Anyone here know C++ programming? I have a question.

Have a question....trying to get a blank line where I have it listed in yellow. What am I missing. The program works fine, just can't get it spaced like I want.

//John ######
//COP1000.052
//This program calculates the sum, average, median, minimum and maximum of 3 input numbers.
#include
usingnamespace std;
int main()
{
float median;
float numberone;
float numbertwo;
float numberthree;
cout << "This program calculates the sum,average, median, minimum \n" ;
cout << "and maximum from 3 input numbers." << endl << endl;
cout << "Please input the first value: ";
cin >> numberone;
WOULD LIKE A BLANK LINE HERE
cout << "Please input the second value: ";
cin >> numbertwo;
WOULD LIKE A BLANK LINE HERE
cout << "Please input the third value: ";
cin >> numberthree;
WOULD LIKE A BLANK LINE HERE
cout << "The three input numbers entered are:" << numberone << ", " << numbertwo << ",and " << numberthree << endl << endl;
if ((numberone >= numbertwo && numberone <= numberthree) || (numberone >= numberthree && numberone <= numbertwo)) median = numberone;
elseif ((numbertwo >= numberone && numbertwo <= numberthree) || (numbertwo >= numberthree && numbertwo <= numberone)) median = numbertwo;
else median = numberthree;

cout << "The sum is:" << (numberone + numbertwo + numberthree) << endl << endl;
cout << "The average is:" <<((numberone + numbertwo +numberthree)/3) << endl << endl;
cout << "The maximum is:" << max(max(numberone, numbertwo), numberthree)<< endl << endl;
cout << "The median is:" << median << endl << endl;
cout << "The minimum is:" << min(min(numberone, numbertwo), numberthree)<< endl << endl << endl << endl;
cout << "Thank you for playing. \n" << endl << endl;
return 0;
}

not 100% but try these.

cout <<'\n << \n'

cout <<'\\n << \\n'

Try the bolded additions

I had already tried that but it didn't space like I wanted. It did this instead

Please enter first value
10
Please enter second value
20
Please enter third value
30


I was trying to get it to look like this

Please enter first value: 10

Please enter second value: 20

Please enter third value: 30



This is how it is as I have it written now...


Please enter first value:10
Please enter second value:20
Please enter third value:30

cin >> numberthree;
cout >> "\n"

Have you tried this?
