[yukapuka]

hi i am trying to get t his to work, but i dont know why it is not working, what is the problem with this?

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

#define SIZE 3

int main(int argc, char** argv) {
    
    int board[SIZE][SIZE];
    int i,j;
    
    for(i=0;i<SIZE;i++)
        for(j=0;j<SIZE;j++)
            scanf("%d",&board[i][j]);
    
    return (EXIT_SUCCESS);
}

"it is not working" is virtually useless information. What do you expect it to do? What is it actually doing?

sorry i got it to work
i just had to use brackets in the second for loop

and what i was trying to get it to do was to put a character into each array unit

In that case, you should be looping to (SIZE-1)

The loops (as written) are fine.

So exactly what are you typing in?

If you're typing in say hello, then it isn't going to work - you're reading in integers with the %d format.

Now if you type in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 you should be fine.

That's what the for-loop condition i < SIZE does.

Everything looks perfectly correct with the code as I see it right now (assuming no further edits after I post this).

Sorry everyone, I misread the statement
