Thread: Trouble Printing out Array

I was able to have the user enter in their desired letter but I have a problem with printing out the arrays. Here is what I have:

Code:

    for(i=0; i<SIZE; i++)
    {
    StoreUserLetter[i]=GetGuess();
    }
    printf("%c", StoreUserLetter[i]);

The variable SIZE is to keep the user from entering a certain amount of character if anyone is curious.
and here is the user defined function:

Code:

char GetGuess()
{
    char guessofuser;
    printf("Enter your guess: ");
    scanf(" %c", &guessofuser);
    return guessofuser;
}

What could be wrong? It does not print out anything.

Just 5 times as a test, I already did #define SIZE 5.

It should display all 5 characters but it doesn't; instead it displays a hieroglyphic like symbol.

You're printing the subscript of an array when the loop has exited (i >= SIZE) now.

Use another loop.

Code:

    for(i=0; i<SIZE; i++)
    {
    StoreUserLetter[i]=GetGuess();
    }

    printf("You guessed:");
    for(i=0; i<SIZE; i++)
    {
    printf("%c", StoreUserLetter[i]);
    }
    printf("\n");

You might try reading the answers already posted, for starters. Salem's last post has already answered this.
