Thread: Homework help

Ok so heres the idea. She gives us a specified input and output, and we have to create the program that reads in the 5 values into an array and sorts them to reach the output. Simple enough as we have done plenty of these, but i cant figure out this pattern. The program below works but we cant use direct assignments, how is she getting this output????

Input: 3, 15, 34, 21, 84
Output: 0, 100, 100, 100, 100

My code:

Code:

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

const int ARRAY_MAX = 5;

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
	int intArray[ARRAY_MAX];
	int temp;

	for (int i = 0; i < ARRAY_MAX; i++)
	{
		cout << "Enter an int value: ";
		cin >> intArray[i];
	}

	for (int j = 0; j < ARRAY_MAX; j++)
	{
		if (intArray[j] < 10)
		{
			intArray[j] = 0;
		}
		else
		{
			intArray[j] = 100;
		}

		cout << intArray[j] << endl;
	}



	return 0;
}

One solution is a set container.

All it's doing is taking the 5 numbers and printing 0 for each number lower than 10, and 100 for each number larger than or equal to 10.

um i know i wrote that code. But the code uses direct assignment. I cant have arrayvalue = 100 or = 0; i have to manipulate it.

She said theres a logical mathmatic solution, but guys i seriously cannot find it...any hints?

Code:

	for (int j = 0; j < ARRAY_MAX; j++)
	{
		while (intArray[j] < 10 && intArray[j]>0)
		{
			intArray[j]--;
		}
		while(intArray[j]>=10 && int Array<100)
		{
			intArray[j]++;
		}

		cout << intArray[j] << endl;
	}

thnx man.
