while loop will not stop

dowhile (3)
hey i have a problem with a code

this first code it will not stop

/*
Loop Program

CPT-168-A02
*/
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{

cout<<"/t/t/t**********************************"<<endl;
cout<<"/t/t/t* *"<<endl;
cout<<"/t/t/t* Loop Program *"<<endl;
cout<<"/t/t/t* CPT-168-A02 *"<<endl;
cout<<"/t/t/t**********************************"<<endl<<endl;

//Declare Variables
double HrsWrkd = 0.0;
double HrlyRate = 0.0;
double GrossPay = 0.0;
double BnS = 0.0;
int YrsWrkd = 0;

// enter input items
cout<<"Enter number of years worked: ";
cin>>YrsWrkd;
cout<<"Enter hours worked: ";
cin>>HrsWrkd;
cout<<"Enter hourly rate: ";
cin>>HrlyRate;
while (YrsWrkd != 99)
{
if (HrsWrkd > 40)
GrossPay = (40 * HrlyRate) + (HrsWrkd - 40) * 1.5 * HrlyRate;
else
GrossPay = HrsWrkd * HrlyRate;
if (YrsWrkd >= 1 && YrsWrkd <= 5)
BnS = GrossPay * 0.05;
else
if (YrsWrkd >= 6 && YrsWrkd <= 9)
BnS = GrossPay * 0.10;
else
if (YrsWrkd == 10)
BnS = GrossPay * 0.15;
else
if (YrsWrkd > 10)
BnS = GrossPay * 0.20;
else
cout<<"Invalid Number of Years Was Entered"<<endl;
//display output
cout<<"\nYour Gross Pay is: $"<<GrossPay<<endl;
cout<<"Your Bonus Is: $"<<BnS<<endl<<endl;
cout<<"THANK YOU"<<endl<<endl;
} //end while


return 0;
} //end of main function





this second code it will not show the final gross pay

I don't see YrsWrkd being changed anywhere aside from by the initial std::cout... what do you have that while loop there for anyway?

Here, i fixed it up 4 u, i used the character o instead of a number, enjoy your code and you have quite a lot of weak spots in your programming, don't keep using endl, use \n for new line =):

A pretty nice program XD
