Thread: Help with programming code!!!

Hello Everyone .

I've been working on a code which scans up to 4 input numbers and prints them Horizontally on a "3*5" grid. My code works fine except that it prints vertically instead. I understand I'm supposed to use a 2- dimensional array to fix this problem but I don't know how to go about it.Can anyone please help ?

Thank you very much.

Here is my code so far:

Code:

Code:

#include<stdio.h>


int main( void )
{
   /* declearing the variables 'a' and 'digit' */
   
   int digit;
   int a;
   
   /* Setting up the array which will scan the variable 'digit' four times*/
   for(a=0;a<=3;a++)
   
{


   scanf("%d",&digit);


   if(digit == 1)
   {
      printf("\n\n  *\n  *\n  *\n  *\n  *");
   }


   else if(digit == 2)
   {
      printf("\n\n* * *\n    *\n* * *\n* \n* * *");
   }


   else if(digit == 3)
   {
      printf("\n\n* * *\n    *\n* * *\n    *\n* * *");
   }


   else if(digit == 4)
   {
      printf("\n\n*   *\n*   *\n* * *\n    *\n    *");
   }


   else if(digit == 5 ) 
   { 
      printf("\n\n* * *\n*   \n* * *\n    *\n* * *\n");
   }


   else if(digit == 6)
   {
      printf("\n\n* * *\n* \n* * *\n*   *\n* * *");
   }


   else if(digit == 7)
   {
      printf("\n\n* * *\n    *\n    *\n    *\n    *\n");
   }
   
   else if(digit == 8)
   {
      printf("\n\n* * *\n*   *\n* * *\n*   *\n* * *\n");
   }


   else if(digit == 9)
   {
      printf("\n\n* * *\n*   *\n* * *\n*   *\n* * *\n");
   }


   else if(digit == 0)
   {
      printf("\n\n* * *\n*   *\n*   *\n*   *\n* * *\n");
   } 
   else if (digit > 9)
   {
      printf("\n Invalid Number(s)!Please input four digits between 0 and 9 \n"); 
   }


} 




}

Step 1: Get all 4 input digits before outputting the large digits using stars "*"
Step 2: Do the large digit output
Out top row of all four digits
The do the next row.
repeat till all rows are done.

your "9" was messed up.

Code:

/* prog1.c */

#include<stdio.h>


int main( void )
{
   /* declearing the variables 'a' and 'digit' */
   
   int digit;
   int a;
   
   /* Setting up the array which will scan the variable 'digit' four times*/
   for(a=0;a<=3;a++)
   
{


   scanf("%d",&digit);

/*   printf("*\n\n\n\n"); */



   if(digit == 1)
   {
      printf("\n\n  *\n  *\n  *\n  *\n  *");
   }


   else if(digit == 2)
   {
      printf("\n\n* * *\n    *\n* * *\n* \n* * *");
   }


   else if(digit == 3)
   {
      printf("\n\n* * *\n    *\n* * *\n    *\n* * *");
   }


   else if(digit == 4)
   {
      printf("\n\n*   *\n*   *\n* * *\n    *\n    *");
   }


   else if(digit == 5 ) 
   { 
      printf("\n\n* * *\n*   \n* * *\n    *\n* * *\n");
   }


   else if(digit == 6)
   {
      printf("\n\n* * *\n* \n* * *\n*   *\n* * *");
   }


   else if(digit == 7)
   {
      printf("\n\n* * *\n    *\n    *\n    *\n    *\n");
   }
   
   else if(digit == 8)
   {
      printf("\n\n* * *\n*   *\n* * *\n*   *\n* * *\n");
   }


   else if(digit == 9)
   {
      printf("\n\n* * *\n*   *\n* * *\n    *\n    *\n");
   }


   else if(digit == 0)
   {
      printf("\n\n* * *\n*   *\n*   *\n*   *\n* * *\n");
   } 
   else if (digit > 9)
   {
      printf("\n Invalid Number(s)!Please input four digits between 0 and 9 \n"); 
   }
