The question implies (Write a program that uses a for statement to calculate and print the product of the odd integers from 1 to 15.)

This is what i have so far...

CODE
#include <iostream>

using std::cout;
using std::cin;
using std::endl;
//using std::fixed;



int main()
{




// declerations

//int number;


int total=0;



for (int number=1;number<=15;number+=2)
    total *= number;

cout<< "Number is " << total << endl;

I don't know C++ at all, but I do see something wrong:
CODE

int total=0;


When you have that and call
CODE

total *= number;


What you're realling doing is:
0*1*3*5*7...

To fix it, set total equal to 1 initially. That should work.
