C++ really annoying project, ISO idea's

CLOSED

Spoiler

well I havn't even started working on this because of a few conditions

i need to create a program to solve a mode with out using an array

what it should do, take a string of numbers add them, calculate the number that is most repeated back to back and display that

while this is for a class I'd appreciate some ideas on where to start and not straight code, there is more to the lab id just like some ideas to help me solve the mode

Then use vectors, they're a liiittle different from an array.

In all seriousness though, are you allowed a MAX_INPUT or are you required to allow the user to enter as many numbers as they want?

yay thats what i did for my random generator kinda like random org but i make it generate a thousand or more times for a legit random number

users are allowed to enter as many numbers as they want

why can't you use an array? how about making the string into an object?

You could use vectors like Syndicate said, but I'm not sure if your professor would enjoy that. I feel like there's some information you're leaving out.

Something like this would work, but I don't know if you're allowed to put these types of restrictions on it.

Give me a number:  70
Another number not smaller than the previous: 71
Another number not smaller than the previous: 80
Another number not smaller than the previous: 80
Another number not smaller than the previous: 80
Another number not smaller than the previous: 91
Another number not smaller than the previous: 93
Another number not smaller than the previous: -1
Mode is 80.

Putting the must be greater than restriction on makes sure they come in sorted, making it incredibly easy to determine the mode.

no we are not allowed to restrict any input
