error display when code runs

I'm going to chime in with a bug-detecting technique rather than point out the actual bug. One, initialize your arrays with some printable value that is not in either file, like 'X' (as opposed to A,B,C,D,F). You want to get a printout of printable characters. It's tough to debug when you get random non-printable characters in your printout. If your printout shows 'X' anywhere, it is likely because this initialization was not overwritten. Two, stick some debugging statements in your loops. You want to know how many times you are going through each loop, the loop counter variable, and the value read in. Add some cout statements to display this content. A quick way to do that is to add some #if statements, as below. Change the 0 in line 10 to 1 when debugging. Change it back to 0 when not debugging. When you turn the program in, delete those #if DEBUG_ON statements and the code within.
