Help with c++ interface

[mareshka]

I got new assigment of lecturer, and i need to program a calculator, but calcultaro shouldn't be in black screen as .cmd is. I need to create a field og a screen where i fill the mathematics action and other variables. I am not working with c++ builder. i am working with c++ visual studio 2008, can anyone advice me any guide ?

Please clarify. It seems you want to do some graphical programming, but could you be a bit clearer on the expectations of the assignment?

[mareshka]

In the output window of .cmd i should draw a table, where i should put the equatation(for example A*(B+C) = 1*(2+3);.
and under the table, the program should write like that :

A = 1
B = 2
C = 3

and under that should be written the result of equatation.

All i need is just to find how to make nice .cmd where it is not black, but good out looking, and there should be a table where i can put information for equation to be calculated for my program.

sorry, for my bad english, i am just a beginner of programming.
Thanks.

for example:
img219. imageshack . us / i / lalas . png /

Wait in your original post you said you didn't want it to be in a "black screen as .cmd is", which I assumed meant you didn't want to use the console. Here you say you want to draw a table on the console...if that's true, then you may want to look into one of the "curses" variants, which will let you do more with the console, bringing it closer to graphical programming.

Also, you link doesn't work.

That's why i am asking, because i have no idea what to do.So if i don't want to do with console, can you give me a guide ? i wana realise what's the difference between them.

Like I said, you can try looking into the 'curses' libraries for cross-platform console work, or something like SFML for non-console graphics programming.
