1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data:
The problem would be to make the program tolerate the white space and still read the string of characters. the objective would be to read roman numerals. the function can read the roman numerals but the white space read it as a zero and trash the whole thing. I have very little understanding of the usage of "flush" as well.
2. Relevant commands, code, scripts, algorithms: 3. The attempts at a solution (include all code and scripts):
4. Complete Name of School (University), City (State), Country, Name of Professor, and Course Number (Link to Course):
University Of Hawaii at Manoa, Honolulu (HI), Oahu (Hawaii), Tep Dobry, EE160 (I cannot post any link since this is my third post here, but google ee160 or tep dobry on google and it should be in the link 2011 ee 160: I apologize for any inconvenience)
