C++ dynamic arrays and functions
27 April, 2010 - 00:16
what i want to do is output scores[] from getInput() into main(). the dynamic array will not cin past scores[0] without crashing. what am i doing wrong? i have gotten this code to run correctly within a single function, but i want to move the array between multiple functions.
void getInput(int * scores[], int * n, int & index)
{
int i;
bool sentinel=0;
<code>
for(index=0; sentinel==0; index++)
{
cin >> *scores[index];
<code>
if(*scores[index]==-999) { sentinel++; }
}
}
<code>
int main()
{
int n,
index;
<code>
int * scores = new int [n];
<code>
getInput(&scores, &n, index);
}
{
int i;
bool sentinel=0;
<code>
for(index=0; sentinel==0; index++)
{
cin >> *scores[index];
<code>
if(*scores[index]==-999) { sentinel++; }
}
}
<code>
int main()
{
int n,
index;
<code>
int * scores = new int [n];
<code>
getInput(&scores, &n, index);
}
