running the program, it gives a wrong answer. what should you do to get the wright answer?
#include<iostream>
#include<conio.h>
int main(){
int a,b,c;
cout<<"Please enter three numbers"<<endl;

#include<iomanip.h>
#include<conio.h>
int main(){
char name[50];int id;
cout<<"Please enter the student ID(8 digits)"<<endl;
cin>>id;
cout<<"please enter the student name"<<endl;
cin.getline(name,20,'\n');
cout<<setw(10)<<setfill('#')<<id<<setw(10)<<name<<setw(3)<<" ";

if(rem(2,n)==0)
disp('the number is even');
else
disp('the number is odd');
end
command window:

please enter a number 8

the number is odd
