You did not post your full code. And your code does not compile.
Additionally, you are missing the function main().

sorry, the main function ()- is there. I just didnt paste it from my complier. Also, i used a Do-while loop but the program is not exiting when i input the request
YahooAccount (22)
Thank you !, Tencacle . I thought I had to used a while loop to exit not an IF loop. Thank you. I just learned something
boost lexical cast (395)

How do you give links to cpp.sh like that with the code already loaded up when you click the link?

I would want to know since I want to give links to cpp.sh with the code already there.

Sorry,
the program works when the hours are over 40 but they do not work when its less than 40. do I need to write something else ?

Can you better describe your problem?
YahooAccount (22)
sure,
when I put 41, the programs runs correctly and the output is correct, however,
when running the program with 40 hours, it still calculates it with overtime pay. I would like the program to only calculate when the hours are greater than 40. I hope I explain correctly
