    Register variable

    I have an problem with my code, it has to read the registers of the microcontroller and then store it in ddr
    Code:
    char leesOutput( char nummer )
    {
      unsigned char ddr[4];
      char output = 0;
      /*DDR Variable with Registers*/
      switch( nummer )
      {
      case 1: // Out 1
        output = ( ddr[ 0 ] >> 0 ) & 0x01;
        break;
      case 2: // Out 2
        output = ( ddr[ 0 ] >> 1 ) & 0x01;
        break;
      case 3: // Out 3
        output = ( ddr[ 0 ] >> 2 ) & 0x01;
        break;
      case 4: // Out 4
        output = ( ddr[ 0 ] >> 3 ) & 0x01;
        break;
      case 5: // Out 5
        output = ( ddr[ 0 ] >> 4 ) & 0x01;
        break;
      case 6: // Out 6
        output = ( ddr[ 0 ] >> 5 ) & 0x01;
        break;
      case 7: // Out 7
        output = ( ddr[ 0 ] >> 6 ) & 0x01;
        break;
      case 8: // Out 8
        output = ( ddr[ 0 ] >> 7 ) & 0x01;
        break;
      case 9: // Out 9
        output = ( ddr[ 2 ] >> 7 ) & 0x01;
        break;
      case 10: // Out 10
        output = ( ddr[ 2 ] >> 6 ) & 0x01;
        break;
      case 11: // Out 11
        output = ( ddr[ 2 ] >> 5 ) & 0x01;
        break;
      case 12: // Out 12
        output = ( ddr[ 2 ] >> 4 ) & 0x01;
        break;
      }
      return output;
    }
    The place of the code is indicated with bold lettertype. I have been looking in the datasheet of the Microcontroller and I couldn't find anything. Microcontroller = Fujitsu MB90495 Family

    Which 'registers' are you talking about?
    Being a micro controller, there's all sorts of things which might be called 'a register'.
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

    Compilers can produce warnings - make the compiler programmers happy: Use them!
