Array Program Please Help

tony2481 (20)
So I get the error: "argument of type int is incompatible of type int" and I have tried many things already.

	highlowavgFunc(even[50], odd[50]);
	maxthanavgFunc(even[50], odd[50]);


Any suggestions?

It seems you transfered a wrong type to the function(like unsigned int to signed and int).you need give us the declaration of the two functions. Or we know nothing about it.
tony2481 (20)
alright so I need to declare that type to the function correct?
tony2481 (20)
the full error was "argument of type int is incompatible with parameter of type int"

Are you trying to send the function a single element of the array or the entire array?
tony2481 (20)
entire array
wildblue (1505)
When you're going to send an entire array, just use the name of the array. Don't use the [] in the function call.

Did that error message have an int vs an int*? It sounds like the function is expecting a whole array (int*) but you're sending it an individual element (int).
tony2481 (20)
do you want to see the whole program?
wildblue (1505)
How are these functions defined?

highlowavgFunc(even[50], odd[50]);
maxthanavgFunc(even[50], odd[50]);
tony2481 (20)
yes and the error message did have an int*

Ok this works yet now I get some huge random negative number in my ouput....
