Finding a hyphen in an array.

[omnificient]

I'm trying to find out how to read a hyphen from an array. I've got the following set up:

#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
	char data[5];
	int a = 0;
	puts("Enter: ");
	fgets(data, 5, stdin);
	for (;a < 5 ; a++)
	{
		if (data[a] = '-')
		{
			printf("A - was found!\n");
		}
	}
	return 0;
}

It doesn't work however. I get the following output:

pim@zwart:~/C$ ./a-b
Enter:
abcde
A - was found!
A - was found!
A - was found!
A - was found!
A - was found!

Obviously the if statement isn't working properly. I wonder why this is the case tough. It's checking for a characters in a character array.

Anyone has any thoughts on this?

Thank You.
