Thread: first year college student needs help!

i've talked to collegues. they say nothings wrong with the logic

HaHa -- blind leading the blind.

Code:

				if 
					(correctans=answer)
					printf("Correct.");
				    counter1++;
				else
					{

needs a few more braces -- and better coding style. Use == instead of = when boolean operator is intended.

Code:

				if (correctans == answer)
				{
					printf("Correct.");
				    counter1++;
				}
				else
				{
					if(correctans != answer) 
					{
					    printf("That is not correct, please try again.");
					    printf("\n\t\t\tWhat is %d times %d?: ",num,counter);
						scanf("%d",&answer);
					    correctans=num*counter;
					}

>>main()
Main returns an int

>>printf("\t\tYou have selected the %d times able.",num);
Being picky I know, but typo, should be table

>>if (correctans=answer)
That should be == when testing for equality; same problem on line 53

Your indentation is a bit all over the place which'll make it harder to follow; as far as I can see there's nothing wrong with the logic (I just scanned through the syntax, however).

EDIT: Damn you AD!
