Thread: resetting arrays

I'm getting a weird result in the attached program. Think it has something to do with the array or the get_word function. When I hit 'y' at the end to repeat it skip most of the program down to where it says "Congratulations".

How do you reset an array to nothing? Do you need to do this everytime you read in a string using scanf?

Much appreciate any help I could get.
Thanx.

Not read your program but in C you can do it this way

eg.

/* Simple array clearing program */

#include <stdio.h>
#define maxchar 10;

main ()
{

int i;
char my_string [maxchar];

for (i = 0; i <= (maxchar-1); i++)
my_string [i] = NULL;

}


This is required each time you use the array otherwise any text you try to print will contain text at the end from previous uses.
