I'm quite a novice with c++ so this is probably more a language
issue than a compiler/system one but I've been writing a program 
and have just included some multidimensional arrays that make
for a strange effect that I can't explain.

As the program currently stands it looks i outline like this

int main() 
{

cout << " currently here\n";

const int xmax=1200;
const int tmax=51;

double price[tmax][xmax+1];
double reslevel[tmax][xmax+1];

// lots of code that doesn't involve price or reslevel

return 0;

}

This compiles and when run doesn't print anything.
If I comment out the two lines dimensioning the multi-dim
arrays, it compiles and runs fine. 
If I change the data type of the arrays to int or float, 
it compiles OK and runs fine.

This seems a bit bizarre to me, but as I say, I'm not experienced
with C++.

Any ideas?

Many thanks,
Tom
