Program Description: This test, or driver, program, which demonstrates the "while"     // A-1-1-02

                     several employees. The organization pays "straight time" for      // A-1-1-02
                     the first 40 hours worked by each employee and pays               // A-1-1-02
                     "time-and-a-half" for all hours worked in excess of 40 hours.     // A-1-1-02
                     The program prompts the user for hours worked and hourly pay rate // A-1-1-02
                     for three employees and, from that information, calculates gross  // A-1-1-02
                     pay. A list of employee number and gross pay is displayed after   // A-1-1-02
                     all input as been accepted.                                       // A-1-1-02

Why is the else statement to calculate the gross pay commented? Use {} to write multiple statement inside the else statement. Prototyping of the functions may be required.

I am doing the same assignment. My gross product works and it is the same but you changed the following by accident

cout << ++employeeNumber; // A-1-3-22
should be
++employeeNumber;

Ok i changed that, but for some reason i still cant get the calculations to get the grossPay to work. i get numbers like $001EF9A40
Psych (9)
is your "else" blue on your screen? line 39

also the following it different than mine. do not know if it matters
cout << "\n\t" << employeeNumber // A-1-3-26 TODO
<< "\t$" << fixed << showpoint << setprecision (2) // A-1-3-27 TODO
<< employeeGrossPay[employeeNumber - 1]; // A-1-3-28 TODO

your line 73 is also different, I just copied line 75

I'm confused on what is wrong on those. I honestly have no clue what to change. I have been working on this thing nonstop since 10 this morning and I cant figure out whats wrong.

Ok, you made your line 73 the exact same thing as line 75?
andywassup (35)
o ok for clearing the keyboard buffer? i didnt catch that they were the same thing! ok but how did you change
cout << "\n\t" << employeeNumber // A-1-3-26 TODO
<< "\t$" << fixed << showpoint << setprecision (2) // A-1-3-27 TODO
<< employeeGrossPay[employeeNumber - 1]; // A-1-3-28 TODO

because i dont get what is wrong with them

o i see what is different but when i tried that it still didnt give me the right grossPay. i dont think it made a difference.

and it is supposed to look like this when its finished: 3 $2750.00

50*50=2500
andywassup (35)
