help please

This is my first game here is what I have so far.

Code:

---

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

void playgame(void);

int main()
{
  int input;

  printf("1. Play Game\n");
  printf("2. quit\n");
  scanf("%d", &input);

  switch (input)
  {
    case 1: playgame();
            break;
    case 2:
            return 0;
    default:
      printf("Bad input quiting...");
      system("pause");
  }

  return 0;
}

void playgame(void)
{
 char input[20];
 printf("You see a huge mansion, it speaks to in some strange way. Almost as if it were\ncalling you.\n");
 printf("north\n");
  scanf("%s", &input);
  if (input = "north")
  {
  printf("good\n");
  system("pause");
  }
}

When I compile it I get the error "incompatible types in assignment". Thanks in advance for what ever help you may offer.

if (input = "north")

This line is no good. string compares don't work that way in C.

if(!strcmp(input,"north"))

would work however.

plus this:

scanf("%s", &input);

you don't want the address of "input". You want

scanf("%s",input);

Thanks alot

and for the future, remember it is == in conditional statements... = assigns the value to the variable, == checks if they are equal...
