Getting errors in my char array function? - c++

Question

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
const int SIZE = 20;
char correctAnswers(char [], int);
char userAnswers(char [], int);
void compareArray(char[] , char [], int [], int, int &);
int main(){
char correct[SIZE];
char userArray[SIZE];
int result[SIZE];
int element;
correctAnswers(correct, SIZE);
cout << "Please enter the student's answers for each of the questions." << endl;
cout << "Press Enter after typing each answer." << endl;
cout << "Please enter only an A, B, C, or D for each question." << endl;
userAnswers(userArray, SIZE);
compareArray(correct, userArray, result, element);
cout << "Array 1 and Array 2 are different at" << element<<" positions: " << " ";
for(int i = 0; i < element; i++)
cout << result[i] << " ";
return 0;
}
char correctAnswers(char correct[], int SIZE){
correct[SIZE] = {'B','D','A','A','A','B','B','A','C','D','B','B','D','A','D','D','A','B','D','A'};
}
char userAnswers(char userArray[], int SIZE){
userArray[SIZE];
for(int i = 0; i < 20; i++){
cout << "Question " << (i+1) << ":";
cin >> userArray[i];
while(userArray[i] != 'A' || userArray[i] != 'B' || userArray[i] != 'C' || userArray[i] != 'D'){
cout << "Invalid input. Choose A,B,C or D." << endl;
cin >> userArray[i];
}
}
}
void compareArray(char correct[], char userArray[], int result[], int &element){
int right = 0, wrong = 0;
element = 0;
for(int i = 0; i < SIZE; i++){
if(userArray[i] == correct[i]){
right = right + 1;
}
else
wrong = wrong + 1;
}
if(right >= 15){
cout << "You Passed!";
}
else
cout << "You Fail.";
cout << "Correct answers = " << right << endl;
cout << "Incorrect answers = " << wrong << endl;
for(int i = 0; i < SIZE; i++){
if(userArray[i] != correct[i]){
result[element] = i+1;
element++;
}
}
}
I'm getting 3 errors and can't figure out why. In my char correctAnswers function, I get an error saying "cannot convert from 'braced-init-list' to 'char" and that the initializer contains too many elements. Also, in my last function it tells me function does not take four elements?

Answer 1

correct in correctAnswer is an array of char, so correct[SIZE] is a particular element of that array (although located past the end of the array), which you are trying to assign an array of characters to.
Even if you removed [SIZE], you'd still have a problem, because you are trying to use an initializer (which, as the same suggests, is for initializing) to make an assignment.
Don't understand what you mean about the last function at all.
