Each user has a unique five-digit ID number.Whenever a user logs on, the users's ID,lab number,and the computer station number are transmitted to your system.For example,if the user 49193 logs onto station 2 in lab 3, then your sytem recieves(49193,2,3) as input data.Similarly,when a  user
logs off a station,then your system recieves the lab number and computer station number. write a computer program that could be used to track,by lab which user is logged onto which computer.

I need help with pointers and how to take the user input of id,lab,and station to update the output screen.

Look up use of code tags in the announcement section of this board and then repost your code.

Also clarify what this:

Similarly,when a&Acirc;&nbsp;&Acirc;&nbsp;user logs off a station

means.
