Adding integers

[Chubbs]

Hello everyone,
I need to write a program that asks the user for 10 numbers and then adds the numbers up. Here's what I've come up with so far.

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main ()
{	
	int a, x, total=0;
	for (x = 1; x <= 10; x++)
	{
		cout << "Enter an integer: ";
		cin >> a;
		total= total + a;
	}
	cout << "The total is " << a << endl;
}

I can't figure out how to get my program to add up the numbers.

Thanks

Hi there,

Your program is correct, but you are displaying the wrong variable at the end:

cout << "The total is " << a << endl;

Should be:

cout << "The total is " << total<< endl;

Hope that helps,

All the best,
