compiler states invalid array assignment on lines 2-8, the function is fineCode:dyofwk = get_julian_day(1, month, year); if (dyofwk % 7 == 0) week = "Monday"; else if (dyofwk % 7 == 1) week = "Tuesday"; else if (dyofwk % 7 == 2) week = "Wednesday"; else if (dyofwk % 7 == 3) week = "Thursday"; else if (dyofwk % 7 == 4) week = "Friday"; else if (dyofwk % 7 == 5) week = "Saturday"; else if (dyofwk % 7 == 6) week = "Sunday";
Look up strcpy; you can NOT assign c-string in C.

is there any way to do this without using string.h?
Deprecated conversion from string to char arrayCode:if (dyofwk % 7 == 0) strcpy("Monday",week); else if (dyofwk % 7 == 1) strcpy("Tuesday",week); else if (dyofwk % 7 == 2) strcpy("Wednesday",week); else if (dyofwk % 7 == 3) strcpy("Thursday",week); else if (dyofwk % 7 == 4) strcpy("Friday",week); else if (dyofwk % 7 == 5) strcpy("Saturday",week); else if (dyofwk % 7 == 6) strcpy("Sunday",week);
You can try making "week" a const char pointer instead of an array.
Just saw your code in the above post, you got the arguments to strcpy switched around. You cannot do it the way you were attempting. You were trying to copy data from week and into a string literal.

Thank you both for helping me, it is not having compiler errors for that.
