Array help... please

boston (48)
Hi all - I can't get ahold of my tutor and it's due Monday. I can't get my arrays to work. I know the information is going into the array, but when I run displayEmployeeResults I get crazy results for all entries except the last employee for whom I entered data. It's in 2 pieces bc of the 9000 character limit. This is the top piece.

Try that. Sorry, don't really know what I did. There was like 10 variables that were not being used, which I had no idea why. And you didn't end the last curly bracket, and 3 functions didn't return anything.

Don't know if it fixed your problem or not, hope so!

Kong, you are awesome! I was able to tweak this and get a working array.

One more question: how do I add some of the results to create totals and averages? I want to add all of the grossPay results to yield totalGrossPay, but I don't know how to pull info from individual cells. I tried totalGrossPay = grossPay[0]+grossPay[1]... etc. but that didn't work. To create an average, I would need to divide that totalGrossPay by totalEmployees, but I don't know how to count user entries either.

Sorry to bug everyone with this stuff on a Sunday :\

I got SO CLOSE to a working segment of code with:

1
2
3
4
5
6
 
    int i;
    for (i=0;i<arrayIndex;i++){
        totalGrossPay += grossPay[i];
    }
    cout<<"Total Gross Pay" <<totalGrossPay;


Only problem is, that for loop doesn't include the first employee in the totalGrossPay total.
