Program has stopped working problem.

Here is my entire code: This is not for any homework or anything, just messing around but can't spot this problem.

Code:

#include <stdio.h>

void displayMenu();
void fillArray(float array[], int n, int i);
//float computeMean(arguments here);
//float computeStandardDeviation(arguments here);
//float computeMode(arguments here);
//float computeRange(arguments here);
void restartProgram(char);

int main()
{
int n = 0;
int i = 0;
int input = 0;
int const MAX_DATA = 20;
int invalid = 1;
int temp = 1;
char var;

do
{

do
{
printf("Please give a number of inputs: ");
scanf("%d", &n);

if(n > 0 && n <= MAX_DATA)
{
invalid = 0;
}
else
{
printf("\nThat was a wrong choice. Please try again.\n\n");
}
}
while(invalid);

invalid = 1;

float data[n];
fillArray(data, n, i);
//displayMenu();

//do
//{

displayMenu();

do
{
printf("Please choose an operation: ");
scanf("%d", &input);

if(input > 0 && input < 6)
{
invalid = 0;
}
else
{
printf("\nThat was a wrong choice. Please try again.\n\n");
}
}while(invalid);

invalid = 1;

switch(input)
{
case 1:
//computeMean(arguments here);
//Print Here
break;
case 2:
//computeStandardDeviation(arguments here);
//Print Here
break;
case 3:
//computeMode(arguments here);
//Print Here
break;
case 4:
//computeRange(arguments here);
//Print Here
break;
case 5:
restartProgram(var);
break;
}

}while(1);

system("pause");
return 0;
}

void displayMenu()
{
printf("Statistical Calculator Menu:\n\n");
printf("(1) Mean\n");
printf("(2) Standard Deviation\n");
printf("(3) Mode\n");
printf("(4) Range\n");
printf("(5) Restart / Exit\n");
}

void fillArray(float data[], int n, int i)
{
for(i = 0; i < n; i++)
{
printf("Please enter input %d: ", i + 1);
scanf("%f", &data[i]);
}

printf("\nThank you.\n\n");
}

//float computeMean(arguments here){}

//float computeStandardDeviation(arguments here){}

//float computeMode(arguments here){}

//float computeRange(arguments here){}

void restartProgram(char answer)
{
printf("Would you like to enter another data set (Y/N)?: ");
scanf("%s", &answer);

switch(answer)
{
case 'Y': case 'y':
printf("Restarting Program...");
break;
case 'N': case 'n':
printf("\nExiting Program...\n\n");
system("pause");
exit(0);
break;
}
}

Input I have been using is:

3
1
2
3
5
y

I get Restarting Program... and then "Program has stopped working."

DON'T DELETE YOUR QUESTION!!! Just edit it (or make another post) saying you (think you) solved it.
My response relates to the code that used to be there....

Why do you pass i to fillArray? You're not using it as a parameter but as a local variable, so declare it as such (in fillArray) and remove it from the parameter list. You've made the same mistake with restartProgram. Don't use parameters as local variables!

Your use of the "invalid" flag is amateurish and error-prone and can be easily replaced like this:

Code:

    while (1)
    {
         printf("Please give a number of inputs: ");
         scanf("%d", &n);
         if(n > 0 && n <= MAX_DATA)
             break;
         else
             printf("\nThat was a wrong choice. Please try again.\n\n");
    }

And in restartProgram, you're using the string format to read a character (this is probably the source of your problem). Change the scanf to

Code:

scanf(" %c", &answer);  // note the space before %c (to eat the newline left by previous scanf's)

Can you say what was the problem because it can be useful for many

Also you had an unused variable temp
