signed in to unsigned int |
Please could someone tell me what I need to do, in order to print a
signed int to the screen without it's sign? The original int needs to
be signed so that I can see if it's less than or greater than zero.
Once that's done, and the relevant message it printed to the screen,
the number needs to be printed without its signed.
for example:
You have made $12778
You have lost $-456 (should read you have lost $456).
Thanks in advance.

In general, you can't do that. It is like unringing a bell. You
can go
through the motions, which is an entirely different thing.

I agree entirely! It's just a shame that some people may have wasted
time looking at the post when they didn't need to.
I had been thinking about it previously, and the 'post' button seemed
to trigger my brain into creating a solution the moment it was clicked.
This post now looks a complete mess with missing posts. I think single
posts should not be allowed to be removed.

How about:
if(lost_money < 0)
lost_money*(-1);
cout << "You have lost " << lost_money << endl;

Why not just
std::cout << "You have lost " << -lost_money << std::endl;

Fantastic! Althought I didn't even know you could do that with numbers.
:o)
Thanks everyone!

You didn't think about 0 - lost_money either?

I did it again! I meant to say 'thread' not 'post'...

I think I have figured it out.
if the number is a negative:
(total - (total * 2))
May not be the best way, but it appears to work for what I need it for.
I will remove this post shortly.

You can cancel a post, which as the OP was using Google will remove it
from their archives. It's up to individual news servers as to whether
they will honor cancel (or supercede) requests. Some ignore them due to
forged cancels.

I sit corrected... You can delete only your own posts (through 'Show
options', 'Remove'), as I have done, but I meant to say thread, and
usenet doesn't allow me to delete an entire thread that I started.
Sorry for the wasted space... :o)
