probably because the input file cannot be opened 🤷

you need to cd into whatever directory contains program6_input.txt before you run your program

i.e. your "current working directory" must be the same one that contains your input file

because that's a relative path, and that relative path means "look in the current directory"

wait so is the question different now

[fathom drift]

I mean, I just explained probably why and probably how to fix

tried what

do you understand what cwd is?

I really don't understand what you mean by that

you always have a cwd, everything has a cwd

yes, do you understand what that is?

do you understand the difference between absolute paths, relative paths and fully qualified paths?

ok, no problem

how do you run your program?

so you probably need something like this https://missing.csail.mit.edu/

your school likely offers something like this already, but it's usually optional, not for credit, outside of regular course lecture hours

most universities have this

but if yours doesn't or you can't find it, use that one

I doubt any of your programming courses will cover that

and you kind of need that info now

well, like, I'll give a 99% chance that your issue is what I already described and answered for you yesterday, related to cwd
