if i go into the debug i keep getting bumbed into some other function
__pow_helper() and it gets stuck

your declaration of arrange() doesn't match the function you've defined.

you declare its arguments as doubles, but the actual definition specifies references to doubles.

edit: also, check your logic w/in arrange()

silly me
thanks

Can you be more specific, I don't know what you mean

[mikeyredk]

in turbo c++ there is a function that tells you the current time in seconds

time_t is the data type
then you would set it equal to some value
like

time_t t;
t = time(null);

this will give you the time in seconds from like 1970
i need this for a random number generator that we are making in our CSE class

Vlade I hate your 'tar.....

use time_t time(time_t *tloc)

You'll also have to:
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <time.h>

if you need more details check the docs, esp. the man page for the function.
