Read Array pro!!Plz help!!

Hi all, i got trouble reading array file

sample file to be read:

---------------------------------
START 3
. 000 2 100 . 000 . 000
0 100 1 050 . 000 . 000
. 000 . 000 . 000 . 000
. 000 . 000 . 000 . 000
END
START 2
. 000 2 100 . 000 . 000
0 100 1 050 . 000 . 000
. 000 . 000 . 000 . 000
. 000 . 000 . 000 . 000
END
----------------------------------
The problem is when I try to read char, I just can get space
it is weird and hope somebody can help me out
thanx in advance!!

my code:

Code:

int main()
{
  char label[6];                     //String to read in the START/IN label
  char descriptor;                          //Char to read in the descriptor
  int descriptorVal;                        //Int to read in the descriptor's value
  int numTurns;                             //Number of turns read from the input file 
  int numRows;                              //Number of rows in the matrix
  int numCols;                              //Number of columns in the matrix
  int tempNumCols;                          //Copy of 'numCols' 
  char descriptorArray[MAXDIM][MAXDIM];  //Matrix to hold the descriptor map
  int valueArray[MAXDIM][MAXDIM];           //Matrix to hold the descriptor values
  int x, y, index;
  FILE *infile;

  infile = fopen("a.dat","r");
	if (infile == NULL)
	{
			printf("Error. File does not exist.\n"
 					"Terminating Program.\n\n\n");
	}
	else
	{
		// Gather the input and play the game as long as there is input to process: 
		while(fscanf(infile, "%s", &label) != EOF && !strcmp(label, "START"))  
		{
			// Reinitialize re-used variables to allow them to be re-used if necessary:
			numRows = 0;
			numCols = 0;
			tempNumCols = 0;

			// Reinitalize the arrays to allow them to be re-used if necessary:
			for(x = 0; x < MAXDIM; x++)
				for(y = 0; y < MAXDIM; y++)
				{
					descriptorArray[x][y] = '\0';
					valueArray[x][y] = 0;
				}

			// Get the number of turns:
			fscanf(infile, "%d", &numTurns);
	
			// Get the map, partitioning the descriptor and value into separate arrays:
			for(index = 0; index < MAXDIM; index++)
			{		
        //As long as we are not at the end, get the next descriptor/value pair:
				while(!foundEND(infile))
				{
				//If we found a descriptor/value pair, store them in the appropriate arrays
					if(fscanf(infile, "%c ", &descriptor) && fscanf(infile, "%d ", &descriptorVal)) 
					{  
						descriptorArray[numRows][tempNumCols] = descriptor;
						valueArray[numRows][tempNumCols] = descriptorVal;

						numCols++;
						tempNumCols++;
          printf("%c %d",descriptor, descriptorVal);
              //If we've come to the end of the line, break from the loop:
						if(foundEOL(infile))
							break;
					}
					
				}

        //Increment the number of rows because we are at the end of the row:
				numRows++;
				  
        //IF we are not at the end of the data set, restart the loop: 
				if(!foundEND(infile))
				{    
					index = 0;
					tempNumCols = 0;
				}
        //ELSE we are at the end of the data set, so break out: 
				else  break; 
			
			} 
     //Calculate the number of columns of the matrix:
			numCols = numCols / numRows;

     //Ensure that the dimensions of the map are valid:
			if((numRows > 20) || (numCols > 20))
			{
				printf("Error:  The map is too large!\n");
				return 1;
			}
			fscanf(infile, "%s", label);
		}
	}
	fclose(infile);
  return 0;
}

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

int foundEND(FILE *in)
{
  char endString[4] = "\0";
  fscanf(in, "%s", &endString);
  
  if(!strcmp(endString, "END")) 
     return 1;   

  else
  {
     return 0;
  }
}

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

int foundEOL(FILE *in)
{
	char letter;
	int spaces = 0,
		condition = 0, i = 0, k;



	while (spaces == 0)
	{
		letter = fgetc(in);
		if ( letter != ' ' )
				spaces = 1; 
	}

	if ('\n' == letter)
		condition = MY_EOL;
	else
	{

	  while (!isspace(letter) )
	  {
	    letter = fgetc(in);
	    if (letter == EOF)
	    {
		condition = MY_EOF;
	    }
	  }
	
	}
	  if (letter == '\n')
		condition = MY_EOL;
	return condition;
}

No body helps....?

That's because a 'space' is a 'char'.

Quzah.
