C++: Area of a rectangle

Work out an area.

What to build

A program that reads two decimals and multiplies them.

Requirements

  • Read the width and the height.
  • Print area A.

Input

One line with two numbers.

Output

One line.

Constraints

Each number is from 0 to 1000, with at most one decimal place.

Example

Input:

2.5 4

Output:

area 10

Why it works

double holds fractions, and cout prints as few digits as it needs.

Examples

Example 1 · Input
2.5 4
Expected output
area 10
Example 2 · Input
1.5 1.5
Expected output
area 2.25

Hints

Hint 1

Use double, because the sizes can have fractions.

Hint 2

cin reads doubles too.

Solution

Show one correct solution (try it yourself first)
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main() {
    double w, h;
    cin >> w >> h;
    cout << "area " << w * h << endl;
    return 0;
}
