Right now I'm using C and I came across a problem while doing a certain task. The task is to be able to input a number and the value of coins used will be displayed after. My problem is, say there is 0.10 cents worth of change, my code will skip past the dime loop (which checks if a value of 0.10 is less than the value of the change, then subtracts) and continue on to the nickel.. which will then skip the nickel after the change value goes to 0.05 and goes to pennies, which will then stop at 0.01 and end the coin count making the count one penny short and also longer than needed.
int main(void) {
float c;
int k = 0;
printf("How much change?: \n");
c = GetFloat();
//checks for quarters
for (float q = 0.25; q <= c; k = k + 1) {
c = c - 0.25;
printf("q \n");
}
//checks for dimes
for (float d = 0.10; d <= c; k = k + 1) {
c = c - 0.10;
printf("d \n");
}
//checks for nickels
for (float n = 0.05; n <= c; k = k + 1) {
c = c - 0.05;
printf("n \n");
}
//checks for pennies
for (float p = 0.01; p <= c; k = k + 1) {
c = c - 0.01;
printf("p \n");
}
printf("%d & %.02f \n", k, c);
}
I have a clue thinking that the error could be in the condition part of the for loops but I have no clue :/
