reading int array from file
I am trying to read an unknown number of integer test scores from a file into an array. None of the input is > 100, but i keep getting garbage like -32451 and such. Almost like reading the wrong data type or something.
int count = 1;
FILE *fin;
fin = fopen ( "lab06.dat", "r" );
while ( fscanf ( fin, "%d", numbers[count] ) != EOF )
count ++;
return ( count );
thanks.
I'm surprised it isn't falling over in a big heap
numbers[count]
should be
&numbers[count]
> int count = 1;
And arrays start at 0
If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
Thanks. I thought it was prolly something simple.
The instructor wanted this array to strt at 1 to make formatting the output easier, but thanks for that too.
