The problem with my code is that it is also printing out trailing zeroes. Can anyone help me fix this? It prints out
0
0
0
0
0
31
22
31
44
55
The values I want come after the trailing zeroes but I don’t know how they are there in the first place. Please help :slight_smile:

This creates a vector of size n.

Add values at back of vector.

Basically, you have created a vector of size n. And after appending n times your vector size is n.

Either remove that n.
Or newInts[i]=appended;
