hi. i have a program that i am having some troubles with. if anyone could give me any suggestions, it would be greatly appreciated! : )

i have to edit the main some more to get this to actually work. and i also have to add info into the function.

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

using namespace std;

const int MAXIMUM = 100;

// YOUR FUNCTION HERE
int findMe ()
{
}

int main ()
{
	string names[MAXIMUM];
	double score[MAXIMUM];

	for (int x = 0; x < MAXIMUM; x++)
	{
		cout << "Please enter a student name (Enter a blank to stop): ";
		getline(cin, names[x]);
		cout << "Please enter this student's score: ";
		cin >> score[x];
		cin.ignore();
	}

	cout << endl << "*****************" << endl;

	while (true)
	{
		string lookmeup;
		double tmpscore;
		cout << "Enter a name to look up: ";
		getline(cin, lookmeup);
		if (findMe(lookmeup, names, score, tmpscore))
			cout << lookmeup << " has a score of " << tmpscore << endl;
		else
			cout << lookmeup << " was not found." << endl;
	}
}

HERE IS SOME SAMPLE OUTPUT:

Please enter a student name (Enter a blank to stop): Adam
Please enter this student's score: 11.11
Please enter a student name (Enter a blank to stop): Betty
Please enter this student's score: 22.22
Please enter a student name (Enter a blank to stop): Charlie
Please enter this student's score: 33.33
Please enter a student name (Enter a blank to stop): Debbie
Please enter this student's score: 44.44
Please enter a student name (Enter a blank to stop): Elaine
Please enter this student's score: 55.55
Please enter a student name (Enter a blank to stop):

*****************
Enter a name to look up: Adam
Adam has a score of 11.11
Enter a name to look up: Elaine
Elaine has a score of 55.55
Enter a name to look up: Bob
Bob was not found.
Enter a name to look up: Charlie

Press any key to continue . . .

what part of findMe () don't you know how to code ? Look at this line and you will see what parameters it needs to have. All parameters should be passed by reference. if (findMe(lookmeup, names, score, tmpscore))
