Thread: Help! Double-type array makes errors

In this program, I'm supposed to pull numerical data out of a file (which is arranged in rows and columns in the file), put it in a double array, and display the contents on the screen. Every time I try to declare a double-type array, I get a mysterious error message. Can someone tell me why? Here's my code:

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
ifstream infile;
double Acme_Calc[5][5], number;

infile.open("A:\\Cs122sales.txt");

infile.get(number);

while (! infile.fail())
{
for (int rows = 0; rows < 5; rows++);
{
for(int columns = 0; columns < 5; columns++);
{
infile.get(number);

Acme_Calc[rows][columns] = number;

cout << Acme_Calc[rows][columns];
}
}
}

infile.close();

return 0;
}

What error message are you getting?

What error message are you getting?

This may sound like a lamer suggestion; after all, i didn't compile the code u offered, but i've experienced all sorts of problems using namespace std. Try your code without namespace, add what you need to, and see if that works.

Good luck with it...

Oh, I see what I did wrong. I'm such a dork! Thanks a lot for the suggestions.
