i have made one small addition to my example
program that i can not figure out.  Theres something wrong with my add
function.  I seem to have trouble with double arrays.



#include<stdio.h> /* input/output header */

int restore(char a[][19], int b[], int *number);
int print(char a[][19], int b[], int *number);
int add(char a[][19], int b[], int howmuch, char product, int *number);
int main(void)
{
	
	/*int numbers, functions, characters, etc */
	char item[100][19],char product;
	int quantity[100];
	int i;
    int number=0,howmuch=0;    
	
	printf("1. To read chars.\n");
	printf("2. To print chars.\n");
	printf("3. To add chars.\n");
	while (1) {
	scanf("%d",&i);
	
        

	   if (i == 1) {
		   restore(item,quantity,&number);
		   i=0; }
	   if (i == 2) {
		    print(item,quantity,&number);
			i=0; }
	   if (i == 3) {
			scanf("%d%c",howmuch,product);
		    add(item,quantity, howmuch, product,&number);
			i=0; }
	   }
    
	return 0;
}

int print(char a[][19], int b[], int *number) {
	int j;
	for (j = 0;  j < *number;  j++) 
		printf( "%s  %d ", a[j], b[j]);
	return *number;
}

int restore(char a[][19], int b[], int *number) {
    int j;
	FILE * infile;
	infile = fopen( "ryan.txt","r" );
	fscanf( infile, "%d", number); 
	for (j = 0;  j < *number;  j++) 
		fscanf( infile, "%s %d ", a[j], &b[j]);
	printf("Array Created! YAY!\n");
	return *number;
}

int add(char a[][19], int b[], int howmuch, char product, int *number) {
	if (*number == 0)
		printf("Error: you must restore an order first\n");
	*number++;
	a[*number][19] = product;
	b[*number] = howmuch;
	return *number;
}
