Thread: programming ...

i remember programming my first game in basic when i was 12.

It was a fighting game where each character had attributes and the computer would simulate a fight.

okay i have a question about this weeks assignment and this is the best congegation of programers i know of.

flavour.erase(2);

is being a pain in the *** to me. flavour is a vector and i just need to erase a single value from the vector. here is my code

void tastes::removeTaste(string newTaste)
{
done=0;
count=0;
while (count < flavour.size() || done!=1)
{
if (flavour[count]==newTaste)
{
flavour.erase(2);
amount.erase(2);
done=1;
}
count++;
}
}

i pretty much get this any time i try to call erase (all other vector member functions work properly.

tastes.cpp: In member function `void
tastes::removeTaste(std::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>,
std::allocator<char> >)':
