Can someone tell me what i'm doing wrong:

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;


int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
	const int MAXGRADES = 5;
	int i, grade[MAXGRADES]= {0}, count = 0;
	double Avg, sum = 0;

	for (i=0; i < MAXGRADES; i++, count++)
	{
		cout << "Enter a grade: ";
		cin  >> grade[i];

    if (grade[i]<0)
{
    cout << "This is not a correct grade";
    break; 
 }
	}

	cout << endl;

	for (i=0; i < count; i++)
		cout << "grade " << i << " is " << grade[i] << endl;

	cout <<"\nThe sum of the grades";
	
	for (i=0; i < count; i++)
	{
		
		cout << "  " << grade[i];
		sum = sum + grade[i];
	}
	cout << " are " << sum << endl;

	if (count>0)
		Avg = sum / count;
	
	cout << endl << setw(5) << "The average is: " << Avg << endl;

	if (grade < Avg) // this line getting both errors
		cout << "*" << grade;

	return 0;
}

if ( grade < Avg ) // this line getting both errors

Let's see, grade is an array of ints and Avg is a double. A guess might be that you want to iterate through the array comparing each member to Avg, but C++ won't read your mind and create that code for you.

Depends on what you're trying to do, what it actually does, and what it's supposed to do.

Can someone tell me what i'm doing wrong:

Formatting for one.
Explaining nothing for two.
Not posting errors for three.
Read this for further help.

I have to output all the grades and have an * placed beside any grade that is less than the average. I think a for loop might work better. I came up with this but it doesn't give me any output. Suggestions as to what i'm doing wrong?

for (i=0; grade[i] < Avg; i++)
	{	
		cout << "*" << grade[i] << endl;
	}

God, can't you stick to one forum? I hate splitting my answers between cprog and Daniweb.
