    C Programming - Dynamically Populate an array of numbers and get the average

    Hi All,

    Have a school assignment to pick up an undefined set of numbers (could be 3, or 10 or 5), store them and set the average of whatever I get. I would prompt for user input asking how many numbers the user will input, then, get these numbers, store them in an array and access the array with a sum.
    Any ideas?
    Oh, yeah...first time working with C.
    Tks in advance.

    Search the board for "malloc" and you'll find lots of examples.
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
