passing arg 1 of `show_costs' makes pointer with integer without cast

Mar 8th, 2008

My online class just started into arrays, and I am getting this nasty error "passing arg 1 of `show_costs' makes pointer with integer without cast".

I have no idea what the problem is. If anyone would be so kinda, please help.

BTW: sorry, I have a habit of naming my variable an assortment of oddies.

Re: passing arg 1 of `show_costs' makes pointer with integer without cast

double show_costs(int n[], double c); first parameter is an array of integers

show_costs(log, vald); log is not an array of integers.

if(n[] < 5) incorrect syntax, there must be a subscript inside the []

In your show_costs() function ...
