Thread: CSC Basics - Final Program Problems

Hello! This is my first time posting a thread in this site. I, along with most of my class, am having troubles with this program. We're only in the first class of our Computer Science major. My current program "runs" but prints a blank output file. Please help! My comrades and I are stressing BIG TIME because of finals! Thanks a ton!

The code is as follows:

 
//Salaries.java
 
//This program will compute the gross wages for each employee. It will also
//determine the highest and lowest for the week's salary, the total weekly payroll,
//the average salary for the week, and the total amount the company has to pay
//in social security taxes. In addition, the program will count the employees
//that earn more than $500.00 by the end of the week.

EDIT---
When it runs, it creates the file and that's it. Just a blank file, no bytes, no code. Here's the extra.

Salaries.data
10 5
20 10
40 10
41 10
Transaction.data
1 40 20
3 415.00
2 415.00
3 415.00


Output Based on Above Input:
The list of employees' gross wages follows:

50.00 200.00 400.00 415.00

Total Wages: $ 1065.00
Average Wage: $ 266.25

The largest salary is $ 415.00 and is located at index 3
The smallest salary is $ 50.00 and is located at index 0
Employee wihtholdings for social security taxes is $ 66.03

The company matching amount for social security taxes is 66.03
--------
Total 132.06

The number of employees earning over $500 this week is 0
800.00 was added to the array.
415.00 was found at index 3.
415.00 was removed from the array.
415.00 was not found in the array.

50.00 200.00 400.00 800.00

Thanks! Like I said, I just joined and don't know the tags involved yet!

Actually, I have to end execution with CTRL+C. It seems like I have an endless loop, but I can't see one. No errors messages at all, not even with compiling.
