Greetings everyone,

I tried ctrcmp but it's not for chars. (like "a" or "v")
How can i do it? :/

		}
	}
    for(t=1;t<=count1;t++)
	{
	cout<< array[t].character << endl;
	cout<< ",\n";
	cout<< array[t].priority<< endl;
	cout<< ")\n";
	}
}

You can compare char using the standard such tests: ==, !=, etc

nope though it woudln't work..gonna try it.
i don't think it works have you tried it?
It does work. You have made a mistake in your code or build. Here's some sample output:


Enter first char (one char only)
a
Enter second char (one char only)
b
Second one is bigger


Enter first char (one char only)
r
Enter second char (one char only)
s
Second one is bigger


Enter first char (one char only)
p
Enter second char (one char only)
e
First one is bigger


Enter first char (one char only)
g
Enter second char (one char only)
g
They are the same


thank you so much :)
