Arrays

[SARAHCPS]

Your help would be much appreciated

I need to write a pseudocode (algorithm) for the following program definition:
Write a program to read an integer count (between 1 and 10) and then read count integer values to put into the array. For each value, call the inveriting function and put the inverting value into the second array of doubles. Then print out a report in two lines and count +1 columns to display the original and the inverted values and the largest value of each array in squared brackets.

[Prelude]

What part are you having trouble with? Note that you won't get much help if it looks like you're trying to get us to do it for you.

#include <stdio.h>

int
main(void)
{
	int i;
	 double a[];

        printf ("Enter ten interger values:");
		scanf ("%d", a);
		printf("\nOriginal Values: %d",&i[10]);

		for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
   {
        a[i] = 1 / i;
		printf("\nInversed Values: %d",&a[i]);
   }


return 0;

}

Don't you listen to your compiler? Your array 'a' has no size. Also, 'i' isn't an array, so you can't do what you're doing with it here:

printf("\nOriginal Values: %d",&i[10]);

Even if it was, you haven't actually put any values into it (which you can't, because it's not an array, but if you did...), so there's nothing to display there.

prompt for number to read, then read it into some variable
for counter = 0; counter < number you just read; counter++
    read a number into array[ counter ]

...do whatever else you are doing once you're done reading them in...

You have some indentation issues. Doesn't this look better:

#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
    int i;
    double a[];
    
    printf ("Enter ten interger values:");
    scanf ("%d", a);
    printf("\nOriginal Values: %d",&i[10]);

    for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
   {
         a[i] = 1 / i;
         printf("\nInversed Values: %d",&a[i]);
   }
   return 0;
}

Couple of questions:
1. Where is the pseudocode, I see actual code, with some errors .
2. Now, where in your program do you get input 10 times?

[SARAHCPS]

When I run this program below I get this error
c20 file does not end in a new line

#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
    int i;
    double a[11], counter;
    
    printf ("Enter ten interger values:");
    scanf ("%d", a[11]);
    printf("\nOriginal Values: %d",a[11]);

	for (counter = 0; counter <=10; counter++)

    for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
   {
         a[i] = 1 / i;
         printf("Inversed Values: %d",&a[i]);
   }
   return 0;
}

Just a wild guess here, but I expect the reason you get the error "file does not end in a new line" is because the file does not end in a new line. Make sure you hit enter after the final }

By the way, there are many other problems with your program:

- integer is spelled integer.
- Why are you trying to store integer values in an array of doubles?
- scanf can't magically put 10 integers into an array, you'd need to call scanf 10 times, or put 10 %d's in the format specifer
- ditto with regard to printf, use a loop.
- in your final printf, you don't need the &, but now I see why you need a double type, so you need to modify your initial scanf to write in doubles. Again, use a loop for each of the 10 values.

And this line

a[i] = 1 / i;

should have a double involved, like this:

a[i] = (double)1 / i;

Otherwise the end number is truncated.

[Prelude]

>a[i] = (double)1 / i;
What a waste of a cast. How about this instead:

a[i] = 1.0 / i;

[cwr]

Yes, except the OP more likely meant to use a[i] = 1 / a[i], in which case you would already have a double in the expression, since I suggested changing it to a double.

From the original post, they want to show the inverted values of the numbers entered, not the reciprocal of the numbers 1-9.

There are a few other minor errors, but I wanted the OP to think for themselves about the solution. For example, two arrays would be required, one for the original values, and one for the inverse, unless they just printed them on the fly.
