Loops

[Unregistered]

I made a program that reads golf scores and pars from a file.
It then assigns the appropriate comment depending on the score.
Everything works fine, but I also need the sum of all the scores.
How do I use a loop to read the file again and add the scores and return their sum.
Any help would be appreciated
Thankyou

Without looking at the source it's a little difficult to help you out. Here is the syntax for a basic while loop.

while( condition ) // example: while( bDone == false )
{
     // Execute
     // These
     // Statements
}

Alternatively, if you know the exact number of iterations try a for loop.

for( variable x; condition; increment )
{
     // Do this
}

If you knew you wanted to loop 5 times you could do this. All this does is says while i is less than 5 keep executing code, and i++ simply increments the variable i AFTER the last line of code. If you want i to increment first, simply change i++ to ++i.

for( int i = 0; i < 5; i++ )
{
     // Foo
}

Hope this helped a little.
