Help with my homework please

I have to create a simple counting sort:

#include "stdafx.h"
#include "stdlib.h"
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
int *x;
int a[10] = {23,2,53,6,98,52,43,76,3,11};
int b[10];
int max=0;
int i;
int amount;
int i2;
int bi;

/*Finds the maximum number in the array*/
for(i=0;i<10;i++)
{
if(a[i]>max)
max=a[i];
}


x = calloc(max, sizeof(int));/*allocates the memory for dynamic array*/

/*counts the number of reoccurances and places them into correct index of array c*/
for(i=0;i<max;i++)
{
amount = 0;
for(i2=0;i2<10;i++)
{
if(a[i2]==i)
amount++;
}
x[i] = amount;
}

/*loops through array c and enters anything with one or more occurrances into array b*/
for(i=0;i<max;i++)
{
if(x[i]!=0)
{
for(i2=0;i2<x[i];i2++)
{
b[bi]=i;
bi++;
}
}
}

/*prints the count sorted array*/
printf("This is count sorted array:\n");
for(i=0;i<10;i++)
{
printf("d2\n",b[i]);
}
return 0;

}

when i compile i get the following error can anyone figure this out, Ive been staring at it for 2 hours.:confused:

C:\My Documents\Test\test.cpp(25) : error C2440: '=' : cannot convert from 'void *' to 'int *'
Conversion from 'void*' to pointer to non-'void' requires an explicit cast
Error executing cl.exe.


Thank you

I reformatted your code and fixed the errors, but I don't think it does what you intended to do.

The problem was that you needed to initialize your variables and one of your loop counters was messed up.

PHP Code:

#include <stdio.h> 
#include <malloc.h>

int main(int argc, char* argv[]){ 

    int *x; 
    int a[10] = {23,2,53,6,98,52,43,76,3,11}; 
    int b[10]; 
    int max=0; 
    int i=0; 
    int amount=0; 
    int i2=0; 
    int bi=0; 

    /*Finds the maximum number in the array*/ 
    for(i=0;i<10;i++){ 
        if(a[i]>max) 
            max=a[i]; 
    } 


    x = (int *)calloc(max, sizeof(int));/*allocates the memory for dynamic array*/ 

    /*counts the number of reoccurances and places them into correct index of array c*/ 
    for(i=0;i<max;i++){ 

        amount = 0; 

        for(i2=0;i2<10;i2++){ 
            if(a[i2]==i) 
                amount++; 
        } 

        x[i] = amount; 
    } 

    /*loops through array c and enters anything with one or more occurrances into array b*/ 
    for(i=0;i<max;i++){ 

        if(x[i]!=0){ 
            for(i2=0;i2<x[i];i2++){ 
                b[bi]=i; 
                bi++; 
            } 
        } 
    } 

    /*prints the count sorted array*/ 
    printf("This is count sorted array:\n"); 
    for(i=0;i<10;i++){ 
        printf("d2\n",b[i]); 
    } 
    return 0;
