How do you get a 15x15 matrix using an ifstream

[lolcheelol]

ifstream in1("txtxtxtx");
int ct=0;
int *p=new int[1300];
int forever=1;
 
while(forever){ 
in1 >> *(p+ct); 
 
if(*(p+ct) == -1) break;
ct++; 
} // WHILE LOOP
 
for(int i=0; i<ct; i++){
cout << "\t" << *(p+i);
if((ct)%15==0) cout << "\n";
if((ct)%150==0) cout << "Enter to continue";
} // FOR LOOP
getch();
 
cout << "\n\n\tTotal data = " << ct;
delete p; 
in1.close(); 

So basically I'm trying to get a 15x15 matrix of the numbers from the text file I have and after a 15x15 matrix is printed I want the user to have the option to hit a key to continue. It prints all the numbers correctly, but it doesn't do the matrix in the way I would like it to. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

sorry for the large amount of text, but i wanted to be thorough.

i want this(obviously not the same numbers, but just making it easier for myself to show you)

Enter to continue...

then it just repeats. till the numbers finish outputting from the text file.

[newb16]

The loop variable is i, but you always check for ct % something, that is constant throughout the loop.

[lolcheelol]

that doesn't make alot of sense to me because my count is telling me how many numbers i have...

[newb16]

So why do you want to print next line after each number if total number of items divides by 15?

[lolcheelol]

so it looks like this in the output

6 198 651 694 692 196 594 762 698 321 265 517 559 1010 648
6 198 651 694 692 196 594 762 698 321 265 517 559 1010 648

Enter to continue...

not

6 198 651 694 692 196 594 762 698 321 265 517 559 1010 648
6 198 651 694 692 196 594 762 698 321 265 517 559 1010 648
Enter to continue...

does my question make sense? i know my actual coding is right because i'm getting the numbers, i just would like to know why the matrix isn't working

[newb16]

It's because _that_ part of coding that is responsible for making matrix _isn't_ right.

[lolcheelol]

so your saying it should be i instead of ct? i'm not really getting what your saying.
