help reading error

So, this my last assignment, and i am writing a file (numbers.text) into an array and then processing the sum, highest num, lowest num. i really need a hint as to how to read the error messages.
Here is the error I receive,i assume i am passing the incorrect array size in main, but i can not figure out how to remedy this.

You have a mismatch between what you declare the function to be and what you define the function to be. For example, you say that getLowest() is declared as this:

1
2
3

int getLowest(int[], int);


but you defined it like this:

1
2
3

int getLowest(double array[], int size)


Make them match and you should be OK.
Sheesh, this gets easier right?
Yahoo. It built. I spent hours on that before i broke down for help.....
all i get is garbage from the text file, but i think i am on to it.

Thank you koothkeeper.
