    Question Printing average score and the count

    Hello am new in the game and am somehow stuck, I cant get the "avgScore" and the "ctr" right. can someone pliz tell me where am going wrong.
    Code:
        int IdNum,J1,J2,J3,ctr,e;
        float totalScore,avgScore,total;
        FILE *payInFile, *payOutFile;
        payInFile=fopen("dataIn.txt","r");
        payOutFile=fopen("dataOut.txt","w");
        fprintf(payOutFile,"\n Candidate Results\n");
        fprintf(payOutFile,"IdNum J1   J2    J3    totalScore \n");
        ctr=0;
        total=0;
        e=fscanf(payInFile, "%1d %1d %1d %1d", &IdNum, &J1, &J2, &J3);
        while(e==5)
      
                {  
                 totalScore = J1+J2+J3;
                 fprintf(payOutFile,"%d     %d     %d     %d    %3.1f\n", 
                 IdNum ,J1 ,J2 ,J3 ,totalScore);
                 ctr=ctr+1;  
                 total = total + totalScore;    
                 
                 e=fscanf(payInFile, "%1d %1d %1d %1d", &IdNum, &J1, &J2, &J3);
                 
                }
        avgScore = totalScore / ctr; 
        fprintf(payOutFile, "ctr = %2f and avgScore is %2.2f \n",ctr,avgScore);
    
        fclose(payInFile);
        fclose(payOutFile);
              system("pause");
      } //end program

    You can use this Data

    IdNum J1 J2 J3
    6 3 2 4
    5 2 3 3
    4 5 2 4
    3 4 5 4
    2 3 2 3
    1 2 3 2

    You need to display ctr as an int, not a float. For starters fix line 24 then see if there are still problems.
