program help

[tdog5555]

know how to fix

// Example program
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;
int ages [15] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15,};
int sum, result=0;
int average;
std::string shoe;

int main()
{
  std::string name;
  std::cout << "What is your name? ";
  getline (std::cin, name);
  std::cout << "Hello, " << name << "!\n";
  
  std::cout << "how are you doing today? ";
  getline (std::cin, name);
  std::cout << "that's good" << "\n";
  
  std::cout << "what do you like to do for fun?";
  getline (std::cin, name);
  std::cout << " cool i like to play video games" << "\n";
  
std::string age;
std::cout << "how old are you";
std::cin >> age;
std::cout<<"wow your older than me""\n";

getline (std::cin, name);
std::cout<<"what is your favorite video game?" "\n";
getline (std::cin, name);
std::cout<<"that game is fun but my favorite is cod" "\n";

  std::cout<<"what is your shoe size";
    getline (std::cin, shoe);
    std:: cout<<" tell everyone else around you to input their shoe size if there isnt anyone else just input 0";    
    getline (std::cin, shoe);
    getline (std::cin, shoe);
    getline (std::cin, shoe);
    getline (std::cin, shoe);
    
  
    sum = (ages + shoe); // it says this is wrong and i dont know why there might be a mistake somewhere
    
    average =(sum/5);
    std::cout << result;
    return 0;
}

im new to pragramming so i thought you guys could help me

[AbstractionAnon]

Line 25,31: These are function prototypes. You don't need a function prototypes for main().

Line 46: You can't add an int array and a string.

Line 48: You're doing integer division. You're not going to get the result you expect.

Line 49: Where did result come from? It was initialized to 0 and never changed.

What are you trying to fix? Please be specific.

ok i put in where the program says the problem is. sorry im new

[AbstractionAnon]

See my previous comment about line 46. Why are you trying to add an int array and a string? What is this supposed to do?

Please edit your post and apply code tags per my previous request.

[tdog5555]

what do youmean by code tags

[AbstractionAnon]

Read the link I provided. Code tags provide line numbering and syntax highlighting.

[tdog5555]

i think i did it your being pretty helpful so far thx but i still dont know whats wrong with the code

[AbstractionAnon]

but i still dont know whats wrong with the code

Line 45: I've pointed out twice that you can't add an int array (ages) to a string (shoe).

Please explain what you are trying to do with that line.

[tdog5555]

im trying to make people put in their shoe sizes then it shoould output all of the shoe sizes added put together then divide them by five i need to chance that five to fifteen so dont pay attention to that but im probably doing that whole part of the program wrong so thats why i asked for help because i dont know exactly how to do what im wanting to do it should take the shoe sizes then add them together then display that then divide it by 15. and thats all i was wanting to do but idk how.

[AbstractionAnon]

Something like this:

    int shoes[5];       // Allocate an array for shoe sizes
    cout << "What is your shoe size? ";
    cin >> shoes[0]; 
    cout<<"Tell four people around you to input their shoe size";    
    cin >> shoes[1]; 
    cin >> shoes[2]; 
    cin >> shoes[3]; 
    cin >> shoes[4]; 
    sum = 0;            //  Initialize sum
    for (int i=0; i<5;i++)
        sum += shoes[i];  
    average = (sum/5);  
    cout << "Average shoe size is: " << average << endl;

[tdog5555]

what does allocate mean

[tdog5555]

you are soo helpful thanks

[AbstractionAnon]

Allocate means "reserve storage for".

[tdog5555]

ok i got it to work but how do i display all the shoe sizes they entered added together also along with the average

[AbstractionAnon]

Simply iterate through the array and print each entry in the array.

  cout << "Shoe sizes are: " << endl;
  for (int i=0; i<5;i++)
      cout << shoes[i] << endl;

[tdog5555]

std::string age;
std::cout << "how old are you";
std::cin >> age;
if (age==13) // says this is wrong { 
    cout<< "you are the same age as me";}
    else if ( age > 13 )  // says this is wrong { 
        cout<< "you are older than me";}
     else if ( age < 13 ) // says this is wrong {
        cout<< "you are younger then me";}

[tdog5555]

any ideas on that one right there
because i have a code just like it and it works

[AbstractionAnon]

Line 4,6,8: age is a string. You can't compare a string to an integer (13).

Change age to an int.

[tdog5555]

you are so helpful could you explain this code to me i dont know how it works

for (int i=0; i<5;i++)
        sum += shoes[i]; 
        cout << "Shoe sizes are: " << endl;
