2 Compile errors in my array program

Nov 22nd, 2005

Need help in finishing this problem. I was doign ok at first but somehow ran into 2 compile errors. Now I'm tired and going in circles. I need a fresh pair of eyes to look it over. This is my first time doing arrays.

could it be that infile and outfile are not defined? It would help if you posted the compile errors.

First off, I would suggest adding some tab characters "\t" instead of explicitly adding all the white spaces in. It makes your code really hard to read like it is.

I think that was part of my problem. Thanks... let me get back to it and figure the rest out. I wish I had taken better notes on arrays :o

At first I didnt know what you ment but I looked up \t's in my book. AWESOME... I did ask my teacher for an easier way besides spaces but he said for me to just use spaces. I'll surprise him with this program with tabs.

After this program, I'm gonna go back to easier examples and start again from the beginning over Thanksgiving break.

Spaces over tabs -- always.

"One of the methods used by statists to destroy capitalism consists in establishing controls that tie a given industry hand and foot, making it unable to solve its problems, then declaring that freedom has failed and stronger controls are necessary." --Ayn Rand
