    well I've learnt lots of new commands and programming, but I want to know a specific something.

    if you want a program to loop, that's my 4rth program but i want it to loop, how do i do so?

    #include <iostream>
    using namespace std;

    int main()
    {
    int length;
    int width;

    cout << "Enter the length ";
    cin >> length;

    cout << "Enter the width ";
    cin >> width;

    cout << "the area is: ";
    cout << length * width << "\n";



    return 0;
    }

    2nd i want change the design instead of having the cmd window...

    like make it look cool..

    I wanna set a website with things like that, you know i wanna have a try... It'll be awesome, and probably in a few weeks ill have c++ beginners all down and ill 1 utility that has everything to do with math, and such.

    and other cool programs such as umm i dunno, when i know the possibilites then ill have billions of ideas :p.

    to make your own interface you have to start with a win32 application project rather than a win32 command application project. Win32 application projects are a lot more involved than the console variants.

    Loops are done as follows:

    int main()
    {
    int i;
    for (i=0;i=1-;i++;)
    {
    cout << i << "\n";

    }

    return 0;
    }

    or:


    int main()
    {
    int i=0;
    while (i<11)
    {
    cout << i << "\n";
    i++;
    }

    return 0;
    }
