C++ Question (if and while loops)

Answer 1

Your while statement is in error

while (wage = 0) assigns 0 to wage.

What you want is to compare wage to 0, ie.:

while (wage == 0).

However, comparing double's to some value is very bad practice due to rounding errors. Much safer is to always have a < or > in there:

while (wage < 0.0001)

If you confuse assignment (=) and comparison (==) often, and you don't have a compiler to warn you for this, you can adopt the coding style to put the constant first:

while(0 == x)
