stuck on it

[henson33]

hey, I just started taking c++ and did the first couple projects ok but this one has me stumped. a large company pays salespeople on a commission basis. The salespeople each receive 200$ per week plus 9% of their gross sales for that week.
Make a program that uses a while statement to input each salespersons gross sale for the last week and calculates and displays that sales persons earnings process one salespersons figures at a time.

Sorry so long any help would be awesome. Thank you

What particularly do you need help with?

A large company pays salespeople on a commision basis.

So you need to find out what they got from a sale. That's in the while loop. Perhaps,

    #define SIZE /* max amount here */
    // or
    const int size = /* max amount here */;
    // Array stores sales for the week, total sales for the week
    int employeeOne_sales[SIZE], totalSales;
    int i = 0; // Iterator

    while (i++ < SIZE) { // While i < SIZE; then add 1 to i after using it (postfix increment)
        std::cin << salesemployeeOne_sales[i]; // Get sales of the week
    }

    // Got input, now we can figure out his/her gross sale product

    i = 0;

    while (i++ < SIZE) { // While i < SIZE; then add 1 to i after using it (postfix increment)
        sales += employeeOne_sales[i]; // Add the current
    }

I guess you can figure the rest out.

Haha chrisname, you really hate for loops:D
BTW, std::cin >> (...);
