I have found out through the compiler that you cannot declare and initialize an array within a class header file. I was trying to figure out how I might go about getting a 5 by 14 array initialized as a private mamber within the class. I have included the header file and the class cpp file, neither are in full working form, but you should be able to get the idea about what i am trying to accomplish. thanks for taking a look.

// vend cpp file



#include <iostream>

using std::cout

#include "vend.h"

Vend::Vend( int nv, int dv, int qv, int lv, int qtyv, int fsmv, int cstatev )
{

	nickles  = nv;
	dimes    = dv;
	quarters = qv;
	dollars  = lv;
	qty      = qtyv;
	cstate   = cstatev;
	fsm      = fsmv;

}


void Vend::setNickle( int nv )
{
	nickles = nv;
}

void Vend::setDime( int dv )
{
	dimes = dv;
}

void Vend::setQuarter( int qv )
{
	quarters = qv;
}

void Vend::setDollar( int lv )
{
	dollars = lv
}

void Vend::setQty( int qtyv )
{
	qty = qtyv;
}

void Vend::setCstate( int cstatev )
{
	cstate = cstatev;
}

void Vend::setFsm( int fsmv )
{
	fsm = fsmv;
}

int Vend::getNickle()
{
	return nickles;
}

int Vend::getDime()

	return dimes;
}

int Vend::getQuarter()
{
	return quarters;

int  Vend::bank_amt()
{

	return dollars * $dollar + quarters * $quarter + dimes * $dime + nickles * $nickle;
}











void Vend::accept_money( unsigned amt )
{
	if (amt == $nickle || amt == $dime || amt == $quarter || amt == $dollar)

you cannot declare and initialize an array in header file.but u can crate as many as u want object of any class member in your .c++ file so using this u can create run time array. think on this

All you have to do is move or more specifically code appropriately in Vend::Vend (default constructor) the values you want in fasm. This is how variables are initialized in a class, like int value [1][2] = {4, 8}; would be too code.
