EDIT: After re-writing my code in my IDE, for the 8th time today, I have made rookie mistake of giving my inputs a false data type, that has been fixed but my outputs still are
Here's the problem: There are 4 loops, one for quarters, one for dimes, one for nickels, and one for pennies. The first loop condition is correct:
while (cents >= 25)
The other three are incorrect:
while (cents > 10)
while (cents > 5)
while (cents > 1)
These all need to be changed to use >=
in place of >
.
you can do it much simple for any nominals. Use integer types.
int nominals[] = {100, 25, 10, 5, 1, 0};
void getNominals(double money, int *result)
{
unsigned ncents = money * 100.0;
int *nm = nominals;
while(*nm && ncents)
{
*result++ = ncents / *nm;
ncents %= *nm++;
}
}
int main(void)
{
int result[sizeof(nominals) / sizeof(nominals[0])] = {0};
getNominals(4.36, result);
for(size_t index = 0; nominals[index]; index++)
{
printf("%d = %d\n", nominals[index], result[index]);
}
}
