C++ Question?

[code]


#include %26lt;iostream%26gt;


#include %26lt;fstream%26gt;


using namespace std;





int read ( char , char );





typedef struct


{


int computernum;


char fibit[8];


char sebit[8];


char thbit[8];


char fobit[8];





} address;





main ()


{


char red;


red = read (zero, one);





cout %26lt;%26lt; red %26lt;%26lt; endl;


return 0;


}





int read (char z, char o)


{


ifstream fin;


char zero;


char one;


fin.open ("prog2.dat");





if (fin.fail() )


{


cout %26lt;%26lt; "File not found or opened" %26lt;%26lt; endl;


exit(1);


}





if ( zero = 0)


{


zero= 0;


}


return 0;


}


[/code]





I am lost on the last part mostly. My instructor gave me a file named prog2.dat which contained this file

C++ Question?
You haven't asked any question. All you've done is post some source code and input file info. What is the code supposed to do? What are you having trouble figuring out?
Reply:since int read(..) return only zero .....looks like your program will only output zeros....


so what is your question?
