Can you show some output you currently get ? As well as the output you would have liked instead ?
</div>

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
Working on a program (helping someone). File is attached. Input a number such as 9000, then hit enter. Input second number as perhaps 9300. Try again with 2nd number as 0078<br />
It is simulating a gas meter.<br />
The output is right and vertically aligned as you can see, but somehow he has extraneous zeroes where there should be spaces.<br />
How is this corrected?<br />

Thanks<br />

c++ need help formatting and aligning output

Development in most programming languages is frequently done with an editor or integrated development environment (IDE). An IDE is a software application that provide comprehensive facilities to computer programmers for software development. An IDE normally consists of a source code editor, build automation tools and a debugger. XCode, Visual Studio, Adobe Dreamweaver and Eclipse are some of the more popular development tools, but an editor or IDE can be anything from simple text editors to sophisticated programs.

C++ is an intermediate-level general-purpose programming language, not to be confused with C or C#. It was developed as a set of extensions to the C programming language to improve type-safety and add support for automatic resource management, object-orientation, generic programming, and exception handling, among other features.
