Orange Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 Ok so I'm basically done with my project, and I am given several different numbers to input to test it. When I type in 1 for the x,y, and z values I get the correct answer, but if I type in 2, 3, etc I get the wrong answer (I checked with a calculator). So I assume somewhere I typed my equation wrong or perhaps its executing in the wrong order. This is the equation that I must use: http://prntscr.com/e18inb This is my code for the project, and the equation is on lines 20 & 38 (at the bottom is where I run the program with the 2 for x,y,z the answer should be around 7.8 but I get -94): http://prntscr.com/e18jtg Thanks for the help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mumble Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 Maybe just order of operations on line 20 at the end of it you do / x * y * z The computer sees this as (NUMBER/x)*y*z so maybe try to add paranthesis 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like a noob for not thinking about this, I've spent hours over this past week trying to figure out what I did wrong in the equation and it never occured to me to put () around the xyz part , thanks man I owe you one 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
