also dint want to make another thread....
but switch doesn't that the char **argv ?
thx in advnace

More details please. Its hard to tell where the problem is.
which arguments did you use for input? post the code and how you run the program.

Just to show you that we need more information:
an argument for argv[3] might be a value between 0.0 and 0.999 (as string of course) - while 'number' is declared as an integer...

In addition...take a look at the following FAQ...
