I can not get the program work properly. it suppose to .50 per hour and $2 for parking fee.
it is suppose to use the Calculate Charge function. here is my code the program works but if you enter a odd number it will not show decimal.

#include "stdafx.h"

#using <mscorlib.dll>

using namespace System;

int _tmain()
{
int a = 2.00, // Parking Fee
int h, // number of hours parked
int x=1.00, // charged per hour
int t; // total


Console::WriteLine(S"Please enter the # of hours Parked, -1 to quit");
h = Int32::Parse(Console::ReadLine());

while (h != -1){
t= h*x/2 + 2;

Console::WriteLine(S"Your total is {0}",t.ToString());

a= Int32::Parse(Console::ReadLine());
}//end while
return 0;
}

Hi jfrazier,

Your problem is that you are using int's for everything. Int's don't calculate or store any fractional values. Try changing your variable types to double.
