Thread: String table and printing english equivalent

I have a question that is still boggling my mind. Since my lecturer never gives me the answer. So, I decided to ask the board about this. Sorry if the post is a bit messy. Im quite new. The question goes like this.


"Write a C program that creates a string table containing the English words for the digits 0 through 9. Using this table, allow the user to enter a digit and then have your program display the word equivalent. The program has to allow the user to enter again the digit if he enters something other than digits 0 through 9."

I have created a code. I don't know if I answered the question. Can anyone rectify me if I didn't?

Code:

#include <stdio.h>

void num_to_english(char* zero, char* one, char* two, char* three, char* four, 
                    char* five,char* six, char* seven, char* eight, char* nine);

void main()
{
     char a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,j,k;
     num_to_english(&a,&b,&c,&d,&e,&f,&g,&h,&j,&k);
     getchar();
}

void num_to_english(char* zero,char* one, char* two, char* three, char* four, 
                    char* five, char* six, char* seven, char* eight, char* nine)
{    
    int number,i;
    zero = "zero"; one = "one"; two = "two"; three = "three"; four = " four";
    five = "five"; six = "six"; seven = "seven"; eight = "eight"; nine = "nine";
    printf("Please insert a number from 0-9 : ");
    scanf("%d", &number);
    printf("The %d equivalent in english is : ",number);
    if(number>=0&&number<=9)
     {switch(number)
        {case 0:
         printf("%s", zero);
         break;
         case 1:
         printf("%s", one);
         break;
         case 2:
         printf("%s", two);
         break;
         case 3:
         printf("%s", three);
         break;
         case 4:
         printf("%s", four);
         break;
         case 5:
         printf("%s", five);
         break;
         case 6:
         printf("%s", six);
         break;
         case 7:
         printf("%s", seven);
         break;
         case 8:
         printf("%s", eight);
         break;
         default:
         printf("%s", nine);}}
    else
         {printf("is out of range. Please re-enter.\n\n");
         main();}
}

Thank you so much!!
