cash five lotto

[acfan12]

Hi i need help with the program that follows and am unsure how to start it: The Cash-5 is a daily lottery number game. Each evening five numbers are drawn to determine the person winning the prize money. You are to design a program that will permit the user to enter five days of the cash five and store these numbers in an array of 5 rows and 5 columns. After storing these numbers the program should determine the top five recurring numbers for the five day period.

this is a non random generator program
any help is greatly appricated.

Start by writing out in pseudo-code the logical steps you think the program will take to complete its task

e.g.

main()
 create variables

 ask for draw details
 store in array

 // etc etc

end main

Be as concise as possible, this will give you a better understand of how to accomplish the task.

Top down programming, start with the biggest chuck, break it down smaller and smaller. Big chucks would be...

Entering numbers
storing numbers
find recuring numbers

then break down into smaller chunck

Entering numbers
create array
prompt for numbers
Input numbers
Storing numbers
find reccurring numbers.

This is how I was thaught to deal with big problems, hope it helps.
