hello all, i just recently got started programming in C++ using tutorials on the web and i'm learning how to read and wright to text files however i am stuck. i want my program to simply output the # 1-100 to a text file which is created, however i can't figure out exactly how to do this, the code i have so far is [code] #include <cstdlib> #include <iostream> #include <conio.h> // for getch() #include <fstream> // for ofstream using namespace std; int main() { ofstream a_file( "numbers.txt" ); int x; cout<<"this program will make a txt file called numbers and output 0 - 100 in it"; for ( int x = 0; x < 100; x++); // make x inrement up to 100 a_file << x; // only prints the actual x not the variable?? a_file.close(); // closes file getch(); // wait for keypress }; [/code] hopefully someone can help me with this problem, as i said before i'm really new to this language so i might of made some other mistakes as well...thanks in advance, also i am using Dev c++ latest version

#include <stdlib.h> #include <iostream.h> #include <conio.h> #include <fstream.h> int main() { ofstream a_file( "numbers.txt" ); int x; for ( x = 0; x <= 100; x++) a_file << x << '\n'; a_file.close(); } ===================================== If at first you don't succeed, you're about average. M2
