   t=(num-(h*100))/10;
   o=((num-(h*100))-(t*10));
   h=num/100;
   t=(num-(h*100))/10;

Convert integer number to String. Length of of this String gives you info, how many digits are. Create int[string.length()] array. Use loop to transcribe all values. On fly convert particular values to int.
Find a better solution (using % and / operators).

@scias23 : if I can't get the code from working, pause for a while and ask yourself, "am i coding the right code?"
-- while!

i can't think of a solution that uses the modulo operator

Hi!
I suggest you should read on this and you will find the solution easily..
But as a help,
You can use % operator to simplify do it.

int a=563%100; //a=63
int b=a%10; //b=3
int a=563%100; //a=63
int b=a%10; //b=3

use % with / and you can simply do the job...

I hope this helps you..
