How to search an array for certain numbers and count them.

**jaja009** · 03-12-2010

Hey guys, just like the title says, I'm having a little trouble getting my program to search an array for certain numbers and count them up.
(Note, yes, our assignment has that many integers for the array. XD )

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main(void)

{
	int data[1000] = {9, 71, 39, 97, 91, 61, 95, 17, 55, 55, 17, 48, 78, 9, 28, 34, 64, 44, 14, 73, 38, 33, 90, 83, 21, 54, 42, 94, 7, 1, 0, 66, 13, 41, 28, 44, 99, 47, 22, 68, 70, 50, 32, 12, 53, 31, 28, 49, 11, 62, 36, 90, 67, 6, 29, 85, 80, 61, 87, 15, 64, 64, 79, 95, 84, 77, 92, 27, 35, 21, 97, 82, 7, 86, 5, 70, 63, 14, 75, 3, 96, 63, 46, 44, 78, 65, 69, 39, 18, 58, 71, 78, 99, 97, 26, 62, 52, 56, 58, 71, 75, 50, 70, 20, 70, 2, 51, 82, 33, 26, 3, 90, 56, 3, 11, 95, 0, 51, 2, 44, 57, 64, 62, 35, 86, 0, 34, 43, 63, 80, 89, 79, 98, 8, 17, 62, 56, 51, 62, 48, 59, 88, 89, 93, 9, 65, 38, 38, 30, 26, 40, 59, 86, 94, 18, 82, 6, 2, 93, 0, 26, 80, 20, 7, 30, 97, 70, 96, 24, 7, 51, 10, 7, 35, 78, 13, 61, 46, 18, 58, 79, 72, 68, 11, 51, 31, 63, 84, 8, 21, 69, 36, 15, 64, 88, 10, 31, 42, 98, 92, 77, 45, 72, 75, 96, 62, 90, 71, 42, 33, 53, 64, 53, 65, 17, 40, 89, 80, 52, 12, 6, 93, 38, 27, 91, 21, 3, 83, 93, 56, 34, 79, 1, 43, 79, 97, 66, 50, 42, 31, 72, 6, 94, 75, 60, 58, 74, 20, 5, 90, 58, 65, 76, 49, 28, 63, 5, 40, 84, 93, 21, 72, 39, 93, 60, 27, 45, 35, 45, 39, 2, 65, 2, 45, 91, 84, 12, 17, 22, 53, 51, 53, 51, 3, 70, 36, 33, 74, 68, 24, 25, 10, 86, 45, 60, 65, 71, 70, 78, 99, 74, 65, 60, 12, 89, 19, 5, 57, 56, 17, 57, 47, 32, 47, 56, 83, 91, 27, 82, 2, 31, 21, 35, 80, 89, 51, 92, 85, 64, 20, 0, 51, 69, 87, 10, 98, 45, 88, 31, 89, 0, 82, 24, 67, 62, 31, 47, 52, 43, 65, 55, 13, 99, 35, 5, 60, 28, 42, 36, 64, 27, 3, 45, 56, 46, 94, 26, 26, 87, 29, 73, 79, 91, 5, 63, 23, 77, 96, 18, 15, 13, 8, 70, 20, 63, 99, 36, 32, 41, 31, 48, 49, 1, 12, 44, 66, 28, 38, 34, 79, 92, 91, 68, 0, 60, 57, 78, 43, 40, 74, 75, 84, 21, 45, 0, 62, 98, 64, 68, 77, 27, 70, 85, 54, 9, 31, 66, 2, 95, 38, 73, 5, 55, 62, 13, 81, 73, 60, 54, 83, 34, 84, 20, 80, 84, 79, 29, 94, 57, 84, 70, 65, 25, 25, 60, 34, 17, 83, 81, 19, 44, 80, 36, 20, 47, 21, 12, 58, 84, 9, 99, 68, 98, 34, 28, 71, 40, 78, 9, 84, 52, 47, 38, 79, 20, 53, 74, 46, 55, 13, 85, 96, 18, 13, 1, 67, 78, 19, 76, 27, 82, 5, 52, 34, 83, 78, 43, 12, 16, 55, 31, 97, 8, 60, 94, 48, 61, 94, 12, 4, 44, 85, 64, 92, 50, 40, 39, 1, 48, 30, 81, 71, 45, 79, 98, 81, 38, 24, 14, 93, 98, 39, 93, 6, 53, 66, 60, 23, 83, 64, 15, 38, 50, 62, 71, 9, 79, 2, 96, 87, 50, 88, 76, 14, 7, 14, 18, 7, 92, 81, 71, 34, 37, 59, 78, 90, 56, 52, 13, 76, 37, 22, 44, 81, 35, 66, 60, 86, 6, 20, 88, 63, 24, 21, 22, 67, 81, 86, 50, 81, 93, 29, 39, 12, 15, 45, 68, 44, 73, 9, 54, 63, 28, 97, 29, 19, 9, 80, 41, 41, 42, 33, 55, 14, 68, 75, 98, 89, 93, 53, 22, 47, 53, 49, 78, 85, 36, 17, 65, 82, 73, 56, 31, 27, 13, 14, 67, 2, 61, 24, 6, 26, 87, 7, 39, 41, 95, 36, 94, 49, 92, 49, 44, 45, 22, 30, 91, 70, 92, 8, 26, 14, 0, 72, 23, 29, 50, 44, 92, 30, 6, 87, 89, 45, 58, 10, 47, 49, 26, 87, 83, 1, 59, 53, 53, 8, 53, 65, 31, 49, 71, 12, 54, 4, 29, 98, 33, 71, 78, 30, 76, 36, 26, 60, 28, 89, 32, 54, 54, 65, 73, 57, 78, 35, 24, 70, 10, 37, 99, 82, 62, 6, 82, 11, 87, 46, 38, 76, 91, 25, 64, 37, 42, 90, 87, 99, 83, 12, 89, 42, 26, 24, 4, 66, 73, 82, 44, 93, 82, 80, 2, 94, 84, 63, 21, 3, 62, 49, 24, 38, 90, 22, 70, 66, 21, 57, 89, 14, 4, 71, 33, 13, 35, 55, 68, 1, 48, 3, 34, 59, 55, 66, 12, 87, 48, 60, 14, 91, 62, 96, 83, 27, 18, 70, 16, 99, 54, 1, 37, 26, 83, 36, 98, 53, 52, 1, 78, 12, 12, 35, 51, 9, 8, 62, 84, 15, 39, 24, 9, 93, 97, 53, 75, 17, 93, 21, 32, 88, 5, 61, 1, 52, 91, 83, 68, 52, 3, 62, 21, 25, 37, 33, 74, 27, 97, 25, 46, 58, 7, 79, 62, 68, 20, 69, 16, 0, 53, 35, 94, 12, 51, 85, 37, 43, 74, 9, 65, 77, 75, 11, 21, 76, 33, 96, 51, 80, 8, 51, 89, 14, 0, 20, 96, 93, 64, 69, 33, 7, 96, 55, 42, 88, 87, 42, 62, 15, 54, 19, 81, 75, 26, 32, 26, 89, 65, 27, 22, 73, 31, 35, 72, 53, 37, 81, 50, 31, 32, 27, 0, 48, 31, 3, 73, 37, 74, 19, 80, 19, 73, 59, 64, 19, 80, 41, 15, 54, 12, 78, 93, 92, 42, 79, 10, 55, 79, 62, 55, 92, 33, 11, 97, 27, 88, 62, 80, 48, 96, 76, 51, 9, 59, 36, 30, 34, 10, 35, 35, 92, 89, 90, 20, 65, 22, 15, 50, 69, 46, 48, 49, 81, 6, 94, 94, 27, 92, 67, 72, 87, 26, 12};
	int n, count=0;


	do{
		printf("Enter an integer in the range of 0 to 99, inclusive: ");
		scanf("%d", &n);
		
		

		}
	while (n < 100);

	if (n > 100)
		printf("The number is greater than 99, please enter a new one. \n");


}

Can someone help me? I tried different if statements, but I dont think I'm using the right conditional.

**UltraKing227** · 03-12-2010

first, make another integer variable called NumberOfInts. next, make a FOR loop.
with count containing zero and increasing until reaching 999. instead that loop,
make an if condition which checks whether data[count] is equal to N or not. if it
is, increase the NumberOfInts by one. then, after the loop, make a Printf
statement that says

"the number you typed has %d matches."

for the %d you need to put in parameter NumberOfInts.

Thanks for the help Ultraking, but I dont think I did it correctly, have a look:

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main(void)

{

first off, make a new variable (int) named count. instead of increasing intcount,
raise count (not intcount) instead.

second, declare your variables outside int main().

third, replace intcount with count.

if you dont get what i said, here is the code:

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

Ok, I've tried that, but for some reason, the count is giving me 1000. Its detecting how many variables are in the array but arent specifically counting the ones that are inputted as &n. I changed the "integercount" to simply "count" like you added, but I'm still getting the wrong count.

Sure it is :

Code:

int data[1000]
.
.
if( data[1000] == n)

Code:

if( data[1000] == n)

What do you think this line of code is doing?

i will tell you. it is used to see if element 1000 of array data is
equal to N (input) or not. however, there is a mistake in here.
1000 is static, so if you type, lets say, twelve. you will get no
results since that the end of the array is not 12 but some other
number while before it are twelves. anyway, data[1000] should
be data[count]...

btw, jaja, listen carefully. IntCount and Count should be seperate, you
should NOT rename these instead of making new ones. try the code i
gave you two posts above and you will get what i meant. if it gives you
always 1000, its because you are giving the %d parameter to count.

here is the algorithm (not code):

Code:

Load Libraries
Setup Variables And Arrays

Start Main Function
  Start DO Loop
   Get Input
    Start FOR Loop with count set to zero and loop to 999
     Is Data[count] equal to N? if so then increase IntCount 
    Continue FOR Loop
   Display IntCount
  Continue While n is less than 100
End Main Function

is it clear now?

actually it checks the element 1001 and thus the array has only 1000 elements indexed rom 0 to 999 - it actually is out of bounds access
