make another variable to show how many people can be added to the meeting still

change the if statement to show its LESS than or equal to capacity, you have greater than

under the same statement take the new variable and set it equal to capacity - people

cout

 

[mtlhead 10+ year member]

for the else condition

people - capacity = new variable

cout

or something like that

also, you need to determine what the capacity is, you are only asking for the amount of people, capacity has no value

Been a while since I've done C++, but this should work fine:

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{

int people;
int capacity;
int diff;

cout << "Please enter the number of people attending:";
cin >> people;
cout << "Please enter the maximum number of people who can legally attend:";
cin >> capacity;

if (people < capacity)
 diff = capacity - people;
 cout << "You may hold the meeting.  An additional " << diff << " people may attend." << endl;
else
 diff = people - capacity;
 cout << "You may not hold the meeting as you are above the room capacity." << endl;
 cout << "You must remove " << diff << " people from the room." << endl;

return 0;
}

Well it's not worth $40 for a program so simple. Do me a favour and donate your $40 to a worthy cause.

The problems you mention are simple syntax errors. Clean those up and your program will work fine.

The best would be to buy some baby food and drop it off at your local food bank. Aside from that, try to find something that will help a kid (Make A Wish, Feed the Children, etc.).
