Thread: Puzzled

Hi again, I made a program that uses parallel arrays to print out flight numbers and transactions.
My problem is that when i compile it, it shows no errors, when i run it, the output window crashes.
here is my program:

Code:

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

int initialize(int [], int[], int);
void printBookings(int [], int [], int);
int findFlight( int [], int, int);

int main()
{
    ifstream trans;
    trans.open("trans.dat");
    int flightNo[20]; 
    int bookings[20];
    int read, type, flight, seat,number,i;
    read = 0;
    type = 0;
    flight = 0;
    seat = 0;
    initialize(flightNo, bookings, 20);
    printBookings(flightNo, bookings, 20);
    trans >> type >> flight>> seat;
    cout <<"Transactions"<<endl;
    while( type!= -1)
    { 
           if( type == 1)
           {
               if( findFlight(flightNo, 20, flight) != -1)
               {
               bookings[findFlight(flightNo, 20, flight)]+= seat;
               cout<< seat<< " "<< "seats booked on flight"<<" "<< flight<<endl;
               }
               else
               if( findFlight(flightNo, 20, flight) == -1)
               cout<<"Invalid Flight Number"<<endl;
           }
           else
           {
               if(type == 2)
               {
                       if(seat < bookings[findFlight(flightNo, 20, flight)])
                       {
                               bookings[findFlight(flightNo, 20, flight)]-= seat;
                               cout<< seat<<" "<<"seats cancelled from flight"<<" "<<flight<<endl;
                       }
                       else
                       if(seat > bookings[findFlight(flightNo, 20, flight)])
                       {
                               seat-= bookings[findFlight(flightNo, 20, flight)];
                               cout<<seat<< " "<<"seats were not cancelled"<<endl;
                       }
               }
               else
               cout<<"Invalid Transaction Type"<<endl;
               }
               trans >> type >> flight>> seat;
    }
    printBookings(flightNo, bookings, 20);
    system("pause");
    return 0;
}

int initialize(int flightNo[], int book[], int count)
{
    int read= 0;
    int i,number;
    ifstream flightnum;
    flightnum.open("flightnum.dat");
    flightnum>>number;
    while(number != -1)
    {
          flightNo[i] = number;
          flightnum>>number;
          read++;
    }
     for( i=0; i<count; i++)
     {
          book[i] = 0;
          read++;
     }
     return read;
 
}    
void printBookings(int flightNo[], int bookings[], int count)
{
     int i;
     cout << "Flight Numbers"<< "  "<<"Current Bookings"<< endl;
     for( i =1; i<count; i++)
          cout << flightNo[i] << "    "<< bookings[i]<<endl;
}
int findFlight( int flightNo[], int count, int num)
{
    int i, index=0;
    for(i = 0; i<count; i++)
    {
          if( flightNo[i] == num)
          return index;
          index++;
    }
    return -1;
}

it reads from 2 files:
1 157 200
2 302 150
1 673 300
1 211 50
1 358 100
3 673 10
2 358 400
2 673 250
5 412 150
1 266 40
3 409 0
1 673 75
1 358 500
3 412 0
2 157 400
1 409 300
2 358 200
-1 -1 -1

and

511
358
302
412
208
673
157
129
266
409
-1

i dont know why my screen keeps crashing

Thank You very much. That helped a lot. After the output started functioning properly, I made many modifications.
The program works just right now.
Thank You again for your help!

I'd like to ask - are you intending to write C or C++?

its for c++

Then for one thing, get rid of those arrays and use std::vector.
