I cant get this program to work I can get it to read in the file and enter the winning numbers but it just ends after it. the program is supposed to take in a file (input.txt) and make it into a list of structs with peoples names and lotto numbers in it and then get numbers from the user and compare them with the numbers in the structs and if there is any winners they win certain amounts of money. im using dev c.
