Hi,
Could you please let us know where you are facing trouble?

Is this using the .Net framework (do you have to convert it to .Net) or is it a C/C++ related query?

I am new into programming and this has been a real big task. I was able for the program to read my input but I am having trouble with the first letter being a vowel or consonant and then adding the correct extension. Thanks any help would be greatly appreaciated.

First you need to develop the logic for this part - create your algorithm. How would you formulate this if you were given a sheet of paper and a pencil and had to write out the directions for a small child (a compiler is like a small child - very literal, and limited to exactly what you tell it)?

Does your code do this? Does it do it incorrectly? Honestly, I didn't look, after I saw your title dealing with pig latin and the first comment dealing with something about tic tac toe.

It is c related, Thanks
