Thread Breakpoint Error

I am receiving an lldb error that I cannot get rid of with this code. The lldb debugger returns this information. I have changed things around, but the same error just shows up on another line. It always says thread breakpoint. Can anyone help?

ave1 double 7.7790454042181e-15
ave2 double 6.9532229757818e-310
first double 0
fourth double 0
second double 0
third double 0

You're getting the breakpoint because ave1 and ave2 are uninitialized.

At line 22, your're passing ave1 by value. You calculate it, but it never gets returned, nor updated in the calling function.

Line 27, same problem with ave2.

You need to pass ave1 and ave2 by reference.

I have edited the code to include call by reference parameters, but I still get the same breakpoint error in the same location when I compile my code.
