thanks dan i didnt know how to post it on this forum

for those who want to know this program was created using C++ programming language

Nice idea!

There is a small hitch though, the first two menu options rely on hard-coded "price per litre" values. As fuel prices rise on a seemingly hourly basis these days, maybe this should be a user-entered value?

Nice.I like the Eco rating, mines good bout 40mpg
Could you pretty please make it so you can change the price of fuel on some of the options

Nice idea but I do it with a calculator and a pencil, all you need to know to get MPG is that 1 gallon = 4.545 litres, the rest is simple.
Who am I kidding I can do the calculations in my head.

miles / (litres/4.54) = mpg

oops sorry i just realised the option 2 will be changed so it calculates to petrol price. OTHER options that involves inputting price of petrol it does the calculations to convert the price into litres buts done behind the program so you dont see it.

thanks for the feedback

this is my calculation for option 2

ltr2gal=4.54; // 1 ltr in gallons is 4.45
factor=10;

gallons = litres/ltr2gal; // calculations to convert litres to gallons
miles = mpg/factor*gallons*factor; // calculating ?? gallons to miles

argh sorry guys its supposed to by litres not price!! i will fix it ASAP!

Hey guys thanks for letting me know about the little problem, its been sorted out

about option 2 it converts the price you put in to the program into gallons and it uses the gallons value to do the calculation ok

heres the NEW version 2, and again if theres any error then please let me know

thank you again...

Great little program, cheers kashem.

can it save now?

22mpg in the marea! yeah

i prefer to go with the little known method of testing economy, smiles per mile. no smile = long distance with current tank of petrol, lots of smiles = short trip.:slayer:
