This code is supposed to ask the user

How many numbers would you like to enter?

And then give the smallest, largest , average, and the difference

between each number and the average. But it wont work. And i cant find

why. I get no error but it still wont work.

Could you please help me fix this thing as I have no more hair left

thinking about it. I am new to programming so I need the most basic

code to fix it....

I thank you in advance..

#include <iostream.h>

#include <conio.h>

main()

{

clrscr();

int maxentries,maxnumber,minnumber,number,totalaverage;

float average,sum,difference;

cout<<"How many Numbers would you like to Enter?\t";

cin>>maxentries;

for (int count = 0; count < maxentries; count++)

{

cout<<"\n\nEnter a number Please:\t";

cin>>"number";

sum += number;

average = ( sum / count );

cout<<"\nAverage of these numbers is\t"<<average;

difference = ( number - average );

cout<<"\nDifference between this number and the average is"<<difference;

if ( number < minnumber )

minnumber = number;

if ( number > maxnumber )

maxnumber = number;

}

cout<<"\nSmallest number is\t"<<minnumber;

cout<<"\nLargest number is\t"<<maxnumber;

totalaverage = sum / maxentries;

cout<<"\nTotal average is\t"<<totalaverage;

getch();

return 0;
