Right, but all I told him was was take the space out between the for loop and { because that was annoying me.  We were using pastebin.com to view the code.  Then it just decided to work.  I have no clue why.

Depending on his text editor, he could have had nonprinting chars on that line.  Newbies make that mistake a LOT, using a nonraw text editor like wordpad.

I taught myself BASIC on a 8086 I picked up a police auction when I was in 6th grade.  My high school had a pascal class :)

Yep, I took AP Pascal in high school... which ended up overlapping with my first two programming courses at Northeastern.
