Is there a way to add all the elements of a vector to an integer sequentially?

#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <algorithm>
using namespace std;


void dump (vector<int> v)
{
  for (auto x :v )
    cout << x << " ";
  cout << "\n";
}

int main()
{

  { // method 1: access items by indices
    vector<int> v{1,2,3};

    int c = 4;

    for (size_t n = 0; n<v.size(); ++n)
    {
      v[n] += c;
    }

    cout << "method 1: ";
    dump(v);
  }

  { // method 2: access items with ranged for loop
    vector<int> v{1,2,3};

    int c = 4;

    for (auto & x : v)
    {
      x += c;
    }

    cout << "method 2: ";
    dump(v);
  }


  { // method 3: use 'transform' of the algorithm library
    vector<int> v{1,2,3};

    int c = 4;

    transform(v.begin(), v.end(), v.begin(), [=](int  x){ return x+c; });

    cout << "method 3: ";
    dump(v);
  }
}

As a side note, is there a way to add a repeating number to an integer to infinity?

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;


int main()
{
  int i = 1;
  int last_i;
  int c = 4;
  for (;;)
  {
    last_i = i;
    i += c;
    if ( i < last_i)
      break;
  }

  cout <<  "unfortunately, (" << last_i << "+" << c << ") makes " <<  i;
}

1. In VS menu Project -> Add New Item ... ->
2. In "Add New Item" dialog select MFC in the treeview left, and then choose the "MFC Class From Typelib" and press the Add button
3. In the "Add Class From Typelib" dialog choose the source of interface (registry or file), type libraries and then all the needed interfaces.
4. then press OK
