Logical operator (CPP)

Question

Hello, I created a code by using logical operators and I wanted to create a code that would tell if you sleep enough or not depends on your age and your amount of sleep every 24 hours. The thing is that when I try it, it gives the wrong answers for example the output is:

//
What is your age
17
How long do you sleep everynight?
10
You don't sleep enough!
//

And I don't understand because I specified that:

//
if (age > 13 && age < 18 && sleep > 7) {
cout << "You sleep enough!" << endl;
//

So please can someone help me please?

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
int age;
int sleep;

cout << "What is your age \n";
cin >> age;

cout << "How long do you sleep everynight? \n";
cin >> sleep;

if (age < 2 && sleep > 13) {
cout << "You sleep enough!" << endl;
}

if (age < 2 && sleep < 14) {
cout << "You don't sleep enough!" << endl;
}

if (age = 2 && sleep > 10) {
cout << "You sleep enough!" << endl;
}

if (age = 2 && sleep < 11) {
cout << "You don't sleep enough!" << endl;
}

if (age > 5 && age < 14 && sleep > 8) {

Answer 1

yaa,... just the equality comparison is wrong..
as Fatal1 Err0r suggested.
it should be == instead of =
== checks if the operands r equal
= assign value

Answer 2

You put "age = 2" instead of "age == 2". When you do that, you're actually assigning the value of 2 to the variable age, rather than comparing its value to your condition.

That's what I notice at first glance. Also, you didn't provide your whole code, so I can't attest to the accuracy of the rest of it. If you want to post it up in code playground and post the link here, I can check it out for you.

Answer 3

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
// Use constants so you don't have
// to type "You sleep enough" over
// and over again.
const string ENOUGH {"You sleep enough!\n"};
const string NOT_ENOUGH {"You don't sleep enough!\n"};

// Initialize these variables so
// if you want to implement input
// validation later on you have a
// base value to compare against.
int age {0};
int sleep {0};

cout << "What is your age: ";
cin >> age; cout << age << endl;

cout << "How long do you sleep everynight: ";
cin >> sleep; cout << sleep << endl;

if (age < 2)
{
if(sleep > 13)
cout << ENOUGH;
else
cout << NOT_ENOUGH;
}
else if (age == 2)
{
if(sleep > 10)
cout << ENOUGH;
else
cout << NOT_ENOUGH;
}
else if (age > 5 && age < 14)
{
if(sleep > 8)
cout << ENOUGH;
else
cout << NOT_ENOUGH;
}
else if (age > 13 && age < 18)
{
if(sleep > 7)
cout << ENOUGH;
else
cout << NOT_ENOUGH;
}
else if (age > 17 && age < 26)
{
if(sleep > 6)
cout << ENOUGH;
else
cout << NOT_ENOUGH;
}
else if (age > 25 && age < 65)
{
if(sleep > 6 )
cout << ENOUGH;
else
cout << NOT_ENOUGH;
}
else if (age > 64)
{
// A hundred million hours of
// sleep? really? :-)
if(sleep < 100000000)
cout << ENOUGH;
}

return 0;
}
