help! :(

[honeygrl33]

i accidentially erased something someone helped me write and i am soooo
in trouble if i dont fix this, i really need the help!!!!!

heres what i have:
/*
*/

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

#define SIZE 12

void printResults (char months[][15], double sales[]);
void storeSales (char months[][15], double sales[]);

int main ( void )
{
system ("clear");
int i;
double sales[ SIZE ];
char months [SIZE][15] = {"January", "February", "March", "April",
"May",
"June", "July", "August", "September", "October",
"November", "December"};

for (i = 0; i < SIZE; i++)
{
printf("%-9s: %9.2f/n", months[ i ], sales[ i ]);
}
storeSales (months, sales);
printResults (months, sales);
return 0;

}
void storeSales ( char months[][15], double sales[] )
{
int i = 0;
for ( i = 0; i < SIZE; i++ )
{

do
{
printf("Enter the store's sales for the month of %s:",
months[ i ]);
scanf( "9.2%lf", &sales [ i ]);
printf("\n");
}
while ((sales[ i ] < 0.00 ) || ( sales[ i ] > 100000.00));
}
}
----------------------------
i need the printresults...
lowest, highest, and average... heeeeelp! please? i will owe u one!!

You need to traverse your sales array and find the average, which is the
total sum divided by the number of elements. You'll want a "for" loop for
this.

While you're traversing the array, you'll also want to capture the lowest
and highest values. You'll need 2 "if" statements for this.

Are you on-track so far?

Why are you printing the sales array without INSTANTIATING any values in it?
What do you expect beyond GIGO? karl m

I really wish I could tell you... also, I really wish I knew what that
meant.. my friend said it meant I didn't put anything in the values?

So it's premature to output values from sales at that point in the program's
execution. Do you think the "print loop" is needed at all, and if so where
does it belong. karl m

If you do not initialize variables, they can have any value.
For example

int apples;

printf ("%d", apples);

would print out "-135468" or any other number.

but

int apples = 5;

printf ("%d", apples);

would print out "5".

Same holds for arrays. You can initialize arrays with zeros with code:

#define DAYS 30

int i;

int tomatoes_per_day[30];

for (i = 0 ; i < DAYS ; i++)
tomatoes_per_day[i] = 0;
Now every value in array 'tomatoes_per_day' has value which is zero.

I think that usenet is suffering a feed-back loop. There are many posts

Here is the whole code working.
If you are using gcc to compile your programs, you may use the line 'gcc -Wall
-pedantic a.c' where 'a.c' is the source file. This prints a lot warnings if
something is wrong.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

char months [SIZE][15] = {"January", "February", "March", "April",
"May", "June", "July", "August", "September", "October",
"November", "December"};

system ("clear");
storeSales (months, sales);
printResults (months, sales);

return 0;
}

void storeSales ( char months[][15], double sales[] )
{
int i = 0;
for ( i = 0; i < SIZE; i++ )
{

do
{
printf("Enter the store's sales for the month of %s:",
months[ i ]);
scanf( "%lf", &sales[i]); /* scanf: "%lf" for double*/

/* User sees if he or she has entered the correct * value. */
printf("%f\n", sales[i]); /* printf: "%f" for double*/

}
while ((sales[ i ] < 0.00 ) || ( sales[ i ] > 100000.00));
}
}

void printResults (char months[][15], double sales[])
{
int i;
double lowest = 0.0, highest = 0.0, average = 0.0;
for (i = 0; i < SIZE; i++)
{
printf("%-9s: %9.2f\n", months[ i ], sales[ i ]);
}
for (i = 0 ; i < SIZE ; i++)
average = average + (sales[i] / SIZE);

printf ("Average: %f\n", average);
lowest = sales[0];
for (i = 0 ; i < SIZE ; i++) {
if (lowest > sales[i]) {
lowest = sales[i];
}
}

printf ("Lowest: %f\n", lowest);

highest = sales[0];
for (i = 0 ; i < SIZE ; i++) {
if (highest < sales[i]) {
highest = sales[i];
}
}

printf ("Highest: %f\n", highest);

That still has the endless loop, just tried it..... why wont tyhe loop
end?

You have to enter a number that is between 0.00 and 100000.00.
If it still does not work, I usually play around with the code, e.g. try
removing the
do
{

/* ... */

}
while (/* ... */)
loop.
Also you may try copy & paste my code and compile it. You may have a typing
error if you have copied the examples presented by hand.

That's what yours does, and mine does too -- I fixed discrepancies (ie:
if it says lf% instead of f%)

Pay no attention to the "error" message that googlegroups is giving you
about "not posting", or "queueing" your messages -- it's causing duplicate
postings. karl m

ok.. gotcha! :)

Firstly can you LEAVE SOME CONTEXT in your posts (like I did above).
Several people posted code ideas, there's no way to know whose code you
refer to. By leaving a few lines of relevant context, you allow people to
see what you're referring to.

Secondly, if the discrepancy you refer to is the %lf in scanf vs the %f in
printf, PLEASE read a C book, or at least your help files / manual - this
is NOT a discrepancy.
