Search string?
 

I am trying to do a sequential string, but when I run my program I recieve three errors:the first one talks about 'searchList' : cannot convert parameter 3 from 'const char [4]' to 'std::string []
( I tried putting code tags by inserting my code between the , but I am not positive if it is displaying) Sorry for any convenience!

  

#include <iostream>

#include <fstream>    



using namespace std;





int searchList(string array[], int, string value[]);

const int ARRAY_SIZE = 3;



int main()

{

        string someArray[ARRAY_SIZE] = {"mouse", "cat", "ant"};

        int results;

        results = searchList(someArray, ARRAY_SIZE, "ant");



        if (results == -1)

        cout << "You did not earn 100 points on any test\n";

        else

        {

        cout << "You earned 100 points on test ";

        cout << (results + 1) << endl;

        }

        return 0;

}

int searchList(string array[], int numElems, string value[])

{

        int index = 0; // Used as a subscript to search array

        int position = -1; // To record position of search value

        bool found = false; // Flag to indicate if the value was found

cout << "made it here" << endl;

        while (index < numElems && !found)

        {

                if (array[index] == value[]) // If the value is found

                {

                        found = true; // Set the flag

                        position = index; // Record the value's subscript

                }

                index++; // Go to the next element

        }

        return position; // Return the position, or -1

}

Re: Search string?
 

remove the brackets from the last parameter -- it should not be an array

int searchList(string array[], int numElems, string value);
