Hi everyone!
I need some help on a project I have. The project details are on this page: www.enee.umd.edu. A summary of what I have to do is that I have to make a program that uses parentheses to show the order of operations.

I can use arrays and basic functions without pointers. Also, I can use switch statements, if and else statements, and loops. I can't use anything else cuz I haven't learned it yet and also I am not allowed to use anything that I have not learned yet.

So far I have:
- A function that tells the precedence of the expression (returns 2 for mult., div., modular, returns 1 for +, -, and returns 0 for anything else).
- A function that returns the length of the expression.
- A main function that searches for negative values and puts parentheses around them.
- An array of characters for the expression and an array of integers for the precedence (both arrays are updated as parentheses are added to the arrays).

This is where I am stuck. I am supposed to ignore anything between parentheses by considering them as a single operand. I made it so that anything between the parentheses has a precedence of 0, but can't figure out a way to put in the parentheses properly.

Any help would be great! Thx!

Hi andrew and welcome to GIDForums™.

Most people around here don't have a problem looking at code and finding problems, but most of the times we just don't write solutions to someones questions.

You said you have some code written, you should probably post that and try to be specific about where you are struggling. Also, if you post code, please do it properly between code tags ([c] & [/c])

Thanks!
