Question

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()

{
int a;
cout << "Enter Code" << endl;
cin >> a;
if (a=876)
cout << "Welcome." << endl;
else
cout << "Error 876: Wrong Code" << endl;
}

Answer 1

You need to use 'if(a == 876)' instead of 'if(a=876)'. That == is comparison operator, = is assignment operator. You are assigning value of 876 to variable a in that if statement. This returns 876, which is not 0, so it's true, so that code after if statement won't be executed only if user inputs 0.

Answer 2

Missing some curly brackets.
