Thread: snake game segmentation fault

Edit: Removed my post because of a hateful poster below.
come on! beat my head with 2x4????? Does he even know what programming is and what this forum is for? And why people use these boards? BECAUSE THEY NEED "HELP" WITH THEIR CODE and becasue they are STILL LEARNING. The below poster should be banned for yelling at people because they dont post their "entire" code//go figure why the poster wants to "look" at all other person's full code. This cboard is not useful for an average programmer at all :X

If you're not getting any compiler warnings, then get a better compiler.
If you're getting warnings, but ignoring them, beat yourself about the head with a 2x4

You're seriously screwed up over s_game / g_game

And for this, you need to learn about operator precedence.
Normally, you write this here - note the extra ( )
if ( (g_game= fopen(file_name, "r")) == NULL)

Look, unless you're going to copy/paste DIRECTLY from your IDE/text editor, there isn't a lot of point bothering to post at all.

Likewise, just saying "it doesn't work" adds 0% information as well.
