I got the questionairre problem.

I was trying to fill the answers from the 20 questions and output the file as results.txt, but it only shows the answers of 19 questions.

And when I fill up all the answers, the total score shows 0.

The scores for each question (except q4, q8, q12, and q16):
0 - not at all
1 - a little
2 - some
3 - a lot

The scores for q4, q8, q12, and q16:
3 - not at all
2 - a little
1 - some
0 - a lot

return naa, aL, S, aLot;

You can only return ONE value. Just ONE.

As it happens, you're not even using the returned value.

You need to learn about the following:

returning values from functions
passing by reference

To continue on Moschops post, the only way to return multiple values from a function is to put them in a structure or object, and then return that. This will require modifying the signature of the function accordingly.
