    Talking Path problems

    I'm in the middle of implementing ps, except I have a problem with the concatenation of some of my paths. It's supposed to look like this

    /proc/xxx/stat

    Where xxx is the process id, instead I get this

    /proc/xxx/xxx/stat

    Code:
    /*This program will scan through a directory
     if it finds subdirectories within it, it will
     check if the name of the directory is a digit
     if it is it will return 1, otherwise a 0. Based
     upon the return value, the program will print the
     filename which was matched i.e. 1 was returned. */
