Creating a Code File

Now that you have created a Project, you can add source code to it.

To do so, go to the Project menu, select Add to Project, then New

You should see the following:

• Click on C/C++ Source File

• In the File Name textfield, type dayOfWeek

• Click OK. You should now see a screen that looks similar to this:

Now in the edit window that just appeared, type in the following code:

#include <iostream.h>

int main() //Find the Day of the Week for a Date
{
  int	mon, day, year;
  cout << "Enter a date for which you wish to know" << endl;
  cout << "the day of the week (MM DD YYYY)? ";
  cin  << month >> day >> year;
  if (year < 1752)
    cout << "Only Gregorian dates accepted, sorry " << endl;
  else {
    if (month < 3) { //Jan & Feb = 13 & 14 preceding year
	month += 12;
	year  -= 1;
    { // end if
    weekDay = (day + 2*month + 3*(month+1)/5 + year +
	   year/4 - year/100 + year/400 + 1) % 7;
    if (month > 12) { //reset Jan & Feb
	month -= 12;
	year  += 1 ;
    } // end if
    cout << month << "/" < day << "/" << year << " falls on ";
    switch (weekday)
      {
	case 0: cout << "Sunday" << endl; break;
 	case 1: cout << "Monday" << endl; break;
	case 2: cout << "Tuesday" << endl; break;
	case 3: cout << "Wednesday" << endl; break;
	case 4: cout << "Thursday" << endl; break;
	case 5: cout << "Friday" << endl; break;
	case 6: cout << "Saturday" << endl; break;
      } // end switch
  } // end else
  return 0;
} // end main

• When you are done, save the file (<Ctrl S> or File, Save)

Now you are ready to Build your project.
