Hi,

I'm trying to run this short code and when it prints out i get about 20 of these "pow: DOMAIN error" messages, and then my results. Can anyone shed any light on this. I'm not acutally a programer, but got thrust into this in a project for another class, so I'm extremely clueless. I think it might have something to do with the output file. I don't really know what that is, and I don't even know if what I have in there is legitimate.

Thanks!

The pow functions compute x raised to the power y. A domain error occurs if x is finite and negative and y is finite and not an integer value. A domain error may occur if x is zero and y is less than or equal to zero. A range error may occur.

for ( int i=0; i <= nvar; i++ )
{
	 for ( int j=0; j <= nmom; j++ )

You should really learn how to index arrays properly. The usual idiom is as follows.

double array[3][4];
for(int i = 0; i < 3; ++i)
{
   for(int j = 0; j < 4; ++j)
   {
	 /* ... */
   }
}

That is, an array of size N may be indexed from 0 to N-1.
