Re: [Dev-C++] BAKERY PROBLEM

The advice I should've given to the problem, which I totally neglected to
mention, is, if you find that your repeating statements, like all though's
'for else' statements, sit back and think on how you can get a loop to do
all the work for you, don't rush the job. I use to rush. After I sent my
tests in and had a bit of time to think, clearer and better answers would
come to mind. I'd be slapping my forehead and kicking myself, "If I only
waited and thought about it", my marks would have been much better as they
are now.
