Thread: C Programming Pascals Triangle

I have to write a program to print pascals triangle and stores it in a pointer to a pointer , which I am not entirely sure how to do. I also have to write the file and read it, then create a binary file. Assignment is attached. I am not the best with programming and especially with pointers. I will post my code below.

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>


void writePascalTriangle(char *fileName, int heightOfTriangle, int **triangle)
{
    FILE *fp;
    fp=fopen("writePascalTriangle.txt", "w");
    fclose(fp);
}


void readPascalTriangle(char *fileName, int *heightOfTriangle, int **triangle)
{
    FILE *fp2;
    fp2=fopen("writePascalTriangle.txt", "r");
    fclose(fp2);


}


int **getPascalTriangle(int n)
{
   int c;
   int **result = 1;


   for( c = 1 ; c <= n ; c++ )
         result = &result*c;


   return ( &result );
}




int main()
{
   int i, n, r;


   printf("Enter the number of rows you wish to see in pascal triangle\n");
   scanf("%d",&r);


   for ( i = 0; i < r; i++ )
   {
      for ( n = 0; n<= ( r - i - 2 ); n++ )
         printf(" ");


      for( n = 0; n <= i; n++ )


         printf("%d ", getPascalTriangle(i)/(getPascalTriangle(n)*getPascalTriangle(i-n)));


      printf("\n");
   }


   return (0);
}

I am just not entirely sure how to store the value of the getPascalsTriangle in a pointer to a pointer? As in the other thread he does not store it in a pointer.

Yes i understand, I did not mean to type that in this forum.
