    Question reverse an array - help appreciated

    Hello,

    I'm trying to figure out to to print an array in reverse, but I'm hiving some troube with the for loop, I think. I might be somethng else, but I'm not sure. Can someone tell me what I've done wrong?

    Thanks,
    Vireyda

    (Parital code only)
    Code:
    #include <stdio.h>
    void Fill(int B[], int &num);
    void Dump(int C[], int num);
    void Reverse(int D[], int num);
    
    main()
    	{
    	int Array[10], n=0;
    	Fill(Array, n);
    	Dump(Array,n);
    	Reverse(Array, n);
    	}
    
    void Reverse(int D[], int num)
    	{
    	int i;
    	printf("The elements listed in reverse order are:\n");
    	for (i=num; i<0; --i)
    	printf("\t%d\n", D[i]);
    	}

    >> for (i=num; i<0; --i)

    "Initialize i to num; While i is less than 0 do loop; decrement i"

    So you want to execute the loop "while i is less than 0"?

    Also remember that when you declare an array of size 10, that means you can access elements 0 through 9, not 10.
