write neg and pos numbers

michael25 (26)
im supposed to create a program that reads in a list of integers from the terminal and writes the negative numbers to one file and the positive numbers to another file.

i got most of it doen but for some reason its not writting the negative numbers. any ideas on what im doing wrong?

its not writting the negative numbers

Do you mean they are not written to output file? or they are not counted?

Try to describe the problem more thoroughly.

Also try put cout>>"negative">>neg_num to your third and fourth ifs to debug whether you get there or not.
