It's printing the address of where it was stored in the computer.

Say you had an array called x, and you wanted to print out x[0]. Right now, you are telling it to print out the address of where x[0] was stored on your computer. What you really want is it to print out the value.

If you post up your code, I can help you find the error.

I think that you are using pointers and you are printing the pointer and not its content.

For example, you may be doing this:

int* a = new int(5);
cout << a; //This prints 0xsomething...
cout << *a; //This prints 5
delete a;

Maybe you should do:

cout << (*(*array)[j]);

Or just:

cout << **array[j];

Or just a * on front of what you want to print is necessary.

That's the beauty and the shame of C++: the syntax!
