I need help with C++ Programming. We are using Dev C++?

I am so lost...


I am attempting to create a program that first asks to enter an


integer between 0 and 35. If the number is less than or equal to 9, the


program should output the number; otherwise it should output A for 10, B for


11, C for 12,...so on... and Z for 35. Then it tells me to use the cast operator, static_cast%26lt;char%26gt;(), for numbers %26gt;=10.





I am just lost period on how the static_cast function works...I have spent hours trying to find information...and figure it out!

static_cast%26lt;int%26gt;("A") = 65





gives you the ASCII value of the character





Whole program:================================...





char array[25]={'A','B',.....'Z'}





cout %26lt;%26lt; "Enter number: ";


cin %26gt;%26gt; number





if(number %26lt;= 10){


cout %26lt;%26lt; number;


}


else


cout %26lt;%26lt; array[number- 10];





That is the basic program you need to write it will work just dress it up to look pretty
Reply:Okay.. So here's the thing.. Characters and integers are closely related. If you store the value "65" in a char you get the letter "A" if you store the value "65" in an integer you get the number 65. With that said, it should make a little more sense that you can cast an integer into a character and vise versa. Casting will work like this:





int myint = 65;





char ch = (char) myint; //casts myint to a character





cout %26lt;%26lt; "myint " %26lt;%26lt; myint %26lt;%26lt;"\n";


cout %26lt;%26lt; "myint casted to char" %26lt;%26lt; ch;








try that code in your program and see what happens.





The general form of casting is (%26lt;datatype%26gt;) %26lt;object%26gt;.








I'm a bit rusty with the C++ but hopefully this help.
