Thread: Problem with conversion with stringstream ?

I am using rand() to put random numbers between 1 - 10 and then I am counting how many of each of these numbers that appeard.
After this I am converting them to std::string and finally I try to display for:
a0 and a1 wich counts the numbers 1 and 2 how many of these that appeard.

Strange thing here is that when displaying the answer in the MessgeBox I could get number like, 506 or 1321564 or 477610 etc...
At maximum it should display 20 as this is the count of numbers that I put in vector FirstNumbers ?
I really wonder what I am missing out ?

Code:

//Declare variables
std::vector<int> FirstNumbers;
int RandomNumber = 0;
int Num0,Num1,Num2,Num3,Num4,Num5,Num6,Num7,Num8,Num9,Num10,Num11,Num12,Num13,Num14,Num15,Num16,Num17,Num18,Num118,Num19,Num20;
std::string a0,a1,a2,a3,a4,a5,a6,a7,a8,a9,b10,b11,b12,b13,b14,b15,b16,b17,b18,b19;
			
//Put Random Numbers beween 0-10 to vector
for( int i = 0; i < 20; i++)
{
	 RandomNumber = rand() &#37; 10; //1 - 10 Random
	 FirstNumbers.push_back(RandomNumber);
}
	
 /*...........................................................................................*/


//Count how many appearences of each Number
for( std::vector<int>::iterator it = FirstNumbers.begin(); it != FirstNumbers.end(); it++)
{					
int Dummy5 = *it;
//Count Numbers;
if(Dummy5 == 0){Num0 = Num0+1;}if(Dummy5 == 1){Num1 = Num1+1;}if(Dummy5 == 2){Num2 = Num2+1;}if(Dummy5 == 3){Num3 = Num3+1;}if(Dummy5 == 4){Num4 = Num4+1;}
if(Dummy5 == 5){Num5 = Num5+1;}if(Dummy5 == 6){Num6 = Num6+1;}if(Dummy5 == 7){Num7= Num7+1;}if(Dummy5 == 8){Num8 = Num8+1;}if(Dummy5 == 9){Num9 = Num9+1;}
if(Dummy5 == 10){Num10 = Num10+1;}if(Dummy5 == 11){Num11 = Num11+1;}if(Dummy5 == 12){Num12 = Num12+1;}if(Dummy5 == 13){Num13 = Num13+1;}if(Dummy5 == 14){Num14 = Num14+1;}
if(Dummy5 == 15){Num15 = Num15+1;}if(Dummy5 == 16){Num16 = Num16+1;}if(Dummy5 == 17){Num17 = Num17+1;}if(Dummy5 == 18){Num18 = Num18+1;}if(Dummy5 == 19){Num19 = Num19+1;}if(Dummy5 == 20){Num20 = Num20+1;}
}

Oh my goodness. Use arrays, dude. Use arrays!

It looks like the variables are all uninitialized...

That was about, what 100 lines reduced to about... 8? Arrays really do work wonders, do they not?
And thankfully, vectors initialized its elements to 0. Lucky for you.
Unlucky for you when you thought ints would, too.
