Well, that's a big fat lot to read, but by some miracle I read it.

First and foremost: Thank you for your apparent honesty, but that is just words without a face. Next time simply omit them as they mean nothing. Not trying to be mean, just trying to enlight you really quick and without all the pretty please and cherry on top, so please bear with me.

We don't care about your struggling or the little time you have. We do care about something, though: See an effort. Your post contains no effort, except maybe the effort of trying to scam us into making your homework out of pitty.

So how do you show an effort? Simple: Code. Not even wonderful, correct code. But code. DO SOMETHING.

How else do you show effort? Asking SPECIFIC questions that show you researched. There are a TON of tutorials out there on C++ and arrays. Your post clearly shows NO research. If you had written "I read this tutorial (link here) about arrays and the example posted there reading <post example here> contains this particular line I don't understand. Can I trouble someone for an explanation?" Now that shows effort.

So let's recap:

1. We don't care about your alleged miseries most of the time as there is no solid proof about them.
2. Always research.
3. Show an effort by asking specific questions that demonstrate you researched, or code that even is not working properly you at least wrote and failed, but hopefully are learning from it.

So in order to receive help, please show an effort and we'll help out. Your particular assignment problem is quite easy and it is hard for me to believe you cannot even start writing it, especially because you only complain about the arrays part and you claim you have nailed the loops part, and you need a couple loops here. Write the skeleton of the program, hopefully with the needful loops and we will help out filling in the blanks.

Also there's a C++ tutorial @ this site, so check it out. It's under Documentation.

Wow. Thanks. I may be guilty of not knowing the best way to ask for help, but looking for "pity" or "someone to do my homework", is not what I am doing. I thought I made that clear in my post. Thanks for the suggestion.
