Two errors in grading program - c++

Question

These are my two errors:
error C2664: 'StudentMax' : cannot convert parameter 1 from 'int' to 'int []'
Conversion from integral type to pointer type requires reinterpret_cast, C-style cast or function-style cast
This is my code, what do I need to fix?

Answer 1

You're passing an int to StudentMax, which expects an array (int[]).
You currently have StudentMax( averages[count]);, which is the offending line. You're not doing anything with that result, though, so just delete the line. That should fix both errors.
