Hi all,

I'm new to C++, and I'm trying to add the last two digits of a number.
for example, 1988 , 8+8=16 any idea on how to do that?

thanks.

Read about operator / (division) and operator % (remainder). We're not
going to do your homework for you.

*checks date* nope, not september.

This sounds suspiciously like a homework question. We try not to do
people's homework on here, if we can. However, here's a hint:
Convert the number to a string and exctract the last two characters.
Convert them back to numbers and add them. Don't forget to check the
string first to make sure it's really a number.

Another hint:

Please to not take offence at the above post. I can assure you that none
was meant.
Welcome to the group; we all hope you stick around and grow to love C++
as we do.

Tiff

That works but there is an easier numerical way.
