Homework

[Abbie Fortner]

Build a program that uses a single-dimension array to store 10 numbers input by a user. After inputting the numbers, the user should see a menu with two options to sort and print the 10 numbers in ascending or descending order.

This is what I have so far, and I'm stuck.

#include<stdio.h>
int main(void)
{
 int iNumbers[10];
 int iEntry=0;
 int x=0;
 
 printf("Enter 10 Numbers");
 
 for (x=0; x<=9; x++) {
  scanf("%d", &iNumbers[x]);
  }
  
 printf("\n\nAscending or Descending Order?");
 printf("\n1)\tAscending\n");
 printf("\n2)\tDescending\n");
 scanf("%d", &iEntry);
 
 for(x = 0; x<=9; x++)
  printf("%d", &iNumbers[x]);
 
 
}

Is this supposed to be C or C++? Your code is written in an entirely C style, but you posted in the C++ programming forum.

It must be C then.

The trick is to break down your problem into smaller pieces and solve them one at a time.

The very next step should be to determine what option the user selected. Do you know how to have your program make a decision? If the user enters 1, then simply print "You selected Ascending." If the user enters 2, then simply print "You selected Descending". You might also want a third branch telling the user if they entered an incorrect option.

This should be easy enough. Add this basic functionality to the code, post the update, then we can move on to the next piece if you need help from there.

Stark88: if you want to give the problem a try, by all means, but you should not post a spoonfeeding solution until the original poster has come close enough to a solution on his/her own.

If you are to print them in order, you'll need to atleast sort them .. heres a basic method
