Doubling Pay Problem

[georgeluevano]

As I continue to teach my self C++ I want to thank quirkyusername for the help with my earlier question. As for this one, I am learning how to write a program that doubles the pay (in pennies) for each day worked. I have the program working, but it starts the output at 2 pennies for day 1 instead of .01. Below is my code. Any help will once again be greatly appreciated.

//This program calculates how much a person earns over
//a period of time if the salary is a penny the first
//day, two pennies the second day and continues to double
//each day. The program should ask the user for the number
//of days. Then display a table showing how much the salary
//was each day and also the total pay at the end of the
//period. The output should be displayed in dollar amount.

#include <iostream>
#include <cmath>

using namespace std;

int main ()

{
int days, maxValue = 0;
float pay = .01;

cout <<"Please enter the number of days worked: ";
cin >> maxValue;

cout << "Day Pay" <<endl;
cout <<"_________________" <<endl;

for (days = 1; days <= maxValue; days++)
{
pay = ((pay) * (2));
cout <<days<<" "<<"$"<<pay<<endl;
}
return 0;
}

On line 9, the variable 'pay' is set to 0.01
On line 19, the variable 'pay' is set to 'pay' * 2, which on the first iteration is 0.02
In order to make it start at 0.01, switch lines 19 and 20 around so the printing is before the doubling.
