Simple calender program.

princemoon (20)
I am a calender program which should look like this. 
1
2
3
4
5
 
S  M   Tu  W   Th  F  S
   2  3   4   5   6   7
8   9  10  11 12 13 14
15 16 17 18 19 20 21
23 24 25 26 27 28

but the alignment of numbers with days is all messed up what should I do.

Hi there,

You will want to use manipulators in order to set a specific length of every column.
More information and examples here:

http://cplusplus.com/reference/iomanip/
http://cplusplus.com/reference/iomanip/setw/

Don't forget to do #include <iomanip>

Hope that helps.

All the best,
NwN

I used this.
