INSTRUCTIONS:

Given a number, calculate how many years into the future it is, and what date. Assume no leap years. For example: Please enter a day of the year (0 to exit): 1 jan 1 Please enter a day of the year (0 to exit): 365 dec 31 Please enter a day of the year (0 to exit): 366 1 year jan 1 Please enter a day of the year (0 to exit): 0 Thanks for playing!

Hi Student,

There is a minor mistake in the if else loop. You just need to change the below lines

else
{
  
if(day>365)

to

else if(day> 365) {

Complete code is given below for your referance

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;

int
main ()
{
  
const int DAYS[] =
{ 31, 59, 90, 120, 151, 181, 212, 243, 273, 304, 334, 365 };
  
const string MONTHS[] =
{ "jan", "feb", "mar", "apr", "may", "jun", "jul", "aug", "sep", "oct",
"nov", "dec" };
  

int day, month;
  
int totalYears = 0;
  

while (true)
  
{
  
cout << "Please enter a day of the year (0 to exit): ";
  
cin >> day;
  
cout << day << endl;
  

if (day == 0)
  
   {
  
break;
  
}
  
else if (day < 0)
  
   {
  
cout << "Invalid Input!";
  
}
  
else if (day > 365)
  
   {
  

totalYears = day / 365;
  

if (totalYears == 1)
  
   {
  
cout << totalYears << " year";
  
cout << endl;
  
}
  
   else
  
   {
  
cout << totalYears << " years";
  
cout << endl;
  
}
  

}
  


day = day - (totalYears * 365);
  

for (int i = 0; i < 12; i++)
  
   {
  
if (DAYS[i] > day - 1)
  
   {
  
cout << MONTHS[i] << " ";
  
if (day > 31)
      
       {
      
cout << day - DAYS[i - 1] << endl;
      
}
  
   else
      
       {
      
cout << day << endl;
      
}
  
break;
  
}
  
}
  
}
  

cout << "Thanks for playing!" << endl;
  

return 0;

}

I had checked the working of the program thoroughly.
