Hi There!
I'm currently studying basic programming, so far I'm really enjoying it and feel I'm doing quite well,
I'm currently working through week 11's exercises (I've gone ahead a bit, we're only on week 7
)
But this last question has me stumped. Now we "MUST" use a nested loop (do until/while, for/next, whatever)
What this loop is supposed to do is calculate every possible combination of coins (5c,10c,20c) that can make up 50c
example, the finished product should do something like this
5c-10c-20c
0 - 1 - 2
2 - 0 - 2
etc
And then display it in a list box.
it's the loop itself I'm struggling with, I'm sure making a separate loop for each coin type is the best way to do this,
if someone could, not so much do this for me, rather give me a shove in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated!
Many thanks

VB.NET:
PS, my variables are as follows,
Const FIVE As Integer = 5
Const TEN As Integer = 10
Const TWENTY As Integer = 20
Const FIFTY As Integer = 50
Dim FiveCoins As Integer
Dim TenCoins As Integer
Dim TwentyCoins As Integer
Dim Value As Integer
