1. Enter 15 integer values. Then your program will output something, because it asks three times for input (lines 15, 38, 68).

2. Have a look at your compilers warnings! You never use variables lowest, highest and sum.

3. Functions findlowest() and findhighest() doesn't define any parameter names. Its one of C/C++ curiosities allowing to define formal parameters without names. Both functions will operate on undefined values of their locally defined variables s1..s5.

4. A hint: main() should ever return a value. 0, which is commonly defined as EXIT_SUCCES, on success and something like EXIT_FAILURE otherwise.

In C++ main implicitely return 0 if not stated otherwise. You do not need explicit return statement.

Oh, many thanks! I didn't knew it.
