having some fun in C

[pm94]

hey guys 

so i was trying to code a program that allowed me to add in a pattern 

the pattern is:

x+y=z

then it must add again but now x must be equal to z 

and y is just 1+1 until a maximum defined by the user 

the first x must also be defined by the user

0+1=1

1+2=3

3+3=6

6+4=10

10+5=15

it must do all this calculations in background and only print to the screen the result of all the calculation until the number defined as maximum in y

 

hope you guys can help

thx

not sure if school work `-`

 

(get input from user for x and maximum)

y = 1;

while(x < maximum){

x+y=z;
x=z;
y++;

(insert code to display x or z here)
}

i think there's something wrong

 

while (x < maximum), the x should be changed to y

i think i misunderstood it lol

i'm getting this error

 

error: lvalue required as left operand of assignment                                                                                                                        

 x+y=z;

here is the code so far

 

#include <stdio.h>
 
int main()
{
    int maximum;
    int y;
    int x;
    int z;
 
   printf("numero de semanas\n");
   scanf("%d", &x);
   printf("saldo\n");
   scanf("%d",&maximum);
y = 1;
while(y < maximum){

x+y=z;
x=z;
y++;

printf("%d\n",z);

}
   return 0;

}

}

try changing

int x; -> int x = 0;

 

as x doesnt have a value when you compile, the compiler spits this error

try z = x + y; instead

well it worked but when i tried 

i gave it a maximum of 1 it started spitting out a bunch of numbers 

didn't even ask the second parameter

btw i wrote the code wrong last time 

fixed it now

 

#include <stdio.h>
 
int main()
{
    int maximum;
    int y;
    int x = 0;
    int z;
 
   printf("numero de semanas\n");
   scanf("%d", &maximum);
   printf("saldo\n");
   scanf("%d",&x);
y = 1;
while(y < maximum){

z=x+y;
x=z;
y++;

printf("%d\n",z);

}
   return 0;
}

well... im not familiar with C so... im familiar with c++ lol

but if you're using the scanf properly then it shouldnt happen (i know printf, not scan f)
