Thread: How it happen...?

hai.. I am new one to C. the following code makes infinite loop ...!! how it happen..

Code:

main()
{
int x;
char y[10];
for(x=0;x<10;x++)
x=scanf("%c",&y[x]);
printf("%d",x);
}

Thank you..

What do you expect scanf() to return?

number of characters entered

But in this case it return garbage value.....

Code:

main()
{
int x,count;
char y[10];
for(x=0;x<10;x++)
count+=scanf("%c",&y[x]);
printf("%d",count);
}

Because count was never given an initial value.
