Step backwards? You mean to say C# is better than C? How so? If you feel C will be less restrictive than C#, sounds like a step forward to me. I agree with your decision - it seems like a good one to me.

1) Move the OutputData() function above addMoney() 2) Add prototypes (look it up) of your functions at the top of the program

[url=http://www.gidnetwork.com/b-38.html]Format[/url] your code so it can be read and followed easily by others. You calculated the values in the functions but never returned them. [edit]Sorry, your formatting caused me to misread the code. See?[/edit]

Use arrays for the strings.

We can't understand what this is supposed to do either. There is no useful context.

Try using an array [iCODE]team Team[8][/iCODE] to make you coding easier and more compact. You won't need that godawful nested IF structure.

Look up function similar to [I]findfirstfile()[/I] and [I]findnextfile()[/I] for your compiler.

I don't see any down-reps for you in the past month. All + rep back to June 10, where you must have been doing something people didn't like. On the other hand [I]you[/I] have been giving bad rep to a bunch of members in a Geek's Lounge thread.

Get string length. Start at the end of the string. If character is a SPACE, back up 1 character and repeat When the character is not a SPACE change the next char (the last SPACE seen) to \0

Compare them one by one. Count how many times there is a mismatch. If it's two or less, there's only one different value.

Start by learning C++. Get the basics down and then this will be easy.

Of course. Delete the node you are pointing to. The question doesn't say you need to clean up the next-pointer in the previous node, which you can't do, but too bad. Stupid requirements cause problems.

SO what do you want included in the loop? Point to the line that needs to be inside to loop that isn't already. Finish your do-while loop. In fact, start over. Get the program running in small pieces, stop trying to write the whole thing and clean up the problems …

You're going to have to contact the author of the code and get a copy of [I]inputs.h[/I] from him. And that's not a prototype. It's an include file. If the code really came out of the book, the include file is there, too.

1) until you completely understand how paths work in relation to your IDE vs Program, use the full path. 2) You don't check to see if the file was opened. It probably was, just not where you expected. Always error check after anything that might not work.

Because, obviously, you did it wrong. Don't you think that showing us what you tried to do would give us some helpful information? This is not the Psychic Programmer's Forum.
