As you get the input from user, you never update the quantity array.

And, that array should be set to all zeros when you declare it, otherwise you would be incrementing starting at random values.

ahmm if u dont mind boss can you put the corect code?.. i just want to know the exact code of mine...:D

Please stop calling us "boss". We aren't your boss.

To initialize the array to zeros: double qty[10] = {0.0}; But qty shouldn't be an array of ints instead of doubles, or are you allowed to buy fractions of sojmething?
