	{
		total = (result * 400) + total;
		cout << total << endl;
		day1++;
	};

Some more explanation about your issue would be needed.



Edit:

Have you set total as 0 before entering the loop ? Otherwise if you have just declared the variable (without assigning 0 as value) and summed value to it, then it might give you unexpected values as output. Because the compiler would assign a garbage value for that variable, if you don't assign anything.

i found some syntax error in the upper part of my code.
thanks for the reply..
