Need some help:(

Code:

for(;;)
   {
       if(gender =='F')
       {
          Sleep(2000);
          system("cls"); //Old man says players gender
          size=strlen(oldman1); 
          for(x=0;x<size;x++) 
          {   
            Sleep(50);  
            printf("%c",oldman1[x]);
            
          }
           size=strlen(daughter);
            for(x=0;x<size;x++)          
            {
                printf("%c",daughter[x]);
                Sleep(50);                 
            }  
            break;                                     
       }
       else if(gender =='M')
       {
          Sleep(2000);
          system("cls"); //Old man says players gender
          size=strlen(oldman1); 
          for(x=0;x<size;x++) 
          {   
             Sleep(50);  
             printf("%c",oldman1[x]);
            
          }
          size=strlen(son);
            for(x=0;x<size;x++)          
            {
                printf("%c",son[x]);
                Sleep(50);                 
            } 
            break;
       }
   }
  size=strlen(oldman2); 
  for(x=0;x<size;x++) 
  {   
       Sleep(50);  
       printf("%c",oldman2[x]); 
  }

For some reason it only says the first 3 letters on the oldman char string and goes to the next one

Nvm fixed

Well there areas of code not posted which could cause that. For example you are using the length of 'oldman1' to run your loop, at the time the loop is ran, what is the value of 'oldman1'...?

Code:

          size=strlen(oldman1); 
          for(x=0;x<size;x++) 
          {   
            Sleep(50);  
            printf("%c",oldman1[x]);
          }

Code:

            size=strlen(daughter);
            for(x=0;x<size;x++)          
            {
                printf("%c",daughter[x]);
                Sleep(50);                 
            }

Code:

          size=strlen(oldman1); 
          for(x=0;x<size;x++) 
          {   
             Sleep(50);  
             printf("%c",oldman1[x]);
          }

Code:

            size=strlen(son);
            for(x=0;x<size;x++)          
            {
                printf("%c",son[x]);
                Sleep(50);                 
            }

Code:

  size=strlen(oldman2); 
  for(x=0;x<size;x++) 
  {   
       Sleep(50);  
       printf("%c",oldman2[x]); 
  }

Seriously?! O_o

Don't you think that just maybe that deserves a function unto itself? O_o

Even something casually dangerous would be better than writing nearly the same thing over and over.

Soma

Code:

int slowprintf
(
   unsigned int msdelay_f,
   const char * format_f,
   ...
)
{
   char message_buffer[1024];
   char * character = message_buffer;
   int characters_written;
   va_list vargs;
   if(0 == format_f)
   {
      return(-1);
   }
   va_start(vargs, format_f);
   characters_written = vsprintf(message_buffer, format_f, vargs);
   if(0 < characters_written)
   {
      while(0 != *character)
      {
         fputc(*character, stdout);
         mydelay(msdelay_f);
         ++character;
      }
   }
   va_end(vargs);
   return(characters_written);
}

And why is this on C++?
