Must add sales rep name, amount, calculate commission, and remove sales rep and sale from array.



I'm struggling with the searchSeller method and have made no progress in over 24hrs.



static string SearchSeller(int[] sellerSales, string[] sellerNames, int sellerCount,
ref string salesRep)

int index = 0;
bool found = false;

while (!found && index < sellerCount)

if (salesRep = sellerNames[index])
found = true;
else
index++;

if (!found)
index = -1;
return sellerNames[index];



The issue seems to be somewhere in the line:



if (salesRep = sellerNames[index])


Error says:




cannot convert string to bool.

    Btw you should check Array.FindIndex() or maybe Linq's Enumerable.First(), Enumerable.Single() and Enumerable.Contains . Try it online

change



 if (salesRep = sellerNames[index])


to



 if (salesRep == sellerNames[index])


single = will assign sellerNames[index] to salesRep while == is for comparison



And as you have already given the text to search, so returning same value does not have any point, I think you will want to return its index right?



return index; //indested of return sellerNames[index];


And you function should return int:



static int SearchSeller(int[] sellerSales, string[] sellerNames, int sellerCount, ref string salesRep)
