Oh and do you have an essay for me to write for English? What about a obstacle course for me to run for you in PE?

ohh! yay!

I'll look at it, but I've never really cared much for the online "uh do my homework" people. I never did that when I had problems with c.

I don't either, but there are better ways to handle the situation.

if its compiling/linking error, bring out your C reference book check the error.
if its run time error, bring out your debugger.


anyway, make it work before tomorrow even if it means no sleeping tonight.
