Array Help!!!!

This is my code. It is a two Dimensional Array.
The program reads in 25 numbers from a data file then is supposted to sort them. All the code is simple, I used all the code in another program that does a one Dimensional Array. I am new to C++ so any help would be VERY VERYN Greatful.
The numbers are 1 thru 25 in random order
:confused:

Code:

---

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


int main()

{

//Array used in this program.

        int array[5][5];
        int x;
        int y;
        int numin;
        int temp;

//File read in and use.

        fstream fin ("random numbers.txt");

        for (x = 0; x < 5; x++)
       
                for(y = 0; y < 5; y++)
                {
                        fin >> numin;
                        array[x][y] = numin;
                }

//Loop; sort array and print to screen

        x = 0;

        while (x < 5)

        if (array[x][y] < array[x+1][y-1])
        {
        temp = array[x+1][y-1] ;
        array[x+1][y-1] = array[x][y];
        temp = array[x+1][y-1];
        array[x][y] = temp;
        }
               
        else
        {
                x++; y++;
                cout<<"["<<x<<"]" "["<<y<<"]" << " "; 
                  cout << "\n";
        }
               
//Write to a file.

        fstream fout("sorted.txt");
        fout <<" sorted: ";
                                               
        return 0;
}

When make posts for help remember to say what the problem is.

Sorry Everyone. the problem with this program is that when I complie it, it only sort's 1 - 10, and not all 25 numbers in the data file. I used a while loop in the first program and just copied the first program over into this one, then added the additional [y] and the for loop for ( y = 0; y < 5; y++0 ). If you do a array[x+1][y+1] in the while loop when you complie it nothing happens, but if you change it to array[x+1][y-1] throughout the whole while loop it complies only 1 thru 10. I've have been stuck on tis for about a week and I have tried and asked everyone I know and know one has any answers. Please Help me if you all can.

In your sorting section, y starts off as 5 because that was its value when you finished reading in data.

Not sure I know what you mean " In your sorting section, y starts off as 5 because that was its value when you finished reading in data."

1) What value do you want y to be when you start sorting?

2) Is y a variable that was used earlier in your program?

3) If y is a variable that you used earlier in your program, what value does y have just before you start sorting?

I would like y to be set to zero when I start sorting.

Y is a new variable I added to this program, the first program uses only x variable

I am steping through the program now, when I go into my while loop

array[x+1][y-1] = 10

array[x][y] = 6

x = 0

y = 5

I need a different loop for my sorting to work, but I can not figure one out.

When I step through my program it starts my while loop with the above post and then skips through it until it goes around 10 times.

Your utmost concentration is needed when answering these questions. I am not asking about some hypothetical program you wrote last week. I am asking you about the program you posted.

2) Is y a variable that was used earlier in your program(i.e. before you started sorting)?

3) If y is a variable that you used earlier in your program, what value does y have just before you start sorting?

4) Why did you assign 0 to x right before you started sorting?

y is a new variable

the value of y is 5 before i start sorting

I don't know why I assigned 0 to x before i start sorting, it just works like I said I'm new a this and just need a little help from someone who knows C++

Incorrect.

Correct. You might want to think about how y can be equal to 5 if it is a new variable that you created for the sorting section of your code. You also might want to consider that you said you wanted y to equal 0 when you started sorting, but it equals 5. What can you do to correct that state of affairs?

I would insert a cout statment before you assign 0 to x, and display x and y. What are their values? What do you want them to be? How can you get them to be what you want?
