563 PointsControl Flow For Loops
I have coded my code exactly how he has it coded in the video but my build continues to fail and says my for loop has an empty body, and that i used an undeclared identifier I.
int main()
{
int many[] = { 2, 4, 8};
int sum = 0;
for (int i=0; i < 3; i++); {
sum += many[i]
printf("sum %d\n", sum)
}
return 0;
}

you have a semicolon where you dont need one. remove the semicolon from that line (after the closing parenthesis of the for. You are also missing semicolons
sum += many[i]
printf("sum %d\n", sum)
those statements need semicolons at the end.
this is what it should look like with the fixes I mentioned:
int main()
{
int many[] = { 2, 4, 8};
int sum = 0;
for (int i=0; i < 3; i++) {
sum += many[i];
printf("sum %d\n", sum);
}
return 0;
}

563 PointsThanks a ton. I am terrible with semicolons. Such a simple mistake.
