Hi Vince

Your code has to be tuned, try these two things:

- each line of the file "test.dat" consists of 7 integers, I suppose you 
use the first integer of the row as a marker and the other 6 as data; 
instead of reading "pclass" + 5 integers try "pclass" + 6 integers.

- the line that prints the output should have "count" somewhere, probably 
you typed "cout" instead of "count".

Note: you are learning C++ from a book that is a bit old ( I can tell that 
from the fact that you say "#include <iostream.h>", instead of "#include 
<iostream>"): I suggest you find one that tells about ANSI C++. I do not 
know if there is one available on line, probably if you take a look at the 
link page of the site: http://www.noicys.d2g.com  you can find some sites 
that among other books have one on ANSI C++.
