Thread: Small problem with printing elements of an array

OK I'm horrible at this so bear with me. The user is supposed to enter a bunch of numbers that get stored in an array. Then it uses a function to print the elements of the array. I don't knwo how to set up the function parameters or whatever to get it to work but i'm pretty sure it should work other than that. Here's what I've got:

Code:

#include <stdio.h>


void printset(int [], int);

int main()
{
	int i = 0, a[25] = {0};

	printf("elements in array are:\n");
	for(i=0;i<25;i++)
	{
		scanf("%d",&a[i]);
		 

	
	}
printset();
return 0;

}
	void printset(int b[25], int i)
	{int i;
 for (i=0;i<25;i++)
 {

	printf("{%d, ",b[i]);
	printf(" }\n");

	
	
	}
	
	
}

well i think i figured it out, but now i need some more help. This is it so far.

Code:

#include <stdio.h>


void printset(int [] );

int main()
{
	int i = 0, a[25] = {0};

	printf("elements in array are:\n");
	for(i=0;i<25;i++)
	{
		scanf("%d",&a[i]);
		 

	
	}
printset(a);
return 0;

}
	void printset(int a[])
	{int i;
	printf("{");
 for (i=0;i<25;i++)
 {

	printf("%d, ",a[i]);


	
	
	}
	
		printf(" }\n");
}

now how would i go about making it so the user doesn't HAVE to enter 25 numbers...just somewhere between 0 and 25?

Your formatting is horrible

Well, you could ask the user to enter a negative number when he or she is done inputing the other numbers.

i'll do that

i know my formatting is horrible this is just a rough draft i'm trying to get done quickly....I don't really care. Now my computer decided to crash and visual C++ is being worthless and i can't use it anymore so i'm screwed since my assignment is due in 15 minutes.

ok, maybe im just missing it, but is there anywhere in this code where youre acutally having your user enter numbers? I could just be overlooking it, but...

Code:

	for(i=0;i<5;i++)
	{
		scanf("%d",&a[i]);
		 

	
	}
