Temperature Sorting program issues

[illusion311]

Hi guys, I'm a complete newb to both this site and C in general. I have a homework assignment that is supposed to take temperatures a user inputs (as many as they want) and then display how how they fall into three different categories (hot, moderate, and cold) and the average temperature at the end. I have a good chunk of code done, but I am unsure about how much is too much to post! I would gladly PM it to someone though. any tips are appreciated!!
I am using the SSH secure shell to connect to my college, am and editing the programs with the PICO editor and running them using gcc and a.out.

Well, what is your question? Are you having issues with your code, or do you not know how to implement a certain part?

PS - I'm moving this from the Articles section to the Forum section ;)

This program shouldn't take too many lines to program. It's small enough that you can post the entire code.

As sicarie said, dumping code here is pointless. We can find code in less than 5 seconds with a google search. You have to give us a question, and some details like, why you think something is wrong, the observations to support that idea, what you tried to fix the problem, why it failed, etc. By giving us the entire story (along with a question), you allow us to help you.

ok, sorry about that guys. I'm trying to add all of the temperatures that the user will input while running the code, but I cannot figure out how to use parameter passing on the variable "input". I got it working on the rest but...

here are the compilation errors:


ghp7.c: In function `main':
ghp7.c:37: error: syntax error before ')' token
ghp7.c: In function `get_and_calc_temps':
ghp7.c:50: warning: comparison between pointer and integer
ghp7.c:53: warning: assignment makes integer from pointer without a cast
ghp7.c:55: error: syntax error before "else"
ghp7.c:58: warning: assignment makes integer from pointer without a cast
ghp7.c:60: error: syntax error before "else"

and here is the code in its entirety:
