Size of Array, user inputted..

You did not initialise amount, presumably to 0.

You never initialized the variable amount.
Domething like this would do the trick

Code:

---

int amount = 0;            //The amount the number was found

Number? 12
Number? 23
Number? 45
Number? 4332432141
Number? 34
Number? 23
Number? 12
Number? 9
Number? 2332432145254325325
What number do you wish to search for?: 23
The number 23 appeared 2 times.

Thanks everyone! It's working correctly.. =)

That's good :)
Now, as hk_mp5kpdw hinted, you can actually use a function, count(), from <algorithm>, and thus replace:

Code:

---

for (counterfind = 0; counterfind < length; ++counterfind)
        {
        if(list[counterfind] == number)
                {
                ++amount;
                }
        }

std::cout << "The number " << number << " appeared " << amount << " times. \n";

---

with:

Code:

---

std::cout << "The number " << number << " appeared "
          << std::count(list, list + length, number)
          << " times. \n";

---

Of course, that's good knowledge to remember along with vector for after you submit your assignment, since it is unlikely that such code would be appropriate to use there.
