I'm currently learning C++ and this is one of my assignments. I just spent a better half of a day looking into this to no avail.
printYear() has been tested with numerous years and is functional. The only remanding error left is with argv[]. It only returns the first digit of the year inputted, which is fine if you want to research years 0-9. Any tips or trick you guys mind passing me? (I'm using Microsoft Visual Studio fyi)
Command line
calender.exe 1982
returns with
Number of Arguments Loaded : 1
Year : 1
Year is 1
Repetitive code I know but I'm troubleshooting.
