Loop skip problem

Hi guys

I am having a problem with a peice of code. The program compiles ok ( I do get a warning about a mis-match '<' type in the for loop ).

Basically, I am trying to read in 10 scores per student, calculate the average and pass it to a vector. Now, this all seems to be working fine, but when I have read in the final grade for the first student, it terminates with no reason ( I get no seg-fault error so it isnt that ) and doesnt go to the next student.

Here is my code

Code:

// function to input 10 test scores and calculate
// the average of the scores per student
void GradeBook::inputGrades( const std::vector<std::string> &rStuNm )
{
	int counter = 1;
	int totalScore = 0;
	int result = 0;
	double average = 0;

	// read in 10 scores per student
	for ( int i = 0; i < rStuNm.size(); )
	{
		while ( counter <= 10 )
		{
			std::cout << "Enter grade[ " << counter << " ] for student "
					  << rStuNm[ i ] << " : ";
			std::cin >> result;

			totalScore += result;
			counter++;
		}
		
		// calculate the average for this student
		average = totalScore / counter;
		
		// place claculated average in vector
		m_AverageOfResults.push_back ( average );

		// goto the next student
		i++; // THIS IS NOT BEING READ?
	}
}

Oh, and the constructor is:

Code:

GradeBook::GradeBook ( std::string name ) :
	m_Students ( m_MAX_VECTOR, "" ),
	m_AverageOfResults ( m_MAX_VECTOR, 0 ),
	m_LetterGrade ( m_MAX_VECTOR, '\0' ),
	m_CourseTaken ( m_MAX_VECTOR, "" ) ...

In case the helps. MAX_VECTOR has a value of 10 btw

Any help appreiciatred. It looks like somthing very simple I am doing wrong.

You are going over the limit of your vector:

Code:

while ( counter <= 10 )

will allow the loop to continue until counter == 11, which causes the vector to overrun.

I would also like to change your multiple vectors: Why not have a single vector of

Code:

struct GradeRecord
{
    std::string name;
    double AverageOfResults;
    char LetterGrade;
    std::string CourseTaken;
}

Why are you incrementing the loop counter in the body of the loop?

And medievalelks comments made me look again on the code - you won't ever read the second students grades. You may want to use a traditional for-loop for that too.
