What's wrong with this Pascal syntax?

Question

I can\'t understand what\'s going on here. Can you give me a hand? This is the problematic code:

While not EOF(Archi) do begin
  index:= index + 1;
  Read(Archi,         


        

Answer 1

Note that in Pascal the semicolon is a separator, not a terminator. Sometimes this doesn't matter, but in some cases it does, particularly before an else. Your code should be:

while not EOF(Archi) do
  begin
    index:= index + 1;
    Read(Archi, Alumno[index]);
    Promes[index] := (Alumno[index].nota1 + Alumno[index].nota2) / 2;
    if Promes[index] >= 6 then
      begin
        alguPromo := true;
        PromosIndex := PromosIndex + 1;
        Promos[PromosIndex] := Alumno[index]
      end
    else
      begin
        if Promes[index] > 4 then
          cantiRecu:= cantiRecu + 1
        else
          begin
            LibresIndex := LibresIndex + 1;
            Libres[LibresIndex] := Alumno[index]
          end
      end
  end

Note that I have re-formatted the code into a more conventional style which helps to make the program logic more easily understood and which also makes it more obvious where the semicolons are needed and where they are not.

Looks like problem in += operator
