    Please post your code even it does not compile, then we could help.

    You can use bubble sort or quick sort algorithm to find highest GPA of students.

    and don't demand instant help. We're not here at your beg and call to command as your personal slaves.
    Ask nicely and you'll find lots more sympathy.

    If all you need is the highest you could just search through, keep track of the highest. If the new one is higher than the current one.

    jwenting i did not demand instant help. I said as soon as possible. I asked nicely saying please at least twice. I did not ask you to write huge chunks of code for me or anything i just wanted to know what the best way to do something was. So next time if you have a problem with something keep it to yourself.

    Enough already.

    C++angel, help comes when you post some code (ie, real effort), not just copy/pasting your assignment.
    When you can do this, post your code and question in another thread.
