    Another Pointer

    Can someone please tell what I am doing wrong with this pointer. I keep getting error message undeclared itdentifier. found int expected point to int.

    Code:
    void Gen2Rand (int*r1p, int*r2p)
    
    		int r1; //First random number
    		int r2; //Second random number
    
    		r1 = 2 + rand() % 11;
    		r2 = 2 + rand() % 11;
    
    	              *r1p = r1;
    	              *r2p = r2;
    
    return (0);

    I assume you just didn't copy the brackets that enclose the function...

    You do have spaces (int*r1p, int*r2p) in between the ints and the pointer names, right?

    Edit: Also, it's a void function, so you shouldn't be returning an integer.

    Thanks, but I have the program complete. My mind went blank for a minute.

    The compiler does not care about that, actually.
