how to print an array like in this picture..

my code only prints the chars of the 2d array.
how to add this "frame" to each char
like in this picture:

Code:

void printBoard(char board[N][N],int size){
 
 for(index=0;index<size;index++){
     for(kndex=0;kndex<size;kndex++){
         printf("%c ",board[index][kndex]);
     }
     printf("\n");
 }

}//end printBoard

Think about how to print the
+-+-+-+-+
rows first, then see what develops

i tried this
i dont know how to put on each char +-+
??

Code:

void printBoard(char board[N][N],int size){
 
 for(index=0;index<size;index++){
     for(kndex=0;kndex<size;kndex++){
         printf("+-+");
         printf("|%c|",board[index][kndex]);
     }
     printf("\n");
 }

}//end printBoard

The code is a bit different but the principle is the same:

Code:

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {


        int  i, c, r;
        for(c=0; c < 5; c++){
                printf("+");
                for(r=0; r < 5; r++)
                        printf("--+");
                printf("\n|");
                for( i=0; i < 5; i++)
                        printf("? |");
                        printf("\n");
        }


return 0;
}

its not like the picture
above every char i need to have +-+ not +--+
and there needs to be a bottom line

i tried to change --+ to -+

its not working
??

Create two functions
printPlusMinus(int n);
Which prints "+-" n times, and a single + at the end

printRow(/*your turn*/);
Which prints "|" and a char from your map, followed by a single "|" at the end.

Code:

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {


        int  i, c, r, a;
        for(c=0; c < 5; c++){
                printf("+");
                for(r=0; r < 5; r++)
                        printf("-+");
                printf("\n|");
                for( i=0; i < 5; i++)
                        printf("?|");
                printf("\n");
        }

        printf("+");
        for(r=0; r < 5; r++)
               printf("-+");
        printf("\n");


return 0;
}

Here, problem fixed by adding another loop at the end. This can be done different, a bit shorter...but I'm currently in the rush.

Learn to use flowcharts and pseudo code!
You keep asking questions all about logic! However are you going to learn anything if you just keep asking questions without trying to solve it on your own?

I tried to program like this.
I put in every cell char '0'.
its not working i get errors
|9|warning: missing braces around initializer|
|9|warning: (near initialization for `board[0]')|
|28|error: syntax error at end of input|
It points to the last col of the function.

Where is the mistake in this code??

Code:

#include <stdio.h>


#define N 9

void printBoard(char board[N][N],int size);
int main(){
char board[N][N]={'0'};

printBoard(board,5);
return 0;
}

void printBoard(char board[N][N],int size){
int index,kndex;
 for(index=0;index<size;index++){
     for(kndex=0;kndex<size;kndex++){
         printf("+-+");

     }
     printf("\n");
     for(kndex=0;kndex<size;kndex++){

         printf("|%c|",board[index][kndex]);
     }

 }

I wrote it in another way.
but still i have this error pointing at the last col of the function.
|28|error: syntax error at end of input|

Code:

#include <stdio.h>


#define N 9

void printBoard(char board[N][N],int size);

int main(){
    int index,kndex;
char board[N][N];

for(index=0;index<N;index++){
     for(kndex=0;kndex<N;kndex++){
         board[index][kndex]='0';
     }
}

printBoard(board,5);

}

void printBoard(char board[N][N],int size){
int index,kndex;
 for(index=0;index<size;index++){
     for(kndex=0;kndex<size;kndex++){
         printf("+-+");

     }
     printf("\n");
     for(kndex=0;kndex<size;kndex++){

         printf("|%c|",board[index][kndex]);
     }

 }

I solved the errors but it shows different picture then it should to.

it should look like

where is the mistake?

Code:

#include <stdio.h>


#define N 9

void printBoard(char board[N][N],int size);

int main(){
    int index,kndex;
char board[N][N];

for(index=0;index<N;index++){
     for(kndex=0;kndex<N;kndex++){
         board[index][kndex]='0';
     }
}

printBoard(board,5);

}

void printBoard(char board[N][N],int size){
int index,kndex;
 for(index=0;index<size;index++){
     for(kndex=0;kndex<size;kndex++){
         printf("+-+");

     }
     printf("\n");
     for(kndex=0;kndex<size;kndex++){

         printf("|%c|",board[index][kndex]);
     }

 }
}

i solved it

Frankly, you are making it harder than it should be:

Code:

#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
    printf("%s",
        "+-+-+-+-+-+\n"
        "|?|?|?|?|?|\n"
        "+-+-+-+-+-+\n"
        "|?|?|?|?|?|\n"
        "+-+-+-+-+-+\n"
        "|?|?|?|?|?|\n"
        "+-+-+-+-+-+\n"
        "|?|0|?|?|?|\n"
        "+-+-+-+-+-+\n"
        "|?|?|?|?|?|\n"
        "+-+-+-+-+-+\n");
    return 0;
}

I expect that the above program does not actually do what you want, but that would be because you never precisely stated what you were really trying to do.

i solved it
its working
is there an error?

Code:

void printBoard(char board[N][N],int size){
int index,kndex;
 for(index=0;index<size;index++){
     for(kndex=0;kndex<size;kndex++){
         printf("+-+");

     }
     printf("\n");
     for(kndex=0;kndex<size;kndex++){

         printf("|%c|",board[index][kndex]);
     }
     printf("\n");

 }
  for(kndex=0;kndex<size;kndex++){
         printf("+-+");

     }
}

Frankly, you are making it harder than it should be:

Good one :-)

and it also replies to:
