Just something I'm working on at Uni. Fairly basic stuff.

Copy and paste in to Notepad and save as Filename.c (Not .txt.).

Find the file in command prompt and compile it then run it.
(Type gcc filename.c to compile, then type filename.exe to run)

Tell me what ya think so far. I'm obviously new to all this stuff so it is only a command prompt program. No GUI or anything.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <math.h>

void option1();
void option2();
void option3();


char inputLine[100]; // Used to get inputs from the user

int main() { // Main routine


// Header Scren Variables

int option;

// Header Screen

while(option != 5)
{

printf("Please select which option you would like to execute, by pressing the corresponding number.\n\nOption 1---: Calculate the roots of quadratic equation ax^2+bx+c. Supply the values of a,b and c.\nOption 2---: Enter how many names you have. The program will print out different combinations of the full name given.\nOption 3---: Supply two integers which will then be used to calculate a*x^n.\nOption 4---: Supply a positive integer.
