Hi I am a college student. I am in a programming class. We were just introduced to visual logic. the assingment is to create a programm that tells you how much change is due to you. and to have it diplay in currecy eg. dollars due are, quarters due are. i realize that in order for the programm to work corectly i have to implemt integers. here is my problem how do i incorperate them. say my change due was $12.5 i want it to take 12.5 divide by one and only give me whole ansers. such as 12 dollars not 12.5 dollars, so that i can take quarters and make it QuartersDue = ChangeDue - dollarsDue and then interger it. a correct program would say 2 quarters due not .5 i asked my proffesor about it via email and he told me to look it up online. i did so and could incorperate intigers through int(#) and mod # however it didnt work through my current vislogic programm or variables. where it states changedue = amontpayed- amount due - tax. then dollars due = change due / 1 and theres the problem i cant divide it by 1 and when i try the integer commands it tells me it wont work any tips or examples. dont answer my work for me though please. thaks dan man

I have the similar issue. In our book it says integer division and mod. I understand the concept but am struggling with the implementation.

The book (visual logic pg. 11) says Amount/25 will  determine quarters due and Amount Mod 25 would calculate change given after quarters.

However as I mentioned I am unable to implement expressions correctly. I want to do the work myself but cant put the pieces together without some kind of visual example.

Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated. - John G.

Look at Modulo and Integer functions If you perform X MOD INT(x) you are left with the remainder. So (12.5 MOD 12) x 100 = 50 cents

INT(50/25) = 2 Quarters
