im getting the "File Opened!" cout and the "In Loop!" cout but not the set or any of the others

idk, not enough info

#

no main function, can't compile and run it

#

what is studentList, where does it come from, what does it look like

#

what is totalScore, all the same questions

#

I can guess at some of this stuff

#

but I don't want to guess

#

it's not reasonable to ask us to guess

frozen parcel
#

yeah my bad

unique ridge
#

even if I guess, maybe you made a typo

frozen parcel
#

okay so basically the struct im using is

# 
struct student
{
  string name;
  int score;
};```

#

I don't want "basically"

#

just post reasonably complete code

#

or you could copy paste the contents of your data into a stringstream such that you can reproduce it here with the server bot
