display input-prompt-header?
I am taking a C++ class online and am a little confused on this line what i'm supposed to enter
DISPLAY input-prompt-header for employee, preceded by newline and tab escape sequence, follow by employeeNumber and colon
DISPLAY input-prompt-header for employee, preceded by newline and tab escape sequence, follow by employeeNumber and colon

I would guess this is asking you to prompt for input for the information for an employee. I'd need more information to be sure, however.
Is your professor really giving you an assignment with such poor wording/grammar?

this is exactly what he has us doing and i'm stuck on line A-1-3-09

I guess I am going to start by pointing to you to this link:
http://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/
That link might get you started, because many of the keywords that are emphasized in your text there might get explained in there if you go through the tutorial.
I am not a big fan of coding things for you in a learning process like this, since it is the basics of c++.
