hi, my name is vic...i got one problem cannot fix....output for the number of times each of the tasks has been invoked...i run 3 times each of the tasks but the output always is this program has run 1 times.....

#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>

void doTaskA(){
    printf("Start of Task A\n\n");
    int input_1, input_2, input_3;
    printf("Start of TASK A\n\n");
    printf("Please enter 3 integer.\n");
    scanf("%d\n%d\n%d",&input_1, &input_2, &input_3);
    if ((input_3>input_1) && (input_3>input_2))
        printf("/nThe biggest number is %d\n", input_3);
    else if ((input_2>input_1) && (input_2>input_3))
        printf("/nThe biggest number is %d\n", input_2);
    else 
        printf("/nThe biggest number is %d\n",input_1);

}



void doTaskB(){
int row, c, n, temp;

   printf("Start of Task B\n\n");
printf("Enter the number of rows in pyramid of stars you wish to see ");
   scanf("%d",&n);

   temp = n;

   for ( row = 1 ; row <= n ; row++ )
   {
      for ( c = 1 ; c < temp ; c++ )
         printf(" ");

      temp--;

      for ( c = 1 ; c <= 2*row - 1 ; c++ )
         printf("*");

      printf("\n");
   }

}



void doTaskC(){
 int n, c, k, space;
  printf("Start of Task c\n\n");

  scanf("%d", &n);

   space = 0;

   for ( k = n ; k >= 1 ; k-- )
   {
       for ( c = 1 ; c <= space ; c++ )
       printf(" ");

       space++;

       for ( c = 1 ; c <= k ; c++)
          printf("%d", c);

       printf("\n");
   }


}

You should make the 'count' variable get incremented while calling the 'displayMenu' function if that's what you want. I'm not sure though what is it that you require.

what is the error???/
