Please put your code into [c0de] your code here [/c0de] tags. This will make it easier for people to read, and you will find they help you alot easier.

Hi gem925,
U should use the # format to place UR codes.

As I have understood UR problem.
U r facing problem while executing below piece of code.


For this the description is some how confusing.

//create text files(numbers.txt),then write values for reverse order second file, third file reads the words.Displaying the //results to the console as described above. //Not understanding how to piece this part together for the text file.

Please elaborate what do u want to do.
What is second file......?????
What is third file ????
etc......

So that it will be easier for some1 to help u out.

This is the whole assignment listed below it the last part where I am having trouble putting together. Any Help would be appreciated I hope this gives you a clearer understanding of what I am working on.
I am having major problems with my inData and outData files getting the correct information to those files.



First, write a simple program that will read 5 numbers from the Console (user input). Store these values into an array of int []. Using the length of the array in a for() loop and decrementing the loop counter, write the array values in reverse order to the screen. This is step one and may be enough for partial credit. If you have difficulty with this, try seeking some assistance from your instructor before going on to step two.

Next, add code to read 5 words from the Console (user input). Store these values into an array of string []. Make sure the string[] array is large enough to hold at least 6 values. Store the string constant “end_of_array” into the last element of the array. Using a do…while() loop, print out the 1st and 3rd letters of each word (two letters per line) using the substring function. This is step two and should ensure you at least a passing grade.

Finally, modify the above program to read the numbers in from a text file (numbers.txt), write the values in reverse order to a second file, and read the words in from a third file, displaying the results to the Console as described above. This is your completed project.
