This program is killing me.
I havnt been attending class as often as i should be, as the code will show, im sure.
The program is supposed to:
Take in the list length,take in the prices, list the prices and,
use the recursive statement to find the lowest price entered.
*ugh*
And not done yet is, show the highest price,average price, and allocate the shopper 10 points per ten pounds spent.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int i;
int num;
double price[50];
double rmin;

void main()
{
printf("Welcome to the Shopping list generator.\n");
printf("How many prices do you want to enter?:");
scanf("%i", &num);

for (i=0; i<num; i++)
{
printf("Enter a price:");
scanf("%lf", &price);
}

for (i=1; i<=num; i++)
{
printf("Item %i: %lf\n", i,price);
}

double rmin(double price[], int low, int high)
{
static double small = price[0];
if (price [low] < small)
{
small = price[low];
}
if (low==high)
{
return small;
}
else
return rmin(price, low+1, high);
}
printf("The Minimum price was: %lf", rmin);
}

I keep getting "error C2599: 'rmin' : local functions are not supported"

Please help me!

Edited as I missed what you were doing.

You are trying to have a function inside your main function. This is bold and will not work. I think a quick look at the C book might help.

I have no compiler on this machine and havent programmed in C for a while so the below probly needs some work

Specify your rminfunc function at the top...i.e. not inside your main()

i.e.

#include <whatever.h>

(try to not name functions the same as variables for ease of coding)

double rminfunc(double price[], int low, int high){

blah code blah
return blah;
}

void main(){

//Instantiate your variables HERE, not outside a function.
int i;
int num;
double price[50];
double rmin;

//Your inputting code goes here.

//Call your function, Youll need to have 'low' and 'high' variables too.
rmin = rminfunc(price, low, high);

printf ("low value = %lf", rmin);
}


There are some other problems in your code that need fixing but ill leave them for you to figure out. But the basic form of the program should be like the example.
