give feedback on this pointer program
- by JohnWong
This is relatively simple program. But I want to get some feedback about how I can improve this program (if any), for example, unnecessary statements?
#include<iostream>
#include<fstream>
using namespace std;
double Average(double*,int);
int main()
{
ifstream inFile("data2.txt");
const int SIZE = 4;
double *array = new double(SIZE);
double *temp;
temp = array;
for (int i = 0; i < SIZE; i++)
{
inFile >> *array++;
}
cout << "Average is: " << Average(temp, SIZE) << endl;
}
double Average(double *pointer, int x)
{
double sum = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < x; i++)
{
sum += *pointer++;
}
return (sum/x);
}
The codes are valid and the program is working fine. But I just want to hear what you guys think, since most of you have more experience than I do (well I am only a freshman ... lol)
Thanks.
