Salary is $400.00





Enter hours worked (-1 to end): 41


Enter hourly rate of the worker ($00.00): 10.00

because you're resetting gross every time you go through it. say gross = 40 * rate + overtime;


and


gross = 40 * rate;





you'll also want to initialize all your variables to 0 in the start of the program. it's very very bad coding style to do otherwise, since you're resetting them anyway.
Reply:Aside from the Windows-specific system("pause") business, it looks pretty good. If you tell us in what way it appears to not work, we will be better able to help you.
