Question about functions

Hi! My program finds the average & mode of a set of 6 integers. It's all under main. See?

PHP Code:


#include<stdio.h>



int main()

{

    int temp[6], i, avg, mode;





    printf("Enter 6 integers: *REMEMBER TO PRESS ENTER BETWEEN EACH INTEGER!* ");

    for(i=0; i<6; i++){

        scanf("%d", &temp[i]);



    }



    /*average*/



    avg = 0;

    for(i=0; i<6; i++){

        avg = avg+temp[i];}

    printf("Average temperature: %d\n", avg/6);





               /*mode*/

        for(i=0; i<6; i++){

        if(temp[i]== temp[i+1]){

            mode=temp[i];

            }

        else{

            mode=0;}

    }



    printf("Mode is: %d\n", mode);

    return 0;

    }

Could anyone show me I can make the average & mode 2 separate functions?

Thanks!!!

I'd say something along this line.

Code:

#include <stdio.h>

double mean(const int *array, size_t size)
{
   double sum = 0;
   size_t i;
   for ( i = 0; i < size; ++i )
   {
      sum += array[i];
   }
   return sum / size;
}

int main(void)
{
   int data[] = {10,21,32,43,54,65};
   double average = mean(data, sizeof data / sizeof *data);
   printf("average = %g\n", average);
   return 0;
}

/* my output
average = 37.5
*/

You may want to hold off on the functions for a bit, and double check your mode code.
