C++ Multiplication Table program

21:13 | Posted by Unknown | 0 comments

Here is somewhat a useful program written in C++ to print out the multiplication table for any given number. This is basic programming so it may be easy to understand the code. This program demonstrates the basic C++ functions, comment uses and loops. Also it uses a custom made function, the printHeader() function. I put a lot of comments in the code hoping it would make it easier for you to understand the code.

The source code is given below. It will compile in Code Blocks and DevC++. You can download the exe version of the program here.

// Multiplication table - #XByte
// This program will print out the multiplication table of a specified number

#include <iostream>
#include <windows.h>
#include <conio.h>

using namespace std;

// Declare the void function to print out header
void printHeader();

// Function to print out header
void printHeader()
{
    cout << "------------------------------------" << endl;
    cout << " Multiplication program - By #XByte " << endl;
    cout << "------------------------------------" << endl << endl;
}

int main()
{
    // Declare variables
    int num;

    // Set title of console window
    SetConsoleTitle("Multiplication Table - #XByte");

    // Print out header
    printHeader();

    // Get input
    cout << "Enter a number: ";
    cin >> num;

    // Clear the screen
    system("cls");

    // Print out header
    printHeader();

    // Calculate and print out the table
    cout << "The multiplication table for " << num << " is: " << endl << endl;
    for (int i = 0; i <= 12; i++)
    {
        if (i < 10)
        {
            cout << " " << i << " * " << num << " = " << i * num << endl;
        }
        else
        {
            cout << i << " * " << num << " = " << i * num << endl;
        }
    }

    // Pause the program and exit on keypress
    cout << endl << "Press any key to exit...";
    getch();
    return 0;
}
