I do think I have some kind of memory leak in there. It takes a bit too long computing for how simple it is.



Yeah I went over some arrays research when doing this before I realized I needed nested statements in order to fulfill his requirement. They look pretty simple to me because I am just looking at them as a spreadsheet starting from 0 both in length and width but I am sure I will screw my first one up.

You can't possibly have a memory leak when you're not dynamically allocating memory.

Why you using a double for your loop control variable? lol

I wonder if your problem is you keep redefining average at the end of the loop

I dont remember how it works, but I wonder if it's doing something strange with memory there

I don't see anything weird in your code though a_skeleton_03. Maybe it's just your dev environment. It runs instantly on my rackspace pos host.

While loops are pretty easy to write so there isn't a proper exit condition. Since most people are taught to write their for loops that are self-incrementing it is really hard to write an infinite with a for -- though technically possible of course.

We just brought double into our curriculum so instead of just using float or integer I said meh why not and put double in.

I know it won't have a decimal place.

Your Professor not taking points off for using a double as a loop counter is the best example of him being shitty. Try to avoid comparing doubles.
